Reduce Pain & Restore Movement with Gentle, Proven Chiropractic Care

I had an L5 disc herniation. I literally couldn't do anything throughout the day without being in excruciating pain. I was out of options and scheduled to go in for a second surgery in two weeks. I got referred to Dr. Evan by a friend who had also seen Dr. Evan. She had such great results, she said I should at least try one visit.
It was just over an hour drive for me which again excruciating pain just to take the ride there.
On my first visit, we were supposed to just have a consult, But he could tell the pain and hell that I was going through. After x-rays, he decided to do a minor adjustment. I could barely lay face down on the table and he couldn't even touch the affected area on my lower back. Whatever he adjusted on that first day made a slight difference so I decided to go back two more times after that. After three visits, it was almost a complete 180. The relief I felt was incredible!
Fast forward, Three visits a week for two months straight, I'm back to normal activities and 100% full duty at work as a Lineman! No surgeries necessary!
I recommend Dr. Evan to anyone and everyone that I hear complain about neck or back issues!!
10 out of 10 highly recommend!

Dr. Hughes is an outstanding chiropractor and an exceptional diagnostician. I’ve been seeing him for almost two years, and I’m continually impressed by his ability to truly read the body and know exactly which adjustment I need each session. Nothing ever feels generic — his care is precise, intentional, and very effective.

After a serious accident in March of 2025 that resulted in a burst fracture of my L2 vertebrae and required a spinal fusion, he's been instrumental in getting me back to 100%. His expertise, attention to detail, and genuine commitment to my recovery made all the difference. I honestly can’t recommend him highly enough!

Dr. Hughes and his staff are fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful and friendly.

I cannot attest to his abilities, (we never got to that point) but his "bed side" manners were horrible. He was disrespectful in his words and lacked patience.

Highly recommended! After several years of suffering from crippling migraines and neck pain, Within three months, Dr. Evans was able to get me back to living a pain-free life where my migraines are almost nonexistent. His office is very warm and welcoming. The ladies at the front desk always greet me with a smile. He’s extremely flexible (haha) With his scheduling, which is extremely important for my crazy life. Overall, just a wonderful experience in a pleasant atmosphere..

Dr. Evan is thorough, knowledgeable and informative when it comes to treating my back/body pain. I have visited several other chiropractors in the past, which I have nothing bad to say about any of them, but I have received the best results since being treated by Dr. Evan and the techniques he uses. I've noticed big improvements when it comes to performing manual labor, going to the gym or trying to keep up with my two kids. It may not happen overnight for some conditions but my advice would be to trust his plan and schedule for your treatment and follow his recommendations.

I couldn't imagine finding a better chiropractor!! Dr. Hughes and the staff are incredible people, warm and welcoming the moment you step through the door! I walk in looking crumpled and walk out feeling like a million bucks!! That's exactly how I felt today!

Dr. Evan is thorough and incredibly knowledgeable. I have been to many chiropractors and he is, by far, the best. I am able to FINALLY sleep soundly and wake up without neck and back pain. My digestive system is back to normal and I’m able to stand tall without the lower back I’ve been living with for years. I can not recommend Dr. Evan highly enough.

I was given Dr. Evan’s name by my previous chiropractor when I moved further away from her location, and I was lucky she did. Dr. Evan is a very thorough provider with a vibrant personality who makes appointments fun to attend. He takes the time to explain all that is happening with my spine and his approach to strengthening the whole body has really made a difference in improving my mobility. He also works with my 12 yr old, and Dr. Evan has a great way of talking to and connecting with kids. My kiddo and I always look forward to our adjustments and will continue with Dr. Evan as our provider for the foreseeable future.

I drive over 1 hour each way to get adjusted by Dr Evan Hughes. Super through exams that I wasn't getting from other offices in Southern NH. Im walking taller and feeling much better after Dr Hughes adjustments

Dr. Evan is an excellent chiropractor. I am in healthcare for about 35 years, working in different areas. I know that being a good chiropractor needs vast expertise and experience. Dr. Evan has this expertise. He changed my body posture from an old woman to a young woman. I have more energy and strength. I appreciate him a lot and highly recommend him.

I’ve been going there for a while and the staff and the doctor are great and they have helped my back in feet issues dramatically. I am so happy I found them and I will be a loyal patient forever., thank you so much!!

