Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Dr. Schofield emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center.
I am a native of the North Hills area of Pittsburgh. In 1985 I began my private practice of chiropractic here to give the best care available to you, your family and your friends. Your good health is my concern. If you are troubled with a back, joint or nerve-related condition, whether it be from an injury or illness, my staff and I will be considerate and caring in working towards your relief of pain.
Maybe you've heard about chiropractic care through a friend or did some research online. Maybe you're just tired of living in pain. If going to the chiropractor is a new experience for you, don't worry! We're here to help you shed your pain and get back on your feet. Your first visit to our practice will be about getting to know your chiropractor, and a chance for us to get to know you!
Intervertebral discs are positioned between the vertebrae in the spine. The outside of a disc is made from cartilage, and in the center is a jelly like solution. These discs serve many purposes, including allowing movement of the spine, creating space between the vertebrae, and acting as shock absorbers.

A very great experience. I’m 80 years old and had never been to a chiropractor in my life.
A ruptured disc caused terrible leg pain, went to surgeon and was set up for surgery. Got in operating room, put under, came to and was informed blood pressure went down to 60 and they couldn’t get it back up. They wanted to reschedule but I chickened out!
Went to Dr. Schofield and pain has pretty much vanished.
Dr. Schofield has a great personality and explains everything and makes you feel at ease. I would heartily recommend him. Welcome Hill

I started going to Dr. Schofield for lower back and hip problems many years ago. I was a runner at the time, and tried to run through the pain for months. It finally got so bad that I sought treatment. A regular doctor suggested surgery(!), but I wasn't prepared to go that route. I'm so glad I found Dr. Schofield! Within a few visits, the pain was virtually gone. Dr. Schofield also showed me some exercises to do to strengthen my low back and hip, as well as simple massage techniques and body mechanics to keep me active and pain-free. Now I go for regular maintenance about every 4 - 6 weeks. I highly

I am so disappointed in my experience with James Schofield chiropractic. He was more interested in previous medical history that was irrelevant to my issues. I believe this is so he could justify a $35 consultation fee. I never had a chiropractor that did not examine the entire spine before deciding on the best options. He pushed my lower right side and my left side and said he was finished. When I stated that it did not help. He replied that was all he was going to do. Not only did it not help, I am in more pain then I came in with. He made a quick $70 for 10 minutes. I would never recommend him

I have been seeing Dr. Schofield since February 2019. I work in the dental field, and as a result suffer from a lot of neck and back pain. Dr. Schofield not only helped diminish my pain immediately, but he also equipped me with an array of exercises to maintain my health and posture in order to prevent future discomfort and pain. I would recommend his office to anyone looking for chiropractic help!

I was one of those people who feared the consequences of physical manipulation of the spine. However, the back pain that I had been dealing with for the past 5 years needed attention that only Dr. Schofield could assess. He not only eliminated my apprehension about chiropractic medicine, but he relieved my pain to the point where I feel comfortable to return to my normal daily activities. He along with his assistant were very hospitable and attentive to the kind of care that I needed. I thank Dr. Schofield for helping me through my pain. I would definitely recommend him for anyone seeking chiropractic

I was experiencing headaches everyday, but after seeing Dr. Schofield I started to feel better after the first visit. The initial visit consisted of him getting to know me, understanding my symptoms/what I was looking for, taking xrays and some other initial tests before adjusting me and giving me electrical stimulation. After that, the visits mainly consisted of an adjustment and the electrical stimulation. In addition to this, he also showed me exercises that would help prevent my headaches from returning as well as improve my posture. Dr. Schofield really takes his time with you and explains

Dr. Schofield is amazing! He is genuinely one of the nicest people, so to be able to receive his chiropractic care is a stress-free and comfortable experience! I hadn't been to a chiropractor before, but he made sure to walk through all the terminology and steps patiently with me. I'm in a much better place after starting to see Dr. Schofield!! Would highly recommend!
