He then pursued both a Masters of Science in Sports Medicine and Doctor of Chiropractic from the University of Western States in Portland, OR.

He brings both his clinical and personal experience in sports medicine and rehabilitation to provide the highest level of care for every patient he sees. He has a passion for keeping people active and making sure that they are on track to reach their personal goals. Whether it’s getting back the sport you love, being able to keep up with your children, or simply getting through the workweek pain-free, Dr. Adams will be by your side along the way.

Dr. Freedman received his BS from Cornell University and his Doctor of Chiropractic from the University of Western States. Growing up, he was a devoted soccer player, which led to a series of sports injuries. Through the utilization of Chiropractic, he was able to continue playing competitive soccer throughout his undergraduate studies. This positive experience led him to become a Chiropractor. He strives to help people live more enriched lives and has found his passion in helping eliminate the barriers that stop people from doing what they love.

Through personal experience, Dr. Freedman has gravitated towards an integrative approach to care with an emphasis on adjusting and soft tissue treatments, as well as targeted exercises that get to the root of the problem. He believes that his job is not only to help people heal, but to also give them the necessary tools and knowledge they need to empower themselves into feeling even better than they did pre-injury. Dr. Freedman has a strong interest in understanding the cause of an injury, which has led him to study human biomechanics. This interest has led him through training by the Prague School of Rehabilitation in the principles of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization as well as becoming a certified yoga instructor. He has also completed training in the McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy, which is especially efficient at treating disc herniations.

Dr. Freedman was drawn to the Pacific Northwest by his love of mountains and the outdoors! You can find him rock climbing, skiing, mountain biking, hiking, camping with his partner and their dog, River!
