Spine & Sports Injury Center

What Spine & Sports Injury Center does

Spine & Sports Injury Center is a multidisciplinary chiropractic and physical therapy practice founded in 1986 by Dr. Richard Green in Boston, Massachusetts. It operates as Boston's first practice to combine chiropractic care and physical therapy under one roof, supported by three chiropractors and five physical therapists plus specialized trainers and a yoga instructor. The practice serves general musculoskeletal patients, amateur and professional athletes (including Boston Red Sox alumni, CrossFit Games competitors, and marathon winners), post-surgical patients, office workers, and luxury hotel guests at Four Seasons One Dalton.

The service portfolio spans core chiropractic adjustments and one-on-one orthopedic physical therapy, augmented by a broad set of specialized techniques including Active Release Technique, Graston/IASTM, Dry Needling, Class IV Soft Tissue Laser Therapy, ARPwave bioelectrical therapy, RockTape kinesiology taping, Foundation Training, Fascial Manipulation, Active Isolated Stretching, Anatomy in Motion, and Diversified adjustments. Equipment-based differentiation comes from the Manuthera 242 multi-positional treatment table. Assessment services include Functional Movement Screen, Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA), Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) golf screening, and Running and Gait Analysis. Telehealth consultations are delivered via the American Well platform, and digital intake is handled through online paperwork.

Revenue is generated through a hybrid of insurance-billed services (in-network with BlueCross BlueShield, Harvard Pilgrim, United Healthcare, Tufts, Aetna, Medicare, Mass General Brigham Health Plan, and Tricare), self-pay/out-of-pocket rates, motor vehicle and workers' compensation claims, package-based personal training (8 to 30-session bundles with 5-15% discounts), and a premium concierge channel at Four Seasons One Dalton. Distribution occurs across three physical touchpoints (Back Bay/South End headquarters inside CrossFit Invictus, CrossFit Southie in South Boston, and on-site Four Seasons One Dalton delivery), a telehealth channel, and digital marketing via SEO, social media, Google reviews, and a YouTube channel. The practice is privately held, founder-owned, with no external investment or institutional affiliation.
