Why Choose Root Stem Chiropractic
At Root & Stem Chiropractic, you are cared for by someone who truly understands what it is like to live with pain. After a serious car accident left Dr. Mickey Mondragon with multiple injuries and months of chronic discomfort, chiropractic care helped him find lasting relief and regain his quality of life.

As an Albuquerque native, Dr. Mondragon is proud to serve the community that raised him. He combines his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Parker University with a background in nutrition to provide personalized, natural care focused on the whole person—not merely the symptoms.

Terri Legendre
"Highly recommend Mickey Mondragon. His service is life changing. The care and knowledge he puts in to every adjustment is exceptional. He is very accommodating with his scheduling. I can not say enough good things!"

Joe & Sarah Carpio
My husband first started coming, and right away, I started seeing improvements in not only his back problems but his health issues as well. After many years of complaining about my back pain, he convinced me to try and see if this would help. I am so grateful that I did. My sleep has improved, along with other health issues that connect through my spine. I suffer from migraines and occasionally upper-back spasms that radiate to the front, causing intense pain that feels as if my heart is being squeezed. I have not had any migraines or back spasms since starting therapy. I enjoy coming in for my adjustments every time, even when I’m feeling a bit under the weather, because afterward, I feel better. Not only do I feel better, but I am greeted with respect and kindness. If I could, I’d rate 10 stars. Thank you, Root and Stem Chiropractic, for all you are doing. I highly recommend them.

For those of you who cannot find help elsewhere, this guy can figure it out and make it happen. You can find relief here. He doesn’t just pop to pop. The process—exam, X-rays, and more—is more thorough than at other places because he knows what he’s doing. He’s precise, he’s exact, and he can help you! If you’ve tried other places that didn’t actually work, go to this guy!

Since beginning my journey with Root and Stem, my body has felt so much better. The chronic back and neck pain has subsided, giving me much more flexibility to move around. Exercise has become easier, and my overall health feels great! Thank you, Dr. Micky, for everything!

"The Dr was very helpful and professional with my needs. Friendly environment and clean. I now go in monthly to stay on top of any issues that might arise and I can say I feel 100% better with this new routine. One of the most satisfying service. I highly recommend to everyone."

Sue Eaton
I have been receiving chiropractic services for about two months now to treat back pain and leg discomfort. I am feeling so much better now. The pain and discomfort are gone, and I have more energy and feel better physically, mentally, and emotionally. I highly recommend Dr. Micky and his staff. They are professional and caring.

I started coming here just over a year ago when I was newly moved to Albuquerque. I woke up one morning and lost feeling in my entire right arm, all the way down to my fingertips, and could not move that arm or my fingers for hours. I quickly jumped online to find a chiropractor, and Dr. Mick called me promptly and encouraged me to come in. I am so happy I did. A year later, I have regained feeling in my arm and fingers, which is essential for my job because I am self-employed and work with my hands. I love the care and compassion that Dr. Mick provides for his clients. Arlette is wonderful at assisting with the front end of the chiropractic office. She’s always happy and vibrant, and it is truly a pleasure to see her smile when you walk through the door.
I will always continue to come here because it is so challenging to find people who truly love and have a passion for what they do. Dr. Mick is definitely that person. Thank you for bringing movement back to my arm and fingers. It was perhaps one of the most stressful experiences to think that I had lost the ability to care for my kids and family.
