Chiropractic Care
Dr. McGraw uses traditional chiropractic care to heal spine related conditions. Dr. McGraw uses light and effective adjustment to the spine. These adjustments will restore proper motion to misaligned spinal joints. This will alleviate pressure on the spinal cord and the patient's pain significantly. Spinal joints will lose their normal motion due to physical and mental stress.

Active Release Techniques
Active Release (ART) separates our office from any other health care providers in Wilmington! Although Active Release is accepted by physicians, physical therapists, and chiropractors alike, Dr. McGraw is the only certified full body ART provider in Wilmington, as well as the first ART provider in Wilmington. ART is a hands on therapy that removes scar tissue without injuring surrounding muscle, ligaments, or nerves. Scar tissue will form in our body mainly from acute injuries and repetitive movements. Using this therapy we have helped conditions such as arthritis, achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and many more.
- ART is so effective, that GE, Pepsi Bottling, Sealy Mattress, and Tropicana Fruit to name a few have placed Active Release providers on site to treat their employees.
