About Us

Now (after years of school and exams and even more exams) I spend my days helping people change theirs.

Chiropractic energy medicine changed my life.

i was where you are now.

Dr. Meggie Smith first learned the power of chiropractic energy medicine when she was struggling with her mental and physical health while she in her early 20s. Neither medical doctors nor psychotherapists could help her. She found relief only with an energy medicine chiropractor who understood how her emotional distress was an expression of physical imbalances. She has continued to use chiropractic energy medicine to feel more grounded, hopeful, trusting and at peace.

Dr. Meggie Smith

She is Webster certified in perinatal chiropractic and has studied energetic chiropractic techniques including Bio Geometric Integration (BGI), Network Spinal Analysis (NSA), NeuroEmotional Technique (NET) and Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique (BEST). She has a bachelor's degree in philosophy from The University of Chicago. That degree has allowed her to think critically about finding the truth in healing modalities and parsing the nuance of medical research. She has a doctorate of chiropractic from Life Chiropractic College West in the San Francisco Bay Area, a school renowned for its strong BGI focus on and off campus.

She is the President of the Main Dempster Mile, the former Philanthropy chair of the Woman’s Club of Evanston and was appointed by the Mayor of Evanston to the Citizen Police Complaint Advisory Committee.  She lives in Evanston with her partner Neil and spends her free time attempting to make entertaining videos for her niece and nephews. They still prefer the videos of her cats.


Emma is the front desk and office manager. When not at Cora you will see her painting murals, menu boards and signs for coffee shops and other local businesses.

Meggie has been seeing our 3.5 year old daughter for GI issues and our 1 year old son for sleep and has truly helped both of them. I appreciate her gentle approach, clear communication about what she is noticing, and friendly/nurturing manner with our kids. They both enjoy coming in for their adjustments and we've noticed not only improvements with the presenting concerns, but also lifted moods and increased energy in the days after their sessions.

Cora Health is incredible! I found Dr. Meggie two years ago when I was pregnant and in desperate pain. She garnered such amazing results; after just one session I saw huge improvements. She helped me through a full recovery and my body felt back to normal. Since then, I go to Dr. Meggie for help recovering from any kind of physical trauma and I now, because I am expecting my third child, I see her weekly during pregnancy! Thank you for all that you do to help!

JUSTINE M.

The doctors here are incredible. I have visited them with extreme back pain and gotten total relief. The soft touch and gentle body work truly works wonders. Highly recommend!

JENNY H.

I’ve been working with the chiropractors here for several years and I am so amazed by my body’s ability to heal itself now. I used to get major stiffness in my neck and lose mobility for days at a time, but since coming here it rarely happens and when it does, I’ve been able to breath through it and open it up on my own. I’ve also felt an improvement with my sleep, headaches and anxiety. Go see Meggie and tell her what’s bothering you.

SARAH M.

I have been going to Chiropractic First for many years. All the doctors are wonderful and have helped me in so many ways. In addition to helping with back pain they have helped me avoid foot surgery for a painful foot condition, made my second pregnancy so much easier and less painful than my first and helped with jaw pain from TMJ. Truly Amazing!
