Welcome to Southern Connecticut Chiropractic in Derby, CT 

Our Mission Statement

To educate as many people as possible about the true benefits of Chiropractic. To provide the highest quality Chiropractic care for my patients and to empower them in their quest of the restoration and maintenance of optimal health and full life expression.

Dr. Scott J Rocchio

Regardless of age, a properly functioning nervous system,free from interference caused by spinal subluxations,is essential for growth, development, and overall health. Chiropractic care supports the body’s natural ability to function at its highest potential, helping individuals not only overcome challenges but also achieve a higher level of performance and well-being.

Chiropractic has helped countless women throughout pregnancy by easing back and leg pain, supporting comfort, and often contributing to a smoother birth process. Clinical research has documented improved fetal positioning, including breech presentations, following specific chiropractic care, allowing many mothers to experience easier deliveries.

From the very beginning of life, chiropractic care is gentle, safe, and age-appropriate. Adjustments for newborns and infants are performed using specific techniques designed to correct spinal issues without discomfort. Studies have shown chiropractic to be both safe and effective for the youngest members of our community. As children grow into toddlers and beyond, chiropractic adjustments are tailored to their developing spines, supporting healthy growth and optimal nervous system function.

Attention to a child’s spine and nervous system is one of the best ways to support proper development and lifelong health. Chiropractic is the only health profession dedicated to the detection and correction of subluxations, allowing the body to function as it was designed. The secret to a long, healthy, and enjoyable life isn’t really a secret at all it’s ensuring your body functions at its maximum potential. Chiropractic care helps make that possible at every stage of life.
