"I came to Iowa Family Chiropractic when I was 8 months pregnant. I had pretty intense lower back pain and wanted to see if chiropractic could help. After only 3 appointments I felt significantly better and didn’t have back pain the rest of my pregnancy! I brought Ledger to IFC when he was 3 weeks old...

“Dr. Kellie has been adjusting my three children and they love her... they love to get adjusted, it calms and relaxes them and they say they feel good afterwards. Dr. Kellie is great with the children, the adjustments have definitely helped with their overall health.”

“My pain was gone within a few weeks of my first adjustment and I no longer took any Tylenol. I now see Dr. Kellie to get checked about once a month, and I have not had any pain for over a year. I appreciate my care with Dr. Kellie and her friendly staff. She has a first-class facility and gets the job done right!”
Meet Our Patients
Mandee, Thatcher, Lorelei & Hallie
Mandee first came to us when she was pregnant with her third child. "I had severe body pain with my pregnancy." After she became a patient, she brought her kids, Thatcher and Lorelei, to get checked. "I wanted preventative health for my kids."
Mandee had a difficult pregnancy with Hallie, whom she also had checked right after birth. "Dr. Kellie has a very gentle, non-agressive approach that is exactly what I needed during my pregnancy. It has also been exactly what my kids needed to get over their fears of being adjusted." Kids are sometimes afraid of "doctors offices" because of past experiences. Adjustments for kids are gentle and non-forceful.
"I like that Dr. Kellie takes her time and does not just rush us through. She takes the time to talk to the kids to build a relationship with them so they are at ease with everything going on. There is such a great set-up for the kids to keep them quiet and busy! " - Mandee, Thatcher, Lorelei and Hallie
TAYLOR, CAMERON & CAIDEN
“Dr. Kellie has been adjusting my three children and they love her. My daughter Taylor gets excited about getting adjusted and asks when she can have it done again. My son Cameron had RSV as an infant and had to use a nebulizer after that to get over even the smallest cold. Dr. Kellie adjusts him when he starts coming down with anything and I am happy to say that it has been well over two years since I have needed to give him a nebulizer treatment. My youngest child Caiden has also been adjusted by Dr. Kellie for most of his life and at almost 3 now has never had anything more than a common cold. All three children love to get adjusted, it calms and relaxes them and they say they feel good afterwards. Dr. Kellie is great with the children, the adjustments have definitely helped with their overall health.” - Connie
Gavin
Gavin’s parents brought him in after consulting several different types of doctors about his sleeping difficulties. Gavin was unable to get restful sleep since birth and was up (along with his parents) numerous times during the night. After his first adjustment, Gavin was finally able to rest! With each adjustment he was able to get more and more sleep, allowing his body to recover and grow, and allowing mom and dad some rest too! Now, Gavin just gets checked once in awhile to make sure he is growing and developing in the best way.
Jim
“Back in July 2008 I had severe pain in my left leg, and I went to see my family physician. I had an MRI and was referred to a doctor at a pain clinic. I was diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal), which happens with age and I am 74 now. They told me my options were to have surgery or an epidural injection, which I could have 3 times a year. I did receive and epidural and a pain medication, which upset my stomach so I couldn’t take it. The epidural relieved the pain for about four months, but then it came back again. I wanted to prolong getting another one, and Tylenol was no longer helping (I was taking 8/day). I then made the decision to see Dr. Kellie. She asked questions about the pain I was having, did and exam and took x-rays. She began adjusting me and doing therapy, first more frequently and then less. My pain was gone within a few weeks of my first adjustment and I no longer took any Tylenol. I now see Dr. Kellie to get checked about once a month, and I have not had any pain for over a year. I appreciate my care with Dr. Kellie and her friendly staff. She has a first-class facility and gets the job done right!” - Jim
Nicole & Colton
When Colton was born, he was breech, which resulted in a c-section for Nicole. "I am pregnant with my 2nd child and I had heard that chiropractic care can help to keep my baby from going into a breech position like my 1st baby had done. I wanted to avoid another c-section, and Dr. Hoover specializes in pregnancy care." Nicole was also having some back pain and headaches, as she did when she was pregnant with Colton. "I have much less discomfort during this pregnancy than I did with my first. The usual 2nd trimester headaches became very minimal, and now during the 3rd trimester, the back pain that plagued my first pregnancy is not there this time around."
