ABOUT ME
Dr. Ryan Baker was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. From a young age, he always valued and enjoyed health and exercise which led him down the path to receiving his bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from UMASS Amherst. During this time, Dr. Baker began to discover his passion for healthcare. In 2015, a traumatic spinal cord injury suffered by his identical triplet brother fueled his drive to learn even more about the function of the human body. Having also had numerous sport-related injuries as a young adult that were corrected with chiropractic care, Dr. Baker decided to continue his education and go on to receive his doctorate from Palmer College of Chiropractic.
In chiropractic college, Dr. Baker expanded his skill set in a variety of adjustment techniques, manual therapy approaches, physical rehabilitation, and injury prevention. Dr. Baker spent time as a spinal rehabilitation technician at the Palmer College of Chiropractic Clinics where he also became certified in Selective Functional Movement Assessments (SFMA). Through this knowledge and his passion for staying active in the gym, Dr. Baker discovered how critical and important healthy movement and spinal postures are to the body and our overall sustained health and well-being. The body is an adaptive organism and will conform to the environments we put it in. Therefore, health is not just a state of being, but rather a habit that we practice on a daily basis.
Upon graduation, Dr. Baker moved to Charleston, South Carolina where he was a clinic director and treated a variety of patients with many different musculoskeletal conditions before moving back to Florida where he joined practice with County Line Chiropractic.
Dr. Baker loves to educate others about health and wellness and provide the tools for anyone to be able to learn how to take back control of their health and body through movement as medicine.
In Dr. Baker’s free time he enjoys working out, walking on the beach, traveling, cooking, and spending quality time with his son.
