About Rooted Chiropractic

Family-Centered Practice

Rooted Chiropractic is a family-centered chiropractic and functional medicine practice in Clarendon Hills, IL, owned and operated by Dr. Lauren and Dr. Weston Shelton. We provide gentle, neurologically-based care for every stage of life—from newborns to grandparents and everyone in between.

We specialize in pediatric and prenatal chiropractic care. Dr. Lauren and Dr. Weston both completed extensive training through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), and all three of our doctors are Webster certified. We also support adults with everything from headaches and digestive issues to fatigue, brain fog, and immune challenges—and through Dr. Katrina's specialized training in women's health, thyroid, and advanced blood chemistry, we offer functional medicine services that dig deeper into what's driving your symptoms.

Family Centered About
Our Approach

Our Approach

Our approach centers on the nervous system. When the nervous system is stressed, kids often show it through sleep struggles, digestive issues, big emotions, and developmental challenges. Adults carry it as pain, tension, anxiety, or that general feeling of being stuck. We look at how well the body is regulating and help release stored tension so the brain and body can communicate more clearly.
Care here is personal. We meet you where you are and grow with your family through each season.
