Dr. Sheila Schielke (pronounced Shell-Key) is a National Board Certified, South Dakota licensed Doctor of Chiropractic serving the Rapid City community and surrounding areas.
Dr. Schielke was awakened to her destiny of becoming a doctor at a very young age. When she was 10 years old, her mother was injured in a car accident. After the initial, obvious injuries had healed, her mother began experiencing a decline in general health. When visits to multiple medical specialists offered no relief, her mother visited a doctor of chiropractic. Only a few adjustments later, her mother’s health began to return. Witnessing this transformation as a young child, Dr. Schielke knew it was her calling to become a healer.
Dr. Schielke earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with Pre-Medicine emphasis from Newman University in 2000. From 2001-2008, she worked at Black Hills Workshop, serving adults with disabilities in their home and work environments. She graduated Summa cum Laude from Palmer College of Chiropractic with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree in 2012. While at Palmer College, she embarked on a clinic abroad mission trip to provide chiropractic care to under-served communities of central Brazil.
She is currently a content and jovial resident of Rapid City. Her love of the Black Hills is rivaled only by her passion to serve her community.
Dr. Schielke specializes in low force adjusting for people of all ages- from infants to centenarians- and uses a whole body approach when treating patients. Dr. Schielke strives to educate the community about true health and wellness, not just the absence of symptoms. She utilizes various techniques to deliver the best care possible to her patients, including Applied Kinesiology (AK), Quantum Neurology (QN), and Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET).
