ART care on my shoulder did wonders. However, I'm not sure how to explain the "adjustments" to neck and back. There was no effort to loosen up neck or back muscles prior to adjustment and the result was sore back and my neck was so stiff that no adjustment could be made. read more

Absolutely love this place. Dr. Bradburn is wonderful practitioner. He takes time to answer questions and explains everything. I love his technique in adjustments, thought my chiropractor in CT was good, but was I wrong. The office staff is pleasant and helpful, always looking to help you. It is a fun office visit when Juno is there or the Paws4People are there. Both Dr Bradburn and Dr McGraw are wonderful, knowledgeable, respectful, kind practitioners. read more

Not sure why I haven't left a review yet: I've only been going to Active Care since 2014. It took a lot for me to try chiropractic care, I was one of those people that was terrified to let someone crack my neck. Within a few months, my migraines were under control. It's to the point now that I get one maybe once/twice a month if that; I used to get them 1-2x/week like clockwork. I'm sleeping better. I have more reliable energy (for the most part), and my autoimmune thyroid disorder is in remission. But the biggest change to my life is due to Dr. Bradburn helping me through the difficult year I had questioning severe joint/tendon pain and ultimately being diagnosed with autoimmune arthritis. This in itself makes me extremely emotional: without his help through the pain, inflammation, and swelling with the flares, I really have NO idea how I could have coped with this new phase of my life when I had to be patient with my Rheumatologist trying different things. While pharmacology can be fantastic and sometimes absolutely necessary, it's never the complete solution for all of us. Thank you just doesn't seem sincere enough to express my gratitude to the care I receive at Active Care Chiropractic. You've completely changed my life. read more

I am blown away at the collective and personalized work here at Active Care Chiropractic. I was recommended to come here by a friend and I am forever thankful. I'm halfway through my treatment, seeing very exciting results! Dr. McGraw is highly motivated, incredibly educated, and it's obvious he really cares about his patients. His staff is incredibly kind, welcoming and accommodating. I genuinely look forward to my appointments here. Now that I am educated on the importance of spinal health and how it effects your entire health and wellness, I would encouraging anyone to come see Dr. McGraw. read more

I started seeing Dr. Bradburn at Active Care Chiropractic due to lower back pain and issues with my left wrist and shoulder. I had no idea what to expect as I had never seen a chiropractor before, and I wasn't even sure if they could help. I have been going for treatments for a few weeks now and feel almost completely normal again. My body pain has substantially decreased, I am moving better, my balance has improved and I feel more confident. Dr. Bradburn and his staff really know their stuff. I appreciate that they are kind, considerate and easy to talk to. No question is off-limits, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients. They love what they do and it shows. Please give them a try if you are unsure about chiropractic care or where to start with your treatment. read more

I have had a wonderful experience thus far with Active care the staff are very friendly and eager to help and answer questions. Instead of just adjusting you and sending you on your way Dr. McGraw and Dr. Bradburn actually take the time to socialize with you and ensure you know exactly what they are doing! After my consultation the very next visit was to review my plan of treatment Dr. Bradburn took the time to show me exactly how my spine should move and how it currently was moving I have went from almost a ten in pain to around a 5 in pain in less than a month of treatment. I highly recommend active Care! Especially since they practice active release and help not only to feel better in the moment but to feel better long term! read more

Dr. Levi Bradburn has been excellent in taking my care very seriously. I believe my lumbar spine was damaged by Dr. David Friedman of Wilmington. I have been to two other RIDICULOUS Wilmington chiropractors to try to have them fix the constant knocking sound coming from my lower back that resulted from Dr. Friedman's inappropriate manipulations, but neither of the two had any idea what to do and were literally "scared" to even feel my vertebrae! Dr. Bradburn ordered a set of motion x-rays, and he is doing the Cox-types of manipulations that are safe for my condition. He is involved in my healing process at a personal level, willing to work in conjunction with Dr. Moe Lim, orthopedic surgeon at UNC Chapel Hill, whom I will be seeing shortly regarding the knocking noise. I believe Dr. Bradburn is knowledgeable, caring, professional, and compassionate. He will be moving to the other office on Oleander to partner with the chiropractor there, Dr. Eric McGraw, in April. I highly recommend Dr. Bradburn. read more

