Dr. Matt and Dr. Lauren: Charlotte’s best chiropractors.

Bringing a wealth of experience to Charlotte, Dr. Matt and Dr. Lauren share a common passion for chiropractic care. Their soft tissue work may have you cursing their names, but by the end of your visit, you’ll be singing their praises. They’re more than just practitioners – they’re your partners in health.

Dr. Matt and Dr. Lauren of Catalyst Chiropractic

Our Philosophy

At Catalyst Chiropractic, we understand that life moves fast and pain can be a major roadblock. You simply don’t have the luxury of being sidelined by discomfort, nor can you afford to spend endless hours in a doctor’s office every week. Whether it’s your job, your family, or your daily responsibilities, pain shouldn’t hold you back from the things that matter most. The last thing you want is for your physical suffering to keep you from going to work, or worse, to steal precious moments from your kids who deserve your full attention and energy.

That’s why our philosophy is rooted in helping you recover quickly and effectively so that you can get back to living your demanding life. We’re committed to making sure your body functions at its highest potential, in the way nature intended, so you can move freely without the constant worry of injury or discomfort. Our approach is centered around helping you restore your body’s natural balance, giving you the strength and flexibility to handle whatever life throws at you.

Dr. Matt is amazing! After two appointments my headaches/migraines are already subsiding and I had previously had one or multiple ones every day for a month. I drive about 30 minutes to get to the office and it is well worth it. Excellent atmosphere, knowledge, and skill.

I started seeing Dr. Matt regularly after having a negative experience with a cortisone shot for a pinched nerve in my foot. Together we were able to locate the exact source of my referred pain after a single session. After several sessions of adjustments, muscle work, and dry needling, I felt tremendous relief in my back (the major pain source) and long after the cortisone shot had worn off I was left pain free! Without Catalyst I would most likely still be experiencing constant nerve pain and may have even had to consider surgery. I've been pain free for almost 2 years!

Struck gold in my Google search for a chiropractor with Catalyst! Had finally decided to see one for the first time ever in my 30s, with scoliosis that caused me to wear a back brace as a teenager. Dr Matt has gotten my back feeling much better overall and has tried quite a few treatment types (scraping, cupping, dry needling) to get to where it’s at now. Used to get random painful arm tingling in my sleep that would wake me up but haven’t noticed this since starting to regularly get dry needled and adjusted. Can’t believe I waited as long as I did to try a chiropractor and so glad I found Catalyst!

I had very painful and tiring TMJ for 4-5 years. It completely controlled my life and I was in serious pain and discomfort every single day. I’ve tried many things over the years to help it (massages, pain meds, muscle relaxers, soft food diet, stretches, dentists, specialists, heat / cold therapy, and even another chiropractor.) Nothing has worked at all until seeing Dr. Matt. After just a few sessions of dry needling / adjustments, my pain is significantly better.. almost fully gone. I don’t remember the last time I was pain free for multiple days in a row. Dr. Matt listens, cares, and truly wants to help you. He is excellent at what he does and I am extremely thankful for his work changing my life and helping me live pain free. I just wish I had gone to him sooner!

Focused attention on problems/issues, with well-informed discussion not just of how to treat in the office but also recommendations on rehab/strength exercised for home. This is not a factory for "quick cracks" that I've experienced at many other chiro offices where they just try to cycle thru as many patients as possible, but intentional engagement from Dr. Matt geared towards actually making my life better.

Catalyst Chiropractic is fantastic. I have had recurring herniated disc/muscle spasm issues for years and went to see Dr. Matt. He evaluated my issues and we discussed a variety of treatment options, ultimately landing on dry needling and other myofascial treatment. As Matt describes it, his practice lands squarely inside the "triangle" of chiropractic care, physical therapy, and massage therapy - and I found this to be exactly what I needed to address my recurring back problems. I strongly recommend seeing Matt or Lauren.

My girlfriend and I have been going to Catalyst for the last two years and in that time I changed careers from a generic corporate job to manual labor after starting my own business. From addressing my tight hips and lower back due to sitting at a desk all day, to focusing on my shoulders and traps with some pretty intense treatments, Dr. Matt has adjusted his approach accordingly. Whether it be routine adjustments, or scraping, cupping, and dry needling, I have always left Catalyst feeling well cared for. My girlfriend sees Dr. Lauren and has just as positive of an experience on a consistent basis. If you’re looking for chiropractors who truly care for your body and understand what it needs to recover and thrive, go to Catalyst!

Catalyst is by far the best chiropractor clinic in Charlotte. If you are experiencing pain, discomfort, or tension ANYWHERE in your body, there is a 99% chance that it’s something Catalyst can provide immediate and long term lasting relief for. I am a bodybuilder/triathlete and am always tweaking either my lower back, hips, shoulders, etc. I have been coming to Catalyst for 4 years now, and when I come see Matt we talk through my issue, he works through the problem, and within just a few days I am already feeling better. Matt has so much knowledge and expertise in the field and knows so much about how the body works; it’s actually fascinating. He is so versatile as well, that whether you have a unique sports injury, weightlifting injury, or just something from sitting at your desk odd, he can always get to the root problem and figure out the best solution! Highly recommend. 10/10, best chiro I’ve ever been to.

The BEST chiropractor I’ve ever been to!!! Matt has not only fixed my back but he has also taught me daily exercises to implement so my back stays fixed. I cannot recommend them enough!

I have been going to Catalyst for almost two years now, but most recently I was seeing Matt for chiropractic work while I was pregnant. I went throughout my entire pregnancy and I cannot recommend it enough. Matt and Lauren both were very knowledgeable and made me feel extremely comfortable. From adjustments, to dry needling, to cupping - I can't imagine how I would have felt if I did not go to them throughout pregnancy. Highly recommend in general but definitely during pregnancy!
