Dr. Kenneth Holewinski (affectionately called Dr. Ken) chiropractic career spans over 39 years and has gained extensive experience and expertise in his field. His dedication to improving the health and well-being of his patients has left a lasting impact on the field of chiropractic.

One of the hallmarks of Dr. Holewinski’s approach is his proficiency in the Pierce-Stillwagon technique. This specialized technique, which combines a blend of historical chiropractic principles with a simplified and logical procedure, focuses on the correction of vertebral subluxation complex. Developed by Dr. Glenn Stillwagon and Dr. Vern Pierce in 1963, the technique employs a distinctive table with drop-assist pelvic and cervical pads to facilitate realignment of the spine and pelvis.

At the heart of Dr. Holewinski’s practice lies a commitment to enhancing functionality and quality of life. He possesses an innate ability to establish a genuine connection with his patients, nurturing an environment of trust and empathy. He not not only works toward alleviating pain and discomfort but also works toward improving their overall quality of life.

Retiring from his Atlanta practice did not end his chiropractic journey; rather, it marked the beginning of a new phase in his mission to enhance the well-being of others, as he continues his practice at Grant Chiropractic in Blue Ridge.
