About Marylhurst
Marylhurst is an unincorporated community in Clackamas County, in southern Lake Oswego about eight miles south of Portland and near the Willamette River. It is commonly known as part of Lake Oswego, where it is officially part of the Glenmorrie neighborhood. Oregon Route 43 runs through the area.
The community is best known for the former Marylhurst University campus, which closed in 2018. West Linn also counts Marylhurst among its annexed neighborhoods, so many households here have ties to both cities.
Life in Marylhurst and what your body feels
Marylhurst sits along a busy part of Oregon Route 43, which means a lot of commuting, errands and time behind the wheel. Many residents also walk, garden and spend time outdoors near the river.
If you have never seen a chiropractor, that is fine. We explain each step, and Dr. Devine uses several techniques so care can be gentle or more traditional depending on your comfort. Your first visit starts with a conversation about your history and an exam, then a plan.
Chiropractic care for Marylhurst patients
Here are some of the conditions Form & Function Chiropractic sees most often from Marylhurst patients. Care is always based on an exam, and Dr. Devine will tell you if another type of provider would serve you better.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
