Our Story
Meadows Chiropractic was born from the frustration of two chiropractors, Dr. Frank Cox, DC and Dr. Andrea Ellis, DC over patient care and billing. Both had worked for other chiropractic offices and had reached a breaking point as it related to how little time they got to spend treating patients. It was strongly encouraged to only spend 3-5 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 10 years!

Techniques Our Doctors Use
Diversified Technique

This is the original adjusting technique, created in 1895. This technique involves the application of a short (low-amplitude), quick (high-velocity) thrust over restricted joints (one at a time) with the goal of restoring 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 course of practice, 96 percent report that Diversified technique is one of them.
Thompson Technique
This technique is a system of analysis and adjustment for the full spine. Developed by Dr. J. Clay Thompson, the technique produces precise adjustments and high levels of patient comfort. This is a unique approach that was patented by Dr. Thompson in 1955 and is now used around the world. 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 Method®
This technique is a chiropractic treatment method and device created by Arlan Fuhr as an alternative to manual manipulation of the spine or extremity joints. The device is categorized as a mechanical force manual assisted (MFMA) instrument which is 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.
