Dr. Tim’s philosophy and treatment rationale is based on the body moving as a whole. Certain joints in the body are meant to be mobile, while others are meant to be stable. In his opinion, most injuries, pain, and limitations come from a disruption in this philosophy.

Dr. Tim is dedicated to providing a comfortable and professional environment with the ultimate goal of helping each patient reach their optimal performance and improving their quality of life. He is certified in various techniques that emphasize functional movement and proper joint mobility.

Dr. Tim’s interest in chiropractic care and functional movement began after he sustained a serious back injury playing college football. He has experienced first hand how injuries and pain can decrease your quality of life. Therefore, he has dedicated himself to providing the most innovative chiropractic, rehabilitative, and movement therapies that result in delivering the highest quality care for his patients.

Dr. Tim’s first job after graduating was with Test football Academy, where he helped collegiate athletes train for the NFL combine. He then moved to Boulder, Colorado, where he spent the past four years working with an array of patients varying from Olympic athletes to office professionals, pregnant women, and everyone in between.

Dr. Tim and his wife Katie just recently relocated to Massachuesetts with their son Zane and two dogs Maverick and Otto. When Dr. Tim is not helping his patients, he enjoys spending time outside hiking, camping, snowboarding, golfing and exercising.
