Meet the Family Behind Spine-Ability in Apollo Beach and Riverview, FL

Eleven years of compassionate, family-owned chiropractic and wellness care

Family-Owned <span class="accent">Chiropractic</span> Since 2015

Family-Owned Chiropractic Since 2015

Spine-Ability Chiropractic and Wellness opened its first office in 2015 after co-owners Dr. David Fetherman, DC, and Dr. Marissa Fetherman, DC, met on a chiropractic mission trip in the Caribbean. They settled in Apollo Beach to build a family-centered practice rooted in plain-English education, integrative wellness and concierge-level hospitality.

Eleven years later, the Fethermans are raising four children alongside the practice itself. What started as a single Hillsborough County office has grown into two clinics, fifteen staff and five doctors of chiropractic. The original Apollo Beach location at 901 Apollo Beach Blvd now houses a full BTL Aesthetics-equipped Advanced Wellness suite featuring Emsculpt Neo, Emsella and Exomind TMS. The Riverview office at 12953 US Highway 301 S, Suite 101 offers the same comprehensive chiropractic and injury-rehab care closer to Brandon, Valrico and Bloomingdale.

Across both clinics we serve Apollo Beach, Riverview, Tampa, Brandon, Ruskin, Sun City Center, Gibsonton and the surrounding Hillsborough County community.

Restoring Movement, <span class="accent">Relieving Pain</span>, Strengthening Lives

Restoring Movement, Relieving Pain, Strengthening Lives

Our mission is to restore movement, relieve pain and strengthen the body by addressing the root cause of dysfunction so patients can live healthier, more active lives. We pair evidence-based chiropractic and rehabilitation with integrative wellness tools, from acupuncture and dry needling to BTL device therapies, to treat the whole person rather than the symptom.

Every visit is built around concierge-level hospitality. We take time to listen, explain findings in plain English and design a plan that fits each patient's goals, schedule and budget. It is the same warmth the Fetherman family brings home to their four kids, extended to every neighbor who walks through our doors.

What Guides Us

Family Approach

Owned and operated by a husband-and-wife doctor team raising four kids in Apollo Beach. Every patient is treated like family.

Concierge-Level Care

Nelia Bruce: “Had my first massage here, I’m 5 weeks out from major surgery and my body was really tight and just still sore. I saw Rachel, she did a great job, and I feel great. highly recommend. I already scheduled another in a couple of weeks.”

MSBIZZPRODUCTIONS: “My husband and I both come here. Yesterday was my first appointment and I had a super pleasant experience. I have UMR which leaves a copay but it’s worth it. I was adjusted, taught some mobility exercises, and did the massage bed. I have not slept without shoulder pain in like a year but had zero pain in my shoulder last night. I feel wonderful and will be back!”

Johnathan Hornes: “Spine-Ability is great for my pain management and spinal decompression. The entire staff are knowledgeable, Carolann was extremely helpful with scheduling.”

Ivonne M.S: “I have been a few times already and have no cons to this place. Everyone is so nice and professional. Both doctors have amazing bedside manners. They remember little personal information that was talked about and it feels very welcoming. I have, also, been while pregnant and it brings so much relief. They definitely know what they are doing.”
