meet The Doctor

Dr. Shawn McKenzie

Dr. Shawn McKenzie provides chiropractic care designed to restore how your body moves and functions. Every visit starts with a hands-on assessment to identify the root cause of your pain or limitations. Whether you’re dealing with back pain, joint stiffness, or nagging injuries, his goal is to help you feel better—not just for a day, but for the long haul.

A hands-on, individualized approach to care

Root-cause focused treatment, not just symptom relief

A doctor who listens, explains, and guides you through every step

He also specializes in applied kinesiology, a technique that uses muscle testing to evaluate how your nervous system responds to stress. This allows him to dig deeper into what’s going on and create a plan tailored to your body’s specific needs. It’s a tool that helps guide care and track progress in a way most standard exams can’t.

With a background in sports science and rehabilitation, Dr. McKenzie also builds rehab-based plans that support active lifestyles. These plans often include targeted exercises to reinforce what’s done in the office and help you stay out of pain between visits. Whether you’re an athlete or just want to move better day to day, his care is designed to support how you live.

What Sets Us Apart

Movement-Based Assessments

Care that starts with how you move, not just where you hurt.

Dr. McKenzie uses functional movement testing to uncover the root cause of your issue. Instead of chasing symptoms, he identifies how your joints, muscles, and nervous system are working together. This approach leads to more accurate treatment and faster, longer-lasting results.

Applied Kinesiology Expertise

A deeper way to evaluate stress, balance, and the nervous system.

Applied Kinesiology helps reveal how your body responds to physical and emotional stress. Dr. McKenzie uses muscle testing to guide care decisions beyond what imaging or posture alone can show. It’s a powerful tool for customizing treatment and tracking progress over time.

Sports Science and Rehab Background

Support for recovery, performance, and staying active at every level.

With a master’s in Sports Science and Rehabilitation, Dr. McKenzie understands how to keep your body moving well. He works with both athletes and everyday patients to improve mobility, strength, and stability. His care plans often include rehab exercises that reinforce results between visits.
