I have a 37 degree scoliotic curvature. My entire Lombar area is fused : total 21 titanium implants. I've been using chiro all my life. Dr. Karen is the first chiro who has ever been able to help me. And Charles is her massage therapist who's absolutely brilliant, dealing with my back spasms.. I honestly don't know what I would do without them.

Island Healing has enhanced my life in so many ways. From expert chiropractic treatment with Dr. Karen to theraputic massages. There is a guided detox and expert yoga instruction. I feel like a member of their family, even my dogs have gotten adjustments. The commitment from the faculty at Island Healing to the Brunswick county community is obvious.

Feeling cared for vs feeling "processed" is very important to me. Healing is a holistic thing and Dr Karen, Charles, and the rest of the staff are fully tuned in to this. Always a great experience! Thank you for helping keep me healthy!!

I just have to say Thanks to Dr Karen for taking care of me. As a kind caring professional she has always been able to correct my issues.
Her staff, Amy is always so pleasant and a pleasure to work with. And her Massage Therapist Agness, is the greatest as she was able to bring immediate relief to my sore muscles. I do appreciate the service they provide and look forward to my next visit.

Absolutely amazing. Went in with a killer headache. Ben was very professional and knew exactly how to relieve my pain without doing too much or too little. He communicated with me to make sure I was comfortable and explain what he was feeling but not too much so I could totally relax. Would recommend to anyone looking to relax or in need of relief.
