Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on restoring spinal function and nervous system health through precise adjustments. We address conditions like back pain, headaches, and sciatica by correcting subluxations that interfere with nerve signals. Patients benefit from improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced overall wellness through our tailored treatment plans.
Pregnancy Chiropractic
Specialized chiropractic care for expectant mothers helps alleviate pregnancy-related discomforts while supporting optimal fetal positioning. Using the Webster Technique, we balance the pelvis to reduce labor complications and promote natural childbirth. Regular adjustments improve spinal alignment, ease back strain, and enhance nervous system function during pregnancy.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic adjustments for infants and children address birth trauma, developmental issues, and common childhood ailments. Our care supports proper nervous system development, improving sleep patterns, digestion, and immune function. Early intervention helps prevent future musculoskeletal problems and promotes healthy growth from birth.
Auto Accident Care
Post-accident chiropractic care addresses whiplash, neck pain, and soft tissue injuries through targeted adjustments and rehabilitation. We create personalized recovery plans to restore mobility and prevent chronic pain after collisions. Our documentation and insurance coordination ensure comprehensive care for patients recovering from vehicle-related trauma.
Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy relieves pressure on intervertebral discs to treat herniations, sciatica, and degenerative disc disease. This gentle traction-based treatment creates space for discs to rehydrate and heal, offering an effective alternative to back surgery for many patients seeking lasting pain relief.

Questions
Is chiropractic care safe during pregnancy?
Yes, our prenatal adjustments use gentle techniques specifically adapted for expectant mothers. We avoid X-rays during pregnancy and focus on maintaining proper pelvic alignment to support comfortable delivery.
Can children benefit from chiropractic care?
Absolutely. Our pediatric adjustments use light pressure to address birth trauma, developmental issues, and common childhood ailments. Many parents report improved sleep, digestion, and immune function in their children after starting care.
Do you accept insurance?
While many plans cover chiropractic services, we offer affordable self-pay options that often provide better value than insurance-based care. Our team can help verify your coverage details during your initial consultation.

We address back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, auto accident injuries, and pediatric developmental issues. Our care also supports overall wellness by improving nervous system function and posture.

Treatment frequency depends on your condition. Initial phases may require 2-3 visits weekly, transitioning to maintenance visits as your health improves. We create personalized care plans based on your specific needs.

The staff here are passionate and incredible. Dr B has been a HUGE blessing to me. My lower back specifically has caused me much grief in these last few years and I finally had enough. Since I've committed to their plan I've seen results. That's all I needed to see and feel to give them an easy 5 STARS!

Report
I've been coming here for a little over 3 years and I bring my 2 kids too. My 10 year old has been coming for 2 years or so and my almost 2 year old has been coming since birth. I love that they welcome you in with open arms. The Doctors and Staff are extremely friendly and professional. I starting coming here because I suffered with migraines for as long as I can remember, since coming here I no longer have migraines and I'm off all my migraine medications! Also, I have seen a huge improvement in my oldest sons behavior since getting him adjusted here. All around great place! I highly recommend!

Report
I went there from the recommendation of friend. I have a history of numerous medical issues. Those issues really concerned the doctors initially. After several manipulations, and some minor work at home of at the recommendation of the doctors, I began to see and feel better and able to move better and my pain has decreased. I still have a way to go, but I know things will continue to improve. I strongly recommend Rivertown Family Chiropractic Services.
