Arizona-based The Joint Corp., the nation’s largest provider of chiropractic care through The Joint Chiropractic network, reached a deal with franchisees Ron and Julie Kluff, James and Toni Petersen, and Jerusha Overton.

“The opportunity to expand into another new territory is a significant milestone for a brand. The Joint’s presence in Alaska marks an exciting new phase of growth for our company,” says Peter D. Holt, president and CEO of The Joint Corp.