"I like how relaxed the adjustments make me feel. I also like how after I get adjusted, my pregnancy pains are minimal and the baby seems to be positioning well." Colton has been a great patient too! He loves getting adjusted. "She is so gentle with him--it really relaxes him." - Nicole
Jeanna & Ledger
"I came to Iowa Family Chiropractic when I was 8 months pregnant. I had pretty intense lower back pain and wanted to see if chiropractic could help. After only 3 appointments I felt significantly better and did not have back pain the rest of my pregnancy! I brought Ledger to see Dr. Kellie when he was 3 weeks old. He was favoring one side of his neck and only liked to look to one side. Our experience at Iowa Family Chiropractic has been great. Dr. Kellie and Caitlin are very professional and personable. They both take a genuine interest in our well being. Dr. Kellie is extremely gentle with Ledger which makes me very comfortable.I appreciate how Dr. Kellie explains what she is adjusting on Ledger and why. She asks a lot of questions about his health and has been helpful in suggesting chiropractic treatments and other natural remedies to alleviate his neck pain, spit ups and even eczema."- Jeanne
Teagan
Teagan was brought in by his parents at about 8 weeks after finding that he was not able to turn his head one direction. After his first adjustment Teagan had almost full range of motion, and he still gets checked to ensure optimal development throughout infancy. Torticollis is fairly common in babies, and chiropractic can gently release the stuck bones and muscles in a way that no other method can.
Kevin & Colton
The Mienke family (Kevin and Colton pictured) came to Iowa Family Chiropractic from another doctor. Colt is a pitcher and has seen huge benefits of chiropractic care to his baseball game. He was diagnosed with Tourette's at a young age and has found that adjustments allow him to better handle tics. Kevin and Janet, his parents, also get adjusted regularly to maintain their health and keep their health care costs low. Patients under chiropractic care spend less time in hospitals, are on fewer medications, and have fewer surgeries!
HAYLEE
"I never thought that I could get rid of my pain. Doctor visits, medications, physical therapy…and it was still there. The pain in my neck and back was constant and I accepted it as being normal “chronic pain”. I have been seeing Dr. Kellie for about a year now, and I am amazed at the progress I made. I work 12-hour shifts as a nurse, and my feet, legs, back and neck don’t hurt when I get off work anymore. Before seeing Dr. Kellie, just standing for an hour would make my body ache. Not only that, but my daily headaches have turned into a rarity. I can’t believe how far I have come. Thanks Dr. Kellie!” - Haylee
JILLIAN & ERIN
Jillian and her mom Erin both get adjusted regularly. Erin is a massage therapist and finds that chiropractic care allows for better comfort and function while working. Jillian has fought minor illnesses like colds and ear infections since birth, and her mom was looking for a more gentle approach in order to avoid medicines. Jillian is now able to fight back with a stronger immune system! Adjustments help to boost immunity and allow the body to better respond to its environment.
REBECCA & AUSTYN
Rebecca came to IFC while pregnant to relieve discomfort. After finding that getting adjusted while pregnant she could look forward to shorter, easier labor and a healthier baby, she continued throughout her pregnancy - and brought Austyn in at only 5 days old to get checked! Birth is traumatic to a baby’s spine, no matter how natural it is, and it is important to get kids checked as soon as possible. Rebecca now says that Austyn is incredibly strong for her age and has had no troubles whatsoever.
Greg
"I have been seeing Dr. Kellie for several years, throughout that time I have had my back, neck, shoulders and ankles adjusted. These extremity adjustments have significantly decreased the soreness I felt on a day to day basis, as well as helped the recovery of my sprained ankle and other minor sports injuries. Dr. Kellie is very knowledgeable and I feel extremely comfortable asking her questions about my health. She emphasizes general wellness and prevention of injury and illness. Dr. Kellie is very professional and really cares about her patients’ well being." - Greg
