The chiropractor Wilmington keeps sending its friends to.


Dr. Dan Maggio grew up in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York, earned his Doctorate of Chiropractic at 23, and has spent the last 26 years on Gordon Road putting Wilmington backs, necks and shoulders back where they belong.

He studied music before he studied the spine, and he still plays around town. That ear for detail shows up in the exam room: he listens to the whole story before he touches anything, then explains what he found in plain language. You leave knowing what is wrong, what he is doing about it, and how long it should take.

Families come in for the first adjustment and stay for twenty years. Kids grow up on the table. Grandparents come in to keep gardening. Weekend surfers come in so they can paddle out again Saturday.

  • Diversified, Gonstead and Chiropractic Biophysics techniques, matched to your spine
  • Past President of the Carolina Chiropractic State Association
  • Invited by the International Chiropractic Association to teach and adjust in China

What we treat

Three ways we get you moving again.

Tap any service to see what a visit actually looks like, what it covers, and who it helps most.

Dr. Dan examines how your spine moves before he adjusts a single joint. Where he finds a segment stuck out of position, he restores it by hand, which takes pressure off the nerve and lets the muscle around it let go. Most patients feel the difference walking out to the parking lot.

  • Full spinal and postural exam on your first visit
  • Diversified, Gonstead and CBP techniques, chosen for your case
  • Care for kids, expecting moms, desk workers and athletes
  • A visit plan with an end point, reviewed as you improve

A handheld applicator sends focused electrohydraulic waves into the injured tissue. That mild cellular stress tells your body to repair the area, the same way exercise tells a muscle to get stronger. Nothing gets injected and nothing gets cut. Sessions run five to ten minutes.

  • Non-invasive and drug free, no downtime after
  • Works on chronic pain and fresh injuries alike
  • Improves circulation and takes down inflammation
  • FDA-listed device, often paired with your adjustment

Whiplash hides. You feel stiff for a day, then two weeks later you cannot turn your head backing out of a driveway. Dr. Dan examines you, documents what the crash did, and rehabilitates the joints and soft tissue on a schedule that fits the injury. Bring your claim number to the first visit.

  • Post-accident exam with written findings
  • Records your attorney and adjuster can work from
  • Adjustments plus StemWave to speed soft tissue healing
  • A dedicated personal injury intake form you fill out at home

Ten minutes on the table. Nothing to fill at the pharmacy.

StemWave sends gentle acoustic waves through the painful area and wakes up the repair response your body already owns. Five to ten minutes, no needles, no medication, no recovery time.

  • Relieves pain without drugs, injections or surgery
  • Improves blood flow to tissue that healing has stalled in
  • Calms inflammation and the stiffness that comes with it
  • Safe, FDA listed, and comfortable enough to talk through

Why patients stay

You get the doctor, not a conveyor belt.

Small office, one chiropractor, hours that work around a job. That combination is why people drive past four other clinics to get here.

Dr. Dan treats you himself

Every exam, every adjustment, every follow-up question. Nobody hands you off to a rotating staff, and nobody rushes the table.

Doors open at 7 AM

Come in before work Monday through Friday, or take an afternoon slot Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Your day stays intact.

Nothing gets prescribed

Care here is hands-on and drug free. We restore the joint, calm the tissue, and let your body do the part it was built for.

Paperwork happens at home

Fill out your intake form online the night before, in English or Spanish, and skip the clipboard in the waiting room.

Three techniques, one plan

Diversified, Gonstead and Chiropractic Biophysics. Dr. Dan picks what your spine responds to rather than running one routine on everyone.

26 years of local records

Two decades of Wilmington families, athletes and accident cases have passed through this office. Dr. Dan has seen your problem before.

Your first visit

Your path to relief begins here.

Three steps, one afternoon. You will know where you stand before you leave the building.

STEP 01

Fill out your forms online

Pick the new patient form, the personal injury form, or the Spanish version. Ten minutes on your couch replaces the clipboard, and your file is ready when you walk in.

STEP 02

Get examined by Dr. Dan

He goes through your history, tests how your spine moves, and finds the joints that stopped doing their job. Then he tells you what he found in words you can repeat at dinner.

STEP 03

Start a plan with an end point

You get an adjustment, a StemWave session where it helps, and a schedule tied to your goal. As the pain drops, so does the visit count.

The short version

Ogden Family Chiropractic is a family chiropractic office at 6624 Gordon Rd Ste A in Wilmington, North Carolina, 28411. Dr. Dan Maggio has practiced chiropractic for 26 years and treats back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint pain and auto accident injuries using the Diversified, Gonstead and Chiropractic Biophysics techniques, along with StemWave acoustic wave therapy.

The office opens at 7:00 AM Monday through Friday, adds afternoon hours on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, and is currently accepting new patients. Call 910-686-5220 or fill out a form on this site.

Your nervous system runs through your spine. When a vertebra stops moving the way it should, it irritates the nerve beside it, and the muscle around it tightens to protect the area. Pain, stiffness and reduced range of motion follow. An adjustment restores that motion so the nerve stops getting pinched and the body can regulate itself again.

Three: Diversified, Gonstead and Chiropractic Biophysics. Diversified is the classic hands-on adjustment. Gonstead is a precise, single-segment approach. Chiropractic Biophysics works on the overall alignment of your posture. Which one you get depends on what the exam shows, and it can change as you improve.

That depends on how long the problem has been there and how much of it is joint versus soft tissue. A recent strain can settle in a few visits. A spine that has been compensating for fifteen years takes longer. Dr. Dan gives you a plan with a defined stretch of visits and reassesses as you go rather than keeping you on an open-ended schedule.

No. Some patients come in, get out of pain, and go back to their lives. Others choose a maintenance visit every few weeks the same way they keep up with the dentist, because holding the correction feels better than chasing the flare-up. Both are fine. The choice is yours, and nobody guilts you either way.

Most people describe it as relief. The adjustment itself takes a second and the pressure is brief. If your muscles have been guarding an area for a while, you may feel sore afterward the way you would after a workout. Tell Dr. Dan if anything feels sharp and he adjusts his approach.

It restores motion to a joint that stopped moving, which takes mechanical pressure off the nerve and lets the muscle around it release. Patients report less pain, better range of motion, easier sleep and fewer headaches. Where healing has stalled, StemWave gets added to speed the tissue side of the repair.

No. That sound is gas releasing inside the joint capsule, the same as cracking a knuckle. It has nothing to do with whether the adjustment worked. Plenty of effective adjustments are silent, especially the low-force ones used on kids and older patients.

Newborns can be checked. Birth puts real strain on a baby's neck, and kids collect falls, backpacks and sports hits from there. Pressure for an infant is light, about what you would use to test a ripe tomato. Dr. Dan has adjusted three generations of the same Wilmington families.
