The first time Dr Ryan adjusted me I felt relief. I wasn't able to sit in my car ten minutes without having pain. After the adjustment I rode to Alabama and Florida without pain. Thank you so much.

Dr. Ryan and Corey are a great team that provide an awesome chiropractic experience. The techniques he uses are advanced compared to a regular chiropractor. You actually see how much you are aligned (or misaligned). To get the care you need I would highly recommend a visit to Ball Ground Upper Cervical Chiropractic.

I came in after suffering 3 months of sciatic pain in my left leg Dr Ryan assessed me with x-rays and let me know what he thought he could do for me and within 4 weeks I'm feeling so much better knowing that I'm going to be fully healed within just a couple more weeks. The staff and Dr Ryan are very welcoming and make you feel like part of the family when you're there with them I would recommend them to anyone who's been suffering with pain.

HEALER. After 40 years of struggling with neck pain that had only worsened with time, I can finally say that I have found the relief I've been longing for. In just one appointment, I experienced immediate relief, and now, months later, the pain has subsided, giving me a renewed sense of hope. Dr. Ryan and his team are true professionals, exuding patience and an exceptional depth of knowledge in their field. Their practice is evidently centered around prioritizing the comfort of their patients. I am profoundly grateful to have stumbled upon this practice in North Georgia.

I absolutely love reading other people's positive experiences in the long list of 5-star reviews here. I've just completed 3 full visits and I feel like a totally different, healthier person already.Ryan at Ball Ground Upper Cervical Chiropractic is honestly out of this world! After years of trying different chiropractors without seeing real results, I found Ryan's unique and magical approach to chiropractic to be truly transformative. From my very first adjustment, I felt a significant improvement, like 90% better! Zero migraines my first week, after just one session (compared to my usual 3+ migraines per week). The targeted and gentle approach Ryan takes is unlike anything I've experienced before, and it works wonders. The atmosphere at the Ball Ground location is incredibly welcoming, friendly, and fun, thanks to Ryan and Cori. I'm excited to see how much my health will continue to improve with just a few more visits. Trust me, it's worth it— I'm saying goodbye to endless doctor appointments, prescription refills, and wasted time due to constant migraines. Thank you, Ryan and the team, for giving me hope and relief!

I’ve been visiting Dr. Ryan Klopfer’s office for a few months now and am happy to report that not only have I experienced noticeably less aches and pains, I’m sleeping so much better at night. The team here at Georgia Upper Cervical puts you first. They are sincerely trying to get you back to your best self and actively look to limit the number of visits needed. This is unlike any other chiro I’ve ever visited. In the past, my previous chiropractors tried to get me to come in 2-3 times a week. Once everything is stable, Dr. Klopfer aims for me to come in quarterly which is great. Highly recommend!!

Dr. Ryan's brand of chiropractic care is unlike any I've ever experienced. After he got my initial issue corrected several years ago, he has kept me aligned and pain free with a very minimal maintenance regimen. He is an excellent Chiropractor; I would recommend him to anyone who wants the best solution to their problem in the shortest amount of time.

Dr. Ryan Klopfer and Team are incredible. I recently had knee replacement surgery and found out I had a leg length discrepancy, made worsen by a life time of scoliosis. Dr. Klopfer has vastly improved my quality of life and eliminated my pain and suffering. At the age of 55, I no longer feel like I am 85 years old. I highly recommend Dr. Klopfer's approach, method of treatment and care. A big THANK YOU.

Once in a life experience with Dr. Ryan… experiencing over 20 something yrs of excruciating pain in my head neck and back after a terrible accident, I found this incredible Doctor who has change my life completely… Dr Ryan’s hands on therapy work wonders for me, it gave me hope I was finally able to go days at a time without pain for the first time for a long, long time… he is very gentle and focus on solving the problem, very polite patient n kind… he makes sure you are very satisfied with your therapy sessions… It’s my pleasure to recommend him to anyone who really believes in natural remedies and quality care. His office is clean, quite, Cozy and welcoming as well

I have been a patient of Dr. Ryans for a couple of years now. I came to know him through Dr Ken Humber whom he studied under. I have seen many of Dr. Kens students in the 40 years i have been seeing Dr. Ken Humber. I can recommend Dr. Ryan and this type of treatment as I have had several family members who were told they needed back surgery. They all chose to use Dr. Ken Humber or Dr. Ryan I highly recommend Dr. Ryan an Nicole have been nothing but professional and worked very hard to correct anything in my back. I had a wreck in 1996 and have 1 herniated disc and five bulging disc diagnosed with an MRI. I chose this treatment and have had no surgery to date and take no pain medication of any kind. All I need is to stay in alignment for a good lifestyle. One in which I am healthy I believe due to good alignment and a overall healthy lifestyle.

