Pregnancy places constant stress on the spine and pelvis, and gentle chiropractic adjustments help maintain proper alignment so the nervous system can support both mom and baby at their best. By reducing tension in the lower back and pelvis, care may improve comfort, mobility, and overall function throughout each trimester. Dr. Josh is Webster Certified with the International Pediatric Chriropractic Association.
Birth is physically demanding—even for babies—and gentle newborn adjustments help support proper spinal alignment and nervous system communication from the very beginning. When the brain and body are connected clearly, babies may experience improved feeding, sleep patterns, and overall calmness.
As toddlers learn to crawl, walk, and explore, frequent falls and rapid growth can create small spinal restrictions that affect coordination and balance. Chiropractic care supports healthy neurological development so their growing bodies can adapt, move, and function smoothly.
From backpacks to screen time, modern childhood places new stress on posture and spinal health. Regular adjustments help support focus, immune resilience, and physical development by keeping the nervous system communicating clearly.
Student athletes push their bodies hard, and even minor misalignments can reduce strength, flexibility, and recovery speed. Chiropractic care enhances joint mobility and neurological efficiency, helping athletes perform at a higher level while reducing injury risk.
Between work, lifting kids, and daily responsibilities, parents often ignore the physical stress building in their spine and nervous system. Consistent chiropractic care restores alignment and energy so you can show up stronger, clearer, and more present for your family.
Whether you run, lift, golf, or simply want to stay active, proper spinal motion is essential for strength and longevity. Chiropractic adjustments improve mobility, circulation, and nervous system performance so your body can recover faster and move with confidence.

Dr. Joshua Ledbetter, DC began practicing in Wesley Chapel in 2012 after earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University in Atlanta, GA. After years of struggling with sports injuries and chronic headaches, his wife encouraged him to visit a chiropractor focused on family wellness. Through regular adjustments and simple lifestyle modifications, he not only found relief from his headaches and pain, but experienced a significant improvement in his overall quality of life. That “aha moment” reshaped his understanding of chiropractic care and ultimately inspired his career change.
In 2019, Dr. Josh opened Ledbetter Chiropractic LLC, serving the Wesley Chapel and Zephyrhills communities with a focus on chiropractic care and nutrition for families, children, pregnant mothers, and infants. In 2025, he expanded his services to include state-of-the-art, natural, drug-free medical treatments using advanced BTL technology: Exomind™ to support mental clarity and neuroplasticity; EmSculpt NEO® for functional restoration, fat reduction, and muscle building; and Emsella® to improve pelvic floor health for both men and women.
Dr. Josh is committed to helping patients achieve a higher quality of life—not merely to relieve pain, but to promote lasting wellness.
Chiropractic care focuses on the health and function of the nervous system, which controls and coordinates every cell, tissue, and organ in the body. By gently addressing spinal misalignments (subluxations), chiropractic adjustments help restore proper communication between the brain and body so you can heal and function at your best.
Yes. Chiropractic care is widely recognized as safe and effective for individuals of all ages when performed by a licensed chiropractor. Techniques are always tailored to the person’s size, age, and health needs — especially for infants, children, and pregnant moms.
Care plans vary depending on your goals and health history. Some patients come for short-term relief, while others choose ongoing wellness care to support long-term nervous system function. Your chiropractor will discuss recommendations after your evaluation so you can make an informed decision.
We are a self-pay office and do not participate with Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance plans. This allows Dr. Josh to provide individualized, thoughtful care based on your specific needs — not insurance company limitations or pre-set treatment protocols. Our pricing is transparent and competitive with many insurance-based offices
Our office does not accept personal injury or car accident cases. We intentionally avoid litigation-based care so we can remain focused on what we do best — proactive wellness, nervous system health, and long-term functional improvement. If you’ve been involved in an accident, we’re happy to refer you to a trusted local chiropractor who is experienced in personal injury case management and can appropriately guide you through that process.
Birth is a physical event — even natural deliveries can place stress on a baby’s spine and developing nervous system. As children grow and begin to crawl, walk, and eventually run and play sports, small falls and minor injuries are simply part of the process. Because the nervous system coordinates growth, digestion, sleep, immune function, and behavior, parents often seek chiropractic care to support concerns such as colic and excessive crying, feeding or latching difficulties, ear infections, sleep challenges, constipation, immune resilience, and focus or behavioral regulation. Pediatric adjustments are extremely gentle and specific — often using no more pressure than you would use to check the ripeness of a tomato — and are always tailored to a child’s age, size, and comfort.
Chiropractic care is commonly sought for concerns such as neck and back pain, headaches and migraines, sciatica, pregnancy-related discomfort, sports injuries, postural stress, and nervous system dysregulation. By improving spinal alignment and supporting healthy nervous system function, care often helps reduce pain, restore mobility, and enhance overall function. Beyond symptom relief, many families choose chiropractic care proactively to support long-term wellness, improve stress resilience, and promote optimal growth and development for every stage of life.
Most adjustments are not painful. Some patients may feel mild soreness (similar to starting a new workout), which typically resolves quickly. Pediatric adjustments are especially gentle and comfortable.
No. While many people first seek care for back or neck pain, chiropractic focuses on optimizing nervous system function — which influences digestion, sleep, immune function, focus, mood, and more.
Yes. Chiropractic care during pregnancy can help reduce low back pain, pelvic discomfort, and support proper pelvic alignment. Specialized techniques are used to ensure comfort and safety for both mom and baby.
Research continues to support chiropractic care for musculoskeletal pain, headaches, and pregnancy-related discomfort. Families also seek care based on clinical experience and a wellness-based approach that prioritizes nervous system regulation and whole-body health.
