Low Force Adjustment
Our low-force adjustments use hands-on techniques like DNFT and SOT to correct spinal subluxations without twisting or cracking. These methods safely improve nervous system function for patients seeking pain relief without traditional manipulation. Treatment addresses both localized discomfort and systemic patterns affecting overall health.
Corrective Care
This five-phase program addresses underlying spinal misalignments through progressive care stages from initial pain relief to wellness maintenance. Each personalized plan targets root causes of discomfort rather than temporary symptom management, requiring consistent treatment over 3-6 months for optimal results.
Wellness Care
Ongoing wellness programs provide regular adjustments to maintain spinal health after completing corrective care. Available through affordable monthly memberships, this preventive approach helps sustain nervous system function and prevent recurrence of structural issues through scheduled maintenance visits.
Prenatal Chiropractic
Specialized prenatal adjustments using the Webster Technique improve pelvic function and reduce discomfort during pregnancy. This safe, non-invasive care helps prepare the body for labor while addressing common pregnancy-related issues like back pain and sciatica through gentle, targeted treatments.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic care for children addresses developmental spinal issues and supports nervous system health. Our pediatric specialist uses low-force techniques to help with common childhood concerns while ensuring safe, comfortable treatment experiences for young patients.

Tim helped me tremendously when I was pregnant and could not even walk from the car to the grocery store doors due to pain. I was immediately able to walk and have been going for years!

Came here due to messing up my back - and low and behold we found over 30 years worth of issues! Dr. Tim is great to work with, very accommodating, professional and he knows his stuff. My back is feeling much better and I look forward to monthly visits when I shift into maintenance mode!

Dr. Tim provided outstanding service and got my hips and back realigned. Over the course of a few weeks I went from have substantial lower back pain to being pain free. This is after having pain in my lower back for over month. What was the issue? Displaced and uneven hips that I didn't know I had an issue with. His method of readjustment is not jerky or harsh, almost feels like a massage. It is gental and specific. I would highly recommend Knigh Chiropractic!

Dr. Tim Knight has been my chiropractor since 1985. Any time I have lived in the Boston area, or passed through, I have had the pleasure of being under his care. While I began long ago for a small complaint that resolved nicely, I returned after a more serious injury. Healing from that injury, I found Dr. Tim's adjustments worked better for me than any other care I received. Under his care, I came to understand the larger picture of how chiropractic can support the body's own innate intelligence and allow it to run much more optimally.
While my aches, pains, and injuries were guided to good healing, I was astounded that my asthma and chronic bronchitis became a thing of the past. I went from taking antibiotics many times a year to taking them four times in the last 26 years. What an amazing increase in quality of life! It was so amazing, off I went to chiropractic school, and I've been in practice 14 years now. I'm grateful to Dr. Tim not just for the chiropractic care he has lovingly provided for me and now for my son, but for helping me discover such an amazing lifestyle and professional calling. He is the quintessential chiropractor's chiropractor.
