There is no “ one-size-fits-all ” approach to chiropractic care . Dr . Taylor Perry and Dr . Joshua McWilliams of Dunmore Family Chiropractic have built their business with the belief that caring for the whole person means

caring for each patient ’ s individual needs . The doctors follow several different chiropractic techniques and follow a practice-based adjusting protocol , providing a patient experience that cannot be had elsewhere . Meet Dunmore Family Chiropractic ...
When you come here , you get a thorough initial visit so that we can properly diagnose you .
What are some common misconceptions about chiropractic care ?
A lot of people think that you have to be in pain to see a chiropractor . While some patients do wait until the pain is severe to seek treatment , we assist many people who want to prevent pain as well . Just like when you visit a dentist , regular checkups are beneficial to prevent incidents before they occur and to help the body function optimally . Chiropractic is beneficial for treating a variety of conditions , like headaches , numbness / tingling , digestive issues , sinus issues , and ear infections , to name a few .
Besides chiropractic care , what else does your office offer ?
other massage techniques . We are also passionate about nutrition and we have helped patients with diabetes and hypertension . We work with patients on weight loss and help athletes who want to gain muscle .
Could you explain what a “ whole body ” approach to health is ?
In our office , the whole body approach to health begins with the question , “ why ?”. We don ’ t only focus on your symptoms . When you come here , you get a thorough initial visit so that we can properly diagnose you . We want to determine why you are having the symptoms and what is actually causing these symptoms so that we treat what needs to be treated . For example , you may come to us with low back pain . We could adjust your low back multiple times without exploring other options , and the pain will most likely return . With a whole body approach , we might learn that you have fallen arches in your feet , which are contributing to your low back pain and causing it to return . By doing this , we can address the issues in your feet , which will prevent the low back pain from reoccurring . Looking at the body as a whole helps us put the puzzle together more efficiently , allowing us to treat you more effectively .
How do you support your local community ?
National Night Out , Mid-Valley Football T-shirts , Dunmore Football programs , Jog for Jude and various golf tournaments , just to name a few . We also set up tents at different races throughout the community , offering complimentary chair massages to participants . We would not be where we are today without the support of our community and we are proud to give back to them .
How has the Chamber helped your business ?
The Chamber has helped us in many ways but the most important way has been through networking . Networking is a large part of being in business . We met one of our massage therapists at a Chamber networking event . The events not only help us bring business in , but we meet people whose services are valuable to us as well .
