About Dunlap, IL
Dunlap is a growing community north of Peoria, home to families who value small-town life with easy access to city amenities. Many Dunlap residents work in Peoria and appreciate having a trusted chiropractor a short drive away on N. Sheridan Rd.

How HHC Helps Dunlap Families
Dr. Lackner cares for Dunlap patients of every age — from infants checked for spinal alignment after birth to seniors managing chronic stiffness and joint pain.
She uses the Gonstead technique, which means every adjustment is based on precise analysis: visualization, instrumentation, palpation, and X-ray when needed. No generic 'crack and hope.'
Dunlap families also appreciate that HHC accepts most major insurance, requires no referral, and offers same-week appointments for new patients.

- •Severe, sudden back or neck pain after a fall or accident
- •Numbness or weakness in your arms or legs
- •Loss of bowel or bladder control
- •Fever with back pain or neck stiffness
