NUCCA Spinal Correction
NUCCA spinal correction precisely adjusts the upper cervical spine, alleviating pain and restoring body balance without popping or twisting. This gentle, non-invasive technique improves blood flow, muscle relaxation, and self-healing. Ideal for chronic pain, migraines, and posture issues, it offers immediate relief and long-term wellness benefits for all ages.
Massage Therapy
Customized massage therapy targets muscle tension, injuries, and chronic pain using techniques like myofascial release. Our licensed therapists tailor sessions to address specific health goals, enhancing recovery and reducing stress. Combining with chiropractic care amplifies pain relief and mobility improvements, supporting holistic well-being through hands-on, patient-centered treatment.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine integrates nutritional counseling and lifestyle coaching to address root causes of chronic conditions. We analyze how environmental factors affect your immune, digestive, and hormonal systems. Personalized programs, including detoxification and the OPTAVIA weight-loss plan, promote sustainable health improvements, blending science with natural, preventive care for lasting results.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial release targets tightened fascia causing pain and restricted movement. This technique alleviates conditions like fibromyalgia, sciatica, and TMJ by applying sustained pressure to trigger points. Our therapists combine it with NUCCA corrections to enhance mobility and reduce chronic pain, offering a drug-free solution for injuries and postural imbalances.
Corrective Exercises
Tailored corrective exercises strengthen muscles and stabilize spinal corrections, enhancing treatment effectiveness by 30-40%. Supervised sessions teach proper form, with routines designed for home practice. These exercises prevent recurring pain, improve posture, and support recovery from injuries, forming a critical part of our phased care approach for sustained wellness.

I don't have much experience with chiropractors outside of this one, but I know that Dr. Maffit puts in the extra time to make sure I understand the purpose behind his practice. While he's working with patients, he will keep them engaged with conversation and is friendly and willing to help with problems beyond just the spine. Office is well cleaned, the tables are sanitized between patients, and the location is right off of a major road. Conclusion: If you're looking for a chiropractor in the St. Louis, Dr. Maffit is your guy.

We have been going to Dr. Chris Maffit since he opened his practice in 2001. He is incredibly knowledgeable and has a passion for helping his patients become healthier. and to stay healthy. He truly cares for each patient and their individual needs. He has helped me with back, shoulder, neck and hip pain over the last 20 years. His upper cervical care is gentle and extremely effective. He has certainly helped me maintain an active lifestyle!

Dr. Chris is awesome at what he does! If you suffer from back and neck pain and don't like the idea of the normal cracking and popping that's normally associated with Chiropractors, you need to check him out!

I was referred to DSC by my partner who received care here several years ago. I started coming to DSC mid/late 2019, and have never been happier about the care I have received thus far. Dr. Maffit is so wonderful! He is personable, answers all of my questions thoroughly and comprehensively, is super transparent, and really takes his time in getting to know his patients. He is a wonderful human being!

I frequented a Gonstead chiropractor's treatment for about 3 years, but I think that I have found more relief and happiness with my body in the last several months under the meticulous care of Dr. Maffit. You will not be disappointed with the care you receive from DSC - totally affordable with the BEST care!

Dr. Chris is so knowledgeable! He is good with advice on how to eat healthier and can recommend beneficial supplements! i was having headaches and a stiff neck a few months back and had gone to my primary care, they didn't have a clue. Dr Chris was able to get me up and going again without the headaches and neck stifness. i can tell when things are getiing out of alignment and time to go back for a visit or 2!
