Chiropractic and Nutrition Care for the Alamo Heights Community
Alamo Heights — known locally as “09” for its distinctive 78209 zip code — is one of San Antonio’s most established and desirable neighborhoods. Bordered by the lush grounds of the San Antonio Botanical Garden, the cultural district along Broadway, and the oak-shaded campuses of Alamo Heights ISD, this community attracts families, professionals, and active retirees who take their health seriously. Aloha Wellness, located about 12 minutes north on US-281 at 12915 Jones Maltsberger Rd, Suite 604, San Antonio, TX, 78247, provides the kind of thorough, individualized healthcare that Alamo Heights residents expect.
Dr. Clayton Clark does not practice assembly-line chiropractic. With over 25 years of experience and dual expertise as a Doctor of Chiropractic and certified Applied Clinical Nutritionist, he delivers a level of diagnostic depth and personalized treatment that sets Aloha Wellness apart from every other practice in the San Antonio area.
Why the “09” Community Chooses Aloha Wellness
Alamo Heights residents are discerning. They research their healthcare providers, ask smart questions, and want evidence-based explanations — not vague promises. Dr. Clark’s practice is built on exactly this kind of transparency.
Every new patient evaluation begins with Insight Subluxation Station nerve scanning, a technology that measures three objective indicators of nervous system health: surface electromyography (muscle tension patterns), infrared thermography (autonomic nerve function), and heart rate variability (overall stress adaptation). These scans produce quantifiable data that Dr. Clark reviews with you in detail, so you understand exactly what is happening in your body before any treatment begins.
This matters because many conditions that bring Alamo Heights patients through our doors — persistent migraines, recurring lower back episodes, unexplained fatigue, chronic digestive disturbance — have root causes that a standard physical exam cannot detect. The nervous system controls every function in your body, and when spinal misalignment creates interference in that system, the effects can be wide-ranging and seemingly unrelated to the spine itself.
Nutrition Response Testing adds the second dimension of Dr. Clark’s evaluation. This clinical assessment identifies specific organ weaknesses, nutritional deficiencies, and food sensitivities that may be compounding your symptoms. The combination of structural correction and nutritional restoration is what produces lasting results for patients who have been through multiple other providers without resolution.
The Active Alamo Heights Lifestyle
Alamo Heights residents are active across every age group. The community’s walkable streets, proximity to Brackenridge Park and the River Walk, and robust recreational culture mean that residents are regularly engaged in activities that challenge the musculoskeletal system:
- Weekend warriors — from Saturday morning runs along the Tobin Trail to Sunday afternoon tennis at the Alamo Heights Tennis Center, recreational athletes frequently develop overuse injuries that benefit from chiropractic correction
- High school and youth athletes — Alamo Heights ISD has competitive athletic programs, and young athletes benefit from chiropractic care for injury prevention, recovery, and performance optimization
- Active professionals — many Alamo Heights residents commute to offices in the Medical Center, downtown, or the Pearl district, spending hours seated at desks and in vehicles before transitioning to evening workouts
- Retirees maintaining independence — chiropractic care combined with nutritional support helps older adults preserve mobility, reduce inflammation, and avoid the pharmaceutical cascade that often accompanies aging

FAQ — Aloha Wellness in Alamo Heights
Common questions from Alamo Heights clients.
Your first visit to Aloha Wellness typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes and is designed to give Dr. Clark a complete picture of your health. The appointment begins with a thorough health history where you will discuss your symptoms, lifestyle, past injuries, and wellness goals.
Next, Dr. Clark performs a physical examination that includes posture analysis, range of motion testing, and neurological assessments. One thing that makes our office unique is the use of Insight scanning technology — a non-invasive, NASA-published system that measures how well your nervous system is functioning. This replaces the need for routine X-rays in most cases and gives both you and Dr. Clark objective data to guide your care plan.
After the exam, Dr. Clark will walk you through his findings, explain what is causing your symptoms, and outline a personalized treatment plan with clear goals and a realistic timeline. In most cases, you will receive your first chiropractic adjustment on that same visit. If nutritional factors are involved, Dr. Clark may also recommend nutrition response testing as part of your overall plan.
To prepare, wear comfortable clothing and arrive a few minutes early to complete any intake paperwork. Call (210) 988-9388 or visit [Request Appointment](/contact) to schedule your first appointment.
