Meet Dr. Josh Morter
Dr. Josh helps Murfreesboro families live better lives through state-of-the-art therapies combined with traditional chiropractic care.
At Morter Family Chiropractic, we welcome every member of the community, from babies and children to moms & dads.
Dr. Josh holds a special place in his heart for women suffering from headaches, migraines, neck pain and shoulder issues. His passion for helping those in pain began in high school when his mother was in an accident. She suffered from persistent neck pain and headaches for years due to a misdiagnosis, an experience that shaped his commitment to personal injury care and the treatment of complex neck conditions.
With a reputation for excellence in the treatment of TMJ disorders, he partners with local oral care providers in co-creating positive outcomes for those dealing with this painful issue.
A Third-Generation Chiropractor
“I come from a distinguished line of passionate chiropractors. In fact, my dad has been a respected instructor at Palmer College of Chiropractic for more than four decades.”
After completing his military service, Dr. Josh entered college to earn a business degree.
“It didn’t take me long to figure out that commercial enterprise just wasn’t for me. I switched my major to pre-med courses and never looked back.”

A Thirst for Knowledge
Dr. Josh studied business at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU), then earned a Bachelor of Science from Excelsior University in 2009, followed by a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 2011.

- Advanced Upper & Lower Extremity Treatment, 2014
- Documentation and Coding, 2015
- CBP Cervical Rehab, 2018
