Adam Squires, DPT, OCS, Cert SMT, Cert DN was born in Mesa, Arizona before moving to Virginia during middle school. He then completed his undergraduate degree in Exercise Science at BYU in Provo, Utah.  He completed his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree at the Mayo Clinic School of Health Sciences in Rochester, Minnesota. Following graduation, he was one of the few graduates accepted to complete a year-long orthopedic residency at the Mayo Clinic where he received advanced training in the diagnosing and treatment of muscle, joint, nerve, back, neck, and knee issues. 

He has been a Board Certified Specialist in Orthopedic Physical Therapy since 2018. Much of the training he has completed since joining the Body Balance Physical Therapy team has focused on the hands-on diagnosis and treatment of spine-related ailments. He is one of the few therapists in Idaho to achieve a certification in spinal manipulation through the American Academy of Manipulative Therapy. He has also completed all the requirements to achieve a certification in dry needling. 

He firmly believes that patients have the best opportunity to achieve their goals when there is good communication between the therapist and patient combined with the appropriate hands-on therapy and exercises. He strives to listen with care and empathy to each individual that walks through the door. This allows for a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan that addresses the source of the problem.  

He has a particular passion for treating those who suffer from headaches and neck pain. Having seen how severely headaches can limit a person’s ability to live the life he/she would like, he finds it immensely satisfying to help these same individuals return to doing the things they love. 

He loves spending time with his beautiful wife, Ashley, and three children. He enjoys a wide range of sporting activities, including basketball, weight lifting, and soccer.
