Meet Dr. Scott Stachelek

U.S. Marine. Chiropractor. Servant Leader.

Dr. Scott Stachelek has had two callings in his adult life — U.S. Marine and Chiropractor — both rooted in a deep desire to serve. His journey into chiropractic care was born not only from his commitment to service but also from personal experience. After walking through his own son’s traumatic birth and navigating challenges like speech delays, dysgraphia, and autoimmune struggles, Dr. Scott became determined to break free from the limits of the allopathic model of symptom management. He knew families deserved more — not just survival, but a thriving, connected, purpose-filled life.

After earning his Doctorate of Chiropractic in 1999, Dr. Scott and his wife Joanna relocated to Dumfries, Virginia, where they opened a multi-impact health facility designed to restore hope and health in their community. Over the years, his dedication and innovation in neurologically focused family care have earned him recognition as Chiropractor of the Year — twice — from two separate national organizations.

Today, Dr. Scott’s mission continues through his family-centered practice, where he cares for moms, dads, and children — with a special passion for helping kids struggling with Autism, ADHD, anxiety, and Sensory Processing Disorder. His work is dedicated to unwinding the devastating impact of stress and disconnection on the nervous system and empowering families to experience their God-given potential.

When he’s not in the office, you can find Dr. Scott and his wife on their family farm, where they work to steward the land through regenerative practices and live out the same principles of healing, restoration, and connection that guide their care for people.

Together with his wife and two grown children, Dr. Scott lives out the belief that nothing is impossible when you have vision, purpose, and faith in the body’s God-designed ability to heal.
