Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Manual therapy techniques that realign spinal joints to reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve nervous system function. Our chiropractors use controlled force adjustments tailored to each patient's condition. This treatment helps alleviate back pain, neck pain, headaches, and musculoskeletal imbalances through precise bone positioning.
Massage Therapy
Customized massage treatments combining Swedish relaxation techniques with deep tissue work to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. Our licensed therapists use myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and hot stone applications to address chronic pain, sports injuries, and stress-related conditions through hands-on soft tissue manipulation.
Auto Injury Treatment
Specialized care for whiplash, soft tissue damage, and musculoskeletal injuries from car accidents. We develop PIP-compliant treatment plans using chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, and ultrasound therapy to restore function and document progress for insurance purposes while addressing both immediate symptoms and long-term recovery needs.
Work Injury Rehabilitation
Workers' compensation-approved treatments for job-related injuries including carpal tunnel syndrome, sprains, and repetitive motion disorders. Our rehabilitation programs combine manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and ergonomic education to facilitate safe return-to-work transitions while meeting state regulatory requirements for documentation and progress tracking.
Structural Integration
Holistic bodywork focusing on connective tissue realignment to improve posture, reduce chronic pain, and enhance movement efficiency. This multi-session approach systematically releases fascial restrictions through deep-tissue manipulation, creating lasting improvements in physical alignment and functional mobility patterns over time.

I've had very good experiences here. Dr. Noel is very knowledgeable and has been able to accurately diagnosis many of my aches and pains. With the exercises he recommended I've been able to greatly reduce my pain. They also take my insurance which is a huge benefit.

Dr. Sean White and the team at Portland Chiropractic are amazing! If you are looking for a chiropractor in Portland, Dr. White is the best in town. The approach to treatment at Portland Chiropractic is very different than other places I have received treatment. Dr. White comes in, assess what's going on, then he does massage and works some tension out of your muscles before he adjust you. He then goes over in detail exercises that you can do at home. The result is that the adjustments are far more effective because your body is relaxed, and you recover faster. Dr. White did a great job for me and

Met with Dr. Sean for my first chiropractic experience. I was experiencing knee pain, and calf pain that was limiting my running. We worked on my knee during the session and I received information on how to strengthen my knee and prevent other issues from getting worse. Since the treatment for my knee I have been running pain free. I would highly recommend Dr. Sean to anyone!

Dr.White is amazing. Hes been helping me for about a year now and I've never felt better. He was exceptionally helpful after a fall that caused some pretty bad whiplash. The whole office is very kind and great with scheduling.

My experience at Portland Chiropractic has been truly remarkable! A while ago, my neck was so painful that sitting and doing daily activities was next to impossible.

He explained each exercise and provided corrective feedback, then followed up with instructional
