Knuckles Chiropractic: A Lifelong Passion

By Kim Beach

Garrett Knuckles was a football player for Little Miami High School until he was sidelined with a broken jaw when he was 16. This injury led him to the current career that he loves as a chiropractor. Six months after he was injured, he met a chiropractor who took the time to learn about Garrett’s injuries and eventually diagnosed him with a fractured back.

resume normal activities, but his football career was over. But he wasn’t worried because he knew what he wanted to do with his life…he wanted to be a chiropractor and help people the way he had been helped.

After graduating from Ohio University in 2009, Garrett entered Life University, a leading chiropractic school in Marietta, Ga. After graduating, Garrett returned to Cincinnati in 2013 and began working with Baker Chiropractic on Red Bank Road. He worked there for 10 years but always knew he wanted to strike out on his own and open his own practice. He started to look for places in the Mariemont/Montgomery area and part of his practice, which includes midwives and delivering mothers.

Garrett is married to Angela, an attorney who works with a national insurance company. They already have a special connection to Mariemont because they were married by our Mayor, Bill Brown, on May 7, 2022. Their “real” wedding was taking place on June 2, in France, but because

In the next year, Garrett would like to get more involved with Mariemont and the surrounding communities. He has attended Mariemont Area Chamber events and is looking for other opportunities to get to know people in the area. He would like to encourage members of the community to stop in and see him and is extending a special offer to residents who bring in his April Town Crier ad.

Garrett credits his career success to the personal experience he has had with chiropractic. He was in pain but was saved from surgery and life-long issues through the care he received from a chiropractor. He wants people to know that if they are in pain, and it is affecting their life by restricting their activities, he can help. He is a strong believer in Life University’s guiding principle of the Lasting Purpose: To live an innerdirected life, to give, to do, to love, to serve, out of your own abundance.

When he is not working, Garrett enjoys hiking, camping, and fishing. He and Angela enjoy the bike trail and are big fans of The Dilly and the National Exemplar. They have a Golden Retriever, Uso (bear, in Spanish) who is two, and a nine-year-old Malti-poo, Ranger. The Knuckles cont'd on page 13
