Joe DeMarco, D.C.

Dr. Joe earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science from the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. While at UMASS on a gymnastics scholarship, Dr. Joe was a two-year captain of the gymnastics team and became the New England All-Around gymnastics champion.

After graduating from the University of Massachusetts, Dr. Joe spent the next four years earning a Doctorate of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic.

While at chiropractic college, Dr. Joe began competing in bodybuilding competitions. From 1989-1994, he won numerous bodybuilding competitions including the lightweight divisions of the Mr. Iowa/Illinois, Mr. Maine and Mr. Continental USA bodybuilding championships.

During an eleven year hiatus from bodybuilding competition, Dr. Joe became a competitive judo and Brazilian jui jitsu player. He then returned to bodybuilding competition on September 24, 2005 at which time he won the middleweight division at the Mr. Massachusetts Bodybuilding Contest.
