Chiropractor

Bill Blueter D.C., FIAMA, IFMCP

Dr. Blueter is a graduate of the National University of Health Sciences in Chicago, Illinois. He is a chiropractor certified in medical acupuncture, as well as a certified functional medicine practitioner. He is passionately devoted to supporting, educating and coaching individuals in achieving optimal health and wellness.

To relax, Dr. Blueter can be found fishing on the banks of lakes or the Cuyahoga River with his son, Will. His prized catch (and release) was a Goliath Grouper off the coast of Florida. He also enjoys playing chess, listening to audio books, running and cycling outdoors. Having competed in several endurance races ranging from triathlons to marathons and even a 24-hour adventure race in the Allegheny Mountains, the most thrilling moment for him so far has been swimming from Alcatraz in the San Francisco Bay and finishing the grueling Escape from Alcatraz Trithalon. Dr. Blueter and his wife, Jen, love cheering their son on at all his baseball and basketball games.

When asked why he became a chiropractor in Ravenna, Dr. Tyler replied,

"When applying for jobs after chiropractic school I wanted to be located in the tri-state region of WV, OH, and PA. After several interviews, I interviewed at Ravenna Chiropractic and Acupuncture which I found would be the perfect fit for how I envisioned myself practicing chiropractic care. I saw a great opportunity to help a community very similar to where I grew up and to learn from another experienced chiropractor that had very similar training and schooling as I. Becoming a chiropractor has allowed me to improve knowledge and skills, as well as develop personal relationships with my patients and the local community of Ravenna, Ohio."
