Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Manual and activator-assisted adjustments realign the spine to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance nervous system function. Our techniques address disc issues, posture problems, and musculoskeletal imbalances. Patients experience relief from back pain, headaches, and sciatica through targeted corrections tailored to individual anatomy and health history.
DOT Physical Exams
FMCSA-compliant examinations ensure commercial drivers meet federal health standards. Conducted efficiently in 30-45 minutes, these exams assess vision, hearing, cardiovascular health, and physical fitness. We provide certification documentation and guidance for drivers needing follow-up care to maintain compliance and road safety.
Corrective Exercises
Customized exercise programs target muscle imbalances and postural deficiencies. Patients learn stretches and strengthening routines to complement adjustments, prevent re-injury, and accelerate recovery. Our approach integrates movement analysis to address conditions like runner's knee, tennis elbow, and chronic back strain.
Nutritional Counseling
Personalized nutrition guidance reduces inflammation and supports musculoskeletal health. We develop anti-inflammatory diets, recommend supplements for joint strength, and provide dietary strategies to enhance recovery from injuries. Education focuses on whole foods that complement chiropractic treatment outcomes.
Massage Therapy
Therapeutic massage techniques relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and reduce stress. Sessions target areas affected by poor posture, sports injuries, or repetitive strain. Combined with chiropractic care, massage therapy enhances pain relief and promotes faster healing of soft tissue injuries.

Great facility, I have been going there for years. Everyone there has helped me to heal and get healthy. It's a great place for DOT physicals and a great place to get a therapeutic massage. They have really helped me with my shoulders and back. A great positive atmosphere.

I have been going there for years now, and within that time I have never had a bad experience. Not only is the chiropractor intelligent, but he will do whatever he can to make sure any stiffness and pain is relieved. He also is willing to show you any excersizes to stretch the muscles. Overall the office is friendly, well kept, and trustworthy. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Why settle for assistants when you can get the real thing? I was suffering with back pain and have seen several chiropractors. Usually you get placed in a room where an assistant does most of the alleged treatment. If you are looking for a Chiropractor truly gives you specialized treatment, without the less experienced assistants, go to Dr. VanTholen.

Dr. Robert has been my "go to" Chiropractor for the past 15 years and I highly recommend his practice. Over the years I have had a torn rotator cuff, lower back pain, and a neck injury. All of these were healed back to 100% do to Dr. Robert's professional treatment. You can expect only the best at Body Wellness Chiropractic. -Craig Vroom
