Oh, IT JUST COMES and GOES doctor.
One of the most common phrases I hear from new patients is that their problem or pain just comes and goes, so it’s not that big of a deal. These people are what I call “MINIMIZER”. Another example would be, “Oh, I just take advil for my migraines once in a while.” Define once in a while. Does that mean 2 or 3 time a month or week? Does that mean once a week for the last 10 years? Do you not really know because you take pain relievers everyday, so it seems like once in a while?

It is really incredible when you start asking these questions. When someone starts to see that really they have had a PROBLEM for years and is taking 208 (2 Advil/2x’s week), or more pills a year, but then start to see that their (Once in a while or IT JUST COMES AND GOES) issue is really quite chronic, then they start to realize that they are truly UNHEALTHY. Other than trauma, like a car accident or fall, most chronic injuries or problems like migraines, back pain, insomnia, sciatica, etc, come ONCE IN WHILE for years before they are everyday. Make sure you don’t let your friends and family become MINIMIZER of their health. I see it everyday, and it is sad that they did not become aware of it sooner. It ends up affecting their energy and life by slowly sucking away their energy. You’ve all seen it….the once happy person, who now is always sick or tired and always seems to have a headache or didn’t sleep well, but, oh yeah…for the most part FEEL FINE.

So, when you hear someone say, “OH, IT JUST COMES and GOES,” then ask questions to find out how long they REALLY have had that issue. It may be awkward in the moment, but when they will come out of denial about their health, and get the problem fixed, start living without pain and pain relievers and get back to walking, golfing, gardening, or just picking up their kids or being at work without a headache, WOW…I’ll tell you…YOU will be the first person they thank for having the HUEVOS (that means eggs in Spanish, but really means balls in slang Spanish) …. to tell them the truth :)

BIG HUGS,
Dr. McKinley

I have been going to McKinley Family Chiropractic for almost a year now (or is it longer?). I have NO regrets at all. I have never felt better! The staff and the doctors are absolutely compassionate, caring and very friendly. I feel like I am visiting family each week! They are so knowledgeable and fully explain everything that they are doing. They always are so patient with me when I ask questions and NEVER feel rushed out of there. Give them a try and see for yourself.

I’ve been suffering from strong upper back and neck pain, stretching down the nerves in my arms, since working from home with the onset of the pandemic. Before coming to McKinley Family Chiropractic, I spent thousands of dollars on massages and PT, but the pain was persistent. I was also seeing a chiropractor out in the suburbs, but the commute made it difficult to schedule appointments with frequency, so I only scheduled appointments when the pain got too severe. I wish I started coming to McKinley family chiropractic sooner! Within the first two weeks of the regiment , I felt vast improvement. I no longer have nerve pain, the muscles in my neck were a lot less tense, and my posture improved immensely. They’ve also helped me work through ongoing knee pain that has improved my running form! Moreover, the staff is very kind. I’m always greeted by my first name when I walk in the door and I feel comfortable asking the team any question about pain in the body. Note that the process requires several initial visits (I scheduled appointments 2-3x/week for the 12 visits), but then the visit frequency scales back once I had noticeable improvement. The office does accommodate this by having flexible hours (open until 7pm certain evenings, Saturday morning appointments are always available) and having an efficient schedule ( I rarely stay in the office longer than 10 minutes). I really appreciate Dr. McKinley’s holistic approach to health and wellness and would recommend anyone experiencing pain to visit McKinley Family Chiropractic.

I’ve had such a great time at McKinley Family Chiropractic! The staff is so welcoming and makes you feel right at home even when you’re having problems with your back. I’ve been here with them for about a month and I have nothing but good things to say about the staff and business. With my job I have a different schedule every day and the staff is very accommodating to it, as they have flexible hours so it’s super easy for me to come from work. I recommend coming here if you are having trouble with your back as Dr. Ray and Dr. McKinley have taken very good care of me! I’ve improved in just over a month and have been feeling back to myself thanks to them and the staff
