Derek came to see me recently after struggling to find help with his vertigo and neck pain. In less than a month he’s had incredible results — better flexibility in his neck and the vertigo from his Meniere’s is gone.
I take full-spine X-rays periodically and keep them visible at every visit so I know exactly what I’m doing. Precision makes a difference.
If you’ve been dealing with neck issues or vertigo, give us a call or text: 217-679-1185.

Good health has roots. 🌱

A little getaway. A lot to bring home.

We took Living Well Chiropractic out to the Standard Process Farm for a closer look at where whole food nutrition begins - from the goodness of Mother Earth, to you.

Fresh air, good food, a company with deep roots in whole food nutrition. Volumes learned. Memories saved forever. The kind of experience that leaves you refreshed—and inspired to help more people live well.

Because the goal is bigger than feeling better. It’s about becoming the best version of yourself, for the life you were meant to live. It’s about having the energy and freedom to enjoy the life you’re building.

We’re bringing that inspiration home to Springfield.

Eat Well. Live Well.

“If I can teach you how to move your body well, you can really live.” — Dr. Sam

What if you could have the confidence in your body to move it however you wanted?

More walks. More adventures. More getting down to earth with the people you love. And critters. 🐾

For some, that’s literally getting down on the ground where their grandkids are. For others, it’s being there—wherever the people they love happen to be.

What do you want to keep doing for years to come?

Think Well. Move Well. Live Well.

Sunday vibes. 🐾 Ducky talked us into watching church online today so he could join. Belly rubs weren’t mentioned in the sermon, but they were a very important part of today’s service. 😂

Faith, family, fur.

Connected. Living Well.

Excuse me, sir—you dropped your posture! 🤔😂

Do you ever think about your posture—or only when something starts to feel uncomfortable?

Posture is how you carry yourself through your day.

Working. Driving. Training. Playing with your kids. That’s where the conversation starts at Living Well—with how you use your body.

Here, Dr. Sam reviews a patient’s X-rays as part of the Gonstead system—an advanced chiropractic method focused on careful, specific evaluation—helping explain what he sees and what it means for that person.

Move Well. Live Well.

When do you notice your posture most?

You’ve spent decades building a life. Now you’re killing it. 🔥. These are my parents at Stonehenge.

48 years married and counting. ❤️

Still traveling.
Still exploring.
Still having adventures.

Still spending time with their family and grandkids.

This is what I mean when I talk about Living Well.

They have things to do.
Places to go.
People to love.
A life to live.

And as their chiropractor, I get to make sure the life they’ve built has a solid backbone.

Because health isn’t the destination.

It’s what helps you keep getting to the places you want to go.

Live the life you were meant to live. And live it well.

I have plans for this body. 🔥

I don’t want to spend my life thinking about my health.

I want my health to let me spend my life doing things.

Riding my bike. Lifting. Working. Traveling. Playing. Being a dad. Going places. Saying yes when something sounds fun.

Health isn’t the destination.

It’s what helps you get there.

Take care of your body like you plan on using it.

Live the life you were meant to live. And live it well.

Nobody cares about spinal health. Not really. 😂

What we REALLY care about is what our health allows us to DO!

Playing with our kids. Working out. Traveling. Enjoying our favorite activities. Being there for the people we love.

Your health isn’t the destination. It’s what helps you get there.

Live the life you were meant to live. And live it well.
