Dr. Cory was raised in Gilbert, Arizona where he played competitive sports such as football, baseball and wrestling. He knew early on that he wanted to help people and was introduced to chiropractic care at a young age for headaches and low back pain. Dr. Cory is an advocate for chiropractic care for the entire family, at every stage of life and every background.
His love for athletics lead him to focus on Sports Medicine specialty and work with many high level athletes and learning how to treat their many different possible injuries and returning them back to their sport as quickly as possible.
Throughout his schooling he noticed a gap in care for prenatal, postnatal and pediatric populations which lead him to more training in these specific areas while his wife gave birth to their first two kids before he graduated.
His approach to health care embodies looking at the person as a whole and implementing ways to improve overall quality of life. He thoroughly enjoys educating patients and the community on how to take an active and proactive approach to healthy living.
In his time outside the office he loves to spend as much time possible with his beautiful wife and three amazing children.

In my 7 years of experience as an LMT I have learned not every technique works for every ‘body’. We are all unique which means our massages should be unique as well. That being said, customizing your massage to fit your needs and give you the best healing experience is my top priority. My massage style combines modalities including deep tissue, sports massage, injury massage, Swedish, myofascial release, cupping, and stretching.
