Dr. Bryan Christoffer, D.C.

Philosophy:
Dr. Bryan believes in a natural approach to maintaining happiness, wellness, vitality, and peak performance through regular chiropractic adjustments, optimum nutrition, daily exercise, supplementation, and eliminating toxins and stress. His philosophy when treating patients is that proper structure will equate to proper function. When the bones and joints are misaligned, it creates added stress on the body via an abnormal feedback loop to the brain that is often hard to overcome. This, in-turn, creates added stress on the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that are attached. By removing the misalignments, there is less nerve interference, and the body is able to heal itself. When your body’s structure is sound, your function will be optimal thus reducing injury, pain and ultimately… disease.

Other than providing Chattanooga chiropractic care, Dr. Bryan loves playing soccer and spending time on the lake! You may even see Dr. Bryan at the local soccer park 1-2 nights a week or hanging out with his dog, Atlas! Atlas is our therapy dog at 100% Chattanooga. He also enjoys learning new things, reading books, talking about sports and riding his motorcycle!

How We Help Our Patients:
Patients are often surprised at the number of ways that our team at 100% Chiropractic in Chattanooga can assist them in feeling better and living better. Using the latest treatment methods along with keeping up-to-date on new techniques, we make a personal investment in helping you to live “100%”. We are available to do so much more than just help alleviate back and neck pain, although that is a big part of what we do. Did you know that chiropractic adjustments have been shown to improve the symptoms of many annoying conditions that keep you from experiencing the fully active life that you deserve? Regular chiropractic care addresses interferences in your nervous system that can be the cause of a myriad of issues, including:

• Neck, joint, and back pain
• Digestive problems
• Headaches
• Sleep disturbances
• Blood pressure irregularities
• Immune system deficiencies
• Asthma
• Allergies
• Balance disorders/Vertigo
• Energy imbalances

While illness, sports injuries, and accident-related injuries lead many patients to seek chiropractic relief from our office in Chattanooga, these same patients are inclined to continue with routine treatment. After seeing the many benefits that come from a genuinely whole-body approach to health and well-being, the previously skeptical person often become a 100% enthusiast! These individuals find that they are also noticing a vast improvement in their overall function!

The services that we offer at our chiropractic clinic located in Chattanooga caters to the specific, individualized needs of our patients, making us the premier source for Chattanooga chiropractic care.

Prenatal and Pediatric Care: Prenatal chiropractic care can help soon-to-be Moms have a more comfortable pregnancy and help her prepare her body for the difficulties of childbirth. Also, we can employ a gentle technique to address common misalignments found in infants, toddlers, and young children.

Personal Injury (Auto Accident): Treating patients after they have experienced a physical trauma requires a particular kind of care. Time is of the essence as soft tissue damage in and around your spine, if allowed to heal out of line, can cause chronic ongoing issues. Having the less obvious of spinal injuries assessed soon after an accident is vital. Acute soft tissue injuries often get overlooked without the attention of a chiropractor. We have been uniquely trained to look for these subtle and potentially dangerous misalignments.

Corrective or Reconstructive Care: Many spinal misalignments do not arise from a traumatic injury or accidents. They tend to happen over time! Throughout our lives, certain habits – such as posture, heavy lifting, and even workouts can cause recurring issues within your spine therefore your entire nervous system. We use corrective care to help bring back the natural curvatures and alignment of your spine and return order to your nervous system. With a combination of adjustments, exercises, and massage therapy patients often experience improvements in sleep quality, energy, mood, and more!

Geriatric (Elderly) Care: We have the belief that every human should live a healthy life up to their last day on this planet! There are so many people in their 80’s and 90’s out there running marathons, still mowing their grass every week, or playing tag with their great-grandkids! It is no coincidence that their spines are in great shape! However, as the stresses of chronic (long-term) spinal misalignments compound over time – having gone unchecked by a chiropractor for decades – some of us aren’t able to experience life as we know we should! We can find that activities as simple as picking up a toddler or walking to the mailbox can be a difficult task. Through gentle, low-force techniques used to realign the spine, we improve the quality of life of these individuals so they can “thrive” through their golden years rather than simply “survive!”
