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 our 10 years of Chiropractic practice in the Atlanta Area we have helped thousands of patients. Let us help you get out of pain and get on with your life! My name Dr. Christopher J. Connelly, DC. I have been in Chiropractic private practice for over 10 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.  "A good diagnosis is the first step to a good treatment" So the first step in treatment at my office is obtaining an anatomical diagnosis concerning the cause of your pain. The next step is to get you out of pain as soon as possible. We will then work to correct any problems utilizing chiropractic, physiotherapy, disc decompression, exercise, injury avoidance, home care, massage and diagnosis specific procedures. I also understand that sometimes a patient may need to be referred to a medical specialist or surgeon.
