Dr. Ryan is a 1990 graduate of Haverhill High School, in Haverhill, MA. From there he went on to Saint Anselm College for two years before transferring to the University of Massachusetts at Boston. He played for the Men’s Tennis Team while at UMASS pursuing his B.S. in Biology/Pre-Med. He earned his degree in 1995.

Dr. Ryan packed up and moved to Davenport, Iowa, the birthplace of Chiropractic and the home of Palmer College of Chiropractic. While at Palmer, Dr. Ryan was quite active on campus. He was Vice-President of the Pediatric Club. He worked teaching labs in the Academic Radiology Department. He was a member of the Palmer Student-Alumni Foundation and the Student Branch of the International Chiropractic Association. Dr. Ryan was also a member of the Palmer College Mens Hockey Team, a team that made it to the “Elite-8″ at the National Championships in Salt Lake City, Utah, for ACHA Division II.

Dr. Ryan also participated in Palmer’s Clinic Abroad Program, a program that allows student doctors to travel abroad and service underprivileged people. His group treated over 2500 patients on two separate islands in Fiji.

After graduation, Dr. Ryan moved back to his home state, became licensed, and worked as an associate doctor in Boston from 1999 – 2005 in a Gonstead Practice.

In May 2005, he opened Ryan Chiropractic in Lynn, MA where he lives with his lovely wife and their two daughters.

Dr. Ryan’s primary area of clinical interest is treating patients who were injured in motor vehicle crashes. He loves discussing with patients the importance of head restraint geometry and how having good head restraint geometry can mitigate cervical spine injury in rear-impact crashes.  Dr. Ryan has even participated in full-scale, human occupant motor vehicle crash testing.
