Why Spineworks?

Spineworks Physical Medicine is a multi-year finalist and the 2022 & 2023 Best of Morgantown Award WINNER for Best Chiropractor (Dr. Timothy Dorey). Dr. Dorey is a West Virginia native and was trained in Chicago at the National University of Health Sciences (formerly known as National Chiropractic College) before opening up Spineworks in 2015. “Spineworks has the honor of being rated 5.0 STARS on numerous social media platforms (ie. Google, Facebook, and Yelp) and has 200+ positive reviews.

At Spineworks, Dr. Dorey and his team use various chiropractic manipulative therapies and physiotherapy techniques to provide patients with quick relief from tight joints and muscles to more serious and acute issues like sciatica, intervertebral disc degeneration, and facet joint arthritis. Adjustments alone work great for tightness, but for the more painful neurologic issues, more aggressive therapies are needed. Spineworks utilizes the following for more serious back issues:

• Long-axis manual and automated decompressive traction (ie. flexion-distraction technique) to make space in specific spinal regions where pathology like bulging discs, arthritis, etc. may be impinging or compressing nerves causing significant pain locally with the possibility of radiation into legs/arms.

• Manual lumbo-sacral (or cervical) decompressive stretching by our therapists into impingement-reducing and pain-relieving positions that clients are unable to do on their own. The repetition of these joint traction movements opens the areas in the low-back (or neck) where the nerves exit the vertebrae, thereby reducing compressive forces of degeneration and spasm.

• Chiropractic manual therapy (or adjustments) to the affected area(s). More specifically, we use National-Diversified full-spinal and extra-spinal (ie. hips, knees, ribs, ears, elbows, hands, feet, etc.) techniques, along with many other methods like Tubio, Y-Strap or towel-traction adjustments, and Thompson drops.

Spineworks does not believe in selling products, signing treatment plans, making patients do work in-office (that’s our job!), or over-emphasizing your condition to see you more frequently. We believe in hard work, minimal visits, and proven techniques. We are true spinal HealthCARE. Click here to see more about our pricing.
