Michael Mulvaney feels your pain. The chiropractor with the Spinal Correction Center of Richmond got into the business after his athletic pursuits left him in pain from ages 13 to 21. A visit to a chiropractor changed his life. “What makes him a really great doctor is he actually listens to patients,” wife and receptionist Cynthia Mulvaney says. “He finds the source of the issues they’re having and takes a more holistic view when possible.” He’s worked with Olympic athletes and Monument Avenue 10-K runners alike. The center doesn’t just treat symptoms — Mulvaney keeps workout equipment in the office so he can check your form and find a cause.
