What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic – and Chiropractic Physicians – specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions involving the joints, muscles, nerves and other soft tissues.
Chiropractic takes a drug-free, hands-on approach to treatment, and has had great success with conditions such as headaches, whiplash, neck pain and back pain to name a few.
Chiropractic is the largest segment of alternative healthcare and is the third largest branch of medicine. This gain in popularity is due to the incredible advances in Chiropractic education and training, and the fact that people want healthier options than medication and surgery.
Chiropractors are concerned with fixing the root cause of a particular condition rather than simply treating symptoms with medication and surgery. By improving the way the body functions, Chiropractic helps people enjoy healthier, more active lives, free of pain.

What Do Chiropractors Do?
Chiropractors specialize in improving the function of the spine, extremities and soft tissues. Poor posture, injury, aging and repetitive strain from work and sports all cause wear and tear on the joints and soft tissues.
Joints lose their ability to function normally and muscles and soft tissues become stiff and weak. Chiropractors use a wide range of techniques designed to restore normal function to the joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves.
Chiropractic care is effective at eliminating pain and muscle spasm, and improving joint flexibility and ranges of motion. Chiropractic can also significantly improve athletic performance. After receiving Chiropractic care, patients often report they feel better, sleep better, have more energy, and recover from sports and physical activity more quickly.
What Makes Dr. McGahey Different?
Dr. McGahey takes a comprehensive approach to treatment. In addition to being a Chiropractor, Dr. McGahey is a certified Active Release Technique practitioner (C.ART), and a certified Kinesio Taping Practitioner (CKTP). He is currently completing his certification as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). This allows him to manage all components of a specific injury or condition and not simply limit treatment to the spine and joints.
Dr. McGahey also works closely with other healthcare providers to insure the best treatment possible.
“I think it’s important to manage both the joint and soft tissue components of a condition or injury if you want to achieve a significant, long-lasting result. Without a well-rounded approach to treatment, the problem is likely to return.”
This approach can help improve results, decrease the time spent running to appointments, and get you back to enjoying life more quickly.
