About Us

Freedom Of Movement Chiropractic, a female-owned practice proudly servicing the Vero Beach, FL and surrounding areas is led by Dr. Roxanne Shepherd. Dr. Shepherd brings a unique perspective to chiropractic care. The passion for serving adults 40 and older drives our practice philosophy for a one-on-one approach that looks beyond symptoms to understand how joint mobility, muscle function, and movement patterns may be contributing to discomfort or limitations. We are a certified Flexion-Distraction physician trained office, and we also utilize other specialized chiropractic techniques with movement restoration and supportive therapies when clinically appropriate. Our office is conveniently located inside Image Studios, which uniquely places us as part of a community of trusted health and wellness providers, making it easy to care for your "whole" self in one place.

Getting treatment early can prevent long-term problems.

Personalized Care. Better Movement. Greater Freedom.

Dr. Shepherd has a particular passion for caring for adults 40 and older and understanding the changes in mobility, joint function, and physical activity that can occur with age.

Using techniques and supportive therapies such as Flexion-Distraction, Diversified and Activator techniques, cupping, electrical stimulation, pulse therapy, and assisted stretching, Dr. Shepherd develops individualized care plans focused on improving movement, reducing discomfort, restoring function, and helping patients stay active.
