Trusted chiropractic care for Stryker
About 23 minutes (17 miles) from our Defiance office
Between its restored railroad depot, the Heritage Days parade put on by the Stryker Area Heritage Council and the Tiffin River flowing past Knights Landing, Stryker holds on to its small-town character. It is also a place where people work hard, often with their hands. If that work has left you dealing with back pain, a lingering work injury or a sore elbow from repetitive tool use, the trip down OH-191 and Stever Road to Defiance takes a little over 20 minutes.
Our approach is to find the source of the problem first. After an exam, we explain what is going on and talk through options such as chiropractic care, spinal decompression for a disc injury, and shockwave therapy for tendon pain that has not settled with rest. You will know the plan and the reasons behind it before care begins.
We also help with injuries from car accidents and sports. Our auto accident care addresses whiplash and other crash-related pain, and athlete care supports Stryker High School players who want to recover and get back to their season. Appointments are available Monday through Thursday, 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM. Not sure whether chiropractic is the right fit for your problem? Call (419) 785-4215 and ask, or book online to get started.

Why Stryker chooses Integrated Chiropractic
Stryker grew up around the railroad. It was the first Williams County town with rail facilities, and in 1966 the experimental Black Beetle rail car set a rail speed record of 183.68 mph on a straight, flat run that finished at Stryker. The old depot now houses the Stryker Area Heritage Center. Today the village of about 1,260 people blends manufacturing work, with furniture and plastics among the leading local lines of employment, and the farm fields of Springfield Township. Getting to us is an easy rural drive: OH-191 south, through Evansport, down Stever Road to OH-15 and into Defiance.
What we offer is straightforward. We take time to understand your pain and your daily routine, examine you, and explain what we find before suggesting anything. Your plan may combine adjustments, rehab exercises, spinal decompression for disc problems, or shockwave therapy for nagging tendon pain. Stryker Panthers athletes, workers coming off a long week on the line, and anyone hurt in a crash on a county road are all welcome here. We see patients Monday through Thursday, 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM, so a visit can fit before or after a shift.
What we help with
Common reasons Stryker patients come in
Shop-floor and line-work strain
Furniture, plastics and metal work often means standing, lifting and repeating the same motion all shift. If an ache from the job will not quit, we can assess it properly.
Learn more →Disc injuries
A heavy lift at work or around a Springfield Township farm can irritate a spinal disc. We offer non-surgical options, including spinal decompression.
Learn more →Elbow pain from repetitive tool use
Gripping and running the same tool hour after hour can inflame the tendons around the elbow. We look at the elbow, wrist and shoulder together.
Learn more →Knee pain in student-athletes
Eight-man football, basketball and volleyball put a lot of cutting and jumping on young knees. We help Stryker High School players recover and stay in the game.
Learn more →Whiplash after a crash
Even a low-speed collision on a rural road can strain the neck, and symptoms sometimes show up days later. Getting checked early is a good idea.
Learn more →Sciatica
Pain that shoots from the low back down the leg can make the ride down OH-191 feel twice as long. We work to find and ease the source.

What our patients say
“I've been going to IMG for over a year and a half. I've been through the PT program as well as receiving chiropractic care. I highly recommend both! When my toddler started struggling to sleep through the night, the only people I trusted to take care of him were Dr. John and Dr. Megan. The entire staff is amazing and so personable! We enjoy the kids' room and it's also great because we can both get adjusted in there. It's not painful, as you can see, he recently slept through an entire appointment with Dr. Megan! It's totally worth the 40 minute drive. I can't recommend them enough.”
“Wonderful staff. Great Dr’s. On my 7th round of chiropractic and therapy sessions and already so much improvement.”
“Wonderful Chiropractic Clinic and rehab center. Everyone there from the front desk to the doctors and rehab personnel, are friendly and considerate. I was hesitant at first even going but I’m glad I did. My consultation was thorough and diagnosed my problem. A rehabilitation program was set up, according to my schedule. Between the rehabilitation and regular adjustments, I’m now moving more freely and pain free. I’m doing things better than I have in years. Everyone here is friendly and supportive. I encourage anyone to at least come and have a consultation and see if they can help you. If they can help me at 72 years of age, they can assist you.”
