Meet The Doctors
Drs. Scott and Jody Ferreira are licensed Chiropractors serving the Eliot community since 1999.
They have been helping the Seacoast Community regain optimal health in their Wellness Clinic in Eliot, ME.
As Chiropractors with 25+ years of experience, the Doctors are committed to promoting optimal health and well being of patients.
They use a 'whole person approach'. This approach to wellness means looking for underlying causes of any disturbance or disruption (which may or may not be causing symptoms at the time) and make whatever interventions and lifestyle adjustments that would optimize the conditions for normal function.
Using this unique approach, Dr. Scott and Dr. Jody are able to help you to accelerate and/or maintain your journey to good health.
