Dr. Ashli Linkhorn is the founder and owner of Sports Chiropractic Institute, where for more than twenty years she has been advancing the standard of care in sports rehabilitation and performance. Her work bridges the gap between rehabilitation and high-level performance — moving clinicians and athletes beyond recovery into measurable, sustainable results.

For fifteen years she has served as adjunct faculty at Life University, teaching in both the Doctor of Chiropractic program and the Master’s in Sport Health Science program, and for over a decade she has been a Graston Technique Instructor and Clinical Advisor — educating chiropractors, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and athletic trainers across the United States and internationally, with lectures from Hawaii to Sweden. Ten years on the medical staff of the Women’s College World Series sharpened that expertise in elite, high-pressure environments.

Dr. Linkhorn is widely recognized for translating complex concepts into strategies clinicians can apply immediately. Her teaching emphasizes critical thinking, movement quality, and performance-based outcomes — equipping professionals to elevate both their clinical reasoning and their patients’ results.

Beyond the clinic and classroom, she embodies the principles she teaches: a full Ironman, five half Ironmans, three 50K ultramarathons, and more half and full marathons than she counts. As a Level 2 Russian Kettlebell Instructor, she brings a working understanding of strength, durability, and movement efficiency to everything she teaches.

Dr. Linkhorn’s mission is clear: raise the standard of care, challenge outdated models, and empower clinicians to deliver at the highest level.
