My name is Dr. Marga
Dr. Marga is from Ormond Beach, Florida. Although she loves the Sunshine State, she made a big move to Maine two years ago and has since grown to love the beauty of the New England seasons.
She attended the University of Central Florida, where she earned her Bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences. While in school, she worked at a chiropractic office for a year and quickly realized that chiropractic care was her true calling. Inspired by her passion for wellness, Dr. Marga loves that chiropractic allows her to help people heal naturally, something that continues to bring her fulfillment and pride.
She went on to attend Palmer College of Chiropractic – Florida Campus, where she actively participated in both on- and off-campus activities. She served as President of the Upper Cervical Club for two years and earned her Grostic Technique Certification. Upon graduation, she received the prestigious Virgil Strang Philosophy Award.
