Where We Are in Relation to Clive
We want Clive patients to know exactly where we are. True Life Wellness is not located inside Clive city limits. Our office is in Waukee at 14225 University Avenue, Suite 118, just west of Clive where Waukee, Clive, and West Des Moines meet, and just north of Des Moines Golf & Country Club. For most Clive residents, that means a short, simple drive west on University Avenue, without heading into downtown Des Moines.
That location makes us a practical choice for Clive families who want an experienced chiropractor close to home, school, or work without sacrificing the thorough, individualized care they are looking for.
Why Clive Patients Choose True Life Wellness
Clive is a community that values staying active, whether that means walking and biking the trails, coaching youth sports, or keeping up with a busy household. When back pain, neck stiffness, or an old injury gets in the way, patients from Clive come to us for a few key reasons:
- Gonstead precision: Dr. Tyler uses Gonstead chiropractic, a specific system of analysis and hands-on adjusting that corrects the exact areas of the spine that need care.
- A thorough first visit: Full spine and motion study X-rays are taken in our office when clinically appropriate, so your care plan is based on clear findings rather than guesswork.
- Care for the whole family: We see infants, children, teens, expecting mothers, and adults, so the whole family can be cared for in one office.
- An honest assessment: Dr. Tyler will tell you whether he believes he can help, and if he accepts your case, we offer a 100% money-back guarantee.
- Efficient visits: Routine adjustment visits are usually completed in about 15 minutes, which fits into a busy Clive schedule.
Family Chiropractic Care for Clive Households
Many of the Clive families we care for start with one family member and end up bringing everyone in. Gonstead care is adapted to each person’s age and size, which makes it a natural fit for family care.
Children and Teens
Our pediatric chiropractic care uses very light, specific pressure for infants and children. Parents from Clive bring their kids to us for posture concerns, sports-related strains, headaches, and spinal checkups as children grow. We also provide scoliosis evaluation and monitoring for children and teens.
Pregnancy and Postpartum
For expecting and new moms, our prenatal and postnatal chiropractic care combines Gonstead and the Webster Technique to support pelvic balance and comfort during pregnancy and recovery after delivery.
Active Adults
Running, golf, weekend sports, and long days at a desk all place stress on the spine. We help Clive adults with back pain, neck pain, sciatica, shoulder pain, and knee pain, with a focus on restoring proper motion so you can stay active.

Conditions We Help Clive Patients With
Our Gonstead analysis looks for the structural cause of your symptoms, which is why patients from Clive see us for a wide range of concerns, including headaches and migraines, auto injuries and whiplash, work injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, TMJ, and vertigo.

What to Expect as a New Patient From Clive
Getting started is simple. Your first visit begins with a no-charge consultation with Dr. Tyler, where he listens to your health concerns and goals. If care is appropriate, your assessment includes full spine X-rays, motion study X-rays, a chiropractic exam, and a functional exam of your feet and posture.
On your second visit, usually within a day or two, Dr. Tyler reviews your findings, explains what he sees, and recommends a care plan if he believes he can help. From there, routine visits are quick and focused. Learn more on our New Patients page and ask about our new patient special.
