A Story of Restoration
ROCK Family Chiropractic was born from a simple but powerful conviction: that health is more than the absence of pain, it's the presence of life, fully expressed.
Dr. Anthony and Dr. Julie Donoso didn't set out to build just another chiropractic office. They set out to build something that would change the landscape of health in Kingston. A place rooted in purpose. A practice built on the belief that when families are healthy and aligned, entire communities are transformed.
The name ROCK stands for Restoring Our City of Kingston, and that's exactly what we're here to do. One spine. One family. One community at a time.
We Don't Chase Symptoms.
We Restore Lives.
Our approach to care is corrective, not reactive. We look beyond the surface to understand what's really going on in your body — and then we build a plan to help you heal from the inside out.
We believe every person was designed to thrive. When the spine is aligned and the nervous system is functioning the way it should, the body has an incredible ability to heal itself. That's not just science, it's hope.
Whether you're an expecting mother, a growing child, or someone who's been living with pain for years, there is a path forward. And it starts here.

Real People. Real Stories.
Don't take our word for it. Hear from the families whose lives have been changed through the care they've received.
"When I first came to Dr. Anthony and Dr. Julie I was experiencing a lot of back and shoulder pain. While under care at their office I have noticed changes in my quality of life and ability to function and perform. I am learning to deal with daily stresses and to listen to my body. I am much more peaceful overall. I find myself automatically stopping to stretch and relax my neck and shoulder at different points throughout the day. The approach here is calming, attentive and helpful. It is a lifestyle support."
"Our 4 week old daughter had been crying constantly for 3 weeks straight. Her eyes had a constant look of distress in them. It did not seem to matter what we did, she just wouldn't stop crying! Our medical doctor told us it was most likely colic and there was not much we could do about it. We hadn't slept much in days and we were at our wits end when a friend told us about Dr. Anthony and Dr. Julie. With nowhere else to turn, we decided to give chiropractic a try. They were very gentle and did a thorough assessment. After our daughter's first adjustment she stopped crying for 2 hours! (Something we had not seen in weeks). As our baby continued to be adjusted she was like a different child; happy, smiling and relaxed. I can't imagine what it would have been like had we never gone to see a chiropractor. Thanks for your expertise and compassion!"
"As a health care professional, I was always skeptical of chiropractic treatment, never understanding the science of it. Unfortunately I had suffered a neck injury while resistance training and endured excruciating acute then debilitating chronic pain. I had seen sports medicine physicians, physiotherapists, massage therapists and taken countless pain medications. As a last resort I contacted Dr. Anthony and Dr. Julie. They thoroughly explained my injury and the treatment they would use to rehabilitate me. After one adjustment I felt mild relief, after two I was able to sleep a full night - FINALLY. I have resumed my normal activities, marathon running, weight lifting, and taking care of my 5 young children. Chiropractic treatment has given me my life back and given my family their wife and mom back."
"My 4 year old son had been suffering from headaches for about 1 year. They were debilitating, requiring him to miss school many times. He had gone through all the tests including CT scans and MRI's without any answers. Finally we came to see Dr. Anthony and Dr. Julie for an assessment. After he started getting adjusted, my son's headache frequency reduced dramatically. Chiropractic helped our son get his life back and now, 2 years later he rarely gets a headache. I am very glad that we tried chiropractic!"
Frequently Asked Questions
What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care focuses on restoring normal function and alignment of your spine so your nervous system can work the way it should. Your nervous system coordinates every organ, tissue, and gland in your body; when the spine and nervous system are functioning well, your body is better positioned to heal and adapt so you can live with more vitality.
Do chiropractors treat or cure diseases?
Chiropractors do not claim to heal or treat specific diseases the way a medical diagnosis-and-treatment model might. What we do is identify areas of spinal dysfunction (often described as subluxations) and deliver adjustments to reduce nerve irritation and pressure. The goal is to support your body’s own ability to regulate and repair itself.
What kinds of changes do people notice with care?
Many people report less pain, better energy, improved sleep, and an overall greater sense of well-being as they continue care. Everyone responds differently; your experience depends on your history, lifestyle, and what we find in your exam.
What techniques do you use?
We use a range of approaches depending on your needs and comfort. Examples include instrument-assisted adjustments (such as Activator Methods®), manual diversified-style adjustments, drop-table work, joint mobilization, and posture-focused methods such as Clinical Biomechanics of Posture® (CBP®). We will explain what we recommend for you and why.
What sorts of problems lead people to seek chiropractic care?
People come in for many reasons. Common examples include back pain, neck pain, headaches, posture-related issues, sciatica, shoulder and rotator cuff complaints, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel-type symptoms, repetitive strain, breathing complaints, and general stiffness or discomfort. After we understand your history and goals, we will discuss whether chiropractic care is a good fit and what a sensible plan looks like for you.
