New Patient Special

Dr Sam Magellan 

My story begins back when I was a kid with a snap-on cape and a burning desire to change the world. And while most kids have some type of superhero complex when they are younger, they eventually outgrow it.  

Not me.  

I have spent the vast majority of my life searching for the proverbial burning building that I would run into and save the day. Leaving my mark on this planet. However, stuff like that rarely shows up when or how we expect it to. But more on that later.

Upon the realization that it might take a little longer to change the world than I thought, I got distracted. I found myself graduating from Harvard Kings Cross College of Chiropractic in Boston, Massachusetts with a doctoral degree in Chiropractic Medicine and the impossible dream of one day making back and neck pain a thing of the past.  

But there was a problem.

I was really book smart, but completely unqualified to run a practice. I was too young and inexperienced. I didn't let that stop me. What what I lacked in experience I more than made up for in the ability to market myself and chase my dream with a level of tenacity that the world has never seen. And somehow that was enough to earn my place on the team of the world's leading low back pain Chiropractor, Dr. Emily Booker. After ten years apprenticing with Dr. Booker, I moved back to Berkeley to serve my hometown community in both my clinic and by becoming a community activist. I am deeply involved in the Berkeley Lions Club and with the Berkeley Chamber of Commerce Community Outreach Program.  

I specialize in helping my patients treat their headaches, neck pain, and low back pain through the use of Chiropractic care as well as nutritional and lifestyle support.

★★★★★★★★★★★

"Your team is amazing. I'm 74 and after Dr. M got done with me, now I feel even better than I did back when I was 34, and for me, that means I can spend fun time with my grandkids and great grandkids. I'm a big guy, 6'7, and 30 year ex big rig driver, so I don't cry, but I'm crying right tears of gratitude right now I'm so happy. If there was an 11 in the survey I would have given you that."

What our awesome patients say:

Mary Simmons, Berkeley, CA  

"I was having the worst low back pain and I had tried everything to get rid of it. After going to several medical doctors and taking way more medication than I was comfortable with, I talked with a friend who recommended Dr Magellan. I was nervous about seeing a Chiropractor, but once I met Dr Magellan and his team, I knew that I had been worried for nothing.  

After only 3 treatments, my low back pain was at least 80% better. After a few more treatments and the home exercises, that Dr Magellan showed me, I was back to 100%.  

If you're on the fence, pick up the phone and get in to see Dr Magellan. You won't regret it." - Mary Simmons, Florist in Berkeley, CA

Sam Hunt, Oakand, CA

"I spend a lot of time underneath cars and bent over in odd positions doing my work.  

I had developed a pain in my neck that was constant and, after a few weeks, it had become unbearable. Dr Magellan was a customer at my body shop and I knew he did great work from the other guys in the shop.  

I gave him a call and with just a few adjustments, he had me back to 100%. I didn't have to miss any work and was able to bend in ways that I hadn't been able to in months.  

I send everyone that I know that is in pain to see Dr Magellan and they all have amazing results." - Sam Hunt, Mechanic in Oakland, CA

Beth Lawson, Alameda, CA

"Dr Magellan and his team are absolutely amazing.  

A few years after I retired from teaching, I started noticing that I wasn't moving as great as I used to. I went to my medical doctor and found out that I had arthritis in my hips.  

I followed the course of treatment that my medical doctor prescribed but still suffered through a lot of pain and my ability to get moving wasn't improving.  

My friend told me to come see Dr Magellan and since I've been seeing him, I've seen a drastic improvement in my pain levels and my ability to get moving in the morning without pain.  

Dr Magellan gave me my life back." - Beth Lawson Retired Teacher in San Mateo, CA
