University Physical Medicine
University Physical Medicine is an integrated chiropractic and medical practice on Ocala Rd in Tallahassee, where chiropractic care and medical treatment sit under one roof. The practice has served Tallahassee since 2009 and is run by Dr. Nicholas Belletto, D.C., an FSU graduate and Florida licensed chiropractic physician who focuses on the care and correction of musculoskeletal spine disorders and physical rehabilitation, alongside Celeste Lind, A.P.R.N., an advanced registered nurse practitioner who prescribes hormone therapy and is a BioTE certified provider. Chiropractic care covers back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and sports injuries for adults, children, and athletes, and it is backed by physical rehabilitation with rehabilitative exercise, muscle stimulation, and intersegmental traction. The medical side adds diagnostic evaluations, trigger point injections, nerve conduction studies, IME, and school physicals, plus advanced therapies such as shockwave, laser, therapeutic ultrasound, and hot and cold therapy. Hormone optimization is the most requested program here, covering HRT for women, TRT for men, BioTE pellets, and thyroid management dosed from your own lab work rather than a template, and regenerative medicine adds stem cell and peptide therapy for chronic joint pain that has not responded to conservative care. Auto injury patients are seen under the Florida 14 day rule with same-day evaluation, and documentation is coordinated with attorneys and PIP. Insurance is accepted, including BCBS, Aetna, United, Cigna, Medicare, and VA, and new patients can start with a complimentary consultation before making any financial commitment.
