Meet Dr. Brian McGuckin

Led to Chiropractic by a Powerful Experience

Dr. McGuckin’s first experience with chiropractic was in high school. “I had terrible muscle spasms in my neck and upper back, and nothing seemed to help the constant pain I was in.” His energy levels dropped, and headaches were a daily occurrence. With his frustration growing, his mother suggested they visit a chiropractor, he agreed.

In a few words, it worked! I was surprised that something so simple could have such a dramatic effect.”

Dr. McGuckin was surprised, however, that he had to continue seeing the chiropractor to fix his problem. Later on, this would lead to his interest in nutrition and how it allows the body to better hold a chiropractic adjustment.

His experience with the chiropractor made a strong impression. Along with his curiosity about the underlying cause of his health problems, it directed him toward the chiropractic profession.
