Evansdale's Neighbor for Movement-Based and Family Chiropractic Care

Evansdale residents are just minutes from two distinct chiropractic specialties — Dr. Jared Kennedy's sports and rehab focus and Dr. Kailey Kennedy's pediatric, pregnancy, and nervous system care — all under one roof at What's Next Chiropractic in Waterloo.


Chiropractic Care Built for Evansdale Families and Active Adults

What's Next Chiropractic opened in January 2025 with a clear purpose: to bring movement-based and neurologically-informed chiropractic care to the Cedar Valley, including the families and athletes of Evansdale. Whether you're dealing with back pain that's slowing you down, navigating pregnancy, or looking for gentle care for your child, our practice is structured to meet you where you are. You won't find a one-size-fits-all adjustment approach here — you'll find two doctors with complementary specialties who work together to serve your whole family.

A $45 Nervous System Scan — No Commitment Required

Not sure if chiropractic care is right for you or your family? Start with our $45 Nervous System Scan. In one appointment, you'll get objective data on how your nervous system is functioning — surface EMG, thermal imaging, and muscle tension analysis — along with a clear explanation of what it means for your health. There's no obligation to continue care, and no pressure. It's simply the clearest way to understand what's happening in your body before making any decisions.


New Patients from Evansdale — Here's What to Expect

Your first visit to What's Next Chiropractic is a conversation before it's ever an adjustment. We take time to understand your history, your goals, and what's brought you in — whether that's pain, performance, pregnancy, or your child's health. From there, we build a care plan that's specific to you, not a template. Evansdale residents can also take advantage of our New Patient Special: $50 off your first appointment.

What We Treat and Who We Serve


Pain Relief, Rehab, and Sports Performance

Dr. Jared Kennedy works with active adults, athletes, and anyone dealing with pain that's limiting movement. If you've tweaked something at the gym, are managing a recurring injury, or simply want to move better and recover faster, Dr. Jared's approach combines chiropractic adjustments with targeted rehabilitation strategies. Evansdale athletes and weekend warriors have a resource close to home.


Pregnancy and Postpartum Care

Dr. Kailey Kennedy is Webster Technique certified, a specialized chiropractic approach for pregnant patients that focuses on pelvic alignment and nervous system balance. If you're expecting and experiencing discomfort, or you're postpartum and working to restore your body, Dr. Kailey provides care that's both evidence-informed and genuinely attentive to where you are in your journey.


Pediatric Chiropractic Care

Infants and children respond remarkably well to chiropractic care when it's delivered correctly. Dr. Kailey uses instrument-based adjusting techniques that are gentle enough for newborns and effective for kids of all ages. If your child is dealing with colic, sleep disruption, or developmental tension patterns, pediatric chiropractic care may be worth exploring. Evansdale families now have a trusted pediatric chiropractor nearby.


Nervous System Scanning — Unique to the Cedar Valley

Dr. Kailey is one of only two providers in the Cedar Valley offering objective nervous system scanning, including surface EMG, thermal scanning, and muscle tension assessment. This technology takes the guesswork out of care by showing measurable data about how your nervous system is functioning. It's a starting point that makes every care plan more precise and every outcome easier to track.
