The best! As a former D1 athlete who is now a 50+ year-old weekend warrior, I was blown away by the treatment here. It takes me back to my days with the team trainers who could fix just about anything aching on my body. Dr. Bates is amazing and has got me back on my feet and ready to face some more playing time. He was recommended to me by multiple people and I think he takes care of nearly everyone in the area who plays a sport whether in high school, college, or the golden years. :)

From the moment you walk in the receptionist are welcoming they know who you are when you walk in the door... The place is super clean the music makes you feel like you in a gym working out. Dr Bates is great he listens to you. Oh & he gives “homework” at home exercises he explains them even if that means getting on floor to show you how I recommend this office & Dr to EVERYONE!!!! His whole team is AWESOME!!!!

Guys...If you are looking for results, this is your place. Have fitness goals? See Eddie (the best trainer in the city) Pain or mobility issues? See Dr. Bates or Dr. Duncan.
Erin and Kelsy in the front are always helpful, patient, and kind.
This place has truly brought me to the next level as far as my overall health.
Note: If the sign in the lobby is red, Eddie is giving someone the business he is training. #results

Over the years Dr. Bates has been the single best chiropractor and active release therapist that I could find in Shreveport. His acquired skills, experience, and education are evident the entire time he works with you.
I have consistently gone in with injuries that I did not think a short visit could fix, only to come away feeling better every time. Active release therapy is a life saver for people who train or play sports, but it has to be done well and with care.
Dr. Bates always explains what he is doing and why he is doing it. He is direct and straight forward, and the thing I always appreciated
