Chiropractic Care for West Des Moines Residents

That difference matters. Most West Des Moines 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 in West Des Moines
We serve patients across all West Des Moines ZIP codes, including 50265, 50266, and 50325. This covers the Jordan Creek, Valley West, and downtown WDM areas.
Conditions We Help West Des Moines Patients With
West Des Moines 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.
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.
Structural and Nervous System Issues
We work with posture problems, disc issues including bulges and protrusions, and stenosis. Patients also see improvements in sleep, energy, immune function, and overall nervous system health.
Why West Des Moines 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.
