The Healing House

A women-led wellness hub, The Healing House provides personalized care, helping Manhattan residents achieve balance, health, and lasting vitality.

On Manhattan’s east side, tucked into a low-slung plaza on South Port Drive, lies a health clinic that feels like a carefully tended home. Soft light, natural wood accents, and a warm, unhurried reception area set the tone: this is a place where people come not only to fix a symptom, but to be heard.

In 2016, chiropractor Jessica Campbell opened Flint Hills Chiropractic with a simple and deeply personal mission: to provide patient-centered chiropractic care in an environment that honored each person’s story. As her practice grew, so did her vision of what healing could look like when approached with intention and compassion.

In 2017, chiropractor Kelli Nelson Greenwalt joined Jessica, bringing her own style and expertise to patient care. The two women quickly discovered that their philosophies aligned perfectly: they were both mothers who shared a passion for holistic well-being. For several years, Flint Hills Chiropractic served as a trusted home for patients seeking relief from pain, pregnancy-related discomfort, sports injuries, and the everyday stress that quietly settles into the body. But underneath the adjustments and appointments, something meaningful was taking shape. Patients weren’t just sharing symptoms; they were sharing stories. They talked about their sleep, emotional load, digestion, hormones, anxiety, and the pace of their lives. Jessica and Kelli listened, sensing a growing need for a more comprehensive, integrated approach to care.

That realization ultimately led to one of the most significant transformations in the practice’s history. In 2024, Flint Hills Chiropractic officially became The Healing House; a full-spectrum wellness center designed to support the entire human experience. The new name reflected what the practice had already become in spirit. It was no longer simply a chiropractic office; it was a place where people could come to feel seen, cared for, and supported in every dimension of their lives.

Today, The Healing House is powered by a multidisciplinary team of women whose collective expertise allows patients to receive deeply personalized, collaborative care under one roof. Jessica continues to lead with the same grounded presence that has anchored the practice from the beginning. Still working beside her, Kelli provides chiropractic care known for its thoughtful approach, gentle precision, and ability to help patients move through pain with confidence and clarity.

The practice expanded further with the addition of Natalie Hawkins, a highly skilled, concierge physical therapist whose work has become essential to The Healing House’s integrated model. Natalie specializes in dry needling, using it to treat chronic pain, muscle tension, nerve irritation, and movement limitations with remarkable effectiveness. Her expertise has taken her far beyond Manhattan as she teaches dry needling courses to healthcare professionals across the United States. At The Healing House, she blends dry needling with movement science, strength training, and rehabilitation to help patients rebuild their bodies from the inside out.

Supporting the emotional dimension of healing is Sarah Siders, a mental health therapist who provides a space for individuals to process stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. Her presence reinforces the clinic’s core belief that mental and emotional health are inseparable from physical well-being.

Nutrition plays its own essential role in the healing process, and Leslie Allen, Registered and Licensed Dietitian, and Physical Therapist, brings a functional, holistic approach to food. She empowers patients to understand the connections between eating patterns, hormones, inflammation, digestion, and energy, helping clients build sustainable, nourishing habits from a place of knowledge rather than restriction.

Rounding out the team is Gabrielle Dupree Fogle, an energy practitioner whose work supports the body’s subtle systems. Through techniques that address trapped emotions, toxins, energetic imbalances, and residual patterns from stress or illness, Gabrielle helps clients release what no longer serves them and reconnect with their natural state of balance.

Together, this team creates something rare: a fully integrated care model where providers view health through a whole-person lens. Patients may come in for an adjustment, and discover connections to stress, posture, emotional weight, nutrition, or unresolved tension. They leave not only with relief, but with a clearer understanding of their bodies and a supportive plan for moving forward.

In less than a decade, The Healing House has evolved into more than a clinic, it’s where the journey to true wellness is infinitely supported. More importantly, it’s a place that just feels like coming home.
