How We Help Our Patients
Your good health starts with your spine, but many people don’t give it much thought. Maybe it’s because it’s behind us: we can’t see our spines in the mirror every day, so it’s too easy to forget about them! Still, if you want to live life at 100%, you can’t ignore your spine and your nervous system. Your Dunwoody chiropractor is here to make sure you give it the attention it deserves.
We encourage a lifelong partnership dedicated to your 100% wellness. We focus on both corrective and preventative care to help you move beyond the symptoms that interfere with your lifestyle and into greater awareness and understanding of what your body is capable of. We also offer prenatal and pediatric chiropractic care so your whole family can benefit. Whether you’re recovering from an accident or injury, wanting to improve athletic performance, or simply needing to maintain your health at its highest possible level, we look forward to meeting you.

Expectant mothers are welcome, too: chiropractic care can help ease the discomforts of pregnancy and prepare you for a healthy labor and delivery.
- Corrective Care: Habitual movements patterns, accidents, aging, illnesses, and more can cause misalignment and subluxations in the spine. By restoring the spine’s natural curves, we give your body the opportunity to thrive at its full potential.
- Chiropractic X-Rays: By monitoring your progress, we can adapt your treatment to suit your specific current needs. As your spine changes, your treatment plan will need to change.
- Massage Therapy: Tight muscles tend to hold old patterns in the body and can pull the vertebra back into a misaligned position. Healthy, relaxed muscles make each chiropractic adjustment more effective.

Dr. Samantha March, D.C.
About Dr. Sam (The Snapshot Version):
Dr. Sam’s passion for helping patients achieve optimal health is evident immediately upon meeting her. She is on a mission to change the face of healthcare within her community because most people usually seek doctors when their health is failing them, and at that time are forced to make choices out of fear or anger. Dr. Sam is determined to stem the tide and make the necessary changes now so that future generations don’t continually become sicker than their predecessors.
With her expertise and certifications described below, Dr. Sam has learnt how to provide excellent care to pregnant women, pediatrics, athletes, and geriatrics. (For more information about why more families are seeking chiropractic care before/during pregnancy and for their children, see the above tab “Chiropractic for Pregnancy & Children”).
She assists families, and community organizations (such as churches, schools, and corporations) to build healthier outcomes through chiropractic care, and health coaching – which includes nutritional counseling, and fitness prescriptions.
Her Introduction to Chiropractic:
Dr. Sam originally hails from Jamaica. She attributes her diligent, fun-loving personality to her childhood experiences while growing up there. Originally, Dr. Sam was introduced to the study of Chiropractic while pursuing her pre-medical degree in Florida. A local chiropractor gave her inspiration when he reminded her that the nervous system controls the entire body; without it and its proper function, the body will malfunction and cease proper working ability regardless of exercise and nutrition. This changed her life forever, as Dr. Sam was experiencing blinding migraines, neck and back pain, painful menstrual cramps, and yearly flus at the time. By meeting other patients whose lives were also changed by chiropractic care, she became an advocate for true health within her community and became a Holistic Health Coach. And now, she serves as the chiropractor Dunwoody, GA families and surrounding communities have come to trust.
Her Training Includes Nutrition, Pregnancy & Pediatrics:
Although Dr. Sam had extensive nutritional counseling and lifestyle coaching experience as a Certified Health Coach since 2011, Dr. Sam desired to have a deeper understanding of the health systems of the body, and pursued the Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University where she graduated in 2014. She went above and beyond to pursue highly focused expertise in the area of pediatrics, prenatal care, and family wellness. As such, Dr. Sam became certified in Webster Intrauterine Constraint Technique. This certification allows Dr. Sam to prepare the expectant mother and her infant for labor and delivery by optimizing the pelvic alignment.
Dr. Sam has completed over 200 additional hours of focused training surrounding pre-natal, maternal, and pediatric care. Early 2016, Dr. Sam will be certified by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics as a CACCP (i.e. a Certified Prenatal & Pediatric Chiropractor). This lifelong learner’s pursuit continues for the highest degree conferrable in Chiropractic Pediatrics: the Diplomate of the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (DACCP), which includes another 200 hours of research and training. (For more information about why more families are seeking chiropractic care before/during/after pregnancy and for their children, see the above tab “Chiropractic for Pregnancy & Children”).
Dr. Sam’s certifications also include extensive training in corrective chiropractic care that would also help those with abnormal/scoliotic curvatures in their spine.
Dr. Sam Improves Corporations and Community Organizations’ Wellness Programs:
When she is not spending time with patients, Dr. Sam is actively helping Dunwoody community organizations such as corporations, churches, and schools to initiate/improve their health initiatives. The driving force behind her work with the community stems from personal losses in her family due to illnesses fostered in unhealthy, stressful corporate environments. As such, Dr. Sam can be found educating her community on a weekly basis. She is available to speak at your place of work, worship, or play. Contact us today at (770) 457-1571 or via email to see how we can support your favorite organization.