I had been suffering with accumulating lower back, right leg, and neck pain for 28 years since my twin pregnancy. I had gone to so many doctors to include my primary care physician, physical therapists, other chiropractors, foot doctors, spine doctors, orthopedics, massage therapists, and acupuncturists to name a few, with no improvements. Instead, I had been prescribed years of pain meds, anxiety meds, depression meds and shots because of the physical pain I was in. My insurance companies and I have paid so many medical bills with no renief.
After going through Dr. Evan Hughes's 3 month program, for the first time in 28 years, I am making so much progress. There is light at the end of the tunnel. My body has made space to heal. Things are moving back into the places they belong. Scar tissue is disappearing. Inflammation is decreasing. Following Dr. Evans’s plan, I have built up the small muscles required for my posture and balance to improve. I am sleeping better. I no longer have daily reflux. My pain is minimal. No more Meds!!!! I am amazed with how much better my body feels in 3 months.

Make sure your insurance covers. Couldnt have stressed it enough that i really couldnt afford to pay out of pocket and after he assured me that it would be all figured out, it wasn't. He made it sound like I would be all set but didn't even check if his service was covered by my insurance. Knowing what i know now, businesses usually check with the insurance first before starting anything. This guy never checked, charged me up front and waited until the end of it all to then leave it up to myself. I got no help at all and ended up paying in full out of pocket. He said if I had any questions to ask the girl at the front desk. After trying myself and not knowing what to do at all I tried to ask her and she told me it wasn't her that dealt with that and it was the other lady that worked the front desk. Problem is out of all the times I went there over the course of 3 months I only saw this one girl no other girl. Pretty much just got the run around from them. He totally took advantage of me and didn't even fix my problem. Im still in pain to this day. His only suggestion was to come back in and spend more money.

I came to Boxborough Vitality through a recommendation of another patient. I had years of back pain built up and I was struggling to stay active. I had been to other Chiropractors with no success. Within two weeks of seeing Evan Hughes, I felt like a new person and after two months I am running again. I have been seeing him regularly for 2 years now. Everyone on his team is fabulous and is focused on your success. I am so thankful for his care.

I couldn't work or do my workouts because I felt a lot of pain, but after three months I can do everything again. Thank you Dr Evan and team you are the best!

I was referred by a friend to Boxborough Vitality. Because my arm would go numb when riding my motorcycle for 15-20 minutes. I was a little skeptical at first but within a couple of weeks. I knew I was in good hands. They set me up with a plan and after a few months, I feel great and have learned a lot about my body, and I am on a great road to success. I can ride my motorcycle for hours now without getting numb. and I look forward to the future of riding without getting numb at all.

I have been going to Dr. Evan for a few years now to treat a myriad of injuries sustained over prolonged periods of my life from sports, computer work, and poor posture / stress. After seeing Dr. Evan, my migraines have alleviated, my lumbar back pain is entirely gone, and my joints feel stronger and more fluid. I can't recommend him enough. He and his staff are fantastic, and he is incredibly in tune with sensing where blocks and stiffness are in the body. He is incredibly talented and skilled at what he does.

Boxborough Vitality has simply made a tremendous impact upon my life, physical health and well-being. It almost feels as though the wear and tear that life had put on my body is reversed (and it’s the closest thing to it!) I was also able to lose 49 pounds, weight that my body simply was unable to shed until I started working with Dr. Evan Hughes and his absolutely wonderful team. This outcome and education on how the body works were beyond anything I have ever received from my PCP or doctors office, and if I could go back in time, I absolutely would’ve gone so long ago. I now feel so much more empowered to handle and care for my body, physically while going through life. This release of my physical tensions has done wondrous things for my mental health. I am all the more excited now that one of my family members has also decided to become a client of theirs, and I can’t wait to vicariously re-experience the what I got to go through.1000% recommend these guys!!!

When I first started going to see Dr Hughes I could barely walk on the treadmill at the gym because my right toe and right knee hurt so badly (And I have a high pain tolerance) I couldn't sleep, when I lifted weights I felt like my shoulders were going to rip off and I could not sit up straight because my posture was so off.

I saw a Facebook video of Boxborough Vitality and I thought if I feel this way at 43 how will I feel at 53, 63 and down the line so I reached out.