So very happy a friend told me about Dr Ryan. I would have never believed my neck was causing hip problems and leg pain. Started to help me immediately and everyday is better. I've been to Orthopedic Dr. And physical therapy, did not help at all. I'm so very grateful for this relief. Thank you Dr Ryan

Dr. Ryan and his staff are an absolute pleasure to work with. I was suffering from lower back pain and hip misalignment for almost two years. I never thought that such a quick, painless adjustment in my neck would be so beneficial! My hips were almost instantly realigned and I experienced an immediate relief of pain. Dr. Ryan takes X-rays and goes over them with you before making any recommendations or adjusting you. He pays great attention to detail and is by far and away the best chiropractor I've ever met. A great person and great practice!

I just so happened to see the sign for BGUCC on the way to Jasper one day and I’m so glad I did! I have had upper cervical adjustments before and know they work for me, so this was the best find! I really appreciate the overall attitude and outlook of Dr. Ryan and his staff - they have an honest, straightforward approach and are very positive, encouraging the patients to be that way too. IMO, positivity or the lack thereof has a huge effect on our health, and I love that Dr. Ryan and staff work to empower patients. As for the treatment, I have absolutely loved it! I felt a difference immediately in my entire body, even my eyes - I felt them clear up and my vision became sharper right away. Other aches and pains have gone too - a stiff back, painful foot, etc. It is truly amazing what the body/brain can do once things are in alignment, and BGUCC is helping my family and I to see that for ourselves. So thankful for them!

I very rarely write reviews but I can't say enough about Dr Ryan and his team. I had severely injured my neck, with multiple bulging discs and severe spinal stenosis from c2-t1. I was in level 10 pain, popping 10mg of oxycodone every 4 hours and it was barely taking the edge off. For two months I went the traditional medical route with epidural steroid injections, physical therapy etc but nothing was helping. Both an orthopedic surgeon and a neurosurgeon had recommended surgery. (laminectomy along with multiple layer fusions which would have significantly changed my life.I have always had a fear and skepticism of Chiropractors. The idea of "cracking" my neck was not something I was comfortable with, but I happened to stumble across Dr Ryan while I was desperately looking for solutions that would help but not lead me down the surgical path.My First appointment with Dr Ryan, I could barely move and remember having to stop the car to lay down multiple times while I made the hour drive to his office. He took a number of measurements and x-rays on the first appointment, then explained how he makes the adjustments. (not traditional cracking but instead using a mechanical arm thing that doesn't "crack" you but instead just applies relatively gentle pressure).The next day I came back, he had reviewed all the x-rays and taken measurements and knew exactly what manipulation needed to be made. He put me under the machine, and a few seconds later it was done. He re-took the measurements, confirmed everything adjusted and I walked out. (even an untrained eye can see and understand the measurements). By the next morning my level 10 pain was down to a 5!!!A few days later I went back, he took the same measurements, confirmed that I had lost the alignment, and he made the adjustment again. By the next morning my pain was almost completely gone. I came off the oxycodone and never went back on.About a week later I went back, and the adjustment had held! He did some fine-tuning with a handheld machine he uses but all in all my pain was nearly gone. So much so I actually went skiing the next week!I've since been a few more times but super happy to say my alignment has held and my pain is nothing more than a level 1 and I'm confident that with time it will completely go away.The other thing I really like about Dr Ryan, besides not doing the aggressive neck snapping chiropractors are known for, he truly doesn't want you to be a life long weekly client where you're in there every week having adjustments. Once your adjustment holds and you're out of pain he wants you to move on and live your life! At this point my alignment has held for 3 weeks and I'm not going to see him for another month.I hope I never need his services again but I know if I ever have neck pain again he'll be my first call!For those of you skeptical of chiropractors in general I would highly recommend talking to dr Ryan before considering any major surgeries. He truly saved the quality of my life and I can't recommend he and his team enough!

Most of my problems/pain are related to Lyme Disease. But, new issues came up and, for a couple months, I could not stand straight and could barely move without being in terrible pain. Dr. Ryan was honest and said he didn't know how much he would be able to help me, due to the Lyme Disease but, he would do as much as possible. After the first adjustment, I walked out standing straight and the (newest) pains had greatly diminished. By the next day, I felt like a new person. For the last several years, my hands go completely numb within 5 minutes of driving. After the second treatment, I drove all the way to Mississippi/New Orleans and back (Tate, Georgia - 1200 miles round trip) with very minor numbness, really not even enough to mention. I'm very thankful to have found Dr. Ryan.

I have had a great experience with Dr. Ryan and team. The practice is nice and the staff is accommodating. I went in as a post neck surgery patient who had exhausted every option at tackling chronic neck pain. I’m happy with the service that I have received, as Dr. Ryan has taught me that it’s a whole scale picture of health that we achieve by bringing our bodies into alignment. I will continue to come here again and again!
