After years of providing chiropractic house calls across Western Maine, I’ve created two dedicated office spaces to better serve the overwhelming demand for care—while still offering house calls for those who need them.
Serving the River Valley: Andover, Byron, Canton, Carthage, Dixfield, Hanover, Mexico, Peru, Roxbury, Rumford
Monday: 7:00 am – 3:30 pm
Wednesday: 8:00 am – 4:00 pm
Serving Farmington, Jay, Livermore & nearby towns
Thursday: 12:30 pm – 5:00 pm
By reducing my time on the road, I can open up more appointments and maintain my commitment to longer visits and focused care. Each office offers the same pricing, the same 30-minute follow-up visits, and one-hour new patient exams—and both are bookable online.
A sincere thank-you to the great folks I rent from at SmartCare Physical Therapy and Farmington Chiropractic for making these opportunities possible.

Dr. Cory is a fee-for-service provider, which means you pay for each visit at the time of service.
When you book your first appointment, you will complete the steps via email to create a secure patient profile.
Once you have established yourself as a patient with Dr. Cory St. Denis, your first appointment will involve a thorough review of your medical history and a chiropractic examination. This examination can include measurements of your height, weight, blood pressure, pulse, and respiration. Additionally, orthopedic assessments and various neurological tests may be conducted to determine if chiropractic care is necessary or appropriate. After the examination, you will receive recommendations, and if deemed necessary, you will receive chiropractic care.
During any necessary follow-up visits, Dr. Cory will evaluate your progress and provide a specialized session based on your needs.
1: Active Chiropractic care plan – This recommendation comes when a burst of appointments is required to provide active care. This is *generally 4-6 adjustment sessions or 4-6 weeks of weekly adjustments.
2: Pro-Active Chiropractic care plans: Patients can elect to continue with wellness-minded visits after completing an active care plan. These are usually once-monthly visits scheduled six months to 1 year in advance. These appointments focus less on chiropractic services and more on movement or nutrition programs, brain training, stress reduction work, or other long-term strategies for healthier living.

If you are over the age of 65, Dr. Cory will discuss with you how medicare would handle your situation based on your examination findings. Medicare does not cover the initial examination appointment for any chiropractor.
I was a kid who couldn’t sit still during class, spoke more than I listened, and had more busy energy than I knew what to do with. The adjustments were helpful to my sports performance, but what surprised me was in school, I was much less distracted because my body was so calm. It was noticing this brain-body connection that drove me to study the brain.
I became a Doctor of Chiropractic in August of 2014, and from there, I moved to Maine. I have been practicing to master the thoughtful application of chiropractic and how appropriate care can positively influence brain function.
Whether you see me for a house call or over at SmartCare in Dixfield, I will provide you with the same quality chiropractic session based on your needs. My focus will be to help you get your brain and body working together to help you thrive.

Why Didn’t I Do This Sooner?
I hear this all the time at second visits.
The first visit is always a little different. That’s where I get to meet someone for the first time, really dig into their history, perform a thorough exam, think through a working diagnosis, and start putting together what’s actually going on. It’s a full, investigative visit and honestly one I look forward to every single time. I get to think outside the box, look at movement patterns, test neurological function, and often perform some initial adjustments.
But the second visit is my favorite.
Because that’s where I often hear: “Why didn’t I do this sooner?”
Earlier this week, I had someone say exactly that at their second visit. Another mentioned that after telling their family how much better they were feeling, the response they got back was “why didn’t you try this sooner?” especially knowing how long they had been dealing with the issue before finally coming in.
A lot of people come in expecting:
• that it’s going to hurt
• that things might get worse before they get better
• that one session couldn’t possibly make a difference
And while everyone’s situation is different, many people are surprised that care doesn’t increase their pain or set them back the way they expected it might. In some cases meaningful change can begin quickly. Mobility improves. The body calms down. Symptoms start to centralize or reduce. Sleep improves. Headaches ease up. Movement becomes less guarded.
Sometimes progress is more gradual, especially when someone has been dealing with a more significant injury or long-standing issue. But even then, having a clear plan and starting the process tends to bring a sense of relief and direction that wasn’t there before.
I think a big part of this comes down to people not giving themselves permission to participate in self-care.
That’s actually something I’ve heard over and over again from mentors and coaches for the last 15 years. And if I’m being honest, I didn’t fully understand what they meant the first several times I heard it. I remember thinking, “Of course people are allowed to take care of themselves… what does that even mean?”
But over time in practice, especially hearing “why didn’t I do this sooner?” at second visits, I’ve started to see what they were talking about.
You might hear great things from friends or family about a local chiropractor. You might deal with something for months or even years. And for one reason or another, you just don’t make the appointment. Not because you don’t care about your health, but because life gets busy, other people’s needs come first, or you convince yourself it’s not bad enough yet.
Of course there are good reasons not to schedule with someone new. But there are just as many reasons why you should.
No one is meant to handle everything alone. Having a conservative healthcare provider in your corner can make a real difference in how you recover, move, and handle the stressors that come with everyday life.
If you’ve been putting it off, I see patients through my house call routes, at SmartCare PT in Dixfield, and at Farmington Chiropractic each week.
You might be surprised how quickly things can start to change.

