Chiropractor
Isaac Hill D.C.
Dr. Hill discovered his love for chiropractic while playing basketball in high school in his hometown of Elk River, MN. As a player who chronically rolled his ankle, he thought that was just part of the game. After one particular incident, he was told by a medical doctor that he would be off the court for 6-8 weeks. He decided to get a second opinion from a chiropractor, and after just two weeks of treatment, he was back on the court playing.
Even more amazing: he never rolled his ankle again. After high school he worked for a chiropractor doing massage therapy, and his love for the profession grew deeper. He knew first hand and saw on a daily basis that chiropractic was a powerful way to achieve health and optimum performance.
Dr. Hill moved to Marietta, GA to attend Life University in 2003. There he completed his undergraduate studies in biology. He went on to obtain his Doctor of Chiropractic degree in June 2012. Not only did he complete his required national boards, but he also chose to sit for the physiotherapy board, as physical therapy was an important part of his own healing so many years before. He was offered an associate position with the doctor he had worked for previously in his hometown and gladly accepted the opportunity. Although he had a wonderful experience as an associate, he knew his passion and philosophy would be best utilized in his own practice. In June 2013, Dr. Hill and his wife made the big move to Danville to open Hill Chiropractic.
The practice has ever evolved as Dr. Hill has continued learning how to best serve his patients. He has attended conferences to learn the most effective ways to handle personal injury cases, from both a healthcare and legal standpoints. He has received training on spinal decompression therapy and functional rehab, and he has pursued further education on nutrition, weight loss, and neuropathy. His “whole person approach” to treating his patients means he looks for underlying causes of any disturbance or disruption (which may or may not be causing symptoms at the time), making any necessary recommendations for interventions and lifestyle adjustments that would optimize the conditions for normal function. Using this unique approach, he is able to help his patients to accelerate and/or maintain their journey to good health. Dr. Hill’s goal is to see his patients achieve a pain-free life and have their bodies function the way they were designed to.
Dr. Hill is licensed in the state of Virginia and a member of the Virginia Chiropractic Association. He and his wife, Brandy, live on many acres in the country and look forward to growing their family homestead with their four beautiful children.