Additionally, she is a regular contributing writer for health and family publications such as Smyrna Parent and Best Self Atlanta. As a Life Force doctor, she can be found introducing prospective students and mentoring future chiropractors to formulate their own personal contributions to better healthcare. Local holistic groups such as Pathways Connect and the Georgia Birth Network consider her office a center of learning within the community and they often take the time to meet there. Dr. Sam’s desire for community wellness has enabled her to build a strong network of holistic doctors, midwives, and other healthcare professionals to ensure her patients receive exactly what they need.
Her Family:
Outside of the office, Dr. Sam loves to spend time with her two boys. They love traveling, experiencing new cultural adventures, and watching movies.
Dr. Sam is truly honored to serve as a local chiropractor in the Dunwoody, GA community. Visit our Dunwoody chiropractic center today and learn how to live life at 100%.
Chiropractic for Pregnancy and Children
There is a common theme you will find at 100% Chiropractic in Dunwoody: we LOVE families! We take our mission to save families from unnecessary illnesses, medications, surgeries, and debilitation very seriously. For our own legacies to survive, it’s important that we raise a healthier, active, thriving generation today. So, when we say “Let Our Family Take Care of Yours” we definitely mean that!
Dr. Sam has always felt most fulfilled educating and caring for families because of personal losses that were sustained in an unhealthy environment. As such, her life mission to stem the tide and educate the masses for a healthier today and tomorrow is palpable. At 100%, you’ll see women (whether planning, expectant, or post-partum) and their children as a staple within this practice because of her specialties as a Prenatal/Pediatric chiropractor.
So, chiropractic is vital before, during AND after pregnancy? Most definitely! Here’s why. In order to successfully develop and maintain a health pregnancy, the female body was perfectly designed. However, stresses during childhood activities, auto accidents, and strenuous activities have all created cumulative load on the female body and detrimentally affect the spine. It is for this reason that we take x-rays of planning (pre-pregnancy) mothers to ensure that her spine is in the correct alignment. If so, her menstrual cycle may be better regulated, posture normalized, and optimal hormonal or nerve flow to allow proper uterine function. If there are misalignments to the spine, nerves within the body are often damaged and symptoms like infertility, body aches and pains are common.
These health issues reportedly worsen for the expectant mother, as her body undergoes amazing changes to facilitate baby’s growth. As exciting as this is, it’s often met with physical discomfort and pain for mothers. This can lead to a difficult pregnancy and labor due to a misaligned pelvis and improper fetal positioning, which increases chances for medical interventions during birth that may provide further risk to the health and well-being of mom and baby after birth. After delivery, mothers with an even further misaligned spine can now report difficulties with breastfeeding, worsening of pre-existing or new aches and pains, and other common post-partum symptoms including depression.
What about my newborn, toddler, or teen? More parents are actively seeking chiropractic services for their children. Birth is equally traumatic for mother and child, especially if that child was in the wrong position in utero. A difficult, lengthy labor only worsens the birthing experience for a newborn, especially if further medical intervention is needed to allow labor to progress and for delivery to occur. How do we know birthing is traumatic? Unfortunately, the statistics are clear. Debilitating birth injuries to the neck, spinal cord, or limbs of infants often occur. Rates of c-sections are higher, and SID rates increase yearly. Even daily issues such as latching, colic/reflux, constipation, difficulty sleeping, bedwetting, incoordination, behavior and attitude problems, and a “child that is always sick” i.e. has a depressed immune system often result.
How does it happen? Newborns have spines that can get misaligned easily because of its immature nature and the tugging of the head during birth usually is the primary culprit to shifting the first bone in a baby’s spine. Research has found that spinal misalignments will affect the baby’s development causing the symptoms previously described. However, immediate pain and symptoms may not result from these misalignments. But, if these misalignments are left there, then additional health issues can develop such as ear infections, allergies, behavioral issues (ADHD), and a depressed immune system. As this baby develops from infancy to toddler, pre-teen, and adolescent, the improper balance of the spine can result in other symptoms that can follow them into adulthood.
Our safe, and gentle approach at 100% utilizes techniques that effectively correct the position of the spine so that the body can heal. Chiropractors do not treat a specific condition; we specialize in the correction of these spinal misalignments that impair the function of the nervous system, and its ability to transmit vital information from the brain to the rest of the body for proper body function. Each adjustment corrects these misalignments to allow for optimal health expression.
In sum, chiropractic before, during, and after birth is vital for mother and child. A safer, more enjoyable perinatal and birth experience is possible and chiropractic’s role in that is unmistakable. Raising a healthy baby, and active toddler/teen is achievable and translates to healthier adults. Feel free to visit our testimonial tab above, Facebook page (look to the right) and other social media to see how mothers and children have faired better while under Chiropractic care at 100% Chiropractic in Dunwoody.
