Natural Back Relief During Pregnancy

Serola Sacroiliac Belt

How can the Serola Sacrioliac Belt help me during and after pregnancy?


The importance of using the Serola Sacroiliac Belt during and, especially, after pregnancy cannot be overemphasized. During pregnancy, the ligaments, under hormonal influences, become lax and stretch to allow the pelvis to spread for delivery. It is important to hold the sacroiliac and pubic joints firmly together after delivery in order to assist the ligaments in shortening and realigning the pelvis properly.

Our doctors at Meek Chiropractic in Springfield, MO guide our pregnant and postpartum patients through the process of staying healthy and pain free naturally so you can be the best 
mommy you can be.

How to Foam Roll Away Lower Back Pain


How to Foam Roll Away Lower Back Pain





It is very unfortunate that hundreds, if not thousands, of people suffer on a daily basis due to lower back pain. What is discouraging about this fact? Majority of those that are suffering have never even thought about chiropractic as a way to resolve their pain. A lot of people don’t know what chiropractic has to offer let alone why they should see a doctor of chiropractic.  We teach our patients how to work with us as a team. This includes showing them things they can do at home daily to relieve pain faster and help correct underlying issues.  Foam rollers are one of our doctors favorite tools to help teach patients how to get relief from lower back pain.  

We hope this information from Meek Chiropractic in Springfield MO will be helpful.

Meek Chiropractic Employee Spotlight-Meet Brandy

Employee Spotlight

Meet Brandy-Pregnancy massage is her specialty





Brandy is one of our four licensed massage therapists.  She will always greet you with a smile or she will find a way to make you laugh.  However, she is even better at making you feel refreshed and relaxed after one of our many massage options. 

Like all of our massage therapist, they work directly with our doctors.  This not only provides the patient with an extra benefit in the clinical side massage or myofascial release therapy, but when our massage therapists know exactly what our doctors' diagnosis is for the patient, it helps the massage therapist achieve a better result during a 30, 60 or 90 minute massage.

Having your back for the last 10 Years-Our Story-Our Future





Wow!  I can't believe October 10, 2015 will mark 10 years since  me and my wife, Tara, ventured out on our own to open a new chiropractic office.  If you can imagine how scary it is to open a business, any business, multiply that fear by 100 if you are planning to open a chiropractic office.  Over the last 10 years there has been laughter, smiles, fun, learning, tears, stress, long hours and lots of prayer.  However, we can only give credit to the open arms of the community, our patients and God for our strength and success.  

It all started with me, my wife, 2 employees, a 3 year old and no money in the bank.  Can you imagine?  We must have been crazy.  Crazy.  Maybe?  But we had a dream.  Our dream was to introduce our community to a new side of chiropractic.  Chiropractic can be fun.  Chiropractic can be family. Chiropractic can be helping the community.  We wanted everyone to know, chiropractic is AMAZING!

Our passion is chiropractic.  Our purpose is helping others and the community.

Tara and I want to first thank our patients.  Many of these patients have been with us since the first day we opened our doors.  Each and every patient who walks through our doors holds a special place in our hearts.

We want to thank our amazing community for embracing us through our journey.  Many local businesses have partnered with us over the years at events, fundraisers, promotions and more.

10 years have flown by and I feel our journey has just begun.  The future of Meek Chiropractic will bring many exciting things to our patients and the community.


Leading up to our anniversary October 10, 2015, Meek Chiropractic is CELEBRATING!!!  For the entire year we are celebrating not only our anniversary, but our employees, our doctors, our patients, businesses who helped us along the way, and local organizations we have donated to through the years.  It is going to be an exciting year.  Keep a look out for many exciting announcements!

The best is yet to come.



THANK YOU!!!  

Happy New Year!




Dr. Gary and Tara Meek
