Trusted chiropractic care for Springfield
About 9 mins (4.6 mi) from our Battle Creek office
If you’ve been searching for a chiropractor in Springfield, MI, our office is closer than you might think. The Creek Chiropractic & Wellness sits at 510 E Columbia Ave in Battle Creek, near the I-94 and I-194 interchange — an easy 4.6-mile drive from the heart of Springfield down I-194 to the Columbia Avenue exit. For families around Avenue A, Dickman Road, and Upton Park, that’s about nine minutes door to door.
Springfield is its own small city tucked inside Battle Creek, and it keeps people busy. There are shifts at the Fort Custer Industrial Park, disc golf and farmers markets at Begg Park, and school days at Springfield Middle School and Verona Elementary. All of that activity can be hard on the body. We help Springfield neighbors with everyday complaints like back pain, neck pain, and sciatica through gentle, focused chiropractic adjustments.
Every visit starts with listening and a thorough exam, not a guess. Once we understand what’s going on, we explain it in plain language and build a clear plan with an end in sight. Alongside hands-on care, we offer massage therapy and ongoing wellness care to help you feel and move better between appointments. Kids and expecting moms are welcome too, with dedicated pediatric care for the whole family.
Ready to get started? Learn what to expect on our new patients page, or reach out through our contact page or by phone at (269) 979-2566. We’re open Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to noon and 3:00 to 6:00 PM, with Saturday appointments available — and there’s free parking waiting for you right out front.
