Trusted chiropractic care for Arnolds Park
About 12 minutes (5.3 mi) from our Spirit Lake office
Arnolds Park sits about 12 minutes south of our office on US-71, and Big Spirit Chiropractic is glad to care for the people who live and work there, from the south shore of West Lake Okoboji near the amusement park and Maritime Museum to homes along Lake Minnewashta and the Gar Lakes. Our focus is natural, hands-on care for the whole family.
Much of Arnolds Park’s working life revolves around tourism: running rides, serving at restaurants and resorts, and keeping the Roof Garden and lakefront busy all summer. Long shifts on your feet and a lot of lifting can add up to back pain, neck pain and sore shoulders. We start with a full exam and build a plan of chiropractic care around what we find, and for disc-related low back and leg pain we also offer spinal decompression.
Off the clock, locals are boating and fishing on the Okobojis, riding the Arnolds Park City Trail and the Iowa Great Lakes Trail, or heading out in hunting season, and our athlete care helps active people keep moving. If a collision on US-71 leaves you sore, we offer auto accident care, and kids are welcome with our pediatric care. When you’re ready, book an appointment and ask about our new patient special.
Proudly serving: the south shore of West Lake Okoboji, the Lake Minnewashta shoreline, homes around Upper and Lower Gar Lakes, Pillsbury Point, neighboring Milford.
Local, trusted care
Why Arnolds Park chooses Big Spirit Chiropractic
Arnolds Park calls itself the City of Five Lakes, with West and East Lake Okoboji, Lake Minnewashta and Upper and Lower Gar Lakes all touching town, and the local economy still leans on tourism. From the rides and concessions at Arnolds Park Amusement Park to the resorts, restaurants and shows at the Roof Garden, a lot of local work means long shifts on your feet, lifting and repetitive tasks, often packed into a busy summer season. That can settle into the lower back, neck and shoulders. Our office is about 12 minutes and 5.3 miles north on US-71, and every new patient starts with a consultation and a full exam, with X-rays if needed, so your care plan is built around what is actually going on.
Life in Arnolds Park also happens outdoors: boating and fishing on the Okobojis, riding the Arnolds Park City Trail where it links to the Iowa Great Lakes Trail, summer concerts at Preservation Plaza and hunting season in the fall. Our doctors share those interests. Dr. Dalton Frick enjoys hunting, fishing, the outdoors and the gym, and he combines natural chiropractic care, spinal decompression therapy and therapeutic exercise to address underlying causes. Dr. Paige Steffen Frick, originally from southwest Minnesota, enjoys time on the lakes and brings supportive, personalized care to every patient.
