A neighborhood practice, built on attention.
Nelson Chiropractic is a local Tempe practice offering personalized, hands-on chiropractic care. The focus is simple: listen first, communicate clearly, and provide professional care in a setting that feels comfortable rather than clinical.
Care here is shaped around the person in front of the doctor — not a rigid protocol. That means time to talk through what you're experiencing, an honest assessment of whether chiropractic care fits your situation, and straightforward guidance on what comes next.

Chiropractor · Tempe, Arizona
Dr. Donald L. Nelson provides chiropractic care at the practice on South Rural Road in Tempe. Patients are seen one-on-one, with each visit beginning from a conversation about how they're feeling and what brought them in.
The approach is direct and unhurried: assess whether chiropractic care is appropriate, explain what that care involves, and let the patient decide how to move forward — without pressure.
