SERVING PATIENTS FOR 17 YEARS
Gentle Touch Chiropractic
In 2005, Dr. Hockstra established Gentle Touch Chiropractic LLC and immediately began serving patients in and around Tyson's Corner. A few years later, the practice moved into its permanent location in downtown McLean, a private, quiet space allowing Dr. Hockstra to give personalized care to his clients.
In 2022, we expanded west to offer the same individualized care to patients in the Middleburg region.

MOVEMENT FOR LIFE
Our Unique Approach
At Gentle Touch Chiropractic, we believe in restoring health and wellness to your whole body. At every appointment, patients can expect one-on-one care from the chiropractor for the entire session. We listen to our patients to make sure you receive the best care possible.
