Meet Our Chiropractor
Acorn Wellness Center in Walnut Creek, CA is run by Chiropractor Elon Bartlett. Dr Bartlett is one of Walnut Creek’s top-rated chiropractors, and has been specializing in prenatal and postpartum chiropractic care since 2001, making him one of the Bay Area’s most experienced chiropractors as well.
Dr. Bartlett has always had a passion for optimal body mechanics and bodywork which can be seen in his background as a massage therapist and advanced student of Tai Chi Chuan. Another passion of his, empowering birth, began as a child upon seeing images of his own, peaceful home birth. Once he made the progression from massage therapist to chiropractor, he combined his passions by specializing in prenatal and postpartum chiropractic care.
From his Walnut Creek, CA office, Dr. Bartlett practices Diversified chiropractic, incorporating Activator, Drop, NeuroMuscular Re-education (NMR), and CranioSacral Therapy (CST) into his treatments. His treatment style is gentle and precise, meaning he only uses as much force as is required to achieve the desired result. What sets him apart as a chiropractor is that he begins every treatment with NMR, a therapeutic form of massage, to soften muscle tension first and then uses manual palpation to assess what treatment is needed, only relying on X-Ray when required.

Since having my son, I have really seen the benefits of a chiropractor and Dr. Bartlett truly tops them all. And his use of massage, rather than a machine roller, has truly helped me, especially with my migraines. Even my husband sees Dr. Bartlett for his back now, too. I’m so grateful to Dr. Bartlett for his skillful care for my sweet family!
I am so grateful that I found Dr. Bartlett. I was pregnant and had been experiencing terrible pain in my tailbone when walking for months. After two adjustments I could walk pain-free. I wish I had come in sooner! I think Dr. Bartlett is really passionate about his patients living healthy, pain-free lives and I always feel taken care of when I go in to see him.
I have been going to Acorn Wellness for years. I don’t know what I would do without Dr. Bartlett, I am a painter and have repetitive stress injuries. My monthly appointments keep me moving and aligned.
