I had never been to a chiropractor before. I’ve had shoulder/back pain for years, but thought it was simply sore muscles. Dr. Maggie took the time to explain her neurological approach to her practice and how she could help me. She made it make sense and then, she worked her magic. The muscle pain, that had been nagging me for so long, vanished the instant she began adjusting my back!! So grateful for Dr. Maggie & the great folks at Engrained Chiropractic!!

Meet The Doctor
Dr. Maggie Mehaffey, DC
Dr. Maggie Mehaffey is the founder and sole owner of Engrained Chiropractic. Her journey into chiropractic care began as a teenager, after experiencing a low back injury. After spending two years exploring traditional medical approaches without relief, a chance visit to a local chiropractic office changed everything. Just three adjustments helped her body heal faster than anything else she had tried, inspiring her to pursue a career in chiropractic care.
Dr. Mehaffey earned her bachelor’s degree from Western Carolina University before attending Sherman College of Chiropractic in Boiling Springs, South Carolina, one of the top chiropractic schools in the world. She graduated Summa Cum Laude, served as Valedictorian, and received the Clinical Excellence Award for her class. Passionate about helping her community, Dr. Mehaffey is dedicated to empowering her patients to live healthier, more vibrant lives. Outside the office, she enjoys working out, cooking, spending time outdoors, and cherishing moments with her dog, family, and friends. She is also actively involved in her church and local community.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Engrained Chiropractic is a principled, neurologically based practice focused on restoring proper nervous system function, not chasing symptoms. We offer solely chiropractic adjustments, without additional therapies or quick-fix treatments. Our care is proactive rather than reactive, custom to each individual, and centered on long-term health for the whole family.
-
Neurologically based chiropractic care focuses on how well the nervous system is communicating with the body. The nervous system controls every function in the body, and when there is interference, often from spinal misalignments called subluxations, communication can be disrupted. By identifying and correcting these areas, chiropractic care helps the body function, adapt, and heal more efficiently.
-
No. Pain is often a late sign of a problem, and only a small percentage of nerves are responsible for pain. Many people experience nervous system stress long before discomfort appears. Chiropractic care supports overall function, adaptability, and wellness, even if you feel “fine.” Our goal is to help you build health proactively, not wait until pain shows up.
-
Yes. Chiropractic care is safe, gentle, and appropriate for all ages, from infants to adults. Adjustments are always tailored to the individual, using techniques suitable for each stage of life. Many families choose chiropractic care to support healthy development, stronger immune systems, and better adaptability to everyday stress.
-
Your first visit includes a detailed consultation, neurological assessments, Insight scans and X-Rays to evaluate how your nervous system is functioning. We take time to understand your goals and explain what we find in a clear, supportive way. From there, we create a care plan specific to your needs, focused on restoring function and supporting long-term health.
-
Care frequency varies based on your nervous system’s current level of stress, your goals, and how your body adapts over time. Chiropractic care is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Some people begin with more frequent visits to create change, then transition into wellness-based care. We regularly reassess progress to ensure care remains appropriate and purposeful.