Within a few hours I had a consultation set up and off I went to meet the team. When I arrived I there was a sign set up that said "Welcome Jeff!" I was instantly at ease. Doctor Hughes listened to me, took notes and asked me a simple "What do you want to be able to do again" I answered I want to be able to run again. I have been to a couple of Chiropractors before and none of them ever asked that question...I liked it because I am goal oriented and now I had something to strive for.

X-rays were taken that day and then I went back the following day to get the results...as expected I was all crooked and my vertebrae's were a mess. Doctor Hughes slowly and patiently explained what was going on and then told me with confidence how he was going to correct it.

He then asked me do you want a quick tuneup or do you want to go all in and correct all the issues? (contrary to some tv shows I have seen / articles I have read, long term neglect does not get solved in one visit)

I went all in and I am glad I did. Every one of my visits starts with a greeting from Tina and then being assigned a room. Once you are laying on the table Dr Hughes comes in and starts his work. He will give simple instructions on how he wants your body positioned and then he starts the correction. That is the best part...Dr Hughes knows what adjustment he is looking for and sometimes your body won't give it up so but he knows what needs to be done and will try different techniques and when he finally gets your body to adjust he will give out a celebratory phrase like "There it is! or I got it" It shows he is passionate about what he does as well as thorough. The adjustments / techniques will change from visit to visit (he knows a lot of techniques and will use the best one for your situation)

Then comes the hard part (for me) you go across the hallway and Tina gives you an exercise or a task to get your body stronger, looser and teach it how to respond to the adjustment you just had. I would ask her each morning how she was going to embarrass me today (joking of course) but she is always patient, non judgmental but insistent that you get the task correct to help your body.

With all the adjustment and exercise the whole visit only takes about 10-15 minutes so getting to work on time is was not an issue and they have a good range of hours

Fast forward to today...I am in phase 3 of my journey and I can say I feel better than I have in a long time. I can not only walk on the treadmill pain free I am now running for distance, walking at 12 inclines and I can lift weight at the gym like I haven't in 10-12 years. I stand straight and most of my pains are gone. Its hard for me to remember how I couldn't even walk a quarter of a mile due to pain.

The Doctor and the staff will get you know you, they send you thank you's in the mail, they will give you equipment to bring home so you can keep progressing.

I am not one to write a lot of really any reviews but this experience has been a very good one for me so and I hope that if someone is on the fence about going to Boxborough Vitality it gives them the push to go and at least meet with Doctor Hughes for a consultation.

My novel is concluded....I look forward to my next adjustment Monday morning!

Couldn’t be happier with my experience at Boxboro Vitality. I felt major results based on my commitment of visits. Every time I visited the office my appointment was very prompt and pleasant. I’ve met several chiropractors and Dr Evan is certainly one of the best.

De Hughes is great! Went to see him at 39 weeks pregnant to help engage baby and within one appt he was able to help engage baby in right position!

“Maybe I should see a chiropractor,” I thought to myself off and on over the couple of years through which I had nagging knee pain. During a GP visit, a visit with an orthopedic doctor, few physical therapy treatments, no one really listened to me when I said “my whole right side feels out of whack” (to be fair to the PT, she was sympathetic, but since “the paper” only said knee, knee was all she could address). FINALLY I went to see Dr Hughes who listened, diagnosed and explained. About halfway through the prescribed set of visits and I can feel a real difference in the knee pain, hip issues and general sense of well being. Still a way to go, but am confident Dr Hughes (and his team) will get me there. Wish I hadn’t waited so long!

We live out of state, but when we visit family, we try to find time for adjustments with Dr. Evan. This particular trip we signed our daughter up for a consult and exam because she's been having back issues with no one being able to help. Dr. Evan took time with her even though she's not a patient, did a full thorough exam - we FINALLY got answers for her longterm pain that no one else has been able to identify. Dr. Evan and his staff then went the extra mile to help us find a great chiropractor in SC that can fix the things with her. If you are local, you need to visit Dr. Evan - he'll give you a thorough exam and explain everything so that you have a full understanding of what is going on and how it can be fixed.

I have been in lots of pain for months now and no one has been able to give me any answers, Dr. Evan did an exam and adjustment and helped me tremendously. I wouldn’t have been doing the right things if I didn’t visit him

Neck and shoulder pain brought me to Dr Evan. He is a listener and healer. He values his patient’s time and knows consists treatment makes progress. I have had significant improvement in mobility without pain.

