About Schumacher Chiropractic Center in Kansas City and Lenexa

We've been delivering quality chiropractic care to the Kansas City community since 1966.  We are excited to be expanding our practice by adding office hours in Lenexa, KS inside The Healing Arts Center.

Our approach is simple. We believe that health is among our most valuable possessions. And while we generally meet people after they’ve lost their health, our commitment is two-fold:

1.  Relief Care
Relief or wellness care... it's your choice.

When many people seek care in our office they have one goal: relief. So that’s where we start! During this initial stage of intensive care, we have several obligations:

  • Uncover the underlying cause of the health problem
  • Suggest a care plan to produce the fastest results possible
  • Offer ways patients can participate in their recovery
  • Explain the value of post-symptomatic wellness care
2.  Corrective Care

Although pain is a strong motivator, it is important to understand that pain is a symptom, a warning sign if you will, to say that something is wrong.  However, pain is usually the last thing to show up and the first thing to go.  The problem probably originated long before the pain started, so it is likely that some degree of the problem will still exist after we've relieved the pain.  During corrective care, we continue to address the unstable joint(s) to rehabilitate and stregthen.

3.  Wellness Care

We encourage our patients to achieve the highest levels of health they can. Through educational opportunities (like this website), we hope to communicate the value of ongoing chiropractic care. Our desire is to see our practice members abandon the prevailing sickness care model of health (waiting for symptoms and then taking action), in favor of the emerging wellness model.

You’re the Boss

Regardless of your health goals, please understand that we see ourselves as mere servants. You’re the boss! It’s your body, your health and your future. Our job is to offer you the finest chiropractic care possible, and it’s up to you to decide how much of it you want.

 Dr. Mark Asks some important questions of interest to Kansas City residents - Chiropractor Kansas City Dr. Mark Asks...

Can those with osteoporosis get chiropractic care?
Of course. When developing a care plan, we consider the unique circumstances of each patient. There are many ways we can adjust the spine. The chiropractic method we select will be best suited to your age, size and unique situation.
How could a child benefit from chiropractic?
Regardless of our age, each of us in Kansas City encounters physical, chemical and emotional stresses that exceed our ability to handle. For newborns, it could be the trauma encountered at birth. For toddlers it could be from learning to walk or ride a bike. Many of the problems we chiropractors see in adults are the result of neglected traumas from childhood.
