    We only provide services on a privately contracted, member-to-member basis. Our services are not offered to the general public, and so you must become a member of our association ($20 total fee, one-time for lifetime membership) prior to receiving services.

“As a Marine Combat veteran I was struggling with getting the right help for my pains for over 20 years, but over the last year I received the best, most professional chiropractic care with Dr. Murphy with his attention to detail finding the root cause of my aches and pains. With his unorthodox methods my pain is managed and handled week in and week out. I seldom have flare ups and I'm never hindered from doing my favorite activities.”
