About Us

Dr. Tyler Emmert is a dedicated doctor of chiropractic medicine and the founder of Core Sport and Spine (formerly Core Chiropractic), a trusted chiropractic clinic located in Salem, Oregon. He earned both his Bachelor of Science in Human Biology and his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the University of Western States in 2012. With a passion for helping others live pain-free, Dr. Tyler furthered his education to become a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician® (CCSP), a distinction that enables him to offer specialized care for athletes, injury recovery, and active individuals of all ages.

As a former athlete himself, Dr. Tyler enjoys helping others stay active and excel at their personal goals. His approach to care extends beyond traditional chiropractic adjustments; he often incorporates stretching, strength training, and targeted exercise into treatment plans to improve overall function and reduce the risk of future injuries. This integrative method enhances the chiropractic benefits that his patients experience and supports long-term wellness.

At Core Sport and Spine, Dr. Tyler is dedicated to providing personalized, patient-centered care. He understands that no two bodies or health journeys are alike. That’s why he tailors each treatment plan to the individual, taking into account their condition, structure, and goals. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic discomfort, or simply striving to feel and move better, Dr. Tyler’s approach is grounded in evidence-based techniques that deliver real chiropractic benefits.

His mission is to create a welcoming and results-driven environment where patients feel empowered to take control of their health. With an emphasis on education, movement, and long-term wellness, Core Sport and Spine is more than just a chiropractic clinic; it’s a partner in your journey toward better living.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Tyler stays active and grounded in his community. He and his wife, Joanna, are Oregon natives who love raising their children in the Salem area. They spend their time outdoors exploring, working on the property, and doing community outreach with their church. Dr. Tyler enjoys hunting, hiking, and staying active with the family as he continues his focus on exercise and health.