Gearing up for another awesome week. Every single day this week I start serving patients at 6:00 am, and I would not have it any other way.
Today in Dixfield has been a full stretch of solving life’s problems. Headaches and migraines. Shoulder pain. Mid back and lower back pain. And some huge gains in mobility across the board.
When you cannot move, it just plain sucks. There is no better way to say it.
If you boil chiropractic down to its simplest form, it is this: getting stuck joints moving again and helping over aggravated brains relax enough to hold onto a calm body so healing can actually happen. Movement improves. Tension drops. Patterns change. The body does what it was designed to do.
I have two 30 minute follow ups available Wednesday in Dixfield and a few spots open in Farmington Thursday afternoon. If you have been meaning to get in, act fast and grab one before they are gone.

Have you been meaning to get back in?
Every week I see it happen.
Someone who has not been in for a while comes back in and says, “I should have done this sooner.”
Not because something catastrophic happened. Not because they waited until they could barely move. But because life got busy. Work picked up. Kids had sports. Schedules shifted. And their body slowly adapted to stress again.
Here is what I know after years in practice.
Your body does not forget how to heal.
Your nervous system does not forget the patterns we worked to change.
It just needs the right input again.
If you have been under care before, you already understand what an adjustment really is. It is not just a snap or a crack. It is a reset. A pattern interrupt. A signal to your brain that something can move differently.
If you have noticed old tension creeping back into your neck, shoulders, low back, hips, knees, or even headaches returning, that is not failure. That is feedback.
If you have been thinking, “I should probably get back in,” this is your nudge.
You can book online anytime through my website. If you are not sure what type of appointment you need, just reach out and we will get you scheduled appropriately.
I love helping this community, and I would be honored to help you again.

Posting for last week! Another full two days last week in Dixfield, and it felt like a head, shoulders, knees, and toes kind of week. It seemed like I was able to help someone with just about every joint in the body, from necks and shoulders all the way down to hips, knees, and feet.
The mornings started early as usual, with my first visit at 6:30 am. The first seven people I saw Monday were all in for wellness care. I want to be clear that I do not make a blanket recommendation for everyone to continue care once their main issue has resolved. That said, around 75% of the patients I work with choose on their own to continue care every 3 to 5 weeks. That choice is about committing to feeling good and keeping their nervous system functioning well.
If you only think of an adjustment as a snap or a crack, it can be hard to understand why someone would choose more regular care. When you understand an adjustment as a powerful pattern interrupt for the brain and nervous system, it starts to make a lot more sense why people value it even when pain is no longer the driver.
Wednesday in Dixfield was completely full. Over the two days I worked out of SmartCare, I was able to see just under 40 people. I truly love helping this community and being able to show up in this way week after week.
And just as a small side note, even if it is not me you are recommending, we are fortunate to have some excellent chiropractors in our area who are all doing great work for their patients.
