Meet Dr. Erin Jacobs Stagner
With a mom who was a chiropractor, Dr. J grew up working in the office. She was born and raised in the small town of Tippo, north of our town. She has fond memories growing up with her brother and family in the country. A field of cotton blanketed their front yard. Her father worked his way up into management at Batesville Casket Company. With hard-working parents, Dr. J learned early on the advantages of diligence, starting college at age 16.

There’s more to health than just the physical. There are so many layers: emotional, spiritual and more. I want to help people realize that they can have it all.
Discovering the Power of Chiropractic for Pregnancy
While in school, Dr. J saw a patient in the clinic who had tried acupuncture, medication and other alternative therapies for her low back pain. What the woman didn’t tell Dr. J was that she had been trying to get pregnant and had several miscarriages. After about six months of care, the woman came in and said that after struggling for so long, she was finally pregnant. Chiropractic was the only thing she’d been doing differently, and she attributed her pregnancy to being under care. Dr. J is passionate about caring for pregnant women and is certified in the Webster Technique.
To stay up to date on the latest in the health and be involved in our community, Dr. J is a member of several organizations:
- Mississippi Chiropractic Association
- Logan College Alumni Association
- Member, College Drive Seventh Day Adventist Church
- Member, Greenwood Chorale, 2017-present
Enjoying an Active Life
Dr. J and her husband, Randy, live in our community. They met on a theatre set. It was Dr. J’s first time directing a play at Greenwood Little Theatre. They have three daughters: Maggie, Abbie and Lydia. Maggie goes to JZ George, Abbie goes to the Carroll Academy and Lydia is homeschooled. Their family is rounded out by their Great Danes, Zeus and George. As a family, they love to go outside for walks or bike rides. Dr. J is an avid reader, chef, traveler, teacher, friend, mom, wife and healer. “I believe that life should be experienced as an active participant. It’s not a spectator sport.”
