We first began in this location in April 2009 and chose 209 Western Avenue in South Portland for its proximity to many local businesses, bus lines, and convenience to the major arteries of I-295 and the Maine Turnpike.

Our Philosophy

We have always felt that chiropractic is a personal thing and do not believe in the standard care plan for everyone, i.e., three times a week for six weeks, two times a week for four, etc.

When we recommend care, it is because we are looking to find that place that works best for each person’s body. Respecting each person and his or her needs comes first. Our office is one of friends. We believe that the body is a self-healing, self-regulating organism, and if we unravel the causes of interference, we can enjoy health at the level appropriate for each individual.

Our Patients

Our ideal client is someone who is an active participant. If we suggest a lifestyle change, they are willing to jump in and try at least some form of it. People change and grow at their own pace, but the willingness to change is paramount to life. These people seem to get the best results because they want results.

New Patent Concerns

The most frequent question that I am asked by new patients “Are you ever afraid you are going to hurt and/or break someone or something?”

I respond with “No. I wouldn’t do anything to you that I wouldn’t do to my five-year-old son.”

Our Dream for the Health of our Community

We would like to see an increased level of awareness that the body can function well with a little bit of knowledge, some accountability, some education and movement.

Dr. Sara Asks some important questions of interest to South Portland residents - Chiropractor South Portland Dr. Sara Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our South Portland chiropractic practice.
