Athens Chiropractic Healthcare

For more than a decade, Athens Chiropractic Healthcare has been helping patients to obtain a pain-free lifestyle. In 2004, Dr. Joel Groft first opened the doors to ACH with the mission to provide the Athens area community with a conservative health care option. We are a general family practice that combines spinal manipulation with muscular therapy, rehabilitation, and preventative methods.

Dr. Carl Mankiewicz is a board certified Chiropractic Physician who grew up in Canada and New Hampshire, and relocated to Athens, GA. When he was a teenager, Dr. Carl sought chiropractic care for back and shoulder pain he experienced due to her participation in competitive running and rowing. He was impressed with how chiropractic care relieved his pain without the use of drugs and surgery. This is what inspired him to pursue a career as a chiropractor. Dr. Carl has long been involved in athletics, health, and nutrition.

At Athens Chiropractic Healthcare, we take great pride in providing the finest full-body chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our office. We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques.

Active Release Technique (ART) is proven to resolve headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow conditions; to name a few, quickly and permanently. These conditions are often a result of overused muscles. At Athens Chiropractic Healthcare we offer the most effective treatments for these common injuries and complaints.
