Our Story
Meadows Chiropractic was born from the frustration of two chiropractors, Dr.s' Andrea Ellis and Frank Cox (dec.), over patient care and billing. Both had worked for other chiropractic offices and had reached a breaking point related to how little time they got to spend treating patients. It was strongly encouraged to only spend 2-3 minutes per patient for treatment. Numbers and quantity were the name of the game, not quality.
They both quit their salaried positions during the 2009 economic recession to strike out on their own. It was a hard time, as loans were scarce, but they started small. It’s hard to believe it’s been 12 years!

This is the original adjusting technique, created in 1895 in Davenport, Iowa. This technique involves the application of a short (low-amplitude), quick (high-velocity) thrust over restricted joints (one at a time) to restore normal range of motion in the joint.

This is the original adjusting technique, created in 1895 in Davenport, Iowa. This technique involves the application of a short (low-amplitude), quick (high-velocity) thrust over restricted joints (one at a time) to restore normal range of motion in the joint. The National Board of Chiropractic Examiners reports that, although the typical chiropractor uses as many as five or six different adjusting techniques in their practice, 96% say that the Diversified technique is one of them.

This technique is a system of analysis and adjustment for the entire spine. Developed by Dr. J. Clay Thompson, this technique produces precise adjustments and high levels of patient comfort. The Thompson Technique is a unique approach patented by Dr. Thompson in 1955. Individual cushions or “drop pieces” located along the table surface support each area of your spine until the chiropractic adjustment is delivered. Then, each drop piece gently gives way, reducing the amount of energy needed to move a specific spinal segment.
Activator Technique
Diversified Technique
Activator Technique
This technique is a chiropractic treatment using a device as an alternative to manual manipulation of the spine or extremity joints. The Activator device is a mechanical force manual assisted (MFMA) instrument, generally regarded as a softer chiropractic treatment technique.

This technique is a chiropractic treatment using a device as an alternative to manual manipulation of the spine or extremity joints. The Activator device is a mechanical force manual assisted (MFMA) instrument, generally regarded as a softer chiropractic treatment technique. It is a small handheld, spring-loaded instrument which delivers a controlled and reproducible impulse to the spine. There is no "popping" or "clicking" of joints during the adjustment with this technique; therefore, it is considered very gentle. We use Activator II instruments.
