Dr. Justin Terry’s approach to chiropractic is about freedom of movement.

He then obtained his Doctorate of Chiropractic at Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, Minnesota.

Originally from Ripley, Mississippi, Dr. Justin is excited to be in Colorado. In his downtime, he enjoys sprint training, weight lifting, and hiking. Chiropractic has been revolutionary in his own life in fact that while in chiropractic school he discovered that he has scoliosis. In practice, this allows him to connect with, and empower patients. Dr. Justin uses a variety of techniques to adjust, they are Diversified, Thompson Drop, Activator, and Torque Release Techniques.
