Chiropractor Near Capitol Heights, Des Moines
Need a chiropractor near Capitol Heights? True Roots Chiropractic is just 14 minutes away in Des Moines, 9.6 miles via US-6 and I-235. We have helped East Side Des Moines residents and families address pain, improve nervous system function, and stay healthy using one of the most researched techniques in modern chiropractic.
Chiropractic Care for Capitol Heights Residents
At True Roots, we do not just treat the symptom you walked in with. We use state-of-the-art technology to assess your nervous system, pinpoint the source of your pain, and build a full-spine care plan that actually works.
Most Capitol Heights patients who find us have tried something else first. Another chiropractor, physical therapy, painkillers, or a wait-and-see approach. They come to us because the results held.
What to Expect From Your Care
Adjustments are efficient, with most taking under 15 minutes. Re-evaluations run 30 minutes or less. Your first visit wraps up in under an hour.
Our Service Area
We serve Capitol Heights and the surrounding East Side Des Moines neighborhoods, including the areas off NE Broadway Avenue, NE 14th Street, and along the Des Moines River corridor.
Conditions We Help With
Capitol Heights patients come to True Roots for a wide range of concerns. Our whole-body approach means we look beyond the area where you feel pain, because the source is rarely where the symptom shows up.
Pain and Injury
We commonly treat back pain (chronic or acute), neck pain and tech neck from desk work, headaches and migraines, sciatica and nerve pain, sports injuries, and auto accident recovery including whiplash. We also work with disc bulges, protrusions, and herniations using a non-surgical, drug-free approach.
Family and Pregnancy Care
Our practice includes Webster-certified prenatal care for expecting mothers and pediatric care for infants through teens. Common concerns we help with include colic, ear infections, sleep issues, posture, and developmental support.
Why Capitol Heights Patients Choose True Roots
We use the Torque Release Technique (TRT), one of the most researched and scientifically validated chiropractic techniques in practice today. All of our doctors are Advanced Proficiency Rated in TRT. It is a specific, low-force adjustment that works for everyone from infants to seniors, with reproducible and measurable results.
Voted Cityview's Best Chiropractor
We were voted Cityview's Best Chiropractor in 2022 and 2023, recognition we earned from the Des Moines metro community.
