Headaches
Report
Are you sick and tired of having headaches? Have you really tried everything only to find the headache back a few days later? Maybe it is time to try something really different. A new method that combines soothing massage of the neck and shoulders combined with a Chiropractic Specialty called Activator Methods could be the answer you have been looking for? The best part of our treatment for headaches and migraines is that we can help you get off the medications that pack on the weight. It is bad enough your head hurts but when you gain unwanted pounds from the medications you are prescribed. Bring us your MRI and let’s see if we can help make a difference.
Arthritis Pain
Report
There are several types of arthritis. The most common form is osteoarthritis where the cartilage wears away. Arthritis is characterized by wearing away the joint space, pain in the joint and lack of proper mobility. Most people as they age experience the pain of arthritis in areas where they had some form of trauma earlier in life. The joint never fully heals properly and over time the joint becomes permanently damaged. The older we become the more the pain increases in that area.
Neck Pain
Report
Here at Core Health Darien we will do a thorough exam to determine what caused your neck pain. We will find what caused you to have the neck pain during our exam which includes xrays and palpation. We then formulate which chiropractic treatment will offer you the best relief for your neck pain. We have found that using chiropractic care along with massage and physical therapy speeds the healing time for even the most chronic and severe cases of neck pain. Some patients will present with headaches and neck pain. These patients are quite happy to have their neck soreness disappear as their headaches go away. The spinal bones in the neck are often the cause of headaches when the spinal vertebra subluxate and create tension on the base of the brain. Chronic neck pain sufferers tend to have headaches.

Above & Beyond. Was having back problems, couldn't bend my back at all and dealing with bad pain. By the end of the first session, I could already feel a change. Most importantly, Dr. McKay explains what he is doing step by step, while him and his staff make you feel comfortable, almost like you have known them for years!

I am so thankful for the superior treatment and the overall experience that I received from Core Health Darien. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Brian McKay and his team. Every time I have been there for treatment, I felt important and cared about. Dr. Brian has a great heart and he really loves helping patients to succeed and to feel better.
I have stated already that everyone at Core Health Darien is truly amazing, but they also have superior treatment technologies, that will do magic on your ailments. So, by going here you will have the best Doctor and staff in this medical field, you will have the best state of the art equipment, so if any medical office will make you feel better, then look no further then Core Health Darien.
My story: I was on vacation in the Dominican Republic a while ago, and the horse-riding place that I went to, took me on a dangerous trail, my horse tripped on sharp rocks and flew me forward into the air and I landed on my right shoulder and neck. Nothing was broken, but I experienced severe nerve and muscle damages. I was hurt and not feeling like me, and also having bad posture habits already at my sales job, I gradually lost my center of gravity with my posture, which caused me severe pain and anxiety.
Core Health Darien is the only place that has given me any relief to the symptoms from the injury and the years of bad desk and phone postures while working. I am hoping that I will be saving someone, like me who reads reviews, that your search is over for finding great treatment. I believe Core Health Darien is the only solution for you to heal and to feel better.
I was lost and felt hopeless, bur Dr. Brian McKay and his team has given me new hope and new courage, that I am on a path of feeling and being healthy again. I have already seen and have felt so many new improvements in my health from receiving treatments from Core Health Darien. I am so thankful for having Core health Darien as such a vital part in my life with my healing and recovery.

I highly recommend making an appointment at Core Health if you are someone suffering from headaches or have pain. I have had headaches for years and decided to finally do something about it. Dr. McKay is outstanding and was able to identify issues in my neck, which were causing my headaches. After multiple visits, I now rarely experience a headache! Overall, the staff at Core Health is amazing, everyone is very welcoming and all share the same goal of trying to help you!

Dr. McKay has brought me real relief from my constant neck and back pain. Please read my detailed review from a year ago, but I wanted to update my progress during this pandemic. I am a teacher and distance learning has taken its toll on my spine. 12 hours (sometimes more) hunched over a laptop at my kitchen table. If it weren't for Dr. McKay, I might never stand up straight again. If you're in pain, this is the place to come for help!

I come every weekend with so many ailments and Doctor Brian Mckay always fixes them. My mom even had plantercitis and he even helped her foot feel much better. This man is amazing!!!! Highly recommend him! My mom and I get stem and get adjustments from him. Everyone in the office is so friendly and they go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and receive the treatment you need!

Dr. MaKay and his whole staff were excellent! I came in with a chronic lower back condition that’s bothered me for years and left feeling better than I ever have. On top of that I now know what it takes to keep it that way. I NEVER FELT as though I was being made to keep coming just to keep me paying, as I have felt other places. He stated he wouldn’t do that when we spoke day 1, and he didn’t.
When we came to a point where I was feeling better and he felt that I should be in good shape to stop regular visits, the response was call us when you need us. Definitely will use in future (if needed) and would highly recommend. Thanks!

The treatments from Dr. Brian McKay and his team at Core Health Darien have been life changing and life affirming for me. The most important outcome has been the elimination of previously necessary pain medication to manage the multiple challenges of what I believed were inevitabilities of "normal aging". The by products of his guidance-Increased mobility, ability to continue with strength and conditioning regiments I had to reduce or eliminate, and better sleep are just some of the outcomes his treatments have delivered. I highly recommend anyone questioning the cause and effect of chronic pain and mobility issues to seek his guidance.

The first thing I need to say about Dr. McKay is he is much much more than a chiropractor. As a Chiropractor he is highly experienced and his office is has state of the art equipment and his staff is completely professional. Dr. McKay is actually a highly sensitive, intuitive, and kind healer. He certainly does everything that is needed to quickly resolve and correct whatever someone brings to him in terms of a problem, but his treatment is much much more.
I started out 18 years ago with a chronic backache and after that was quickly resolved by working with Dr. McKay I truly became a different person. His work and his way of dealing with people is truly inspiring.

Brian McKay is a true healer who traces physical problems to their source before administering treatment. As such he exposes the underlying cause, not just the pain or discomfort that followed and sent the patient to him in the first place. Chiropractic treatment is only one of many elements he draws on. As such he has a holistic view of the body and its systems.
The techniques he deploys are all aimed at allowing the body to heal itself. I enthusiastically recommend both him and his excellent and deeply caring staff to our local community.