At Aloha Wellness, we operate as a cash-friendly practice, which means our fees are transparent and affordable — with no surprise bills, no coding games, and no waiting for insurance approval. Many patients find that our out-of-pocket rates are comparable to or less than typical insurance copays at other offices.
Your initial consultation, which includes the Insight nerve scan, examination, and first chiropractic adjustment, is competitively priced and discussed upfront before any treatment begins. Follow-up adjustment visits are significantly less. Dr. Clark will always present your recommended care plan with full cost transparency so you can make an informed decision.
Because we do not bill insurance directly, you avoid the restrictions that insurance companies place on how often you can be seen, what services are covered, and how long your care plan can last. This means Dr. Clark can recommend exactly what your body needs — nothing more, nothing less.
If you have an HSA or FSA account, chiropractic care and nutrition counseling are typically eligible expenses. We provide superbills that you can submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

Yes, chiropractic care is very safe for children when performed by a trained and experienced practitioner. Dr. Clark has extensive experience working with pediatric patients of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. The techniques used on children are extremely gentle — requiring no more pressure than you would use to test the ripeness of a tomato.
Children can benefit from chiropractic care for a wide range of concerns, including colic, ear infections, difficulty sleeping, growing pains, poor posture from heavy backpacks, and sports-related injuries. The developing spine undergoes significant stress during birth, learning to walk, and the many falls that are a normal part of childhood. Regular chiropractic adjustments help ensure that the spine and nervous system develop properly.
At Aloha Wellness, Dr. Clark also uses nutrition response testing to identify nutritional deficiencies or food sensitivities that may be contributing to a child’s health issues — something that is often overlooked in conventional pediatric care. This whole-body approach can make a meaningful difference for children dealing with digestive problems, low energy, or recurring illness.
Many San Antonio families bring their children in for regular wellness visits to support healthy growth and development. If you are curious whether chiropractic care could help your child, call (210) 988-9388 to schedule a consultation.
Nutrition Response Testing (NRT) is a non-invasive clinical assessment used to identify the underlying nutritional deficiencies, food sensitivities, and organ stressors that may be contributing to your health problems. It was developed to give practitioners a precise, body-specific way to determine what each patient needs nutritionally — rather than relying on generic supplement recommendations.
During a nutrition response testing session, Dr. Clark analyzes specific reflex points on your body that correspond to organs and systems. By testing how your body responds to various nutritional supplements and whole food concentrates, he can determine exactly which nutrients your body is lacking and which ones it will respond to most effectively.
This approach is particularly valuable for patients dealing with chronic fatigue, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, stubborn weight, skin conditions, and recurring inflammation. Many patients come to Aloha Wellness after years of being told their lab work looks “normal” despite feeling far from it.
The supplements recommended through NRT are professional-grade, whole food products from trusted brands like Standard Process — not synthetic vitamins from a drugstore shelf. Each recommendation is tailored to your body’s specific findings and adjusted as your health improves.
Dr. Clark combines NRT with chiropractic adjustments for a comprehensive approach that addresses both structural and nutritional root causes. To learn more, call (210) 988-9388 or visit [Request Appointment](/contact) to schedule your initial assessment.
Absolutely. Sciatica — that sharp, shooting pain that radiates from the lower back down through the buttock and leg — is one of the most common conditions treated at Aloha Wellness. It is typically caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, often due to a herniated disc, spinal misalignment, or muscle tightness in the piriformis.
Dr. Clark uses chiropractic adjustments to restore proper alignment in the lumbar spine and pelvis, which reduces pressure on the sciatic nerve and allows the body to heal naturally. Many patients experience noticeable relief within the first few visits, though a full care plan is usually recommended to address the underlying cause and prevent recurrence.
In addition to spinal adjustments, Dr. Clark may incorporate corrective exercises to strengthen the supporting muscles around the low back and hips. For patients with chronic or severe sciatica, spinal decompression therapy can provide additional relief by gently creating space between vertebrae to take pressure off compressed discs and nerves.
The Insight nerve scanning technology used at our office objectively measures nerve function, so you can see your progress over time rather than relying on subjective pain levels alone.
If sciatica is limiting your daily life, call (210) 988-9388 or visit [Request Appointment](/contact) to schedule an evaluation with Dr. Clark.