Today Dr. Evan Hughes gave me hope. Tomorrow I will begin my journey of a better quality of life, that I was left without after surgery. I needed that today. Thank you

I started seeing Dr Evan when I was about 6.5 months pregnant (third pregnancy) and could barely walk or stand up after sitting down due to back pain. I’ve always had lower back pain since I was in high school, and have arthritis in my spine as well as stenosis. I saw Dr. Evan three times a week right up until we moved to NC when I was just past 8 months pregnant. He worked wonders on me and I was able to walk and even chase my other two kids during the last days of my pregnancy. It was a miracle. I even had a much smoother delivery and went into labor naturally this time around. Thanks Dr. Evan!

It has been a pleasure to meet with Dr. Evan Hughes and the staff at Boxborough Vitality. Their care has been very valuable to me. I highly recommend them!

I have been visiting Dr Evan last 4 months and it's been rewarding experience. When I came into visit, I had sever backpain but with proper diagnosis and frequent adjustments my pain reduces in few visits and with continued treatment my pain is gone now. Dr. Evan and his team took utmost care and highly recoeveryone. eveyone.

Dr. Evan is awesome! He is knowledgeable, professional and has a great sense of humor. I came in with a really injured low back, pain in my jaw, neck and mid back. My upper neck was completed inverted and causing jaw pain for 10 years. After a few months the post images showed the neck had realigned. Jaw pain gone.

I was having trouble doing yoga and going from seated to standing. I had a severe muscle spasm in my low back that had left me very immobile. I had a hiatal hernia which he also helped by realigning my stomach. The remarkable transformation that occurred with the adjustments is nothing short of a miracle. Today, I am PAIN FREE and not experiencing reflux. I can’t express my gratitude enough for the healing modality of a top-notch chiropractor- especially one who works into the craniosacral therapies.

I believe we need to be doing preventative spine health as part of a holistic program. I thought getting older just felt like this … painful cracking … I now know that I can grow older without pain. FREEDOM. Feeling thankful and grateful to have (what feels like) my 30 year old body back.

I’d suffered from chronic bouts of cervical radiculopathy (pinched nerves and neck pain) for close to 15 years. It had gradually become worse and worse. Migraines, loss of feeling in some of my fingertips, unable to sleep soundly, and being a life long martial artist; it hindered most of my movements. I’d tried muscle relaxers, PT, massage therapy and even chiropractic care many years back but only ever got limited relief.

I’d almost swallowed the fact that I thought I’d just be in miserable neck pain the rest of my life until the massage therapist I’d been seeing recommended Dr. Hughes. I’ll admit I was skeptical at first as my last chiropractor didn’t yield much results.

Needless to say, I wish I’d found Dr Hughes years ago! His expert care, planning, and exercises have yielded amazing results. I’ve gone from having a migraine at least once every 2-4 weeks to not having had one since I started seeing him. It’s been 6 months! I can honestly say that it’s given me a new lease on life and health.

To anyone dealing with chronic pain in your joints (not just the spine), do yourself a favor and see Dr. Hughes!

Had never been to a chiropractor before Dr. Evan. He is a wizard who works with you to address your concerns each visit; his compassion and care for his patients is evident. I recommend him to anyone!

The interminable list of "Now I can..." is a testament in itself for Dr. Evan. I never thought I would let a chiropractor crack my neck again. But Dr. Evan is so reassuring that I let him, and he continues to do maneuvers that clearly benefit my body. I can now stand up straight, walk faster, and balance better. I came in with hip pain at a 9-10 level and after 3 months it's way down. I expect it to get to zero in good time. I'm very grateful to Dr. Evan for his skill and ability to "read" my body. He tells me I came in like a little old lady and now leave like a sprightly older lady! Thank you, Dr. Evan.

Honestly I was skeptical about the process because of social media portraying neck snapping, spine cracking stuff but Dr. Evan was absolutely amazing. He meticulously listened to my issues before working on my back. We graduated at a very steady pace. Now I can really feel my body moving differently in just 3 months. Lot of energy, stamina, form, strength, flexibility. No more pain. No more limits. Thank you.

Evan's treatments have given me great relief from back pain, making it possible for me to start my day without debilitating discomfort. He has a great sense of just what needs adjustment and how my body is reacting; few practitioners have his touch and instinct. Evan and his staff work hard to make treatments effective and efficient. I'm 88, and I'm grateful for Evan's effort to keep me active and energetic.

