Dr. Scott Burtis completed his chiropractic education in 1987. For a year, he worked with Dr. Robert Thatcher, a leader in the chiropractic profession. Following this vital training, Dr. Burtis decided to open his own practice. He and his wife, Monica, began looking for the right opportunity. They discovered that a chiropractor in Fairmont was soon retiring. During their first visit, they interviewed the mayor and other people in town to get their take on how it was to live here.
They loved the close-knit feel of the town, excellent school districts and the beautiful lakes that surround the area. Their family decided to make Fairmont their new home, and Burtis Chiropractic Center was opened in 1988.
Who We Are
We are a family-focused wellness chiropractic office for Fairmont and Martin County. Dr. Burtis has had the honor of working with many patients of all ages and conditions. He has especially enjoyed working in areas that most people don’t commonly associate with chiropractic. These include pediatrics, senior health, athletes and wellness.
Dr. Burtis feels his greatest honor and privilege has been working as an instrument of God’s healing through the many miracles he has seen in his office.
Our Philosophy
Our integrate health care goes far beyond your spine. Instead of looking solely at your back or a particular area of the body, we focus on the integrity of your nervous system. As the master healer of the body, your nervous system has control over every other function. By addressing the health of your nervous system, we can make improvements on a wide variety of health concerns.
Why Your Nervous System Matters
Most people don’t realize that since the nervous system coordinates everything in your body, making sure it operates at 100% can make a difference in several aspects of your well-being.
For example, one of our patients was a little boy who lost his hearing due to an antibiotic reaction. Six months into being adjusted by Dr. Burtis, his hearing was back. The boy had barely been speaking since he couldn’t hear anything. It wasn’t long before his mom came in crying tears of happiness and reported that her son said, “Mommy, I love you.”
