Individualized musculoskeletal care for Bridgeton and the greater St. Louis community.

Meet Your Chiropractor
Dr. JC didn't choose chiropractic. It chose him. Growing up in St. Louis, he spent years dealing with back pain and headaches that nobody could seem to fix. Doctors, medications, rest: nothing worked until a chiropractor finally got to the root of the problem. That experience changed his life, and he decided to make it his life's work to do the same for others.
After graduating from Christian Brothers College (CBC) High School in St. Louis, Missouri, Dr. JC earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Logan University in 2015. He trained extensively in hands-on soft tissue techniques including active muscle release and Graston Technique, and developed a deep focus on functional biomechanics, understanding how the body actually moves and where it breaks down. He is a proud member of the Missouri State Chiropractic Association.
Dr. JC takes time to listen, explain his findings, and build a plan around what matters to you. That might mean getting through a workday more comfortably, returning to a sport, or keeping up with your kids. He discusses your options, checks your progress, and recommends another provider when your needs fall outside what the office can offer.
Outside the office, Dr. JC is first and foremost a proud dad. You'll probably find him at a practice or game, cheering on his two favorite athletes: his two sons. Whether it's a weekday practice or a weekend game, time with his boys is a big part of life outside the clinic.
He's also a proud San Antonio Spurs, St. Louis Blues, St. Louis Battlehawks, Kansas City Chiefs, and St. Louis Cardinals fan. There's usually a game to talk about, but no professional team outranks his boys.
Our Mission
Advanced Wellness Chiropractic was built on a simple idea: you should understand your care. That starts with a conversation about what hurts, what you have already tried, and what you want to get back to doing.
We explain the options and their limits, agree on practical goals, and reassess along the way. You can ask questions, decline a treatment, or discuss a different approach at any visit.
