Merritt Family Chiropractic Center We are a daughter/father team running a family oriented, wellness based office for over 40 years.

Dr. Nicole specializes in pediatric and prenatal care but both DCs see newborns to ninety-year-old's. Merritt Family Chiropractic, as the name implies, is a family oriented, wellness based Chiropractic office operating in Hobe Sound for more than 30 years. For 4 generations the Chiropractors in our family have served the needs of the community with a simple, honest approach to patient care. Dr. Stephen Merritt, his daughter Dr. Nicole Townsley and the staff at Merritt Family Chiropractic are dedicated to patient care in a relaxed atmosphere of warmth and caring. Our office embraces the principles of chiropractic which are based on our body’s innate intelligence and its inherent ability to heal. Our objective is to locate and correct vertebral subluxation, or misalignments of the spine, as these can interfere with the function of the nervous system and disrupt natural health. As chiropractors we are trained in the detection and removal of such subluxations thus allowing your body to function at its maximum and be healthy without the use of potentially harmful medications or surgery. We take pride in caring for the entire family from newborns to 90 yr olds. It is our sincerest hope to see everyone well adjusted, healthy and as full of life as possible.

My son didn’t need a reason. He just gave. Someday I’ll tell him that’s the whole sermon. 🤍

SLOW DOWN!
We spend our whole lives rushing to the next thing.

Halloween isn’t even here yet and we’re already pointing at Christmas.

In the office we talk about this all the time — your nervous system doesn’t know how to rest when your brain is always three steps ahead.

Presence is a practice. For all of us. 😂🎄

Four generations of chiropractors. Same mission. Same hands. Same heart. Different headshot.

Great grandfather started it. Grandfather carried it. Dad built on it. And I get to jump for joy in the waiting room because of all of them.

This isn’t just what I do. It’s who I am. 🩻

We’re choosing to believe it’s haunted. Happy Halloween from Merritt Family Chiropractic.💙❤️

Halloween is one of the most dysregulating days of the year for a lot of kids — and nobody talks about why.

Swipe through. Save this. Share it with a mom who needs it this week. 🎃

And if your child struggles to recover every year — that's a nervous system thing, not a Halloween thing. DM NEW. 💚

Most helmets aren’t inevitable.

By the time a baby is in a helmet, there’s usually a chain of events that nobody connected — a head tilt that was “wait and see,” a feeding preference that was “just try different positions,” a flat spot that appeared slowly enough that no one flagged it early.

The neck is where I start with every single baby I see. Not because I’m looking for something wrong — because I want to know what we’re working with before it becomes a bigger conversation.

If your baby always turns the same way, struggles to latch on one side, or has a spot that’s starting to flatten — that’s information. Don’t wait.
