Dr. Helmendach is a chiropractor who is currently serving patients at her private practice, Charlotte Spine and Pain Relief Center, located in Mint Hill, North Carolina. “When you’re involved in an accident, your stress level goes through the roof.  There’s the physical stress, the emotional stress, and the mental stress of it all. My goal here at Charlotte Spine & Pain Relief Center is to cut your stress level so your body can heal, naturally, without drugs or surgery” as stated by Dr. Helmendach. 

Dr. Helmendach has over 25 years of experience in chiropractic care. She earned her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the National University of Health Sciences in 1991.

Several things make Dr. Helmendach unique as a person and as a professional. As a teenager, she learned the importance of self-discipline. She was heavily involved in martial arts training and reached the rank of third degree black belt in the Korean martial art known as Tae Kwon Do. She actually competed in Madison Square Garden, New York City. This self discipline served her well in guiding her in her studies to become a Doctor of Chiropractic.

Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that mainly deals with the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. A chiropractor uses spinal adjustments, manipulation and other techniques to manage patients’ health concerns, such as neck pain and back pain. They aim to improve patients’ functionality and quality of life by properly aligning the body’s musculoskeletal structure and enabling the body to heal itself without medication or surgery.
