Jacquie Keats brings an active-life perspective to her Blacksburg practice

Jacquie Keats knows the appeal of staying active outside the treatment room. Her experience with CrossFit sits alongside a chiropractic career in Blacksburg that began in 2003.

At Keats Family & Sports Chiropractic, she focuses on sports injuries while working with patients whose needs and activity levels vary. The practice begins with a health history and examination, using those findings to shape the next steps.

Keats draws on seven adjusting techniques and also works with joints beyond the spine. Depending on the patient, care may include soft-tissue work, physiotherapy, stretching or exercises. The emphasis is on selecting an approach for the person rather than applying an identical routine to every visit.

Office manager Becky brings experience in customer service, human resources and chiropractic-office operations to the practice’s day-to-day work.

Located on South Main Street, the office provides a local setting for people to discuss pain, movement concerns and activity goals. Treatment decisions are individual, and an initial assessment helps determine whether chiropractic care is appropriate.
