New Life. Supports and elevates the total health of each member of our vibrant and diverse community. We help the greater Chicago area live their best active, healthy, and happy life.
Dr. Mertes has been nationally recognized as a premier pain specialist. His unique approach is holistic, integrative, and above all, gets results.

Dr. Tim graduated with honors from the prestigious Parker College of Chiropractic in Dallas, TX, in April 2001. Three months later, he moved back to Illinois to open his first office in Peru. In December 2017, he opened his second office in Bolingbrook. He provides natural, sustainable pain relief and preventative care to patients of all ages.
Dr. Tim has extensive training in nutrition, mindset, exercise, and minimization of toxins. In his practice, he performs a wide variety of full spinal adjusting techniques, and provides nutrition and lifestyle counseling to promote the body’s natural healing ability.
Chiropractic was a large part of his lifestyle while growing up, which formed his natural and holistic approach to healthcare. Upon meeting his future wife, Nicole, in 1996, Dr. Tim added to her family’s legacy by going on to become the seventh chiropractor in her family. He has dedicated his career to helping people create a personal and natural health and wellness plan for life.
In addition to caring for patients, Dr. Tim leads an active and dynamic lifestyle. He and Nicole have five children: Jack, Emma, Luke, Will, and Quinn. He enjoys golfing, fishing, and many varied activities with his family.

Pain Treatment

Chronic pain is debilitating, relentless, and depressing. We restore relief and get you back to happiness.

Weight Treatment

Carrying excess or insufficient weight can lead to multiple long-term health problems. We help you balance from the inside out.

Joint Treatment

One pound of excess weight exerts four pounds of pressure on knee joints. Lessen your load and stay mobile.

Sciatica

Sciatica pain typically radiates down one side from the lower back into the leg and is most common in people ages 30-50. Regular adjustments get you up and active again.

Migraines

Migraines are the third most common illness in the world. We help you take charge of your health and restore normal function without medication.

Sports Injuries

Left untreated, sports injuries often get worse leading to severe complications. We can help get you back on the field.
