Catherine Maddox, DC, DACNB, CBIS

Dr. Cat Maddox graduated Summa cum Laude from the University of Western States, where she was honored to be class speaker at graduation. She was presented with the Dean’s Scholarship in her first year based on her high academic achievements. While earning her Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine, she also began her post-doctoral studies in functional neurology (DACNB) both via The Carrick Institute and the International Association of Functional Neurology and Rehabilitation. Most recently she has become nationally recognized as a Certified Brain Injury Specialist (CBIS).

Dr. Cat’s passion stems from her time as a rehabilitation coordinator in a chiropractic neurology clinic. It was here that she witnessed a need for more functional neurology practitioners to work with complicated cases such as post-concussion syndrome, unremitting vertigo, chronic headaches and mild-moderate cognitive decline.

Dr. Cat is also a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) who spent 10 years working as a personal trainer and Pilates instructor. She started her own successful company, Organic Health and Fitness, in New York City helping private clients increase mobility and minimize pain. When she moved out to Oregon, she was hired by OHSU who asked her to develop a class. Pulling from her background as a trainer and Pilates instructor, she designed SPF (Strength, Power and Flexibility), which was taught for years to follow. In her spare time Dr. Cat loves to kayak and hike with her husband, enjoy the Oregon coast, raise backyard chickens, cultivate her edible garden and cook gluten-free meals.

From your first assessment, Dr. Cat demonstrates her intense passion and dedication for your whole body health. She will not shy away from difficult cases and uses all therapy’s available for treatments.

Dr. Maddox gave me my life back! I walked into her office with tremendous, non-stop pain in my head from a concussion and by the next day felt relief that I hadn't felt since the accident. My recovery has continued to be steady. She was very professional, knowledgeable, responsive and compassionate. I left my appointments feeling empowered to take my recovery into my own hands and stop being so passive about it.
Debbie Schuster
My time and experience with Dr. Cat Maddox was some of the most attentive and caring medical care I have ever received. Every visit was met with the same energy and determination to help heal. I learned so much about my own brain and the opportunity to not just heal but really grow with the tools and advice she provided. This encouragement is genuine and passionate and it is clear that Dr. Maddox is truly a master of her work.

Dr. Maddox is an extremely warm, passionate, smart and empathetic provider. She won't shy away from a tough case with difficult symptoms and works incredibly hard to help provide her patients with relief. I feel very fortunate to have her on my team.
Vanessa Schuster
I sustained a traumatic brain injury in 2013 and have been severely symptomatic ever since. I have been through more doctors than I would like to admit but never really received any relief until I met Dr. Maddox. She was patient, thorough, approachable, and extremely knowledgeable. She has gotten me back to the most normal I have felt in 6 years.
Brandy Estoos
Dr. Maddox has been a godsend for both me and my 12yo son. She has helped us both with migraines and vertigo, as well as neck and back pain. She is very thorough and really cares. Highly recommend her!

Dr. Maddox's methods have seriously changed my approach to chronic pain and brought me pain-free days for the first time in years - YEARS! - and the lifestyle recommendations and referrals she's provided me continue to provide me with healing and symptom relief.
Michelle Rogers
Under her care, I saw steady improvement, even amongst the ups and downs of my recovery. She was always a positive, encouraging supporter, for which I am deeply grateful. She's also the first chiropractor I've been able to relax with and her adjustments are on point and effective. I highly recommend Dr. Maddox for both chiropractic work, as well as neurology/post-concussion treatment. She's the best!
Amanda Rain
Dr. Maddox has helped me tremendously with healing from my concussions. She takes the time to figure out what is going to help you the best and the fastest to get you back to your normal life!
Kristy Arneson
I suffer from Meniere's (causes severe vertigo, loss of balance and hearing and incapacitating episodes of vomiting) and was referred to Dr. Maddox as a neurologic chiropractor. Her care resulted in significant improvement in my balance and gait granting me continued participation in activities I love. I highly recommend her.
