Growing up in Newport, Rhode Island, as the son of a funeral director, gave him a unique insight into the frailty of life. He realized at an early age that life is precious and needs to be nurtured and cherished. After serving, he also saw countless injuries and accidents which further cemented the knowledge that "life turns on a dime".
After attending the US Army Academy of Health sciences he served as a PT specialist. After his active duty service he returned to RI and worked in-home care physical therapy. Working with stroke and chronic pain patients gave him the drive to seek a career where he could help people prevent chronic pain and injury.

We are to the musculoskeletal system what dentists are to teeth. Back, neck, and joint pain; sciatica; arthritis; and sports injuries are some of the common issues that chiropractic treats, but it goes way beyond that. At Integrative Chiropractic, we use chiropractic care to achieve whole-body wellness.
Dr. Hayes' mantra of "Better, Faster, Stronger, Younger, Leaner" is how he believes we must all actively pursue our lives. We cannot stop the years from passing us by, but we don't have to get old. 15 years ago, Dr. Hayes realized that people could not be truly healthy until all aspects of their lives were assessed and addressed.
You've seen professional athletes with brightly-colored tape crisscrossing parts of their bodies. This isn't just flair or showmanship! Kinesiology taping helps increase blood flow and oxygen, and aids lymph drainage. The result is a reduction in the amount of lactic acid that builds up in muscles, helping the affected areas heal more quickly.
You can't let your back pain slow you down. But if you've been dealing with pain for a while, you might be relying on medications to control your pain, which is never a good long term solution. Or you might be considering surgery, which requires a long recovery period. Instead, ask Dr. Hayes if spinal decompression therapy is a good alternative for you.

I am a huge fan of Dr. Hayes! He has treated me for years and I continue to recommend him to friends and family for care. I am a rock climber and have regular issues with my shoulders. I have been able to continue climbing and heal from injuries much faster with regular vists for Graston and adjustments.
Each person that I have referred has raved about the care they have received! My wife, who has lived with chronic pain from various instense activities (riding hyorses, long distance running, long hours on her feet at a stressful job) is now living without daily pain. We both feel better overall

Dr. Hayes is amazing. He is the only reason that my husband has been able to continue working as a mechanic. After being told by multiple worker's comp doctors that he would never work on cars again and needed to make a career change, Dr. Hayes was able to make it so my husband could resume his work as a mechanic. I've struggled with hand/wrist pain as well as back pain since I was a teenager and Dr. Hayes has been able to make it so that I don't need a wrist brace to do my job anymore and can enjoy the activities that I love doing. My son recently began complaining of neck pain and we brought
