Life in Balance Wellness is the small practice Dr. Chris Kowalik and his wife Dinah, a licensed massage therapist, opened after 30 years running a chiropractic and massage clinic together in northern Massachusetts. Ready to leave the cold winters behind, they found the Upstate, and Travelers Rest reminded them of their hometowns in upstate New York.
Chiropractic care and therapeutic massage work side by side here, with functional medicine programs and strength and flexibility instruction alongside. Dr. Chris graduated from Northwestern College of Chiropractic in 1989, Dinah trained at the New Hampshire Institute of Therapeutic Arts, and two more licensed massage therapists round out the team. The practice welcomes patients of all ages.
Reviewers return to the same themes: Dr. Chris asks thorough questions and really listens, his explanations make sense, and the office feels warm and welcoming.
