My husband and I opened Wellness First over 20 years ago with the intention of making a real difference in the health and lives of families in the Midlothian and Powhatan areas. We thought what a great privilege to help and teach others as we simultaneously began raising our own family and teaching our own children the principles of health and wellness.
We have accomplished this through providing the latest in evidence based chiropractic, massage, nutrition and complimentary therapies. The research is constantly changing and we strive to stay cutting edge, continuously improving outcomes for our family of patients.

Have you ever wondered what a Midlothian VA chiropractor can help with? This is a very popular question. Everyone thinks of a chiropractic doctor when they have back or neck pain, but not many people think of them when they are suffering from allergies, disc problems, headaches or fibromyalgia. Unlike an anti-histamine, chiropractic care gives the body strength to fight allergies.
Back pain in Midlothian is all too common. Most individuals will suffer from some type of back pain at some point or another. In fact, research shows that over 30 million individuals are dealing with back pain right now and that 4 out of 5 individuals will deal with back pain in the future. With these astonishing figures, it's easy to see how back pain is the primary reason Americans become disabled.

The Service here is excellent and the staff is very professional and friendly from the Dr's to the massage therapist. On my first visit I could hardly walk due to major pain in my knees which the knee Dr says is bone on bone arthritis. After one visit here I was walking 85% better with much less pain. After 5 visits I am walking 99% better with little to no pain! So if you are suffering from knee or back pain I recommend you try their service and tell them Rivers sent you!

Highly recommended! Dr. Donnelly has great bedside manner, cost transparency, read through my paperwork and asked that I verbalize what I wrote to ensure understanding. He provided a detailed explanation of the result of my scans and also the plan of corrective action. At Dr. Donnelly's practice they utilize chiropractic instruments that remove the "crack and pop" procedure that tend to cause wear to those areas over time. The massage therapist did a great job and made me feel comfortable as well. Overall excellent experience and I'm feeling better after just one visit!

When I came in to hear of their adjustment techniques, I thought I was waiting my time. After a few visits, i quickly realized that was not the case at all! I began for migraines and back pain and had visits weekly, I am now to just maintenance visits monthly or so. Everyone in the practice is nice and personable! An adjustment and massage will fix me up everytime! Highly recommend!

I couldn't breathe, let alone walk, without agonizing pain. Having dealt with sciatica for 30 years I know how to tend to it, but this episode was different and I was deteriorating fast. Something was really wrong. After months of prescriptions, diagnostics, injections and crippling worsening pain, triple-disc fusion was recommended. A devastating option.
Then I found Wellness First. After my consult with Dr. Rob, treatment with Dr. Kelly, and some massage therapy, I'm back to my baseline with NO surgery. And I will continue my care with them because they truly do care AND they know what they're doing. Never once were they pushy, as we all hear and fear about the industry. You do what's right for you. Chiropractic care really works. Just give it a chance. They got me back on my feet, and I can't thank them enough.

I could not be more pleased with my experience at Wellness First. This was my first contact with a chiropractor and honestly, I regret having taken so long to get here. If I had known how much stress and tension I hauled around needlessly over the course of nearly 48 years, I would have made this aspect of my personal care as regularly maintained as dental health.
In my case, overexertion in a new fitness regimen resulted in stabbing pain in my lower back. Wellness First was able to schedule my first visit within 24- hours of my call. New patient orientation with Dr. Rob was highly informative and I left with valuable insights about my own neurological and vertebral health as well as a greater understanding of this highly-specialized medical science.
The focus of the treatment plan was not only on healing my injury but educating me on the importance of preventive treatment to thwart unnecessary complications as I age. All COVID-19 precautions were carefully exercised throughout every facet of my treatment which eased those anxieties for me. After patiently answering my questions and outlining the proposed care plan, I commenced "muscle work" with Stephanie.
It was incredible! I should NOT have waited so long to prioritize this self-care. Though I can only attest to the skillfulness of one massage therapist, I'm told the entire cadre are equally gifted. I have encouraged a number of my relatives and friends locally to make appointments (PROACTIVELY) at Wellness First. I think you owe it to yourself, as well.

This is such a great practice. I have been a patient here for 7 years. They treat me for my scoliosis, migraines as well as neck and back issues from being a dental hygienist. Dr. Rob and Kelly Donelly are amazing. Very family oriented. The care is quality for sure. It is easy to get an appointment and even change it if needed. The massages are great too. I highly recommend this practice if you have any back, neck or other issues. They can address it and help you maintain being pain free.
