Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments correct spinal misalignments using manual thrusts or instrument-assisted techniques. Our doctors employ diversified, Gonstead, and Activator methods to relieve nerve pressure, improve joint mobility, and reduce pain from conditions like sciatica and herniated discs. This evidence-based treatment benefits patients seeking non-surgical solutions for chronic pain.
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets myofascial trigger points using thin filament needles to release muscle tension and alleviate pain. This technique effectively treats repetitive strain injuries, headaches, and chronic pain conditions by stimulating tissue healing and promoting circulation. Sessions typically last 15-30 minutes with minimal discomfort during treatment.
Active Release Technique
Active Release Technique combines manual pressure and patient movement to break up scar tissue and adhesions in muscles and tendons. Certified practitioners use over 500 protocols to treat sports injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, and restricted mobility, restoring normal tissue function and range of motion through targeted soft tissue manipulation.
SoftWave Therapy
SoftWave Therapy utilizes acoustic waves to stimulate cellular regeneration and improve circulation for chronic pain conditions. This non-invasive treatment accelerates healing of tendons, ligaments, and bones while reducing inflammation and promoting collagen production for long-term tissue repair in musculoskeletal injuries.
Prenatal Chiropractic
Prenatal chiropractic care addresses biomechanical changes during pregnancy using the Webster Technique for optimal fetal positioning. Gentle adjustments relieve back pain, sciatica, and pelvic discomfort while preparing the body for natural childbirth. Treatment plans accommodate all trimesters with specialized tables for patient comfort.

While on extended vacation in Yellowstone region, I desperately needed treatment to continue our adventures. Dr. Rising, Courtney, and all the staff at Gallatin Valley Chiropractic were accommodating, attentive, and exceptional in all their techniques and practices. As an avid believer in chiropractic care, everything the team at GVC provided was professional and personal. A huge thank you from this traveler/adventurer to Gallatin Valley Chiropractic!

Friendly helpful team. They sell footlevers orthodics and even though I wasn't an established patient and live in another city in Montana they were willing to help me! I was grateful for their great service!

As an athlete, its been a definite help to have Dr. Clay on staff with his knowledge of ART (active release therapy). Keeping everything in line and being able to target specific muscle groups with ART helps to keep me healthy and out on the trails. I'd definitely recommend any of my fellow runners to come here for preventative maintenance and/or treatment!

I have been visiting Gallatin Valley Chiropractic for about 9 years and it's been wonderful to see the practice grow from 1 doctor to now 4 doctors in the office. I recently had severe pinched nerves in my neck and Dr Clay Winters relieved all of my pain and tension for me with a few adjustments. He made sure that I left the office with all of my symptoms alleviated. Within one day, I can now go on with my life pain free.

I injured my back while deadlifting and was able to contact Gallatin Valley Chiropractic and schedule a visit almost immediately (that same morning). I'm sure they had to adjust schedules to make this happen. I received excellent care from Dr. Dalgardno and a good plan of care to work with moving forward. As a fellow healthcare professional, I would recommend their services to anyone seeking high quality, personalized chiropractic care.

Our family has been working with Gallatin Valley Chiropractic for quite some time, and we absolutely love all the doctors here! They are all very thorough and take the time to explain what is going on and the best plan of care! I had ankle surgery two weeks ago, and I have been miserable. My orthopedist just chalked it up to post surgical pain. I reached out to David because I needed relief. We came up with a plan to try dry needling to see if this would help the tingling, numbness and pain.

After dry needling last night, this was the best that I had felt since surgery. I didn't require pain meds and I got a great night's sleep. Thank you for helping me to get back on the mend and decrease the amount of pain I have been experiencing! You guys are all amazing, and we are very appreciative of the thorough care all of you provide!

Dr. Rachel was wonderful to work with. She's caring, compassionate and has an abundance of knowledge in the prenatal field. I personally had terrible pain during pregnancy and Rachel was able to reduce my discomfort considerably. My favorite part was that she didn't want to adjust my neck during each visit like my prior chiropractor (after all I wasn't having neck issues!). I highly recommend GVC!

