Dr. Ryan McWhorter

Dr. Ryan McWhorter is on a mission to solve the toughest health challenges with real solutions beyond symptom management. With over 25 years of experience, he combines ancient healing wisdom with cutting-edge technology to help patients reclaim their health and well-being. His holistic approach provides a path to freedom from chronic pain, fatigue, and deeper issues that are often overlooked by traditional medicine.

Dr. McWhorter works with a wide range of health concerns, including chronic illness, low energy, hormone imbalances, gut health, and heart health. However, his true passion lies in helping women overcome some of the most complex pelvic health conditions, like vulvodynia, severe period pain, infertility, urinary incontinence, and sexual pain. His philosophy is that no woman should have to accept these issues as a “normal” part of life or aging. Around the clinic, you’ll often hear him say, "Pain is not normal at any age or stage." He is dedicated to uncovering the root causes of these problems and providing personalized care that restores function, confidence, and pleasure.

Dr. McWhorter’s career took a pivotal turn following the loss of a father figure to heart disease. This personal experience fueled his commitment to finding better ways to predict, prevent, and treat serious health issues. After graduating with honors from Auburn University at Montgomery and receiving his medical degree from the University of Alabama-Birmingham School of Medicine, he quickly realized that conventional healthcare often fell short in providing long-term healing. His search for more effective treatments led him to functional medicine, where he blends advanced therapies with natural healing techniques to offer a comprehensive approach to care.

At his clinic in Montgomery, Alabama, Dr. McWhorter developed the Saluxis Method, a system that focuses on addressing health problems at their root cause rather than simply masking symptoms. This process involves four key elements: releasing toxins, replenishing nutrients, resetting the immune and nervous systems, and rewiring the brain-body connection. This holistic method has empowered countless men and women to restore their health, energy, and vitality.

Dr. McWhorter’s practice stands as a beacon of hope for patients who feel like they’ve exhausted all other options. His deep commitment to guiding patients toward better health proves that it’s never too late to heal, thrive, and live the vibrant life you desire.

Alternative Studies, Conferences & Certifications:

Dr. McWhorter also pursues additional education in alternative studies as taught by leading M.D.'s, because he is searching for the best healthcare has to offer, and he knows the way we've always done it does not always provide optimal care for the patient. In medical school, he was told advances in medicine would overshadow many of the things he was then being taught, and he would always need to keep up with new and better ways to treat his patients.

With this in mind, Dr. McWhorter seeks to learn all he can about new and emerging treatments by attending training sessions and conferences across the country.
