Care from people who've lived it.

Innate Living was founded by a family who understands what it's like to search for real answers. That's why every patient is treated like family.

Dr. Thomas McGuire, DC

Founder | Chiropractor

Dr. Tom McGuire, DC

Dr. Tom found chiropractic at 19 after years of digestive problems no specialist could solve. One week of care changed his life and his career path. He now leads every plan personally: chiropractic, functional lab work, nutrition, supplementation, and movement, all built around the person in front of him. And because real results happen between visits, every patient gets Dr. Tom's personalized guidance to follow at home, so you're never doing this alone.

She built Innate Living with Dr. Tom around a shared vision for personal, patient-centered care, and today focuses on making sure every patient feels heard, supported, and truly cared for.

Common questions

Frequently asked.

What is chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care helps the bones in your back and neck move the way they should. When those bones move right, your nerves work better. And when your nerves work better, your whole body feels better.

Does chiropractic help with back pain?

Yes. Back pain is the number one reason people come see us. First we find out what is really causing it. We may take special moving X-rays. Then we make a plan to help it, so the pain does not keep coming back.

Do I need a referral to come in?

No. You do not need a referral. Just call us or book online. We will talk with you first about what is going on, then show you how we can help.

What happens at my first visit?

Your first visit takes about 30 to 45 minutes. We listen to your story and check your body. If you need X-rays, we take them right here. Dr. Tom looks at everything, then you come back so he can explain what is wrong and how to help. We do not adjust you until we know what is going on.

Is chiropractic safe for kids and babies?

Yes. We take special care with babies and kids. The touch we use on a baby is very soft, about as light as you would press to test a ripe tomato. We keep it gentle and right for their age.

What is functional health care?

Functional health care looks for the real reason you do not feel well. We do deep lab tests to find what is off. Then we make a simple plan with food, vitamins, and daily habits. It works together with your regular doctor, not instead of them.

Do you take insurance?

Yes. We take most big insurance plans for chiropractic care. Functional health care is a low cash price so more people can afford it. Call us and we will check your insurance before your first visit.

How soon will I feel a difference?

Many people feel better in their first few visits. To stay better, we use the whole plan: adjustments, simple exercises, and small daily habits. We also test how you are doing so you can see it working.
