The Root Health and Performance

The Root Health and Performance is a hidden gem in the chiropractic world of Westwood.
I’m very active and not restricted in most of my movements, but I was having occasional issues with my knees that no one seemed to understand.
Dr. Murtaugh did a very thorough exam and was able to identify the issue and create a program that effectively addressed the problem.
He’s extremely knowledgeable, detailed, and genuinely driven to find the root cause rather than offering superficial solutions.
Highly recommended!

I have had the best experience with Dr. Dan Murtaugh. I have been seeing him for a couple months now. I have had chronic neck and shoulder pain. He really takes his time and is very thorough. I can finally say I am not having any nerve pain. He has also implemented at home stretches and workouts to continue reaching my goal of a pain free and healthy life. I cannot thank him enough for all of his care and expertise! I don’t feel dismissed and he listens to all my concerns. Look no further! I highly recommend going to see him!

I rarely ever leave reviews, but after my life Changing experience with Dr. Murtaugh I feel compelled. I had been dealing with an unknown pain in my neck/shoulder/back that impacted my life every day. I couldn’t play golf, exercise, or even drive my car without severe pain for over 5 YEARS straight. I visited multiple doctors who all said they had no answer for the pain and prescribed physical therapy which provided no relief. When I met Dr. Murtaugh, I was skeptical when he said he could help me since no other doctor could. During our first treatment, he seemed to know exactly what the issue was, pinpointing the pain and demonstrating my restricted movement on one side vs the other. After my 5th visit, I have now been PAIN FREE for almost a month! I almost forgot the pain ever existed! Thank you Dr. Murtaugh for changing my life and getting me back to enjoying my hobbies pain free. I cannot recommend him enough as a true professional and one of the nicest doctors I have ever met that really cares about his patients.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Dan for a few months now, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the exceptional care I've received! From the very first appointment, I felt welcomed and completely at ease. Unlike other chiropractors I’ve seen, where treatment often felt like a quick fix, Dr. Dan takes a comprehensive approach aimed at lasting results. He thoroughly assessed my pain and developed a personalized plan that has genuinely improved my back pain and overall mobility. Having a background in semi-professional sports and multiple surgeries, I’ve struggled to find someone who truly understands and addresses my specific needs and long list of sports-related aches. Dr. Dan is the first chiropractor who has consistently tackled each of my pain points, providing invaluable insights and knowledge.

The office is not only clean and well-organized but also equipped with a versatile rehab room. Here, Dr. Dan was able to replicate specific movements I’d been struggling with, which helped pinpoint and address my issues at the source. The bespoke rehab equipment he uses—often seen only at top sports medicine facilities—has been key to my recovery. If you're looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about your long-term well-being, I can’t recommend Dr. Dan highly enough

I CAN WORK. I CAN LIFT. I CAN RUN. From Dr Dan I was given a root-cause perspective of my symptoms and functional limitations that I hadn’t gotten anywhere in the past. He implemented what I told him had given me relief with other chiropractors and combines it with highly effective soft tissue and rehabilitation treatments that absolutely exceed the standard of care I am used to.

What I truly appreciate is the commitment to personalized care. Every adjustment, the treatment plan, is tailored to my body and goals. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, something recent, or even looking to maximize your health, this clinic has expertise to guide you through it all.

Thanks Dr. Dan!!
