What Dr. Chris loves most about chiropractic is its ability to change lives. It allows the body to heal itself by removing any nervous system interference, thereby improving the quality of life for that person. He loves being able to provide that for people.

As a high school and college athlete, chiropractic kept Dr. Chris on the field, and he chose to do the same for others. A caring practitioner, he believes everyone needs chiropractic. Our patients know they are in the right place to heal!
