Pediatric, Prenatal & Family Chiropractor
Holistic, neurologically based chiropractic care to enrich parenthood & childhood experiences.
Chiropractic care does not treat specific conditions. Rather, it helps to restore normal physiological function by reviving your own healing abilities.
We recognize that signs and symptoms are simply expressions of the communication between the nervous system and all the body’s other systems — circulatory, digestive, excretory, hormonal, glandular, immunological, muscular, reproductive, respiratory, and skeletal. Effective communication between these systems depends on optimal nervous system function.
We provide gentle, specific spinal adjustments in order to
reduce interference to the nervous system
release physical, emotional & mental stress patterns
allow the brain to better communicate with the body
promote optimal healing conditions in the body
Our Mission
To empower self-discovery and provide compassionate, informed chiropractic care to families so they may live with more joy, ease & awareness.
Our Vision
A joyful, thriving community of educated and empowered families that live at their highest potential.
Our Purpose
To support individual health autonomy through education of normal human development and holistic chiropractic care.
“Unbounded awareness is the reservoir of possibilities.”
-Deepak Chopra
Meet Your Chiropractor / Kelli
Dr. Kelli-jo Richard was born and raised down the road in Eunice, LA. She graduated from Louisiana State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in 2014 and went on to attend Parker University in Dallas, TX. She completed her clinical internship serving veterans at the Martinsburg VA Hospital in West Virginia and graduated in 2020 with her Doctorate in Chiropractic. She furthered her understanding of the nervous system by achieving a master’s degree in Neuroscience in 2020.
Fun Fact!
Dr. Kelli’s first adjustment was in chiropractic school! She initially pursued the profession because of its unique, holistic approach to pain relief but quickly began to realize that chiropractic offered much more. Now, above all else, she respects the brain-body connection and its capacity for self-healing and adaptation.
Her pursuit to become an expert in family wellness included over 200 hours of intensive prenatal and pediatric specific coursework. She is Webster Certified and CACCP (Certified by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics) by the ICPA.
Dr. Kelli has returned home with a vision to grow alongside this community and to guide families on their way to optimal health. Her sincerest hope is for you to become an active participant in your wellbeing—listen to your body, ask questions, be heard, be well.
Outside of the office you’ll find her…
traveling, reading, researching (Enneagram 5…IYKYK), trying new recipes from The Defined Dish, or just trying to keep up with her daughter, Scotti-Jo!
Our Services
Adult Chiropractic
TRC’s holistic approach to chiropractic includes an assessment of the body’s individual systems to determine how effectively they are working together. Nervous system-focused chiropractic addresses areas of the body that aren’t effectively communicating with the brain via specific spinal adjustments. When that communication is restored, your potential is endless! Chiropractic can alleviate pain and symptoms, but most importantly, it increases your overall function. Whether you are looking to embrace wellness care with a proactive approach or want to tackle some persisting issues first, we are here to support you through it all.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Both mom and baby experience the stress (and sometimes trauma) of birth, which is why we believe every child deserves a healthy start in life. Consistent chiropractic care maintains and supports the integrity of the nervous system. Well-adjusted kids grow into healthy adults who function and live at their highest potential. They thrive mentally, physically and socially due to an increased awareness of themselves & the environment around them. These kiddos can better adapt and overcome when faced with stressors like injury, illness, toxins, emotional stress, etc. Chiropractic adjustments for infants and children of all ages are safe, gentle, & specific.
Prenatal & Postpartum Chiropractic
Preparing for and recovering from birth is a huge, magnificent life event and should be treated as such! You can walk into motherhood feeling joyful, comfortable and confident when there is connection—within yourself and with your baby! Chiropractic care throughout pregnancy facilitates the brain-body connection with specific spinal adjustments.
We are certified in Webster Technique, a specific analysis and adjustment of the pelvis used to facilitate pelvic balancing and optimal function. We look forward to serving you and your growing family!

FAQs
-
Once you schedule your new member appointment here, you will receive an email with the necessary paperwork to complete online before your visit. This allows the doctor to review the information thoroughly, so your consultation and exam is as detailed and efficient as possible.
For your first session Dr. Kelli will sit down with you to discuss your health history, challenges, questions and goals for you or your family. Following the consultation, a physical exam will be performed with a focus on evaluating and assessing nervous system function.
Your initial visit will last 45-minutes and consists of a detailed consultation, examination, Report of Findings & adjustment.
Dr. Kelli will then go over your history and exam findings (ROF) with you and discuss any questions/concerns including:
What did we find?
What do the findings mean?
What is my suggested care plan?
How much?
Finally, if you choose to accept care with TRC and your history/exam findings do not warrant a need for additional imaging/tests, you will receive your first adjustment!

The Reservoir Chiropractic does NOT accept insurance because we don’t want insurance dictating the care we provide. Insurance companies are centered around treating the effects of disease and injury rather than preventative or wellness care. They were designed for the conventional model of health care, which generally addresses symptoms with drugs and invasive medical interventions.
Nervous system-focused chiropractic care aims to advance health rather than lessen sickness. Thus, the insurance model is not in alignment with our values, nor does it improve our practice members’ experience. However, if you do have insurance that covers chiropractic care and are willing to file yourself, we will happily provide you with the necessary documentation for reimbursement.
We do accept HSA and FSA.
If you have any further questions regarding insurance, HSA, FSA or our fees please reach out by phone, text or email!

Depending on each patient and their specific needs and/or desires, a variety of techniques can be used to deliver a nervous system-focused adjustment including Diversified, Thompson Drop, Activator, MC2, & Webster Technique.
-
As many of our practice members are expecting mamas and kiddos, we do not take X-rays in house. However, after a thorough examination the chiropractor will determine whether X-rays are medically necessary based on current evidence-based guidelines. If so, you will be referred to a trusted provider for imaging prior to your first adjustment.
Policies
-
There is a $60 non-refundable deposit for initial consultations. Payment of the deposit must be made for the appointment to be booked. This deposit will be applied towards the total cost of your first visit. For established practice members, a credit card will need to be kept on file.
-
We recognize that life happens, and situations may arise where you need to cancel your appointment or reschedule. However, your appointment time is reserved just for you and/or your family members so please if you can’t make it or need to reschedule, we ask that you provide 24 hours notice. This allows us serve other practice members during that time slot and keeps our practice running smoothly.
If you cancel or reschedule before your appointment’s 24-hour window, there will be no charge.
Cancellations, rescheduled visits, and no-shows made less than 24 hours from your appointment time will be charged the FULL amount of the service booked.
You can make changes to your scheduled appointments through our online scheduling portal here or you can give us a call to make those changes for you. Thank you for understanding!!
