Georgia Upper Cervical Chiropractic
Struggling with lingering symptoms after a concussion? Post-concussion syndrome (PCS) can cause headaches, dizziness, and difficulty focusing, making daily life feel overwhelming. These lingering effects often disrupt work, hobbies, and relationships, leaving you searching for relief. At our clinic in Ball Ground, we understand the challenges of PCS and are committed to providing personalized care to help you recover and feel your best again.
Post-concussion syndrome doesn’t just affect your head. Symptoms like headaches and dizziness can often lead to secondary issues, including low back pain, due to posture changes or muscle strain as your body compensates for the discomfort. These interconnected problems can exacerbate PCS symptoms, making recovery more challenging. Our chiropractic care focuses on treating the whole body, helping to reduce low back pain while addressing the root causes of PCS.
For those dealing with dizziness or vertigo as part of PCS, techniques like Epley’s maneuver can play a key role in recovery. This simple, effective technique helps reposition displaced crystals in the inner ear, significantly reducing dizziness and improving balance. Paired with our targeted chiropractic adjustments, Epley’s maneuver provides a comprehensive solution to the physical imbalances and discomfort associated with PCS.
We’re currently accepting new patients at our Ball Ground office.
Recovery from PCS requires more than a one-size-fits-all approach. At our Ball Ground clinic, we design individualized recovery plans tailored to your specific symptoms and lifestyle. From targeted exercises to improve coordination and strength to treatments that relieve low back pain, we provide holistic care to help you regain control of your life.
Posted on Della GillTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an excellent experience with this upper cervical specialist. From the moment I walked in, the care felt personalized and attentive. They really focused on what would make the biggest impact for my recovery, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Erica at the front desk was incredibly kind and welcoming, which set the tone right away. Dr. Klopfer took the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and never made me feel rushed during my visits. Most importantly, I’ve had great results and am feeling so much better after my car accident. I’m truly grateful for the level of care I received and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, targeted treatment.Posted on Clint WeatherbyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional and dedicated to my care.Posted on SouthernBasement1Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been visiting Ryan Klopfer at Georgia Upper Cervical since 2020, because of back issues which started in my 30’s. I was looking for instrument assisted chiropractic adjustments, which is very different from the hit or miss “neck cracking” which did not always work for me. Yes, there are other ways to get an adjustment. From the very first meeting with Ryan, he was very attentive and great at listening, never gave me the sense he was in a hurry or that I was holding him up, and I really felt that he was empathetic and truly cared. He explained his chiropractic process and expressed to me that his goal is not to create patients who require regular ongoing visits, but to actually address root causes, and hopefully see his patients less and less as time goes on. In the five years since that time, that’s exactly how things have gone for me and my wife. I sometimes have issues and I may need to see him semi regularly for a few weeks, then several months may go by and I’m perfectly fine and won’t see him for a while. I could go on, but to keep the review brief, I cannot recommend Ryan Klopfer more highly! Far away the best chiropractor my wife and I have ever worked with, and we both consider him a good friend as well.Posted on KalynTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the moment you walk through the door to when you leave, the office is warm and inviting. Dr. Ryan and his assistant, Erica, are very knowledgeable and explain things in a way that makes it all easy to understand and why their adjustments work. They keep my body running in perfect harmony—I have fewer headaches, less illness and continued ease of mobility and flexibility from seeing this practice regularly. I am so grateful for their services and giving such a great alternative to modern medicine. Added bonus: after I get my adjustment, they offer what I call a “zen room”, where I lay back in a zero gravity chair, in a minimally lit room, with soft music playing and Erica gently places a nice heavy blanket on top for added coziness—sitting in that room for about 15 minutes is often the highlight of my busy week!Posted on Melissa LeCourTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so incredibly thankful I found Dr. Klopfer. From the very first visit, I could tell he genuinely cares about his patients and takes the time to really listen. His approach is completely different from the typical “quick crack and go” experience. He carefully evaluates your specific needs and creates a customized care plan that is truly tailored to you. After just one visit and a shockwave therapy session with Erica, my lower back pain was gone. I was honestly shocked at how fast I felt relief. It was life changing for me. Now we’re working on my neck, and I’m already seeing such encouraging results. I am convinced that Erica works miracles in the shockwave room! What I appreciate most is that their goal isn’t to keep you coming in forever — it’s to help you heal and feel better so you can come in less often. That says so much about their integrity and the way Dr. Klopfer runs his practice. If you’re in pain and looking for someone who truly cares and delivers real results, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Klopfer. I’m so grateful for the difference he’s made for me. ????Posted on vickie hTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After suffering for years with lower back and hip pain, I was very skeptical that anyone could help me. After one visit with Dr. Ryan Klopfer I was improved. After five weeks of weekly treatment I am very pleased with my progress. It's a process and I'm committed to it, and Dr. Ryan and Erica are doing a great job!Posted on Scott PooleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Ryan and really helped my get my pain controlled. I’m over 50 and have never gone to a chiropractor before. Dr. Ryan’s upper cervical approach is nothing like what I expected (crazy contortions and feeling like my neck was being broken). His use of X-rays, machines, and gentle adjustments led to great results!Posted on knablemTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Ryan does an excellent job of creating alignment without cracking and is consistent in his approach to overall healthcare.
Yes. Gentle upper cervical adjustments can restore balance in the neck and nervous system, which often speeds recovery after concussions.
Misalignments at the top of the neck can interfere with blood flow and nerve communication, slowing healing. Correcting them supports recovery.
Absolutely. Upper cervical care uses precise, non-invasive adjustments that are safe even after head injuries.
Some patients notice relief in a few weeks, while more severe cases may require ongoing support for months.
Many patients combine chiropractic with rest, nutrition, and physical therapy for the best results.
