Meet the Doctor
Dr. Benjamin Phillips | Chiropractor
Dr. Ben graduated from Cleveland Chiropractic College in 2021 and completed his internship here at Phillips Chiropractic (formally know as Weum Health Center) under Dr. Rick Weum. He is a proud product of Springdale Public Schools, earned his associates degree from NWACC, then transferred to the University of Arkansas where he finished his Bachelor's degree in kinesiology. He has always known he wanted to come back to his hometown to help serve his community and establish his professional career.
Dr. Ben utilizes a whole-person approach to wellness in his Springdale, Arkansas office. This means that he doesn't simply crack your back and call it a day (although sometimes that is exactly what a patient may need). By obtaining a very complete history, exam, and possibly x-rays, he uncovers the root of the pain and proceeds to manage that patient in a unique, specialized way.
His treatment approach relies heavily on not only finding the underlying cause of your pain, but also in implementing interventions and lifestyle changes that would accelerate your journey back to good health. He uses a variety of adjusting techniques such as activator, Thompson, drop table and manual adjustments.
When not in the office, he enjoys spending time on the various biking and hiking trails that Northwest Arkansas has to offer. You may also find him on the golf course or at any Razorback sporting events.
Go Hogs!
