Meet Dr. Christopher Butler, D.C. who has been around chiropractic care his whole life. At a young age he would head to his grandpa's and first thing he wanted to do was get adjusted. Now he is the one doing the adjusting whether it is an infant with colic, a toddler with an ear infection, high school athletes, a driver in a car accident, a worker with back pain or his 90 year old grandmother- he loves to help individuals, families and the community heal their body, mind and spirit.  He has completed countless hours of continuing education to always bring current knowledge and healing to the patients he works so hard to help.  He is certified with the American Academy of Motor Vehicle Injuries taking approximately 150 hours and passing a certification test to bring you expertise in car accident care.  Only after continued training did he realize what a lasting impact a prior car accident had not only on his health but in all aspects of his life.  Empathy and compassion coupled with knowledge and continued training enable him to lead the office and the patients we serve.  He lives right here in San Tan Valley with his family and plans to stay for many years to come!  

Dr. Kirk, Duxbury, D. C. has been serving the community at Ironwood Chiropractic since June of 2019.  A desire to help others heal led him to switching careers and going to back to school.  He uses his knowledge and intuition to guide others on their healing journey answering questions about the body, mind and spirit.   He and his wife are busy raising their young family and enjoy traveling, learning, and activities together.  

Dr. Ronald Berg, D.C. comes to Ironwood Chiropractic from a 20+ year career in California where he owned and operated his own practice.  Each time a new challenge has been presented in his career he has expanded his education and knowledge set to gain certification to help others heal in numerous modalities. He is now certified to do dry needling and does that for the patients at Ironwood Chiropractic. We are blessed to have his care, expertise and wisdom on our team.  He stays busy outside of work serving the community through nutrition needs out of his home.  His wife has transferred her career here to Arizona as well blessing the lives of the children she teaches.  They love visits from their 6 children and look forward to many years here in Arizona.  

Janny grew up in Tempe and lives in Chandler.  She grew up playing sports, singing and always wanting to learn something new.  She graduated magna cum laude with her degree in Exercise Science from Arizona State University and then followed up with a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction.  Raising her four children is her first passion and enjoys her new grandbabies!  Teaching Elementary PE is a 20 year career she will always cherish. In 2014 her and Dr. Butler purchased Ironwood Chiropractic. Guiding others on their road to healing is something that brings her so much joy. Now she commutes out to San Tan to connect with this Ironwood Chiropractic family.  She has countless hours of continuing education to bring knowledge and experience to the patients she loves and cares for! Much of the continuing education is with car accident case management and patient care. She is so grateful for this opportunity and knows she was called to this second career.  

Janny published her first book in 2022. 'Want More, Just Start - A Journey in Healing. Her second book was published in Nov of 2025. 'Driven By Love: Keys to Daily Peace and Joy'!  Both books are available on Amazon.

First, Judy S. was a patient at Ironwood Chiropractic. Now she enjoys treating them as part of our team.  “This is a really great job,” she says. “I love working here. I meet people from all varieties of life. A lot of them come in and they are in a great deal of discomfort. But, what I really love is when they’re walking out and they’re bouncing because they feel SO much better.”

Knowing the journey from both sides, Judy naturally shows compassion. She began her work at Ironwood as a chiropractic assistant. Judy describes this. “It’s my job to help get the patient ready for the doctor. I get as much information as possible from them so that the doctors know blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels, those kinds of things. But I also do an overview of what’s going on in that person’s life. This is so the doctor has a better handle on how to be with them and do their adjustments.”

Judy’s newest passion is her work as a certified stretch therapist doing assisted stretches with the patients. Judy explains, 'stretch is especially important with chiropractic because it loosens the muscles and gets the person to relax. So, when they are seeing the doctors, their muscles are already set. The people are fully ready to be adjusted. I’ve had many tell me, ‘That stretch really helped. It was the best adjustment I’ve ever had.'

Adriana has been a massage therapist and chiropractic assistant for over 15 years.  In March of 2019 she brought her skills and talents to Ironwood Chiropractic.  Adriana smiling face and positive energy along with her talents and skills bring healing to patients she touches and helps.  She enjoys trips to Mexico to visit family.  She and her husband are busy raising three daughters with their youngest being a busy toddler!

Dawn joined the team at Ironwood Chiropractic in April of 2024, after having been a long time patient. Dawn has many talents and skills to include working at a chiropractic clinic previously and managing other businesses. Dawn is busy with her beautiful family, active in their sports and activities. Dawn can also be found in the community at the Rodeo managing events and helping run her husband's business.

Diana found Ironwood Chiropractic as a patient.  She was in a car accident and didn't know what to do.  After being guided to seek chiropractic care and a few months of treatment she not only found health and healing but a new career.  Diana has years of experience in various fields as well as new training through stretch and Reiki to help patients heal.  Diana and her husband live here in San Tan Valley with their three children and enjoy family time together.  Between watching sports, teenager jobs and traveling to Mexico to visit extended family they stay connected and busy!

Zach grew up helping his Dad at the family practice in California so when the family moved to San Tan Valley, Arizona, an opportunity arose for Zach to join his father working at Ironwood Chiropractic.“I’ve always known my dad was helping people,” says Zach. “But it’s been really cool to able to work with him in this way.'

Zach Berg is following the lead of his father. “In terms of helping people while they are in pain, I think just being very patient is important. It’s something people often need especially after they’ve been in an auto accident. This is something we do a lot of here.”

Zach began at the clinic as a chiropractic assistant. Next, he added work in medical billing. It feels good to be able to explain their insurance to patients and see what we can also do in terms of that.” The Ironwood Way is doing whatever it takes.

“If someone is clearly in pain we do everything to help any way we can,” says Zach . If there is room to squeeze them in, we do it. There are also things I’ve been taught and trained on such as breathing exercises. I don’t need to be a licensed chiropractor to share these to help patients before they get seen by one of our doctors. All this feels really great.”
