Active Lifestyle Clinic is the husband-and-wife team of Dr. Todd Winton, ND and Dr. Jen Winton, DC — naturopathic medicine and chiropractic care, working side by side in Ahwatukee, Phoenix. We treat the cause, not just the symptom, and reach for surgery and prescriptions last, not first.
Dr. Todd Winton, ND · Dr. Jen Winton, DC
Most clinics make you choose: a chiropractor or a naturopath, a quick crack or a deeper look at why you keep getting hurt. At Active Lifestyle Clinic you get both — a married team who share notes on the same patient, in the same building, so your spine, your joints, and your overall health are handled together.
Naturopathic doctor · joint injections & regenerative care
Todd's interest in natural health started in childhood and never left. He practices "conservative medicine first" — giving the body the nutrition, support, and targeted injections it needs to heal the way it was built to, before reaching for pharmaceuticals or surgery.
Chiropractor · spinal biomechanics & adjustments
Jen came to chiropractic by way of psychology — she has always been fascinated by how the body and nervous system talk to each other. Her adjustments are precise, never rushed, and always explained before they happen. Patients describe her as the doctor who finally listened.
Office workers who slept wrong, runners and golfers mid-season, folks rear-ended on the 10, and people who have been told "just live with it." Because we combine chiropractic, naturopathic, and physical-therapy tools, we can reach problems a single-discipline clinic often cannot.
From sit-all-day stiffness to acute flare-ups. Adjustments, soft-tissue work, and targeted injections when the joint needs more support.
Forward-head posture, a bad pillow, or post-accident whiplash. Often paired with shoulder tension and headaches.
Cervicogenic headaches respond well to upper-cervical work and release of the tight muscles at the base of the skull.
Radiating leg pain, numbness, or tingling. We combine adjustments with soft-tissue and nerve-focused care.
Where prolotherapy, prolozone, and PRP shine — regenerative injections that help the joint rebuild instead of just numbing it.
Golfers, pickleball players, runners, weekend warriors. Get back in the game without sitting the season out.
We document thoroughly, coordinate with your attorney or adjuster, and build a recovery plan that does not drag on.
Radial pressure-wave therapy and custom orthotics for stubborn heel and arch pain that has not responded to rest.
Dr. Todd's naturopathic side — bioidentical hormone balancing and nutritional support for energy, sleep, and mood.
Medically supervised weight management, including modern options, paired with lifestyle and nutritional coaching.
When one approach has stalled, the combination of disciplines often finds the piece that was missing.
Maintenance adjustments, supplements, and check-ins to keep you active — the whole point of the place.
Every patient gets a real exam, real listening, and a plan that explains itself. The tools below are not a menu to up-sell you — they are the kit we draw from once we understand what is actually going on.
Diversified manual technique and gentle, instrument-assisted work for sensitive patients. Dr. Jen matches the technique to you — not you to the technique.
Small, targeted injections that trigger the body's own repair response in worn or unstable joints. A regenerative alternative to masking pain or rushing to surgery.
Concentrating your own platelets to support healing in tendons, ligaments, and joints. Regenerative care drawn straight from your own biology.
With our PT, Christine — myofascial release and movement retraining so the fix actually holds, instead of unraveling the moment you leave.
Acoustic pulses for chronic soft-tissue trouble spots — plantar fascia, tennis elbow, calcific shoulder. Stimulates the body's own repair signals.
Releasing stubborn trigger points and tight fascia to restore blood flow and range of motion — often the unlock for pain that keeps coming back.
Dr. Todd's naturopathic work — hormone balancing, vitamin injections, and nutritional medicine for energy, sleep, and whole-body resilience.
Support from the ground up, plus a short set of exercises you will actually do. Four moves that work beat fourteen that gather dust.
"Conservative medicine first — so your body can heal the way it was meant to."

Tucked into a quiet Ahwatukee plaza on South 40th Street, Active Lifestyle Clinic is small on purpose. You will see the same faces every visit, get a real conversation instead of a conveyor belt, and never feel like a chart number.
No mystery, no "let's see how it goes." Here is exactly what happens, in order, on the day you walk in.
Fill out new-patient forms ahead of time or in the waiting room. Bring a photo ID and your insurance or FSA/HSA card.
The doctor sits down and listens first. What hurts, when, how long, what you have already tried, and what you actually want to get back to doing.
Orthopedic, neurologic, and movement tests. Then we decide together: chiropractic, naturopathic, physical therapy — or the combination that fits you.
You leave with a clear plan, an estimate, and an answer to "how long until I feel better." No fourteen-page packets, no pressure.
Many patients start the same day. If today is not the right day, that is fine — we will reschedule, no charge.
We will verify your benefits before your first visit, so the front-desk conversation is short and there are no surprises on visit two.
Often billable to insurance. We will check your specific plan up front and tell you exactly what is covered before we begin — not after.
Many naturopathic services (injections, PRP, hormones) are paid out of pocket. We keep pricing transparent and quote it before you commit — no bundles, no surprises.
We will verify your specific benefits before your first appointment — call us at (480) 704-1050.
A 4.8-star average across 180+ verified reviews on Google, Yelp, and Birdeye. The notes below reflect what patients consistently tell us.
The first place that actually looked at the whole picture instead of just cracking my back and sending me out. Dr. Jen and Dr. Todd clearly talk to each other about your case.
I came in dreading another surgery conversation. The joint injections gave me my knee back without going under the knife. I cannot recommend this clinic enough.
They never push prepaid packages or upsell you. You feel like a person, not a number. The whole team is warm and they remember you every visit.
After my car accident they handled everything — the paperwork, the adjuster, the plan. All I had to do was show up and get better.
If the question on your mind is not here, just call us — we would rather answer it now than have you guess.
A chiropractor (Dr. Jen) focuses on the spine, joints, and nervous system through hands-on adjustments. A naturopathic doctor (Dr. Todd) treats the whole body with natural medicine — injections, nutrition, hormones, and regenerative therapies. Together, they cover far more ground than either could alone.
Not at all. Many patients come in for just chiropractic, or just naturopathic care. We simply have both available, so if your case would benefit from the other discipline, the right doctor is already down the hall.
No surgery — these are quick, in-office injections (prolotherapy, prolozone, PRP). Most patients describe brief pressure. They are designed to help the joint repair itself, often as an alternative to surgery.
It depends on what is wrong and how long it has been wrong. We never sell prepaid packages. After your exam we recommend a plan with a clear end-point, and we revisit it together as you progress.
No. You can call us directly to schedule — no referral required.
Tell us why on the phone. There are many techniques — if a high-velocity adjustment is not for you, Dr. Jen has gentler options that work just as well for many conditions.
Yes, regularly. We document thoroughly, coordinate with your attorney or insurer, and design a recovery plan with a clear goal.
Tell us a few details and we will call you back the same business day to confirm a time. If today is urgent, please pick up the phone instead.
Call us(480) 704-1050It usually does not. The sooner you come in, the fewer visits you will need — and the sooner you are back to living actively.
