Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments correct spinal misalignments to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance nervous system function. This service uses controlled thrusts to realign vertebrae, alleviating discomfort from subluxations. Patients benefit from improved range of motion and long-term wellness through regular adjustments.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy targets muscle tension and promotes relaxation by manipulating soft tissues. It reduces stress, alleviates pain, and improves circulation through techniques like deep-tissue work and trigger-point therapy. Ideal for patients recovering from injuries or managing chronic conditions.
Nutritional Consultations
Nutritional consultations provide personalized dietary advice to support overall health and wellness. We address digestive issues, weight management, and nutrient deficiencies through tailored meal plans and supplement recommendations. This service complements chiropractic care for holistic healing.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses sound waves to penetrate deep tissues, reducing inflammation and promoting healing. It relieves stiffness, swelling, and pain while enhancing circulation for faster recovery. This non-invasive option is effective for muscle strains and joint discomfort.
Pre/Postnatal Chiropractic
Pre/postnatal chiropractic care addresses musculoskeletal changes during pregnancy. Gentle adjustments alleviate back pain, improve posture, and support pelvic alignment for easier delivery. Postnatal care aids recovery and restores spinal health after childbirth.

Dr. Merritt is amazing. I have been going to see him for nine years. He has helped me with not only my back issues but also my health in general. I was having high blood pressure problems at 38 years old was very frustrated to the point of depression and fear of having a heart attack which would mean leaving my three girls behind. Dr. Merritt took the time to help me find the cause of my High BP gave me some supplements, which helped, not just throw pills at me like the usual doctors end up doing.
Now I feel great! He treats my whole family and they all love him. He really cares about his patients and treats them like family. To top it off Michelle at the front desk is so helpful and friendly. She always has a beautiful smile on her face when you walk in the door. Thank you Dr. Merritt and Michelle for an amazing nine years! I don't know where I would be if I didn't find you. Never leave please unless you relocate to grove city where I live.

Dr. Merritt and Michelle are a seamless unit, working hard every visit to get you feeling your best self. Dr. Merritt uses a variety of tools and techniques, while taking quantitative (as well as qualitative) measures along the way to ensure progress. It's easy to schedule and get in, even last minute - Michelle does her very best to work with your schedule and needs. You do sometimes end up waiting a while past your appointment time, but that's pretty unavoidable at any doctor's office! They are also very kind about me needing to bring my toddler with me sometimes, and even give her snacks and things to do! I am very grateful for Dr. Merritt!

After years of medicine and physical therapy with no relief, my trainer recommended Dr. Merritt. From a nervous skeptic with no hope for relief, Dr. Merritt took the time to listen to understand what was occurring. He has helped me not only help find pain relief from 3 pinched nerves, he helped me get off all my medications as well lose weight again all in 3 months. Michelle immediately makes you feel welcome and is wonderful at answering questions to understand the process. Max is the topping on the cake helping you to forget your worries for a moment. Dr. Merritt and his team made this hopeless skeptic a hopeful believer and am feeling the best I have in years. Thank you!

Dr. Merritt is excellent at what he does. Professional, excellent bedside manner, and he has drastically minimized my pain. He is wonderful at educating you and supporting you to take steps out of the office to improve your issues. He is always going to conferences to learn and grow and stays on the cutting edge of his industry. He came highly recommended from a couple of friends and I haven't been disappointed. If you are in need of a chiropractor that understands your needs from a holistic perspective and want someone who genuinely cares, schedule a visit to Dr. Merritt.

I have been visiting chiropractors for almost 20 years and Dr. Merritt is the one that has lead me to living as pain free as I can. I first started seeing Dr. Merritt for chronic headaches and after treatment I continue to see him for regular adjustments. I actually visited Dr. Merritt almost weekly during my pregnancy and his treatment helped tremendously! My husband and children also see Dr. Merritt because we believe in him and know he cares about us.

Dr. Merritt is great! He took thr time to understand what kind of pain I was in and came up with a plan to get me back to 100%! I have been struggling for a while now and have seen a number of doctors for my back issues. Dr. Merritt always makes sure I am making progress and wants me to be happy with that progress! His office manager Michelle is also always so pleasant and welcoming. I highly recommend coming in for a visit to see what they can do for you!
