About

These are Dr. Graybar’s comments on his chiropractic graduate work: “My chiropractic education in Los Angeles was fantastic! It was an amazing experience spending four years of my life in L.A. but I am glad to be back on the East Coast. I always get asked about my education and the truth is the chiropractic curriculum is almost a mirror image to a Medical University during the first two years of schooling. The major difference occurs in the third year when the focus shifts to “chiropractic holistic philosophy and spinal manipulation” instead of pharmaceuticals-drug therapy. This was the favorite part of my entire education. I got to understand the cause and effect of “health and wellness” rather than to numbing or masking the symptoms with medications. L.A.C.C. prepared me to be the “complete doctor” and this is the concept I try to bring into the clinical setting everyday.

And now onto his current personal life: Dr. Graybar and his wife, Tracey, a nurse, have been happily married for 21 years and have 7 wonderful children, Tyler, Sarah, Kenny, Ryan, Madison, Jack and Christian James. Tracey is a California native, born and raised in Orange County. They met on a blind-date during his chiropractic studies and, within 16 months from that first meeting, were married and had moved their lives to North Carolina. Their family maintains an extremely active lifestyle with an emphasis on time spent with sports and the outdoors. The girls enjoy dance and cheerleading while the boys maintain an active soccer and basketball lifestyle. Sorry Carolina fans, this is a DUKE basketball family. Additionally, Dr. Graybar is the head-coach for Wallace-Rose Hill Men’s Varsity Soccer and the Charity Middle School soccer programs. He is also the director of a club travel soccer team, Wallace United. He enjoys coaching and any given weekend, you will see him on the soccer field coaching dozens of players. He also maintains a five handicap on the golf links and enjoys golfing with his sons when soccer is not in season.

Her heart always told her that Palmer was the place for her to begin again. Palmer College is where the entire profession of Chiropractic began and so to return to her passions birth place was the only place for her to go. On June 17, 2005, she graduated with her Doctor of Chiropractic degree. While attending Palmer she was on the Presidents List and an ambassador of the president’s office by being a campus guide. She had acquired enough credits to finish her education early however she chose to remain on campus and work in a nearby chiropractic office to gain even more experience taking care of patients. By doing so she was offered the unique opportunity to participate in the Clinic Abroad program. This program provided her with chiropractic care experience of travel and providing care to the wonderful people in the most impoverished areas of India. This ten day trip changed her life by showing her just how important chiropractic is to the health and wellbeing of all those around the world.

Since the first day she opened the doors to the clinic, the people of Clinton have opened their arms making her feel at home. “Clinton and Sampson county has taught me the wonder of an extended family”. “Even though mine is miles away, this wonderful community feels like home”.

Outside of her work in the clinic, Dr. Luxeder also volunteers in her church as well as the community. Her passion to help and coach others is deeply rooted in a belief that if I “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” By teaching the foundation of health and wellbeing to all I can empower others to in turn take care of themselves.
