Drawing from a background in martial arts and gymnastics, Dr. Jacob Gries, DC creates space for his patients to craft movement in their bodies with confidence. He dedicates the bulk of his approach to care as a guide by the side and a companion for the many layers of the wellness journey.

As a graduate from Parker University, Dr. Gries earned a BS in Anatomy and a Doctorate of Chiropractic. While in school he employed his professional training as a yoga teacher to inform his basic understanding of movement that he now also uses in practice alongside other techniques such as myofascial release and somatics. His unique approach to chiropractic care allows him to weave through various paradigms to customize each patient’s experience.

Dr. Gries has a long-time desire and passion for individual growth and transformation - evidenced in his attention to his patients’ input rather than a one-size-fits-all model of care. He likes to think of himself as a life-long learner and a student of all.

Before coming to Alpha Life, Dr. Gries was a student of Dr. McCabe’s who quickly found solace in his professor’s clinical acumen and no-frills, grounded approach to care. His mentorship anchored Jacob as a budding clinician throughout his educational career and continues to do so as a professional partner. Their shared values demonstrate a natural union of balanced approaches - singularly focused on transforming their community.
