Our story

A family practice, built on trust.

Active Chiropractic Rehab has called Dorchester home since 1999. Drs. John and Shawna DuPuy — a husband-and-wife team — built this clinic on a simple promise: take the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and never rush a visit.

Patients tell us they leave feeling like family. After 25 years, many of them are. Generations of Boston neighbors have walked through our doors — and we're grateful for every one.

Inside the Active Rehab clinic

Dr. John DuPuy

Chiropractor · Co-founder

Known for his thorough exams and patient, educational approach. Dr. John takes the time to explain the anatomy behind your pain — and the path back to comfort.

Dr. Shawna DuPuy

Chiropractor · Co-founder

Gentle, precise, and warm. Dr. Shawna's adjustments are praised for being effective without ever feeling forceful — patients often say her hands are exactly what they needed.

"From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and professional. Dr. John is genuinely invested in his patients' recovery."
