Doctor of Chiropractic
James W. Tickel, DC is a second-generation Doctor of Chiropractic and a graduate of Life University in Atlanta, GA. Celebrating 20 years in practice next year, he has dedicated his career to helping people unlock the body’s innate ability to heal—physically, emotionally, and energetically. As one of seven chiropractors in his family, Dr. Tickel grew up deeply immersed in vitalistic principles, nervous-system based healing, and whole-body wellness. Throughout his career, Dr. Tickel has participated in chiropractic medical mission trips around the world—including Bulgaria—bringing care to underserved communities and witnessing firsthand how powerful the body’s healing potential can be when fully supported. Raised by two chiropractor parents, he learned early that health is a triune of mind, body, and spirit. His parents often reminded him that chiropractic isn’t just about adjusting the bones—it’s also about adjusting the “bone-head,” helping people shift mental and emotional patterns that hold them back. They taught him that physical pain often becomes the doorway to deeper healing and self-awareness. This philosophy shapes Dr. Tickel’s work today. He blends structural chiropractic, upper cervical techniques, nervous-system regulation, and trauma-informed methods to help patients reconnect with their body’s innate wisdom. One of his guiding mantras is: “I am a healer, because I am healing.” Dr. Tickel believes that healing is always an inside job, and his mission is to empower patients to discover that the healer is within—not outside of them. At every visit, he offers practical tools, insights, and encouragement to help people move toward long-term, transformative wellness. In 2025, Dr. Tickel and his family relocated to Atlanta, Georgia, where he continues his work with a renewed focus on nervous-system balance, structural integration, and emotional healing. He lives and teaches by a simple philosophy: a well-balanced life—rich in movement, nourishment, gratitude, and presence—is the foundation of true health. Outside the office, Dr. Tickel is a devoted husband and father of three. When he finds “free” time (a flexible concept with three kids), he enjoys exploring Atlanta’s food scene with his wife, backcountry camping, crafting homemade wine in his garage, and cooking almost anything over an open fire.

Dr. Tickel is a lifesaver! I’ve seen many chiropractors in Charlottesville and none have even come close to providing the relief from chronic aches and pains that Dr. Tickel has been able to achieve with me. I’ve recommended three other people who are now also very happy clients. Don’t go anywhere else, he’s the best!!!
Christine Best • Aug 31, 2026
Thank you so much! Dr tickel fit me in on the same day as a desperate, overdue pregnant mama. He was so thorough and so kind. I felt immediately better following his adjustment and could just tell the baby seemed aligned better. Maybe it’s coincidence but I went into labor less than 12 hours later and had a super fast birth!
Gryphon Corpus • Aug 31, 2026
Dr. Tickel is the best! I’ve seen many chiropractors, and truly, he’s helped me by far the most. Plus he’s just a great guy, funny and huge hearted. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Amazing. Thank you for helping me! Highly recommended!- Carla Shifflett from Posture Studio

I used to be wary and skeptical of chiropractors but that all changed after meeting Dr. Tickel. I suffered for years with chronic neck and back pain. When the pain would get so bad I couldn’t work, sleep, drive, etc... I’d go for a massage. I’d always feel more relaxed after, but the pain was still present. This year I reached a breaking point with my neck pain and decided to give seeing a chiropractor a shot. I thought “What do I have to lose?!”. After much research, I decided Dr. Tickel was the doctor I’d let take a crack at my chronic pain. I’m now a believer. I no longer have debilitating, chronic pain. I trust Dr. Tickel so much, I have him treat my 12 year old daughter. Her scoliosis has improved and she no longer has chronic neck cracking/popping and pain. Not only can we feel results, we can see them in the X-rays. I cannot say enough nice things about Dr. Tickel. He’s made my health and my daughter’s health a priority, even on his days off.
