Trusted chiropractic care for Uptown & Galleria
In the neighborhood — under 2 miles from anywhere in Uptown
Uptown is our own neighborhood. We are at 2500 West Loop South, on the northwest corner of Westheimer Road and the I-610 West Loop, directly across the freeway from The Galleria — a few hundred yards from Williams Tower and the Waterwall.
That matters mostly because of who spends the day here. Uptown is one of the largest business districts in Texas, and the people who fill it are either at a desk in one of the Post Oak towers or on their feet for an entire shift in the Galleria and the restaurants around it. Both produce predictable, treatable problems — and both are far easier to address when the office is a few minutes from where you already are.
From the towers we see the desk pattern: neck pain from a head held forward all day, posture that has quietly changed, headaches that show up every afternoon, and wrist and hand symptoms from years at a keyboard. From retail and hospitality we see the standing pattern: low-back pain and hip complaints from long shifts on hard floors, and work-related strain from repetitive lifting and carrying.
Dr. Francis Ajayi examines before treating and explains what he finds in plain language. Depending on the findings that may be chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue work such as Active Release Technique, trigger point therapy or massage therapy, and physiotherapy so the change holds once you are back at the desk or on the floor. For patients who simply want to stay ahead of it, wellness care is the maintenance option.
If you work or live in Uptown, call (713) 774-0851 or book online.

Why Uptown & Galleria chooses Wellcare Chiropractic And Rehabilitation Clinic
Uptown is not really a residential neighborhood so much as a business district with residential edges — roughly 180,000 people work here, in Williams Tower and the towers along Post Oak Boulevard, in the Galleria itself, and in the hotels and restaurants that serve them. Our office sits in the middle of it, on the West Loop frontage at Westheimer. For anyone who works in Uptown, that means care fits into a lunch hour rather than requiring a separate trip across town.
The complaints we see from Uptown split cleanly in two. Tower workers arrive with the results of eight or nine hours at a screen: a neck that has been held forward all day, upper-back tension, wrists that have started to complain, headaches that arrive mid-afternoon. Retail and hospitality staff arrive with the opposite problem — a whole shift on hard floors, on their feet, often carrying. Dr. Francis Ajayi examines first, explains what is driving it, and builds a plan with a real endpoint rather than an open-ended schedule.
What we help with
Common reasons Uptown & Galleria patients come in
Neck pain from screen work
A forward head held for eight hours a day loads the cervical spine constantly. Restoring motion is what breaks the pattern.
Learn more →Headaches that arrive mid-afternoon
When the driver is cervical rather than something else, treating the neck is usually what finally changes it.
Learn more →Posture that has changed at a desk
Rounded shoulders and a forward head are correctable — and they are often why the neck never settles.
Learn more →Wrist and hand symptoms from keyboards
Numbness or tingling in the hand can start at the wrist, the neck, or both. The exam tells us which.
Learn more →Low-back pain from standing shifts
Retail and restaurant work on hard floors loads the lumbar spine differently than sitting, and just as much.
Learn more →Work-related strain
Repetitive job demands produce predictable patterns. A clear plan and, where relevant, documentation both matter.

Uptown & Galleria chiropractic FAQs
Where exactly in Uptown are you?+
2500 West Loop South, Suite 260 — the northwest corner of Westheimer Road and the I-610 West Loop, directly across from The Galleria. The building has on-site parking.
I work in the Galleria. Can I come on a lunch break?+
That is one of the most common ways our Uptown patients schedule. Tell us when you book and we will fit visits around your workday rather than the other way around.
Do you see patients who live in Tanglewood or Briargrove?+
Yes. Those neighborhoods sit immediately west and southwest of us, so they are among the shortest drives to the office of anywhere in the city.
Do I need a referral to book?+
No referral is needed to schedule with us. Call or book online directly, and our front desk will help if your insurance plan has a referral requirement of its own.
Can chiropractic help neck pain that is purely from desk work?+
Usually yes, though it takes both in-office care and changes to how you sit and hold your head during the day. We will be straightforward about what care can and cannot do on its own.
What happens on a first visit?+
A thorough exam, a conversation about your history and goals, a plain-English explanation of what we find, and a specific plan with an endpoint. Ask about our $47 new patient special when you book.
