We treat the whole you—connecting physical, emotional, and nutritional health to create a personalized care plan. From chronic pain to stress or fatigue, we guide you toward lasting wellness.
I’ve been a patient at Pfeffer Chiropractic and Functional Health for several years now, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! Dr. Pete and Dr. Mike truly take a functional approach to health—they don’t just treat symptoms but dig into the root causes with chiropractic adjustments, nutritional guidance, and rehab techniques.
I am one of Dr Mike's longest patients. He has seen me through many physical and emotional times. He has been very attentive, done reserch on therapies, anything he xan to help keep me healthy and pain free. I moved 45 miles away 10 years ago and I make that drive 2xs a month to feel great. The suppoert staff is very friendly, helpful, and reasy to answer any questions you may have.
THEY LISTEN TO YOU! Dr Pete treats me for back, neck and head injuries (concussion) I sustained from multiple car accidents, all from inattentive drivers. He truly listens to my needs with my back care, be it, Pulsed EMF, traction, acupuncture, exercises to strengthen my core and explains why he is doing that procedure in detail. My continued care with him means continuing an Active Lifestyle to do the things I want to do and can!!! Dr Mike treats my Nutrition needs through Natural whole food supplements. He too, explains what is going on and why that is happening to you. I have had episodes of tachycardia, thyroid issues, poor gut health, which shows up in so many different ways within our bodies. The Most endearing thing I find with both of these gentlemen, is their knowledge, caring attitudes, and THEY LISTEN TO YOU!! They are constantly looking for new therapies to help each and every one of us patients. "Thank-you to both of you" for my continued good health journey. Jackie Reed
Doctor Mike is nice and funny

very beneficial for me and my golf swing!! gained 20 yards! should have started coming here years ago
The Dr's and staff are so caring and with my wellness and nutrition plan it has kept me feeling good and staying healthy!
Pete has helped me tremendously. The staff is great also!
5/5 across the board! Professionalism, compassion and overall care is top notch! As a veteran who has dealt with on-going pain, I can say with full certainty that this place and Dr. Pete have provided me chiropractic care like no other. I feel like I did before my injuries and I never thought I would again. The care I have received has honestly been life changing. If you are looking for a chiropractor, look no further.
Tremendous staff
I have been going for years! For both chiro and nutrition help. Love all the help!
By far the best chiropractor in the lakes area. So glad I found them
This is hands down the best chiropractic clinic in Alexandria. I have been going here for years now and I haven’t once had a bad experience. As an athlete it has been a game changer for me to have the ability to get the treatments that they offer. It has helped me so much as a player and as person. Overall the staff and doctors are always welcoming and friendly and I enjoy coming here each week!
Wonderful office! Caring team of professionals interested in individuals overall health and nutrition. I’ve been going to Pfeffer Chiropractic now for 5 years with great results.
Dr. Mike has been helping me treat Lymes and a host of other issues over the years. Traditional medicine would have layered prescription on top of prescription to address the symptoms and side effects, not the underlying cause. I’m so grateful to have found Pfeffer Chiropractic when I did, and I can’t recommend them enough!
I have had great results with the adjustments and treatments that I have gotten from Dr Pete and Dr Mike. I would recommend you give them a try for your health needs.
Has taken exceptional care of our family, highly recommend to anyone in need of their services...
Pfeffer Chiropractic has been fantastic for my wellness, along with assisting when injuries occur. Seeing Dr. Mike and the gals in the therapy room (for manual therapy on my neck) every 2 weeks is critical to reducing my headaches, neck pain, and overall keeping me in good condition for my career (quite physical) and hobbies (like horseback riding). Nutrition consults and recommended supplements have also been very beneficial to my overall health and keeping my immune system strong. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Because pain is the last symptom we experience from any injury or condition, it is important to seek chiropractic care even if you are not currently experiencing pain. Regular adjustments do more than keep you pain free; they help your mind and body to perform at their highest level.

Prior to your initial appointment, you will be asked to fill out an in-depth patient history. This is critical, as it helps the Functional Nutrition Practitioner get a complete picture of your health history. At your initial appointment, you and your practitioner will cover this health history and they will ask you additional questions regarding your health. After that appointment, your practitioner will determine what labs and diagnostic tests to order, to best determine what is contributing to your condition.
Once the results are received, you and your practitioner will meet again to review your labs and diagnostics. They will also determine and communicate a course of care to help you with your condition and symptoms. If there are no further questions for the practitioner regarding care, then the finances of the care that they outlined will be covered. We never want to “surprise” a patient with a bill, so we cover the financials upfront. We will also discuss the different payment options available.
Most conditions are seen, and addressed, over a 3-12 month program. The length of the program is determined by the type of condition, the complexity, and how long the patient has had the condition(s). There are some conditions that require periodic follow-ups beyond the 12-month time frame.
Appointment frequency is determined by the Functional Nutrition Practitioner. Obviously, each presenting condition will be taken into consideration. Typically patients will be seen more often initially (every 10-20 days) during the first 1-2 months. As patients begin to improve, visits are moved to monthly, and with more improvement, patients are seen every 1.5-3 months until the condition resolves.
