Game arcades and big-screen video theaters aren't that unusual in truckstops these days. But just steps away from these truckstop attractions, at a truckstop in Racine County, Wis., truckers find … a model spinal column?
The model hangs outside the door of Jeffrey Hall, a chiropractor who practices at the Highlands Petro.
Steve and Carolyn Dietrich, an owner-operator team from Titonka, Iowa, stopped at the truckstop for the first time in February, to take a shower. They saw a sign advertising Hall's services, and have become regular customers, reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "First time in, I was walking like a question mark," Steve told the paper.

Hall says a lot of truckers have back trouble. They don't get enough exercise, and long periods of unrelieved sitting affects your health no matter what your other health habits, he says.
Nevertheless, chiropractors aren't a common sight at truckstops. "I would be surprised if there were a dozen in the country," said Tom Stanford, publisher of Newport's Truckstop Travel Plaza and RoadStar magazines.
"Years ago it was food and fuel - a greasy spoon and a place to get some diesel," Michael Willkomm, whose family owns Highlands Petro, told the paper. "That's changed because of the dynamics of the industry."
Hall, who opened shop at the truckstop in January, keeps full-time hours, all day during the week and mornings on Saturday. In addition to chiropractic adjustments, he performs DOT physicals. He told the paper he enjoys talking to truck drivers, calling them "intelligent and just very, very outgoing."
