About Van Meter Health

Van Meter Health is a movement-focused health clinic built around one simple goal: help people move better, feel better, and stay better.

Led by Dr. Ryan Kelly, D.C., CSCS, we take a practical, evidence-based approach to care that goes beyond temporary relief. Every visit starts with understanding how your body moves, where it is breaking down, and why symptoms keep coming back. From there, treatment is personalized, intentional, and focused on long-term results.

Our services include chiropractic care, dry needling, rehabilitation, soft tissue therapy, massage, functional training, and performance-based care for athletes and active individuals. Whether you are dealing with pain, recovering from injury, or trying to perform at a higher level, care is designed to meet you where you are and progress you forward.

Van Meter Health follows a clear treatment philosophy: Relieve pain, rebuild function, and reinforce resilient movement. The goal is not just to get you out of discomfort, but to give you the tools and capacity to stay active and confident in your body.

Located in the heart of Van Meter, Iowa, we are proud to serve our local community and surrounding areas with thoughtful, high-quality care that respects both your time and your goals.
