The Doctor
Dr. Riddell has been a pioneer in the Chiropractic profession for thirty-eight years, beginning with her matriculation as part of the first graduating class of Sherman College, an innovator and leading member of the purist school of Chiropractic. She is an expert in numerous adjusting techniques, adept in the more physical methods, but particularly focused on gentler, “soft-work” approaches that get results through focused energy and minimal physical pressure. Dr. Riddell is committed to progress and growth in alternative healing. She has participated in hundreds of postgraduate professional seminars, and has brought restorative health and wellness to over 10,000 patients. Her place at the vanguard of Chiropractic is demonstrated by her status as the first certified practitioner in West Virginia of the ground-breaking Impulse I.Q. Healing System, the first instrument to utilize computer sensors to analyze and adjust misaligned bones and muscles. She is a certified chiropractic sports physician and also holds post graduate certifications in physical therapy and acupuncture treatment.
She resides with her husband, Roland, in Winchester, Virginia. Dr. Catherine is a proud mother of two children and stepmother of Roland’s six other children. She and Roland are blessed with four beautiful granddaughters. She is also an active member of her church, choir, and community.
