There are a lot of different reasons to choose one chiropractor rather than another. Often the choice is made based on the recommendation of a friend, sometimes it’s just a gut level response to the name, or the convenience of location.
I’d like to tell you what we focus on here, the basic approach that we take so that you can include this in making your decision. From patient reception through examination, treatment, and billing our primary focus is to improve your general well being.
When you’re in pain a genuine smile and interaction with someone who treats you as a person – not just a ‘customer’ goes a long way toward helping you feel better emotionally. From the moment you walk in our door we want to do everything we can to help you feel better, so we hire receptionists who are not only efficient, courteous and polite, but ones who are genuinely friendly and cheerful.
Sometimes you may have to wait a few minutes to see the doctor. We know that if your back hurts sitting is very uncomfortable. We can’t eliminate that pain while you are waiting but we do provide massage chairs to make you as comfortable as possible and provide a little bit of immediate relief.
At Potocki Family Chiropractic, our story begins with a personal journey of healing. Dr. Thad Potocki’s life was forever changed when a back injury nearly led him to surgery—until chiropractic care restored his health naturally. That experience inspired him to dedicate his life to helping others heal from within and live to their fullest potential.
With over three decades of experience, Dr. Potocki brings a rare combination of technical precision and heartfelt compassion to every patient interaction. His background in electrical engineering gives him a unique understanding of the body’s “wiring system”—the nervous system—and how proper spinal alignment ensures clear communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
Our practice offers customized, patient-centered care designed around your individual needs and goals. Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, recovering from injury, or pursuing long-term wellness, we tailor every visit to your body’s specific responses and healing patterns. We may incorporate gentle spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, stretching, corrective exercises, or lifestyle recommendations to accelerate and sustain your recovery.
We also emphasize education and empowerment—teaching you what you can do at home and work to promote your own healing and prevent future problems. Our goal isn’t just to relieve pain, but to help you thrive through improved function, movement, and vitality.
At Potocki Family Chiropractic, you’ll be treated like family, not just a patient. We genuinely enjoy getting to know each person who walks through our doors and celebrate every step of your progress. Your health and happiness are the heart of what we do.
We believe quality chiropractic care should be accessible to everyone. If financial challenges arise, our team will work with you to find flexible options and ensure that care is never out of reach.


Every Wednesday evening at 6:05 pm we offer our spinal health care class. This hour long class is free to the public, so please bring a family member or friend.
This class is really helpful to those of you want to take an active role in achieving and maintaining a healthy life style so please come and join us. Remember, the exercises we are teaching are geared toward you, our patients, so we aren’t asking you to do anything that will be uncomfortable or cause you any pain.
Corrective Care Chiropractic is a completely different approach to achieving and maintaining optimal health. A true Corrective Care Chiropractor will evaluate the Central Nervous System (CNS) and spinal function. The Chiropractic Corrective Care doctor evaluates the person for not only trauma and pathology but more importantly for function. Since our CNS controls every single one of our cells, tissues, and organs we need it to function as close to 100% as possible.
When we see a patient for the first time at our clinic we always let them know there are two basic forms of chiropractic care. One being relief care, which is pain control, and the other is corrective care, which works on the underlying structural abnormalities (that are causing the pain) to make a more permanent change. It’s kind of like spinal orthodontics.
