Why Underwood chooses Schanuth Family Chiropractic
Underwood is a close-knit bedroom community in the Loess Hills, about ten miles northeast of Council Bluffs and right on I-80 at Exit 17. That interstate access makes our office an easy 18-minute trip for Underwood families and their neighbors in Bentley, McClelland, and Weston. For a smaller town where good care can mean a drive, the short, direct route is a real plus — with free parking at the door and same-week openings with Dr. Nate Schanuth.
After a thorough exam — X-rays included for most patients — we explain what we find in plain English and build a plan to get you out of pain by working on the actual cause. Then we transition you into long-term wellness care to keep your spine in the best condition possible. From Jack Link's warehouse workers and farmers to Underwood student-athletes and busy parents, every patient gets care tailored to their goals — not a one-size-fits-all package.

What our patients say
“Timely and efficient, no waiting and thoroughly discussed issues and treatment plan. So far I have made solid gains!”
“1st visit went great, front staff explains everything very well. Dr listened and noted everything in detail. Explained and demonstrated what each step and what was happening and what to expect. I’m hoping this will be the answer to alleviate years of constant pain and discomfort.”
“I always get the best treatment and my appointments are quick. I had some extra discomfort in my back and Dr Nate made sure my adjustments were directed along those lines instead of my usual adjustments. He also offered a few ideas for stretching to work on my discomfort as well. Best costumer service ever! Thank you for helping keeping me adjusted.”
