Meet Dr. Milton Brinza

  • Board-Certified Chiropractic Physician

  • Acupuncture specialist

“Growing up I always knew that I wanted to be in healthcare because I love helping other people, but it wasn’t until I experienced debilitating back pain myself, that I discovered my exact calling. As an adolescent, I had a life-changing experience as a chiropractic patient, that solidified my life’s direction. Since then it has been my mission to be able to provide that same feeling for each person that I encounter. While going through my graduate education, I took a deep interest in learning the root cause of conditions and acquiring the best techniques possible to resolve them. It was this mentality, which allowed me to see the big picture when it comes to providing comprehensive healthcare. My true passion lies in providing a solution for each presenting condition. Although the area of complaint often holds immeasurable value in proper diagnosis and treatment, you can’t truly unlock a person's full potential until you look at the body as a whole. My goal is to not only resolve your symptoms but to tap into the enormous potential that lies within you to get back to doing the things you love. It is my promise that each visit will be met with happiness, love, and my best effort possible. Through cutting-edge evidence-based chiropractic care, I will provide my patients with effective and efficient treatment and empower them with tools to remain feeling great long down the road.”

As a board-certified chiropractic physician and licensed acupuncturist, Dr. Brinza enjoys providing a patient-centered and evidence-based model of practice. He is able to do this by embracing the clinic's comprehensive approach to treatment in order to better serve each person that walks through the door. He accredits his expertise in each aspect of his treatment through extensive training in dry needling and acupuncture, soft tissue therapy including Active Release Technique (ART) and Graston, adjustments/manipulation and rehabilitation through Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS). He is also highly trained in Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA) which he utilizes during examinations to accurately diagnose and locate the cause of presenting conditions. Additional training performed by Dr. Brinza includes time spent with the Motion Palpation Institute and Mckenzie Institute.

Dr. Brinza was born and raised in Terre Haute, IN. He was actively involved in his community through various volunteer groups and sports teams. He went on to compete at the Division 1 level in cross country and track & field at Indiana State University. There he graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science. He then went on to obtain his Doctorate of Chiropractic from Logan University in St. Louis, MO. Dr. Brinza enjoys staying up to date with the latest research in the field of chiropractic medicine. He still actively participates in hands-on courses which allows him to stay current with all of the latest chiropractic protocols.

When he is not with patients or staying up to date with chiropractic literature, Dr. Brinza enjoys spending time with his family and friends. He practices what he preaches by staying active through various sports including running, cycling, crossfit, golf and many others. He accredits his happiness and high level of energy seen in the office to finding the things he loves to do and pursuing them.
