Athens Chiropractic Health Philosophy

Chronic back pain or neck pain does not generally occur overnight, unless caused by an injury or accident. And — it generally is not resolved overnight either. Gentle, consistent treatment is the key to long-term recovery and relief.

Chiropractic care, by nature, is non-invasive and drug-free. Yet it IS a science that relies on manipulating the subtle intricacies and interactions of the nervous system with the physiological framework of your body.

Chiropractic care is the art of identifying the root cause of the pain and molding the outcome. While in most cases chiropractic care takes time; some pain may be resolved more speedily.

Dr. Groft is an educator and former athlete who believes in chiropractic health care. He cares about the well-being of his patients and innately understands the science of back and neck pain relief and long-term recovery.