Dr. Hughes is magic! He and his staff work with you to develop an individual treatment plan to help you heal, using many different techniques including adjustments, muscle memory, muscle strengthening and balance to name a few. Best chiropractor I have ever been to and I've seen several over the years. Highly recommend!!!!

I absolutely wish I had come to Boxboro Vitality sooner. I was involved in pelvic floor PT, doing yoga, stretches, walks, and nothing has given me long term pain relief until I have come here. I believe that the physical therapy gave me a strong foundation of recovery, but the chiropractic work is what pushed me to be able to fully recover. I love how he involves energy work, balance work, and works with the entire body mechanically. Before I had my first appointment I had started to accept that I would probably be in pain for the rest of my life (and I am only 28). I left my first adjustment literally floating. I have never been this emotionally regulated and my nervous system is FINALLY calming down. I have been able to cope with the stressors of day to day life with EASE. Also, because my nervous system is so regulated, I don't even crave alcohol anymore. SO many aspects of my physical and mental health have improved, and I didn't even realize how much pain I was carrying with me until I started coming here. 20/10 recommend, do not wait any longer, come see him!!!

I'm about a dozen sessions in with Dr. Evan, and I cannot even begin to express how happy I am that I decided to prioritize my own health. I've been living with a nagging pain in my back and left hip for almost a decade. I'm at the beginning of my healing journey with Boxborough Vitality, but I can say with absolute certainty that Dr. Evan is helping me in ways no one else has ever been able to. I've tried other chiropractors, acupuncture, pelvic floor therapy, yoga, etc. Nothing has helped. For the first time in a decade I am experiencing relief... And I just KNOW that I am at the beginning of feeling like a whole new me. I can't recommend Boxborough Vitality enough. Dr. Evan can help you. He's amazing. Funny too!

I came from my first appointment and it was way less scary than I thought it would be, I can’t believe it took me so long to make an appointment! Dr Hughes was really nice and very thorough and for the first time in months I feel hopeful that there is an end in sight to my back/neck pain, etc!

Dr. Hughes is a fantastic chiropractor. I came to him few months ago when I couldn't sleep or do normal day to day activities due to neck/shoulder pain and stiffness. Now, I not only got my sleep back but I can do my normal chores without any pain. Moreover, he guided me towards the right way of strengthening my body. And his staff is wonderful and very flexible if you have reschedule your appointments which can be easily done via simple text message.

A couple years ago I threw my back out so severely I could barely walk at all. Dr Hughes found that two of my vertebrae were out of alignment and has since worked to put them back in place. He has also provided me with insight and education that I can use for clients in my massage therapy practice. In addition to his medical expertise, Dr Hughes keeps a positive attitude and good sense of humor. I approve.

As a lifetime athlete with a myriad of issues, Dr Hughes not only helped me relieve my pain, but also has given me hope for a competitive future.

Great place! Lovely staff, great atmosphere!

I was walking, sitting and moving with chronic pain for a long time. I could not get in and out off bed freely. Physical therapy did not work. After seeing Dr. Evan Hughes for 3 months, now I am able to walk and move freely without pain. Dr. Hughes corrected my spine and adjusted my neck. Every visit, I felt improvement. He is a true master. He is thorough, does not rush and always explains his treatment. I feel well taken take of. His staff is efficient and friendly. Tina is always patient to show me the exercises that strengthen my back. She is wonderful. The office is nice and clean, well-managed. I am impressed in every aspect.

After a long stay at the hospital, I came out with a really bad case of Sciatica. I called for some adjustments and Dr.Evan fixed me right up!

As a healthcare provider, I know how important it is to find a clinically competent professional to help address your health needs and concerns. Dr. Evan is an outside the box thinker who utilizes a diverse range of interventions to help his patients. I had debilitating back pain which kept me from picking up my daughter, riding my Harley and playing baseball. He was able to get me immediate pain relief with suggestions on improving my pelvic stability. After that, his hands on interventions had me back to full activity participation within a couple weeks. From bed to activity in 2 weeks! Thats results. Dr. Evans staff is kind and accommodating. I can't recommend Boxborough Vitality enough.

The good doctor eliminated the painful TMJ symptoms in 2 visits. A subsequent course of greater alignment has given me more energy and more flexibility. He and his staff have proven more than equal to the task of helping me, even though I am in a wheelchair. Healing happens here.
