CCSP · ATC · CSCS · DNS — A chiropractor whose credentials match her commitment to getting people well.
Dr. Melissa Briscoe Lamarche is a chiropractor in Marietta, GA with advanced training and certification in sports rehabilitation, injury prevention, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), and performance care. As a CSCS, ATC, CCSP, and DNS practitioner, she specializes in helping active adults and athletes recover from injury, prevent future problems, and return to full function.
What sets Dr. Lamarche apart isn't just her credentials — it's how she applies them. Most chiropractic care focuses on where it hurts. Dr. Lamarche starts by asking why. Every new patient receives a comprehensive 60–90 minute evaluation before any treatment begins, because getting the diagnosis right is the foundation of everything that follows.
Her background as a Certified Athletic Trainer and Strength & Conditioning Specialist means she thinks like a coach as much as a clinician. She works with complex cases — patients who have seen multiple providers without improvement, those navigating post-surgical recovery, and athletes who need to perform, not just feel better.
She has particular expertise in cervical spine and upper thoracic care, pelvic floor dysfunction and diastasis recti, and cases involving long-standing pain patterns that have not responded to conventional treatment. DNS, which she uses alongside chiropractic adjustments and targeted exercise therapy, allows her to address dysfunction at the neurological level — restoring the stabilization patterns that pain and injury disrupt.
After 15+ years serving the Marietta community, Dr. Lamarche's practice remains by appointment only, intentionally sized to deliver the depth of care each patient deserves.
Including the cervical spine and areas many practitioners avoid — delivered with precision after thorough assessment.
Understanding how you move — not just where you hurt — is the foundation of effective care.
Targeted exercise and neurological retraining that makes results last — not just temporary relief.
Dr. Lamarche's Marietta practice reflects her philosophy — it is fully equipped for both chiropractic care and rehabilitation, with multiple treatment tables, a DNS-dedicated exercise area, and a complete library of therapeutic tools.
The practice is self-pay, which removes the constraints of insurance protocols and allows for the kind of thorough, unhurried care that produces lasting results. New patient appointments are by appointment only.
Your first visit is a comprehensive evaluation — no rushed intake, no assembly-line care. Just a real conversation and a plan built around you.
