Your Trusted Family Chiropractor in Chicago
Established in 2014, Back Home Chiropractic has provided specialized family chiropractic care in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood for over a decade. As a wellness-focused practice, we prioritize the body's innate healing capabilities through precise spinal alignment techniques. Our expertise extends to prenatal and postnatal care, utilizing the certified Webster Technique to support optimal fetal positioning and natural childbirth. For pediatric patients, we address spinal misalignments from birth or developmental stages that may contribute to conditions like colic, ear infections, and sleep disturbances. Our proactive approach emphasizes regular maintenance care to maintain peak bodily function, similar to routine vehicle maintenance or financial planning.With a background in education, our founder combines deep anatomical knowledge with personalized patient education to empower informed health decisions. We specialize in resolving chronic pain conditions affecting the back, neck, shoulders, and joints while addressing systemic concerns like digestive issues and migraines. By focusing on structural alignment rather than pharmaceutical interventions, we provide non-invasive solutions for whole-family wellness across all life stages. Our commitment to community health is reflected in our active involvement with local wellness initiatives and partnerships with complementary healthcare providers.

Prenatal Chiropractic
Specialized chiropractic care for expectant mothers maintains proper spinal alignment during pregnancy. This approach reduces discomfort, supports optimal fetal positioning through the certified Webster Technique, and facilitates natural childbirth. Regular adjustments improve nerve function and circulation, addressing common pregnancy-related issues like back pain, sciatica, and digestive disturbances.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic adjustments for infants and children address birth-related spinal misalignments and developmental issues. This care helps alleviate conditions like colic, ear infections, and sleep disorders while supporting proper neurological development. Our technique adapts to children's needs, promoting long-term musculoskeletal health without medication or invasive procedures.
Family Chiropractic
Comprehensive chiropractic solutions for all family members address pain from spinal misalignments affecting nerves and muscles. Our care reduces back, neck, and joint pain while improving overall wellness. Treatment plans incorporate postural education and maintenance schedules to sustain pain relief and prevent recurring issues through natural, non-invasive methods.
Webster Technique
Certified chiropractic technique focusing on pelvic alignment for pregnant patients. This specialized adjustment creates optimal space in the uterus for fetal positioning, often resolving breech presentations naturally. The method supports comfortable pregnancies and facilitates vaginal deliveries by improving nerve communication between mother and baby.

Questions
What is the Webster Technique and how does it help pregnant women?
The Webster Technique is a certified chiropractic method that aligns the pelvis to create optimal space for fetal positioning. This non-invasive approach helps turn breech babies naturally, reducing the need for C-sections while improving comfort during pregnancy.
Do you accept non-pregnant patients?
Yes, we treat patients of all ages and genders. While specializing in prenatal and pediatric care, we provide chiropractic solutions for chronic pain, posture issues, and nervous system health for the entire family.
What conditions in children do you treat?
We address spinal misalignments in infants and children from birth trauma or developmental stages. Common concerns include colic, ear infections, reflux, sleep problems, and motor development issues through gentle, safe adjustments.
How soon can I get an appointment?
We typically schedule new patients the same or next business day. Initial visits last about an hour, with follow-up adjustments taking 15-20 minutes once treatment plans are established.
Do you accept insurance?
We are in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO and Medicare. While we bill all PPO plans, we cannot accept HMO policies or Medicaid. Cash payment options remain available for all patients.
