About Dr. Nash

Dr. Rick R. Nash brings nearly three decades of chiropractic excellence to Pure Wellness in Denham Springs, Louisiana. He is dedicated to providing comprehensive family chiropractic care, welcoming patients of all ages.

Philosophy

“Your body is a dynamic, constantly evolving, self-healing, self-regulating organism in tune with its environment and able to adapt in a timely and appropriate way — given its nervous system is functioning without interference.”

This belief guides every aspect of Dr. Nash’s practice. His mission is not only to relieve pain, but to remove interference from the body’s innate intelligence — the power that allows us to heal, thrive, and live with purpose. He is dedicated to correcting causes rather than chasing effects, to freeing rather than controlling, and to caring for the whole person rather than just symptoms.

Tonal Chiropractic

Dr. Nash specializes in Tonal Chiropractic, a gentle, light-force approach that focuses on the tone of the nervous system rather than isolated structural adjustments. There is no twisting, cracking, or forceful manipulation — just precise, light contacts that help restore proper nervous system function.

Education & Experience

Dr. Nash earned his Bachelor of Science from Jackson State University (1977) and his Doctor of Chiropractic from the prestigious Palmer College of Chiropractic (1995) — known as “The Fountainhead” of chiropractic education.

His career spans multiple states and practice settings, including positions in Tulsa and Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, eight years as a practice owner in Edmond, Oklahoma, and eight years in private practice in Lafayette, Louisiana — giving him a well-rounded perspective on patient care across diverse communities.

Cash Practice Model

Dr. Nash operates on a cash practice model at Pure Wellness, allowing him to focus entirely on patient care without the constraints of insurance limitations. This means more time with each patient, personalized treatment plans, and transparent pricing.
