Timmy comes to us from West Richland, WA and is a native to the Pacific Northwest. He received a Bachelor’s Degree from Eastern Washington University in Exercise Science where he found his passion for helping others improve their quality of life. Upon graduation, He moved to Portland, OR to study at the University of Western States. In his time there he received a Doctorate Degree in Chiropractic and earned a second Bachelor’s Degree in Human Biology. After 3 years in Portland, he was ready for some sunshine and moved to the East Valley of Gilbert, Arizona,  in September of 2022. 

Timmy approaches chiropractic care with a focus on improving human movement. He has a strong background in rehabilitative exercises, and uses techniques such as the McKenzie method and dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) to complement hands-on treatments such as spinal & extremity manipulation, dermal traction method (DTM), and instrument assisted soft tissue techniques. 

If he’s not at the clinic you can find him boxing, lifting heavy weights, trying new restaurants, and searching for a corgi to call his own!
