In Atlanta, Georgia, when you are in pain or have been injured, choosing a doctor is one of the most important decisions you can make. You want someone who is caring, knowledgeable, and accessible. Someone willing to take the time to go over all of your options and treat you as a person. During my 12 years of Chiropractic practice in the Atlanta Area I have helped thousands of patients. Let us help you get out of pain and get on with your life!

Hi, my name Dr. Christopher J. Connelly, DC. I have been in Chiropractic private practice for more than 12 years and over this time I have had over 40,000 patient visits. I have also performed over 200 independent medical reviews, impairment ratings, case summaries or disability reports. Almost 80% of all our new patients come from referrals from members of our Stone Mountain and Atlanta Community.

As an Atlanta chiropractor, Doctor Connelly practices drug-free natural pain relief treatment, as well as providing health care advice about detoxification, nutrition, diet, weight loss, and lifestyle.

Chiropractic treatment for back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain, joint pain, or headaches begins when chiropractor Dembowski examines you to determine what is causing your pain. X-rays may be taken on site at our chiropractor's office to see if misaligned joints are causing your pain. The chiropractor may also order lab tests.

Following his diagnosis, your chiropractor may treat your pain with one of several methods: chiropractic adjustment, pain relief using chiropractic instruments, spinal decompression, cold laser therapy, or acupuncture using meridian therapy.

For chiropractic adjustment, also known as chiropractic manipulation, the chiropractor manipulates your spine or neck, arm, or leg joints to restore mobility or align the joint properly. A joint can become injured by lifting heavy objects, poor work or sleep habits, repetitive motions, or sitting with poor posture for extended periods of time. The joint suffers tissue damage resulting in pain and inflammations, particularly when nearby nerves are affected. Chiropractic adjustment of the joint restores mobility, alleviates pain and muscle tightness, and helps tissues to heal.

Your chiropractor may use chiropractic instruments to treat back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain, wrist pain, or joint pain. The chiropractor may use the Adjustor, which delivers a comfortable and painless thrust to align a joint. The Percussor is another medical instrument your chiropractor may use to give pain relief to muscles and joints.

With spinal decompression the chiropractic patient lies on a computer-controlled table which gradually stretches the patient's spine, increasing the space between the spinal discs to better align them. Spinal decompression reduces spinal tissue swelling which causes pressure on nerves that creates back pain. The chiropractor will recommend a series of treatment sessions using spinal decompression to gradually expand your spine over time. Many chiropractic patients report spinal decompression provides great pain relief and enables them to avoid painful and expensive back surgery.
