“I have suffered from chronic back pain for years. I work out, eat healthy, and do all the right things, but could never get full relief. I’ve had imaging, physical therapy. Nothing worked. I refused to resort to pain meds. Let me tell you, Motivity Chiropractic has changed my life. Dr. Ray listens to your concerns and really customizes each adjustment to your needs.

Do not suffer. Take control of your health.”

Chiropractor

Dr. Ray Knorr

A beach transplant, Dr. Ray moved from his hometown of Pensacola, Florida, to Birmingham in 1995 to attend Birmingham-Southern College. Expecting to return home in 4 years, he instead fell in love with the Magic City and has lived in Birmingham since.

Dr. Ray graduated Summa Cum Laude from Life University. He is a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) and is certified to practice the Webster Technique, a safe prenatal care protocol that promotes optimal baby position, and safer & shorter labor times. Dr. Ray also has training in the Melillo Method, an extensive program that provides a means of recognizing developmental delays in children—delays that may contribute to autism, ADHD, dyslexia, OCD, and others.

Having participated in high-level athletics (soccer and tennis) throughout his collegiate years, he is well-acquainted with the rigors of training and the injuries that often come with it. He currently enjoys competing in triathlons, trail runs, whitewater canoeing, climbing, and mountain biking.

Dr. Ray loves music and plays multiple instruments. He and his family love the outdoors and frequently hike, camp, and seek out secret swimming holes throughout the southeast. Dr. Ray and his wife, Parrish have 2 children, Josie and Raymond.

While attending BSC, Dr. Ray made many fond memories in Southside Birmingham. He is now so eager to bring high-end chiropractic care to the area and beyond!

“I pledge to you that I will be that doctor who stops what they are doing and listens to you. I want to be that doctor who really thinks through your problem and your story. I’ve seen many patients who come to me after having seen ten other doctors and getting passed back and forth with no one really trying to truly solve their problem.”
