University Chiropractic & Wellness was founded by Dr. Matthew Hitchner, D.C., who began serving the Tuscaloosa community in 1990 after earning his chiropractic degree from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. Driven by a passion for holistic, natural health, Dr. Hitchner established University Chiropractic & Wellness in 2015, expanding his practice to include wellness care for patients of all ages. Over the years, our practice has grown alongside the community, staying true to our roots as a caring, patient-focused healthcare provider where personal relationships and individualized care are the foundation of what we do.
We are proud to call Tuscaloosa home, serving not just our city but families from the surrounding area who value long-term health and trusted connections. Many of our patients are referred by family, friends, and neighbors—and we consider it a privilege to care for generations within the same household. At University Chiropractic, our welcoming atmosphere means you are greeted by name and treated like family at every visit, because we genuinely care about your story and your well-being, not just your symptoms.
Our clinic provides a broad range of chiropractic services for individuals, busy families, athletes, those recovering from injuries, expectant mothers, and children. Whether you seek relief from pain, support for healing, or want to invest in proactive wellness, we take the time to listen and understand how your health affects your life. Combining advanced expertise with genuine compassion, we focus on restoring function and empowering you to live your healthiest, happiest life. We encourage you to explore our provider bios to learn more about our team, and we look forward to partnering with you on your health journey.
