Jemison Family Chiropractic

Jemison Family Chiropractic Jemison Family Chiropractic is a family-owned and operated chiropractic office located in Lancaster Dr. Dave shares the office with his wife, Doreen Jemison.

Jemison Family Chiropractic is a family owned and operated chiropractic office on the charming Gallery Row of Downtown Lancaster, PA. Dr. David Jemison has been the owner and clinician for over 30 years, with a Doctorate of Chiropractic from Pennsylvania Straight Chiropractic. Known as Dr. Dave to his many patients, he has seen tremendous healing from auto accidents, sports injuries, chronic pain, and everyday wear and tear. He often uses the Koren Specific Technique, and can discuss with patients what type of care they prefer, as he can use a tool to adjust rather than the traditional manipulations. He works with many different insurance companies, and a diverse patient body, as many patients have been with him since the office opened over 25 years ago! Doreen is a Licensed Massage Therapist who treats patients using Pfrimmer deep muscle massage. Doreen also uses craniosacral therapy, jin shin do and other massage techniques in her practice. Doreen offers flexible hours to work around her patients' schedules.

Sunday is the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. After that date, our days gradually become lighter. I don’t know about you, but to me light is a strong indicator of hope. Seeing the sunlight bounce off this star by our front window made my heart feel all sparkly inside!
Just a few notes about our office schedule next week:
Christmas Eve we will close at 3pm.
12/26 we are closed.
12/29 Dr. Dave will see clients until 1pm.
New Year’s Eve we will close at 3pm as well.
January 2 back to regular hours!

We do offer gift certificates if you need an idea for a special someone in your life. (I think I can even do email versions now- I am fancy like that!)

And dear friends, May your holiday season be one of light and hope! We appreciate you.♥️

Can you even believe it is December 10?! I am getting the w***y worms as I realize the number of items on my lists to be checked off. I found this on FB and thought it was a great prompt. (And have done none of them!😆) But, it is key to make time to re-center and recalibrate. I have started knitting again and trying to manage my time online. Do you have any rituals to quiet yourself?

Three years ago we did a thing- running a turkey trot on Thanksgiving morning. Now Dave and I are gearing up for an 8K in January that we will run in Key West. Ok, friends, we need all the tips you've got for senior runners. Our goal is to wog (walk/jog) without injury. We are used to ambling the city streets with a recalcitrant beagle, but we need to step up our game. Any thoughts? And please know all prayers are appreciated!😊

Happy Halloween, friends! May you receive full sized candy bars and lots of Reese's peanut butter cups (and no fun sized Mounds bars.) Do they even still make them anymore?!
Cheer on the Blue Jays in the World Series since we have a Pennsylvania boy pitching for them. And don't forget to "fall back" Saturday night. 😊

This pic is more than a little dorky. That hat doesn’t even really fit, but it did match my sundress pretty perfectly. My expression is goofy and I can see all my wrinkles. But my eyes are sparkling with joy. It embodies this quote by the German poet Samuel Ullman, “Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”

My main request for my continued 60th birthday celebration was to be together with our kids and Jade for a few days. So, the office will be closed Friday, October 10 as we meet up in Michigan to kayak and hang together. I do not know the last time my lovies have all slept in the same house!! Squeal! I am embracing my enthusiasm- wrinkles and all!💗 May y’all do the same.

Whew- what a whirlwind! We saw parades (just happened to be here during Edinburgh’s 900th birthday!), heard bagpipes, and ate incredible Indian food. Scotland has a vibe all its own- straightforward with a side of snark. We so appreciate the Scots’ hospitality and pride of their heritage.
But we are ready to be back on Prince Street to see y’all and to snuggle our beagle girl. (Plus I am really craving a strong cup of good coffee.😉) As you can see, Dr. Dave cannot resist adjusting any spine he sees.

Just two folks getting ready to travel to Scotland! We have read some tour books, watched YouTube videos and bought merino wool items for chilly days. And check out my new sexy shoes!!😂

The office will be closed September 12-24. I have two massage openings on Wednesday at 9am or 1pm if anyone wants to pop in. Dr. Dave’s phone is unable to receive messages in Scotland, so don’t be offended if he doesn’t respond to you. We will be back on September 26 with stories of Highland Games and the Isle of Skye. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Have you ever had an inexplicable desire to travel to a specific place? For me, it has always been Scotland! I mean, men in kilts aside🤣, there is something about its landscape and its folks’ sense of humor that creates an almost magnetic pull for me. So- WE ARE HEADING TO SCOTLAND!!
Eeek!
So, please plan ahead if you want to schedule a massage or an adjustment. The office will be closed September 12-24. We have Highland coos and Glasgow murals to see (and perhaps a dram of whisky to taste.) And please send any suggestions for hidden gems of Edinburgh or Glasgow. (We are doing a bus tour of Inverness and the Highlands.)

As my 60th birthday quickly approaches, I find myself being introspective and contemplative. The mantra that keeps running through my mind is, “Learn to pivot with grace.” I recognize that I have held beliefs that no longer serve me. Some are minor and dorky. Others are lifelong and deeply ingrained. These two pics show two of the inconsequential beliefs that I am releasing:
1. Jigsaw puzzles are dumb and boring.
2. The DE beaches always outshine the NJ beaches.

Now for the harder work on some of my other false opinions. (I will need to get back to you on those!)🤭

Happy Wednesday, y’all. We are here on Prince ready to massage your muscles and check your spines.

This pic is from our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding a few weeks ago. Dr. Dave and I had the honor of being lifted up during the hora. I researched what the symbolism of the hora meant. This dance is first done by lifting the newly married couple. Then the parents of the bride and groom are similarly raised. It is about surrounding the family in love and blessing. It is certainly not something that we practice at Mennonite weddings, but as you can see from my expression, I loooved every minute of it!

As we look ahead to celebrating Independence Day, our hearts are heavy as recognize the lack of community and mutuality in our nation and our world. So, my prayer this July 4th is that we can find our common ground and that even if traditions or practices are not comfortable for us, we can be open to them. Our leaders are misguided and have lost the thread. May we weave together as a community of Americans and stand firmly in the battle for everyone’s independence on July 4th and every day.

The office will be closed on July 4. We are heading to the bungalow to sit on the side porch and hike in the woods. See y’all next week.

Pictured here are some of the repurposed flowers from our daughter’s wedding. We are grinning broadly and still a little weepy, but dang, that was a magical day!
Regular hours in the office this week. Pop in and see us.

We’re not “lion” when we say it is an absolute privilege to provide chiropractic and massage care for you. 😝 Celebrating Dr. Dave and fathers everywhere with a bad dad joke as we come into Fathers Day weekend. We are so thankful for the dads who raised us and the solid values they instilled in us.
Just as a heads up, Doreen will only be seeing clients Monday and Tuesday next week (June 16 and 17.) Dr. Dave will see patients through lunch on Friday, June 20. We are preparing for our daughter and new son’s wedding!! Squeal! If you think of it, say a prayer and send good vibes for a rain free, low humidity day on June 21 as we would love to have the ceremony outdoors as planned. (We know that is no small wish this summer!)
