Raised in a conventional medical household with a father who practiced medicine for over 50 years, Dr. David Norris was initially on the path to medical school. A chance encounter with chiropractic care while helping a friend recover from a car accident opened the door to a new way of thinking — one that emphasized healing the body naturally and treating root causes.
Dr. Norris went on to earn his Doctor of Chiropractic degree, followed by a Master of Science in Human Nutrition. He later achieved board certification as a Clinical Nutritionist through the American Clinical Board of Nutrition. With 18+ years of experience, he now blends chiropractic care, functional medicine, and personalized nutrition to help patients take control of their health — without relying solely on medications or invasive procedures.
His mission: to make high-quality care affordable and accessible for anyone seeking a better path to wellness.

From Conventional Roots to Holistic Healing
Raised in a traditional medical family — my father was a practicing MD for over 50 years — I planned to follow in his footsteps and attend medical school. But everything changed when I began taking a friend to chiropractic appointments after an accident. What started with skepticism turned into curiosity, then into passion. Watching her recovery, and hearing directly from her chiropractor, opened my eyes to the potential of this natural, hands-on form of healing.
A Path Built on Passion and Perseverance
After earning my BS in Biology at Marshall University, I dove into the demanding chiropractic curriculum. Toward the end of the program, a professor encouraged me to explore nutrition. Initially hesitant, I soon discovered another passion that reshaped my career. I went on to earn a Master of Science in Human Nutrition, and later board certification as a Clinical Nutritionist through the American Clinical Board of Nutrition.
Experience, Empathy, and a Deeper Why
My journey hasn’t just been academic — it’s deeply personal. I watched my father suffer with Parkinson’s disease and often wonder if my training could have helped ease his decline. Years later, I faced my own health crisis after a severe reaction to an antibiotic left me bedridden for 10 weeks. I credit non-conventional approaches for my recovery and for avoiding lasting disability.
Purpose-Driven Practice
For the past 18 years, I’ve combined chiropractic and functional medicine to help patients discover root causes, recover naturally, and reclaim their quality of life. I believe in making high-quality care accessible and affordable, and I bring every lesson — personal and professional — into my work with patients.
