Our Team

Dr. David Kane

Dr. Kane graduated from Life University in Marietta, Georgia in 1992 as a Doctor of Chiropractic. He began his career working as a traveling chiropractor throughout New Hampshire and Massachusetts. It was during this time that Dr. Kane also had the opportunity to practice abroad in Como, Italy and learn  new techniques and practices from influential natural healers.

Southern Maryland Chiropractic Center opened in Waldorf, Maryland in 1998. Since the opening of the practice, Dr. Kane and his wife have let their roots run deep within this community by living and raising their three children in the area.

Over the past 30 years, Dr. Kane has been certified in the Physical Therapy arts in the state of Maryland and has a dedicated space within the clinic to administer physical therapy and rehabilitation for his patients. His chiropractic techniques are based on making treatment comfortable and gentle. While Dr. Kane keeps it simple, all his techniques are gentle, low force, that still show impactful results.

Dr. Kane believes simplicity is the most important philosophy and has embedded that throughout the foundation of his practice.
