Trish Pettapiece, DC

I started seeing Pettapiece and Taylor back in 2008 because I was having terrible back and sciatic pain while pregnant. They were very gentle with me while always taking care of my complaints. I love that they never pushed services on you. I’ve been to other chiropractors where it seems like a generic statement for them to tell you that you need to come in 3 times per week for eternity. Pettapiece and Taylor have always ASKED me how I feel and tell me to call in if something flares up. I appreciate that they aren’t sales people. I saw Pettapiece and Taylor all through my 2^nd pregnancy 2010 – 2011, I don’t think I’d trust any other chiropractor during such an important time. They have a table that raises and lowers and have a breakaway stomach area. Taylor did my feet during pregnancy and even offered to show my husband areas to massage my back to help relieve pain. Pettapiece does a minute or two of cranial sacral theraphy during her sessions and it’s so relaxing! Last year I started going to a chiro closer to my home/​work …but funny story the one I choose (Dr. Ball at Smith Chiro) was actually mentored by Pettapiece and Taylor! I’ve recommended my dad, mom, uncle, grandfather and brother in law and they’ve all had good experiences. If you live in the Poulsbo area, or work at Bangor it’s easy to swing by their practice– check them out!

I’ve been coming here for about 2 years and it’s great. The best part about this place is that they can always get you in the same day if you call because you are in dire need or relief. They have never failed me.
I’ve tried to get a Chiro closer to where I live now and that was a joke, 3 – 4 weeks for an appointment even if you are in pain, in addition the other place left me waiting in the waiting area for almost an hour past my appointment time. Pettapiece and Taylor are always on time and the receptionist will always call you before if there is a delay or if they can get you in earlier.
They have an adjustment table that is mechanical so you don’t have to get up and down on your own, perfect for those who are in pain and have limited mobility. You just lean on the table standing vertically and they lower the table for you, and when they are done they stand the table back up, no work on your part.
Both Chiropractors in this office are very good at what they do and always keep you informed of what they are going to do and explain in detail your condition. Also the office is kid friendly and they have toys available for the little ones that can be brought into the treatment room with you.
Even though I live on Bainbridge now I still drive to Poulsbo for my Chiropractor, totally worth it.
