Dr. Allison David, DC, ATC, CCSP®, is set to join Hammond-Henry Hospital’s Chiropractic Clinic in Geneseo, bringing expertise in chiropractic care, dry needling, and sports injury rehabilitation.

“We are exceptionally proud to have Dr. Allison David expand our current chiropractic team,” said Wyatt Brieser, Hammond-Henry Hospital Vice President of Operations. “She’s worked closely with Riverdale, Prophetstown, and Geneseo High Schools’ sports programs as a certified Athletic Trainer in the past, so many people around this area already know her skill and vast knowledge of chiropractic techniques.
“We’re also grateful to have another doctor join our practice to even better fulfill the chiropractic needs of our community,” Brieser continued. Dr. David joins Dr. Owen McConnell, who began accepting patients in the HHH Chiropractic Clinic last December. In addition to chiropractic and athletic trainer services, Dr. David, who is also a Certified Dry Needling Physician, will conduct a dry needling clinic.
Dry needling, a specialized technique involving fine needles inserted into muscles or connective tissue, is gaining traction as a treatment for neuromusculoskeletal issues and movement dysfunctions. Dr. David, a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician® and experienced athletic trainer, is at the forefront of this practice. Holding multiple certifications, he treats a wide range of patients, from infants to older adults, including expectant mothers. In addition to dry needling, Dr. David utilizes cupping, soft-tissue therapies, and injury rehabilitation methods. His approach aims to stimulate the body’s natural healing and improve function, especially beneficial for those recovering from sports-related injuries.
A public open house is set to celebrate Dr. David at Hammond-Henry Hospital in Geneseo. The event will be held on June 24th from 2 to 4 PM in the first-floor Dining Room, located at 600 North College Avenue. Organizers invite anyone interested to join the celebration, meet Dr. David, and enjoy light refreshments. Attendees can also look forward to small giveaways during the festivities. This gathering is a unique opportunity for the community to show appreciation for Dr. David’s contributions and connect with others in a welcoming setting.
“Typically, within a few visits, patients see positive results including reduced chronic pain, improved muscle tension, and range of motion,” said Dr. David. “Dry needling and other chiropractic techniques can be used for both acute and chronic injuries: muscle tightness, muscle strains, ligament sprains, joint pain, movement dysfunctions, chronic pain, chronic and acute sports injuries, trigger points, myofascial pain, and painful scars.”
“As a Chiropractic Physician and Certified Athletic Trainer, my philosophy is simple: everyone is an athlete in their own right. Whether you’re a high school athlete pushing your body to its limits or a busy parent trying to keep up with the demands of daily life, movement and health are essential to everyone’s well-being. My mission is to empower individuals from all walks of life to prioritize their movement, optimize their physical health, and lead a vibrant, active lifestyle,” said Dr. David.
“With years of experience working with athletes across a range of levels – from middle school sports teams to Division 1 college athletes, and even those aspiring for professional careers – I’ve come to realize that the principles of sports medicine and rehabilitation apply to all individuals, not just those competing at the highest level,” she continued. “The human body was designed to move, and I believe that with the right tools, guidance, and mindset, every person can achieve better mobility, reduced pain, and improved overall health.”
