SpineWerX: Where Your Health and Comfort Matter

If you've been dealing with a health concern for a while, you deserve clear answers, a thorough assessment, and care that respects both your comfort and your goals. At SpineWerX, people often tell us they feel heard, understood, and well informed from the moment they walk in. Every person begins with a detailed evaluation and a clear explanation of what we find. If you prefer to talk first, a complimentary consultation is available so you can ask questions before booking a full assessment.

Care Designed Around Your Comfort and Goals

Many individuals visit our clinic after trying other approaches without the clarity or progress they hoped for. Working with Lindsay chiropractor Dr. Philip Croutch means your first visit includes a structured, unrushed assessment and recommendations based entirely on what we learn during your appointment. Our care plans are flexible and always aligned with your comfort level.

We use a blend of gentle hands-on chiropractic methods and modern clinical techniques that can be adapted for seniors, people with arthritis, or those who prefer low force options.

Meet Dr. Croutch

Dr. Croutch has cared for the Lindsay community since 1984. His interest in posture, spinal mechanics, and how it affects common spine, joint and nerve degenerative problems, evolved from years of seeing people return with recurring concerns. This inspired ongoing study in structural rehabilitation and long-term spinal health. Patients value his clear explanations, calm confidence, and thoughtful approach to each case.

Consultation and Honest Guidance

If you are dealing with long-standing back concerns, nerve-related discomfort, or limited mobility, or if you simply want a second opinion, a phone consultation allows you to explore whether a full assessment is right for you. You will always receive honest, practical information so you can make a confident choice.
