He sees everyone from newborns and prenatal moms to teens, athletes, and tired parents — and has been voted "Most Loved" chiropractor in the Quad Cities six years in a row.
Howell Chiropractic is a family-focused, nervous-system-centered chiropractic office on Utica Ridge Road in Davenport, Iowa, serving the Quad Cities (Bettendorf, Moline, Rock Island, and surrounding communities). Founded by Dr. Travis Howell — a Palmer College of Chiropractic graduate and Quad Cities native — the practice was inspired by his own daughter's healing journey from chronic ear infections through chiropractic care. We specialize in pediatric, prenatal, and family wellness chiropractic, with gentle, personalized adjustments that focus on the nervous system rather than quick fixes. From newborns and pregnant moms to overstimulated kids, busy parents, and active adults, every patient is treated like family. All new patients start with a complimentary 15-minute Virtual Consultation with Dr. Travis to review history, answer questions, and outline a personalized care plan before the in-office exam — minimizing paperwork and maximizing care.