Dr. David! After being an athlete my whole life and having a 4th c-section, I am so grateful for for this place and the help I have received. Was introduced to dry needling for my hip and back, it has been crucial for my healing. Recently having shoulder ailments from carrying babies around, dry needling has once again come to the rescue. Not only has treatment been so helpful to me, my whole family now goes to see David too! Thank you GVC for helping us stay an active family. 10 stars!

I'm pretty sure Clay just saved my life! I had a baby almost 4 months ago and my lower back has gotten increasing tighter and I've lost a lot of mobility. I'm so happy to report that I can move from standing to sitting with minimal pain! Thank you so much guys! Looking forward to continued visits in order to retrain my muscles!

For years I suffered from constant headaches. I did multiple blood test, changed my diet, and even got an MRI. I thought it was something I was going to live with until I started seeing Dr. Dustin Rising. Within a couple of weeks of chiropractic treatment, my headaches were almost nonexistent. Dr. Dustin is not only a great chiropractor, he is a very kind person and his staff is wonderful. I highly recommend Gallatin Valley Chiropractic!

If you've had COVID, you need to go to Gallatin Valley Chiropractic now! After COVID, I had severe fatigue, brain fog, persistent headaches and blurry vision. I really just wanted my vision back when I made my appointment, but after just one adjustment my brain fog was gone, my vision improved, no more headaches and I had more energy! I really thought it would take weeks to feel normal again, but I was feeling better the next day! I have been going to Dr. Dustin for other issues prior, but the quick results after COVID is truly what made me a life long client!

Dr. Dustin has provided me chiropractic care for several years now. I trust him completely. A couple of years ago, we were about to travel overseas and 12 days prior to departure I tweaked my back like it had never been tweaked before. I was barely able to walk. Dr. Dustin went to task and made it his mission to get me up to speed before a 24 hour flight. He quite literally saved our dream trip for which there was no refund. I appreciate the entire staff and all their care. They are awesomeness!

Dr. Dustin, Dr. Rachel, and Dr. David are all amazing! They each do adjustments a little differently so you can find the one that works best for you, but they're all amazing! Taylor at the front desk is so kind as well! She always asks how my day has been, offers my coffee and wishes me a good day or weekend after explaining my payment and bill!

I just want to give a shout out to Gallatin Valley Chiropratic! Im going to see them on Friday and Dr.Rising made sure Im the only person in the clinic for my adjustment/dry needling! This means so much since I am immune compromised! That I still can get relief and be safe at the same time. Thank you so much for caring

Dr Rising has always been there whenever I've had issues. Getting an appointment has been easy and he's very professional and does a great job getting me back on my feet. I'd recommend him to anyone! Doesn't pressure you for treatments you don't need and is always fun and energetic.

I do not have enough kind words to describe the people at this establishment!! I have been in pain for a week in my lower back. Missed work and layed on my back for almost six days. I called and Dr.Dalgardno answered long after business hours and offered to meet me in the office if i was able to make it. Such and amazing man!!! He brought his beautiful family in and met me with incredible compassion and care. Adjusted my back and gave me more relief and comfort in 30 minutes than all the Dr. s at Bozeman Deconess could have dreamed of all week.

I will definitely and absolutely take all of my needs to this man before I ever step foot at the hospital again. Thank you so so much doc, 4 hours later and still feeling incredible relief and my posture feels almost straight compared to the z position I was in when I met you.

I have always had a fantastic experience working with Dr. Dustin Rising. I've seen him on and off over the years for various reasons. Initially what I really liked was that after he saw and adjusted me he did not set me up with multiple visits down the road as many do or have a reputation for doing. Recently I went in for a more serious issue that did require multiple visits but he got me on the road to recovery quickly! I would recommend Dr. Rising to anyone - he is professional, honest, patient and really very caring.
