Staff
Judy Norton
Since 1988 I have been married to Dr. Matthew Norton. As a homemaker and mother of four, I have chosen to raise our children in a holistic, wellness model, which includes teaching them the importance of building strong immune systems. To accomplish that and create overall health they’ve received regular chiropractic care, no vaccines, healthy diets, and quality supplementation. There has been no reliance on prescription or over the counter drugs.
We are now influencing the next generation with these principles through our new granddaughter Isla. She was born in December 2008 and we’re thrilled to be grandparents.
I have also been a business partner with my husband at Norton Chiropractic Wellness Center. I worked in the office full time for five years, but have continued to manage it over the last seven. I’ve been the beneficiary of his knowledge and his most ardent fan.
In 2005, I found Usana Health Sciences while on a personal search for healthy skincare products without chemical preservatives. We sorted through many health companies while doing our research en route to this decision. This business has become my passion.
Usana provides us with a complete pharmaceutical-grade line of supplementation, low-glycemic foods, and self-preserved skincare that we consume ourselves and recommend to our patients with pride and total trust. In the process I’ve become a wellness coach, teaching in the office and community and advising patients one-on-one on how to navigate the buyer-beware, wellness product marketplace.

Emmy McFarland
Emmy (“like the awards”) is our high energy bundle of optimism and enthusiasm exam tech and patient assistant. She grew up in small town Iowa on a buffalo ranch where she graduated from the University of Iowa and then went to massage therapy school. She headed west to California on a whim, having no idea the positive life changes that were soon to come in Fresno through her work at Norton Chiropractic and the related friendships she’d develop, including an important one with her co-worker Sheri.
She has also been a reliable, loyal, and committed member of our team since joining us in April of 2004. Emmy is deeply involved in her church, inspiring and mentoring many younger women with her story of overcoming life’s obstacles, and has more friends than she knows what to do with. They have to take a number to get time with her I think. We’ve enjoyed watching her grow and mature before our eyes and have always appreciated her loving heart and care for people. She loves chiropractic and is an advocate of our work and passionate mission wherever she goes. Thank you Emmy!
Emmy has been through years of advanced chiropractic assistant training and seminar programs and is incredibly qualified to serve and care for you.
