Meet Dr. Aletha Chappelear

Early Healthcare Background

Dr. Aletha’s path in natural health care began in 2001 as a Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist. Through her early work in massage, she saw how profoundly the body could respond when given the chance to release stored tension and stress. These experiences gave her a deep respect for the body’s wisdom and laid the foundation for a career dedicated to holistic healing.

Becoming a Chiropractor

In 2008, Dr. Aletha graduated cum laude from Life University in Marietta, GA, where she earned recognition for Clinical Excellence and was honored as a Light Bearer for Integrative Change, awards that reflect both her skill and her dedication to serving others. With more than 25 years in natural health care and over 17 years in chiropractic practice, she has cared for patients of all ages, from newborns to seniors.

Her specialties include advanced studies in Bio-Geometric Integration and gentle chiropractic adjusting techniques such as Activator Methods, LightForce Specific, Thompson Drop Table, Full Spine Diversified, Extremities, and Sacro Occipital Technique. Advanced studies in Sports Health Sciences at Life University have provided additional skills for adjusting athletes of all skill levels from novice to elite professionals. Dr. Aletha is passionate about continually expanding her knowledge as chiropractic research evolves, ensuring her patients receive the very best in holistic, evidence-informed care.

Healing Philosophy

For Dr. Aletha, chiropractic care is about more than simply addressing pain. She believes in treating the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. Guided by the vitalistic philosophy that “the power that made the body heals the body”, she works alongside each participant as a partner in their health journey.

Outside the Practice

Beyond the office, Dr. Aletha enjoys a full and vibrant life with her partner Zack of 16 years, a senior "tripod" pitbull Lola, and 7 year old cat Sam. She is a proud supporter of Atlanta United FC, loves hiking at Kennesaw Mountain, Stone Mountain, and Westside Park, and enjoys playing disc golf. Dr. A has a "green thumb" for many varieties of orchids and fills both home and office with a variety green plants, as well as beautiful rocks, crystals, and natural gemstones. She’s also known among friends and family for her creativity in the kitchen, especially her healthy meals and legendary cheesecake.

Music and the arts are another source of joy. Dr. Aletha has sung the National Anthem at five professional sporting events across Atlanta, blending her passion for wellness with her love for community and performance. These personal passions keep her grounded, energized, and deeply connected to the people she serves.
