Schomaker Chiropractic Clinic has served Elk River, MN families since 1996 with thorough exams, gentle adjustments, and advanced spinal decompression from Dr. Troy Schomaker.
Chiropractic care restores normal motion to spinal joints that have stopped moving properly. When those joints move again, pressure comes off the nerves — and the pain, stiffness and numbness they were producing settles down.
Every new patient at our Elk River clinic starts with a consultation and exam, so you know what is wrong and what it will take to correct it before treatment begins.
1. Consultation
Tell us what happened and what you cannot do anymore.
2. Exam
Orthopedic, neurological and postural testing. X-ray if indicated.
3. Report
A straight answer on whether we can help, and how long it takes.
4. Care
Adjustments, decompression, laser or acupuncture — whatever your case needs.
Dr. Troy Schomaker, DC grew up in Eagan, Minnesota and studied at the University of Minnesota-Duluth, the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, and Northwestern College of Chiropractic. He has been in private practice in Elk River, MN since 1996.
After graduation, I started my private practice in Elk River MN then soon after got married and had my son and daughter. Seeing our kids grow up with awesome chiropractic care on a regular basis and allowing them to be far healthier than most was also a blessing.
Treat the mechanical cause instead of managing symptoms with medication.

Bruce Norton
"Excellent team! Friendly, flexible and always ready to help.
On the technical side of things they helped me solve a severe, on going pain in my back and leg with a decompression treatment. A mix of chiro back adjustments, decompression, and a timely follow-up maintenance routine.
Thank you 👍"

"I cant really put into words how helpful Dr. Troy is and has been. By saying he is a great chiropractor and you should all go see him isnt quite enough. Me and my wife have been to a lot of chiropractors. Dr. Troy has been better than all of them combined. I sleep better. I see a light in my wife's eyes that I havent seen in a while. She has never felt better after seeing him just a few times. He knows his stuff. We are very thankful to have found him. From 2 farmers from Elk River, thank you"
