Education and Certifications
Joy received her bachelors degree in Sports Medicine in 1992 from Messiah College in Grantham, PA., and became a Nationally certified Athletic Trainer (ATC) later that summer. (By the way…an ATC is different than a Personal Trainer. Feel free to ask Joy what the difference is). She received her Masters degree in Physical Therapy from the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in 1994.
On a Personal Note…
Joy takes pride in being a native of Colorado. She currently lives with her husband and her two birds in Castle Rock. She grew up as a competitive gymnast & soccer player. She enjoys watching most sports & loves to cheer on the Broncos, Rockies & Avalanche. Other than sports, she enjoys church activities, going to auctions and spending time with friends and family.

Dr. Brent R. Graves has been practicing Chiropractic in the Littleton area for over 34 years. Most of that time in a clinic with medical doctors, chiropractors, massage and physical therapists. His experience with traditional medical treatments, chiropractic care, and physical therapy protocols make him an excellent choice to help you find the right provider for your current condition.
“Working side by side with all these types of caregivers and hearing what can be done gives me great insight when I consult with a patient. I can talk them through all their options, instead of just the Chiropractic part, and help them decide what is best for them. That’s why I formed Healthcare Alliance Inc., to have as many of these providers in one place as possible.”
After 34 years in the same area, Dr. Graves has developed a very family oriented practice which fits his personality perfectly. Call his office today and set up an initial consultation with a doctor who only wants the best for you. (720) 306-8280
