Meet Dr. Max

Maxwell Muehleip (Mew-LIPE), MS, DC – known affectionately by his patients as Doctor Max – is the founder of Maximal Wellness Clinic, a Chiropractic and nutrition clinic located in Tigard, Oregon.

Dr. Max was born in Chicago, Illinois, and as a child encountered many health challenges. He suffered from constant colds and infections, asthma, and allergies. In middle school, he and his family moved to rural Wisconsin. There he was surrounded by fresh air, plenty of room to run around, and plenty of vegetables from the garden. Max’s allergies and asthma began to subside. He also met a chiropractor, Dr. Kurt Burbach of Dyersville, Iowa, who told him that chiropractors, like Jedis, “use the Force” to help people. This idea embedded itself in Max’s brain, and after seeing a Chiropractor save his cousin from neck surgery and his mother from nerve pain, he knew he wanted to be involved in natural healthcare.

However, in high school, bad habits and temptations fought back, and he developed severe cystic acne and frequent colds and infections. This followed him into college when after his sophomore year, lackluster grades and a sense of waywardness led Max to do some soul-searching. After weeks of focused attention, he was finally able to articulate his life’s mission: teaching people practical ways to live a fuller, healthier life.

The next two years of schooling were difficult, and Max learned the real meaning of hard work. Max graduated from Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota, and was then accepted into the chiropractic program at the University of Western States, located in Portland, Oregon. During chiropractic school, his health improved. His frequent colds and infections subsided, his weight dropped to a healthy level, his blood pressure lowered, and his acne cleared up. This process wasn’t easy; there were many days when he thought about giving up, but his mission motivated him even on his worst days. 



Dr. Max graduated from the University of Western States with his doctorate in chiropractic; then, he graduated a year later with his masters in human nutrition & functional medicine. In 2018, Dr. Max and his wife, Maya, welcomed their son Magnus into the world. This was followed by daughter Maple in 2020, and Maven in 2023. Dr. Max began teaching Applied Nutrition for Life West Chiropractic College in autumn of 2022 and will finished his last teaching quarter in September, 2024.
