The clinic has served the community since 2009 and maintains a 5.00 rating based on 251 reviews.

Founder Dr. Patrick Doody established the practice in 2009 after a severe disc injury during his undergraduate years made surgery unnecessary, an experience that shaped his career. He earned his B.S. in Biology from SUNY Geneseo and his Doctor of Chiropractic from New York Chiropractic College. The clinic employs a whole-person approach, looking for underlying causes in movement patterns and posture rather than treating symptoms in isolation. The team includes Dr. Bradshaw, a Board Certified Athletic Trainer with a Doctorate from Northeast College of Health Sciences, and Dr. Lee, a former NCAA hockey player. Providers use individualized treatment plans combining manual techniques with therapeutic exercise.

Stretch therapy is led by Alyson Hope, who holds a Master’s and Doctorate in Physician Assistant Studies and Medical Science, along with 500-hour yoga teacher training. She offers trauma-sensitive, healthcare-informed sessions that may include hands-on assisted stretching, prop-based work, or guided non-hands-on stretching. These sessions are available on Wednesdays and Fridays and can be booked alongside chiropractic care or independently, with no referral or insurance required. The clinic accepts most major insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Harvard Pilgrim, Tufts, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, and Medicare, as well as MIT and Harvard University student health plans, and verifies benefits before the first visit.

The business holds a strong local reputation, reflected in consistently high customer ratings and an established track record built on a large base of customer reviews. Patients value the transparent communication, where providers explain findings and recommendations clearly, and the availability of online booking. The practice treats a diverse range of conditions, from acute injuries and chronic pain to postural strain and sports performance issues.
