Bay View's Family Chiropractic Office
Maedke Chiropractic Center has been a decades-long staple in Bay View, Milwaukee’s health and wellness community. We focus on supporting families in building a healthy lifestyle starting from birth and beyond.
Specializing in Webster Technique prenatal chiropractic care, we support expecting parents throughout everything pregnancy has to offer – low back pain, round ligament pain, sciatica, migraines, difficulty sleeping, breech fetal positioning.
We continue care into the postpartum period, supporting mothers throughout postpartum recovery and beginning care for the newborn. Starting pediatric chiropractic care at a young age assists in proper growth and development of the child. Pediatric chiropractic adjustments address cranial malformation from birth, colicky babies, breastfeeding or latching issues, delayed developmental milestones, and so much more.
Focused on whole-life, family chiropractic, we treat every member of the family with individualized care plans with safe and effective chiropractic adjusting techniques. We also support patients with posture correction, office and desk ergonomic set ups, improving spinal mobility, acute and chronic pain relief, and maintenance and wellness chiropractic care.

For many years, I’ve been increasingly disappointed with traditional healthcare, which often results in a drug prescription to mask a problem and manage symptoms rather than addressing their root causes. This realization sparked my long-standing interest in wellness and alternative approaches to health.
When I first learned about gentle chiropractic care, its philosophy immediately resonated with me. Working in the field since 2002 has been both beneficial and refreshing. Not only does it align with my personal belief in preventative healthcare, but it has also connected me with a diverse, holistic community that my family benefits from.
I feel honored to be a part of "true" healthcare at this progressive clinic that offers integrated health services. My hope for anyone in search of a family wellness chiropractor is that they land at Maedke Chiropractic Center.
