Dr. Sara Nelson is the founding
and lead chiropractor at
Freedom Chiropractic.

A native of Wisconsin, she received her undergraduate degree in Biology from the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point. She went on to pursue a Doctorate of Chiropractic at Palmer Chiropractic School in Davenport, Iowa, where she graduated in 2011.

Dr. Sara’s passion for serving people and seeing them flourish in health was born out of her own experiences. By the age of 10 she was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, by 11 had her first surgery, and as a senior in high school was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. A gifted athlete, she went on to play college basketball in South Carolina and Wisconsin in spite of these health struggles.

While in chiropractic school, Dr. Sara learned about the body’s ability and potential to heal itself. After receiving her own corrective chiropractic care, she was able to get off of medications she had taken for 14 years, and has had no side effects or problems since. These experiences have shaped Dr. Sara’s desire for people to realize their true potential in health and experience the freedom it brings their lives.

After graduating from Palmer, Dr. Sara practiced in a local office in Knoxville, TN for the past four years. While there, her love for the people of Knoxville and her passion to serve the community in a greater capacity was realized, and the vision for Freedom Chiropractic was born.

Outside of work, you can find her laughing and enjoying time with her husband, Nolan, soaking up the sun on a pontoon, exploring the outdoors, or spending time with her dogs and her horse – Rory, Blue and Whinny.

Dr. Bridgette Orr joined the Freedom team as its second Doctor of Chiropractic during the fall of 2017.

Dr. Bridgette is originally from Philadelphia, Pa. and has always had a passion for a healthier lifestyle. Her discovery of chiropractic happened when her mother introduced her to the chiropractor due to pain in her upper back from playing soccer. After just two visits she was able to play without any pain, igniting her interest and leading her to shadow her chiropractor in high school and later to work for him.

Dr. Bridgette played soccer for Liberty University and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science. Having a passion for science and function of the human body, her exercise science degree fueled the fire as Dr. Bridgette continued to research and study chiropractic further.

In September of 2017, she received her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Life University in Marietta, Ga. She has interned for both Life University and Freedom Chiropractic for a total of a year and half, and during the internship at Freedom she found a love for the city of Knoxville and a heart for its people.

Dr. Bridgette wants to continue to empower people to lead healthier happier lives through chiropractic care. This desire stems from her dad, Bill’s story. In her last year at chiropractic school, Bill was really struggling with low back pain and knee pain which made him unable to exercise, and he suffered from severe pain when he went to work each day. After Dr. Bridgette took him to the chiropractor for consistent chiropractic care, he was pain free. Bill learned that his body can heal if there is no interference, was able to start exercising again, began to eat healthier, and lost 40 pounds!

Outside of serving at Freedom chiropractic you can find Dr. Bridgette cooking with her husband, Tyler, outside with her dogs Cooper and Oakley, playing soccer, and exploring Knoxville.
