There is a provider directory that many people with hEDS do not know about. 📍

The Ehlers-Danlos Society keeps a directory of providers, and Dr. Nick Meier is listed in it. He lives with hEDS himself, and he pairs low-rotation Gonstead adjusting with rehab tailored to each person. If you have been searching for a provider who understands, we would love to help.

See his listing here: https://www.ehlers-danlos.com/directory/nick-meier/

Soreness after a car accident can show up days later, long after you thought you got off easy. 🚗

It is common to feel fine at the scene and stiff by midweek. At Meier Family Chiropractic in Urbandale, we start with a full exam, movement testing, and x-rays when needed, then build care around what we find.

Told a bone in your back has slipped, and now you are wondering what comes next? 💙

Spondylolisthesis means one vertebra has slipped forward over the one below it, and it can cause instability and back pain. Some cases involve a fracture in the bone, which is why so many people assume chiropractic is no longer an option. Here is the encouraging part: chiropractic can help in many cases.

Care can include adjusting the regions below the slip to help stabilize it and support pain relief, since the slipped bone itself should not be adjusted directly. We also prescribe specific exercises to strengthen the core muscles that support your spine, and we monitor its progression with periodic x-rays. 🦴

X-rays are a big part of this. A chiropractor who takes them can see a spondylolisthesis, while one who does not may miss it entirely, and that clear picture lets us build a plan that is safe and fits you.

Swipe through for the full picture, save this for anyone who has been told a vertebra has slipped, and drop your questions in the comments - let's walk through them together!

One of the biggest barriers to rehab isn't laziness. It's the pressure to do it perfectly.

You don't need an hour-long program, fancy equipment, or a pain-free day to make progress. What you need is five to ten consistent minutes, movements that match your current capacity, and the patience to let small gains accumulate over time.

The nervous system and connective tissue respond to regularity. That's it. Pair your exercises with something you already do, morning coffee, lunch break, before bed, and consistency becomes a lot easier to maintain.

Small movements. Real results.

It’s been more than seven years since I first visited Dr. Nick’s office. I remember being in so much pain due to a rib being out of place. My previous chiropractor had limited my visits to simply adjusting my back without doing any further assessment, and honestly didn’t have many expectations after that.From my very first visit, Dr. Nick showed himself to be knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate. I especially appreciated that he wouldn’t perform any treatment without first doing a proper assessment. I even trusted him with my back throughout my pregnancies, and his care was incredibly helpful with all the discomfort that came with them. He also takes the time to evaluate everything thoroughly and never rushes through the adjustments.Totally recommend him! 🙌🏻

If you live with hEDS, you know the path forward isn't a straight line. Some days feel like progress. Others feel like you're back at square one.

That unpredictability is one of the hardest parts, not just physically, but emotionally. It can make it hard to trust your own body, or to commit to a care plan when you're not sure how you'll feel from week to week.

At Meier Family Chiropractic, we build plans that account for that reality. We work with where you are on any given day, adjust when we need to, and keep your long-term stability and quality of life at the centre of every decision.

Steady steps forward, together.

Whether you came in for a disc injury, an ankle sprain, chronic headaches, or something you've been dealing with for years, your care plan here won't look like anyone else's.

At Meier Family Chiropractic, we start with a thorough assessment, reviewing your history, posture, movement patterns, and X-rays if needed, before we make any treatment decisions. That information shapes everything: which joints we adjust, what rehab we prescribe, and how we track your progress.

As your body responds, your plan evolves. We're not following a script. We're following you.

Specific care for specific people.
