Meet Dr. Shelita McGowan 💙

Behind every healing touch at McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center is a story rooted in purpose, partnership, and community.

Dr. Shelita McGowan, DC, co-founded the practice alongside her husband, Dr. Royce McGowan, with a shared mission: help Jacksonville families move better, feel better, and live pain-free without drugs or surgery.

Originally from New Orleans and a proud graduate of Grambling State University, Dr. Shelita continued her path into chiropractic medicine at Life University in Atlanta, where she met Royce. After earning their degrees, the two brought their vision to Jacksonville and built what is now McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center, a trusted destination for rehabilitation, physical therapy, and whole-body chiropractic care.

Dr. Shelita is known for her compassionate approach and dedication to teaching patients how to care for their bodies beyond the treatment room. From back and neck pain to headaches and everyday strain, her focus is always the same: relieve the cause, restore function, and empower healthier living.

📱 Text neck is real, and your neck feels every minute of screen time.

That constant forward-head posture? It strains muscles, triggers tension headaches, and can even contribute to disc issues over time. Not exactly the kind of tech upgrade you want. 😬

At McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center, Dr. Royce McGowan and our team work to correct posture, relieve tension, and restore proper alignment, so your neck stops paying the price for your screen habits.

Less strain. Better posture. Real relief.

Don’t let tech neck become your normal, come get adjusted and feel the difference.

📸 👢 Boots On The Ground, Wellness In Motion! 🕺💥

Flashing back to the day the McGowan crew swapped adjustments for a little line dance action. Yes, we really did that. And yes, we stayed on beat. Mostly. 😎

At McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center, we believe movement is medicine. Whether it’s on the adjustment table or on the dance floor, keeping your body moving is always a win. 💙

A strong spine, good energy, and a quick dance break? That’s the kind of balance we like around here.

When’s the last time you took five minutes to move just for fun?

🛌 The real bedtime bandit behind your back pain might not be your mattress... It might be the way you sleep! 😱

At McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center, we see folks blaming everything under the sun: their pillow, their job, their ex... but never their sleep position. So let’s break the cycle.

Here is the winning combo:

✅ Back sleeping with a pillow under your knees keeps your spine calm, cool, and collected.
🌀 Pro move: Roll up a small towel and tuck it under your neck, not your head, to support your natural curve.

Make these tiny tweaks tonight and your spine might actually thank you in the morning. 😴💤

Still waking up feeling like you wrestled a bear? Swing by, we will straighten things out!

Meet Nurse Hunt, a dedicated Advanced Practice Registered Nurse who brings both clinical expertise and heart to patient care at McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center.

She began her journey at Florida A&M University, earning her undergraduate degree in healthcare management as a proud HBCU graduate 🐍. While working closely with patient relations and outcomes, she discovered her passion for hands on care and decided to pursue nursing.

She completed her nursing education at Florida State College at Jacksonville, then earned her Master of Science in Nursing from South University, where she also completed advanced clinical training.

Today, she is certified as an APRN with a Family Practice background, allowing her to treat patients at every stage of life.

At McGowan Spinal, her focus includes orthopedic and spinal injuries, pain management, medical weight loss, and preventive care, always with an emphasis on long term wellness.

Her approach to care is rooted in a holistic philosophy. She believes in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms, and supporting the body’s natural ability to heal through chiropractic and rehabilitation medicine.

What she values most is seeing patients progress. Improved mobility, better pain control, and greater confidence in their recovery. She also prioritizes education, trust, and being part of a collaborative team that truly cares about outcomes.

Outside the office, she stays active as a step aerobics instructor and enjoys strength training and quality time with her family, helping her stay balanced and energized.

Knowledgeable. Compassionate. Committed to results.

Jacksonville, you’re in excellent hands!

This month we celebrate Black History Month and honor a century of recognizing the achievements, resilience, and profound impact of Black individuals across every field of life. What began in 1926 as a week of remembrance has grown into a powerful, 100-year tradition of uplifting stories that have too often been left out of textbooks and conversations. (forbes.com)

At McGowan Spinal Rehabilitation Center we know healing isn’t just physical; it’s rooted in community, strength, and the power of being seen. This month we celebrate the leaders, innovators, caregivers, artists, and everyday heroes whose courage teaches us that progress is built by those brave enough to shape it.

Here’s to honoring the legacy of the past while lifting up every life we have the privilege to serve today. ✊🏾
