I cannot recommend this team highly enough ! Other chiropractors have viewed me as a never ending project (and source of income!)
The staff at designed to move actively tries to work themselves out of a job. Not only do they efficiently treat issues that arise but they also I have taught me how to care for my body as well!
This has reduced visits and enhanced my quality of life significantly!

Earlier this year I woke up & couldn’t move my neck. I knew right away Abbi & Aaron were who I needed to call. Aaron was able to help give me exercises to work on at home and I was able to see rapid improvement in mobility. As a practicing dentist, I needed to get back to work quickly and he was able to help me get back to full range of motion. The knowledge & education provided was amazing, I admit I was a little nervous at first- but everyone is welcoming and friendly. Would recommend Designed 2 Move to anyone looking to feel their best!

I have struggled with neck and lower back issues most of my adult life. Being very active in weightlifting, it is important to me to live as painful as possible, while maintaining extreme flexibility. Drs. Abi and Aaron are both exceptional at keeping my spine in line. Dr. Aaron helped guide me through rotator cuff repair and a torn epicondyle tendon. Their holistic approach, education, and the MacKenzie methods are top notch in my eyes. 5+ stars for sure!

Most chiros spend 5 minutes or less. Here they take the time to listen and do other things besides just cracking my back. It’s kind of like chiro, massage and physical therapy rolled into one. Most of my visits are 20 minutes. I like how they give specific exercises I can do throughout the week to reduce pain or strengthen certain areas that are causing problems. Another bonus: they don’t try to pressure you into signing a contract or paying thousands of dollars in advance like a lot of chiros do nowadays. It’s very individualized, session to session.

This is an easy 5-star review for me! I’ve been seeing Brady for about 2 months and he has done a great job keeping me at my best. I’m an avid runner and he has helped me in multiple recovery efforts after races and has taught me how to help keep myself loose. Additionally, he has helped me with some shoulder pain I’d been dealing with from work around the house.
Brady is very easy to talk to and he goes out of his way to know you as person, rather than just treat you as another patient. The rest of the staff is also wonderful, and the facility is top notch! I would highly recommend seeing

5 stars may seem like an exaggeration but seriously this place is great! I worked with Abbi, had some reoccurring issues with my back that made me scared to workout the way I like to. Not only did they help me feel better, they ENABLED me to continue to bulletproof my body by giving me exercises.
AND when I was able to resume exercise pain-free they gave me the option to discontinue my sessions right away, which is a big help as I'm currently a college student.
This is a seriously quality establishment, it has my full recommendation!
