DC
Dr. Christina Knox founded Proper Balance Health & Wellness Center in 2006 with a vision that was ahead of its time: a clinic that blends advanced chiropractic care with regenerative medicine, medical weight loss, and aesthetic treatments under one roof. Not as add-ons. As an integrated system.
A graduate of National University of Health Sciences (2001), Dr. Knox spent years watching the same story repeat itself—patients shuttled from specialist to specialist, treated in disconnected pieces, never given a complete picture of what was actually happening inside their body or why. She became a doctor to change that.
"I'm not a pain care clinic. I look at the whole picture—your history, your goals, your why. That's where the real work begins."
— Dr. Christina Knox, DC
She's also a walking testament of her own work—an active, fit professional who practices what she preaches in the gym, on her skin, and in her own recovery. When patients say they want to feel and look like her, she takes that as the ultimate compliment—and the ultimate responsibility.
With over 25 years of clinical experience, she combines chiropractic care, rehabilitation, regenerative injections, red light therapy, medical weight loss, peptide therapy, and medical-grade aesthetics into a single, integrated practice—because she's never believed your body should be treated in disconnected pieces.

Nadine • Jul 2, 2026
Chose PRF therapy for knee pain from arthritis. Ecstatic to walk normally within about 3 days. No longer in pain and back to my normal activities.
Elizabeth Wemhoff • Jul 2, 2026
First time PRF facial and Savannah was wonderful — answered all my questions and walked me through everything. Definitely coming back.
Kevin Tang • Jul 2, 2026
Been coming here consistently for about a year for massage therapy with Sam. Significant impact on how I go about my daily life. Heavy lifting 6-7 days a week is much easier.
