About Us
Our Story
Derived from the translation of the Wampanoag's word, Noepe, Amid the Waters Chiropractic wants to share the blending of chiropractic with the natural elements of the island.
Working primarily with the nervous system, we help alleviate the stress that is placed on our nervous system. When our nervous system is bombarded by daily life, posture, habits of how we sit, stand, and move every day, it can lead to a number of symptoms presenting as headaches, ear infections, neck and shoulder tightness, as well as low back/hip pain, just to name a few.
Living on an island, we are usually no more than a few steps away from the ocean. All of our patients know we in the office love going in the ocean for its healing properties, and we always recommend the same for our patients. Even without going all the way in, taking the time for themselves, connecting with nature, and feeling the ocean up to their ankles, not only is healing because of the ocean nutrients, but brings out our primal, innate ability to heal.

Meet Dr. Bryan
Dr. Bryan McShea
Owner, Doctor of Chiropractic
Dr. Bryan was born in Minnesota and grew up outside of Chicago where he enjoyed swim team, soccer, wrestling, drawing, and writing poetry. In 2005, he graduated from the University of Iowa with a major in Biology. After working and living in Chicago for two years, Dr. Bryan was ready to go back to school and enrolled at Logan College of Chiropractic.
Graduating from Logan in December of 2010, Dr. Bryan took what he learned in school back to his home town in Illinois. There he practiced with his mentor for 3.5 years, ran a multi-disciplinary clinic for the next 1.5 years, before going out on his own for the 12 months of 2016
After visiting friends in New England in Fall of 2016, Dr. Bryan made the move in February of 2017 from the beautiful farm fields of the Midwest to an island off the East Coast where he opened
Amid the Waters Chiropractic in 2018.
When he's not in the office, Dr. Bryan enjoys running, taking in the sounds and energy of the island trails and beaches, and can occasionally be seen OneWheeling around town!
