About West Linn
West Linn is a Clackamas County city of 27,373 people (2020 census), set between the Willamette and Tualatin rivers and directly across the Willamette from Oregon City. It incorporated in 1913 and is named for Senator Lewis F. Linn. Oregon Route 43 runs through town, and the city’s history is tied to the river: the Willamette Falls locks were completed in 1873, and the T. W. Sullivan hydroelectric plant began drawing power from the falls in 1889.
West Linn neighborhoods include Cedaroak, Hidden Springs and Marylhurst, and the city is home to West Linn High School. It is a community where people tend to stay active, which is part of why we see so many West Linn families.
Life in West Linn and what your body feels
Residents have plenty of reasons to be on their feet. Mary S. Young State Recreation Area lies between Oregon Route 43 and the Willamette River and offers an off-leash dog area, soccer fields and several miles of trails. The Nature Conservancy maintains the 26-acre Camassia Natural Area in the middle of town.
Walks with the dog, weekend soccer, gardening and yard work are common sources of the aches we hear about. If a sore back, stiff neck or nagging joint is keeping you off the trail, Dr. Devine can examine you, explain what he finds, and build a plan around the activities you want to return to.
Chiropractic care for West Linn patients
Here are some of the conditions Form & Function Chiropractic sees most often from West Linn patients. Care is always based on an exam, and Dr. Devine will tell you if another type of provider would serve you better.
- Neck pain: Stiff, sore necks often come from desk work, driving or sleeping awkwardly. We look for the joints and muscles involved and build a plan to restore comfortable motion.
- Low back pain: Back pain is one of the most common reasons people call us. Dr. Devine looks at the spine, hips and the way you move, then combines adjustments with guidance on posture and activity.
- Sciatica: Pain, tingling or numbness that travels from the low back or hip down the leg can have several causes. An exam helps us understand what is driving it before we recommend care.
- Headaches and migraines: Some headaches begin in the neck and upper back. We check for those contributors and talk through daily habits that may help. Sudden, severe or unusual headaches need urgent medical attention.
- Shoulder pain: Shoulder trouble can start in the neck, upper back or the joint itself. We assess the whole chain so care addresses the source, not just the sore spot.
We also provide car accident care, sports injury care, prenatal care, pediatric care and wellness care. See all services and conditions.
What your first visit looks like
Your first visit with Dr. Devine starts with a conversation about your health history, what brought you in, and what you want to get back to doing. He then performs an exam, explains what he finds in plain language, and recommends a care plan. X-rays are taken in the office only when they are clinically warranted. Adjustments can be done with several techniques, including Diversified, Activator, Drop Table, Torque Release and SOT, so you can choose a gentler approach if you prefer.
Dr. Devine has practiced for more than 25 years and trained at Palmer West Chiropractic College. Co-owner Jodi Black is a nutrition coach, and the clinic also offers Erchonia laser therapy and rehab and physiotherapy options for patients who need extra support.