Active Care is the best chiropractors office in town. I did a lot of research looking for Active Release Therapy (ART) and it lead me to Dr. Bradburn's office. The entire staff is very knowledgable and incredibly friendly and has helped out both myself and my wife. I was recently in a motorcycle accident where I spent a month in the hospital and was confined to a wheelchair due to a list of injuries. After being discharged I knew that I needed to do something to help me heal so I began researching everything I could. I discovered ART and was lead to Active Care Chiropractic. Dr. Bradburn has been great and has improved my quality of life so much that I suggested my wife come by. My wife and I are competitive powerlifters, or at least I was before the motorcycle accident. After a bad training incident, my wife tweaked her sciatica about a year ago while doing heavy squats. Nothing seemed to help her and it would flair up every time she squatted and started getting progressively worse to the point that she would feel it tighten up even out of the gym. After just a few sessions with Dr. Bradburn she is back to squatting pain free. We both love that Dr. Bradburn looks at the whole patient and does everything in his power to make you feel 100% again. Also as a tip, they have great flavored water every Friday and puppies that come to visit once a month. read more

Dr. McGraw and the team at Active Care Chiropractic truly care about the well being of each of their clients. I went to get breakfast on a Sunday the day after I moved in to my new house, and ended up herniating a disc simply moving my left leg to get out of my car. After sitting in my car not being able to move for 2 hours, I tried to get out of my car. In doing so, my leg gave out as I didn't realize I couldn't put any pressure on it, and ended up folding like a lawn chair also severely spraining my ankle. Dr. McGraw fit me in at 8am the next morning for a consultation as I hobbled in there with a walker at 33 years old. They got me in for X-Rays, and immediately put me on a plan to get back to being able to walk again. In a few short weeks of adjustments, and laser therapy, I was jogging, and feeling better and better. I am now running multiple times a week, lifting weights again, and have not have any abnormal setbacks other than natural soreness in gaining strength back. The staff always welcomes me with smiles and genuinely asking how I was feeling each and every visit. Active Care Chiropractic is my first recommendation to anyone that asks. read more

It took me a long time to go to a chiropractor since I don't like cracking my neck and just the thought of it makes me nervous and as Dr Bradburn can attest I have a hard time relaxing my neck. But as fate would have it, I actually hurt my neck riding my bike one weekend. I was desperate for some relief from the pain and I needed to improve my range of motion. Dr. Bradburn helped me through my neck issues with neck adjustments, active release, exercises and was patient with my questions. He continues to help me through other various injuries associated with my running. I ran my first marathon this year and if Dr. Bradburn hadn't treated me I am not sure I would have enjoyed the experience as much as I did. In fact, I am still running and finished a half marathon this past weekend and plan to have many more. I am approaching my 100th visit soon which seems a little crazy but if being able to move pain free is as important to you as it is to me then I would highly recommend Dr. Bradburn and Activecare Chiropractic. read more

Dr. McGraw has been such a blessing for me. My wife was in a bad wreck earlier in the year and Dr. McGraw helped her out with issues even beyond injuries from her wreck. After conversation, Dr. mcGraw gave my wife a voucher so that I could have a consult and x-ray done to find out what issues I may have, totally free of charge. I went in with an open mind and Dr. McGraw pin pointed my issues that I had been feeling. I have been being treated for a couple months now, and we make progress every time I come in. My back has never been more comfortable. I'm a surfer by hobby, and have had shoulder issues that have limited my ability to surf in demanding conditions. I have noticed huge improvements in my stability on my board through my back, and my paddling power is better than it ever has been through my shoulder. But the part I appreciate the most from Dr. mcGraw is his genuine passion to see his patients thrive. We have discussed what I can do at home to improve my results, and even what I can do to take care of my body post treatment. I strongly recommend Dr. McGraw if you are looking for a fantastic chiropractor and office. read more
