Cascade Health Center is Eugene's Auto Injury Experts™ — a multidisciplinary team helping you heal faster, without drugs or surgery.
Cascade Health Center is a multidisciplinary team of chiropractors, massage therapists, and acupuncturists serving Springfield, Eugene, and the surrounding Willamette Valley. Led by Dr. Garreth MacDonald, our team has earned the trademarked reputation as Eugene’s Auto Injury Experts™, helping patients recover from car accidents and chronic pain alike — without relying on drugs or surgery.
After a car accident, symptoms like whiplash, neck pain, headaches, and reduced range of motion can appear within days — or even weeks. The sooner you’re treated, the better your recovery. At our Springfield clinic, easily reached from Eugene, Veneta, Junction City, Coburg, Cottage Grove, and the rest of Lane County, our team diagnoses and treats car accident injuries using chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, massage therapy, and physical rehabilitation — and we help you navigate the insurance claims process so you can focus on healing.
Our team of chiropractors, acupuncturists, massage therapists, and physical therapists works together to build a personalized recovery plan for you — all in one Springfield location.
Specialized treatment for whiplash, neck pain, and accident-related injuries. We work directly with your auto insurance.

Chiropractic, massage, acupuncture, and physical therapy all in one clinic for fully coordinated care.
— your chiropractor, massage therapist, and acupuncturist coordinate directly instead of working in silos across town.
— imaging is available on-site, so there's no waiting on films sent out to a third-party lab.
We understand the auto claims process and help you navigate it so treatment is as stress-free as possible.

Dr. MacDonald earned a BSc in Kinesiology from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada in 1992. Before chiropractic school, he worked in a chiropractic rehab office and as a kinesiologist alongside a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, physician, and caseworker, and even started his own hydrotherapy company. He graduated from Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, Missouri in 1999, earning honors for Outstanding Clinical and Academic Achievement, and moved to Eugene to open his practice within the year.
For over a decade, Dr. MacDonald volunteered as Head Athletic Trainer for the Eugene Generals Junior A Hockey Club. He’s an avid hockey and golf player, married with five children, and has called Eugene home for over two decades.
What do falling asleep on the couch, getting stuck in traffic, picking up a child, putting away laundry, and lifting something improperly have in common?
These are just a few examples of the numerous ways spinal dysfunction can occur. The problem may begin in a joint along the spine, but can affect other parts of the body by interfering with the nerves branching off from the spinal cord. These nerves are important messengers between the brain and the rest of the body, so if they are disturbed by a joint that is out of place, for example, the result can be discomfort not only locally in the neck or back, but also in the part of the body where the affected nerve travels.
At Cascade Health Center, owner Dr. Garreth MacDonald focuses his chiropractic adjustments on normalizing joint mechanics so that the spine and nervous system as a whole can function without interference. While he prides himself on being “Eugene’s Auto Injury Expert,”™ Dr. MacDonald enjoys treating a variety of health issues. His toolkit for optimizing wellness expands far beyond the chiropractic field, however, as Cascade Health Center is a multidisciplinary clinic with a range of modalities including physical therapy (rehabilitation), massage therapy, and acupuncture.
