Dr. Linda Rock

Dr. Linda Rock, formerly Dr. Linda Rich, is a native of New York.  Her family relocated to South Florida when her father retired from the NYC Police Department in 1977.  Dr. Rock attended Broward Community College, and then went on to Brenau University in Gainesville, Georgia.  She attended Life Chiropractic College in Marietta, Georgia, and graduated in 1990.  Dr. Rock met Dr. Bruce Thomas at that time, and they combined their experience and passion for taking care of patients after both relocating to Brandon, Florida in 2001.  In 2008 they started Light and Life Chiropractic Center, LLC.

Dr. Linda Rock has been practicing in Florida since 1994.  She has 3 children, Captain Robert Consiglio, USAF, Pilot Flying C-130J’s, Allison McCrory, working and residing in Riverview, FL, and Vincent Consiglio, a recent graduate of USF with a degree in Criminology.  She has worked with large dog rescue for over 25 years, and provides foster care for the “not yet adoptable”.  Two special needs Weimaraners still reside in her home.

Dr. Linda Rock is active in the Riverview and Valrico Chambers of Commerce, as well as several civic organizations.  She has been a volunteer for the Boy Scouts for the past 25 years.  One of her passions has been to educate the community on health and well being, and she has taught hundreds of students on these subjects.   She consistently provides nutritional classes to her patients and community, because she knows that what you put into your body will have a direct effect on how the body functions overall.

Dr. Rock believes that the body is a whole, and takes the philosophy that there are alternative treatments available.  She has over 25 years of experience helping patients with various conditions.  Though many of her patients go to the office for chiropractic treatment, there are several other state of the art treatments available.  Dr. Rock has extensive training in Laser Therapy (Class IV) and Spinal Decompression, which has been very effective in the treatment and management of bulging and herniated discs.  She has experience working with pregnant women as well as children, providing care throughout the many changes associated with pregnancy.  Biofeedback is another service offered at her clinic.  Prior to relocating to this area, Dr. Rock practiced in a holistic health care center, which provided Midwifery, Acupuncture, Massage, and Chiropractic.   She brings with her knowledge of alternative therapies to address a vast majority of health issues.
