Wonderful place with very nice and sincere people. Unlike other chiropractic clinics I've been to, this one targets the root cause of the pain instead of just performing basic adjustments for temporary relief. I feel that the people of Ocala Spine and Injury genuinely want to solve your issues instead of maintaining a regular clientele. Have been and will continue to go again when I need help.

You will not find a friendlier staff anywhere! They have genuine concern and compassion for their patients . Dr. Fontaine is the ABSOLUTE best. From routine adjustments, bike injuries, fender benders, plantar fasciitis, to therapy promoting growth for broken bones, this clinic has taken thorough & excellent care of my family for many years.
