Hi! I’m Dr. Bridget Monaghan, and I’m a wellness-based family chiropractor in Chicago – in Lincoln Park, to be exact. I’ve been practicing chiropractic for over 10 years, and I started Back Home Chiropractic in 2014 to provide more specialized care for families, pregnant women and children.

My approach to chiropractic is built on the philosophy that the body has an innate ability to heal itself. If you’re in pain, your body is communicating that something isn’t right. In our current healthcare system, surgery or medication is often the first thing recommended. However, in many instances, your body is able to heal itself if the spine is properly aligned.  

I also firmly believe in the power of PROACTIVE care – with regular maintenance (just like your car or 401K!), your body can function at its highest level and so much pain and discomfort can be avoided.

Our mission is to empower you with information and options so that you can make better-informed health decisions for yourself and your family. 

I love being a chiropractor, and my work is so rewarding. I started my career as a biology teacher, so I’ve always loved helping people understand how their bodies work. Now, I can further help them live their lives pain-free, have healthy pregnancies and deliveries, and help their children grow and develop in the best possible way. 

When I’m not offering chiropractic care to families in Chicago, you can find me taking my beagle Monti on long walks, running around the city, hiking in a National Park, or giving tours at Lincoln Park Conservatory.
