The McCarter team includes two doctors of chiropractic - Dr. Joseph McCarter and Dr. Heather McCarter, liscenced physical therapist Darrin Marsh, liscenced massage therapist Lori Limb, as well as several experienced office workers. This father-daughter team and its professional staff focus on the overall health and wellness of its patients, specializing in chiropractic care, physical therapy, massage therapy, hormone treatment, rehabilitation, and aiding patients with overall lifestyle improvement. In addition, each healthcare provider regularly receives specialized traning in his or her area of expertise, and is recognized for professional excellence in his or her field.
