Wanting to further his education he then completed his Master of Science in Bacterial Genetics from Purdue in 1975. He then attended Life Chiropractic College where de graduated with his Doctor of Chiropractic Degree in 1985, giving him over three decades of experience in his field. Dr. Gunter started his private practice in 1986 in Hickory Flat, GA before relocating Healworks to Atlanta, GA. In Hickory Flat the primary concern was low cost and dealing with insurance companies, but in Atlanta the main focus was how rapidly they could recover. It was this shift of focus that led to the creation of the Healing Experience. In Atlanta, time was money and no one had the time to be partially functional for weeks on end. Using the Healing Experience protocol, most patients could be pain free in one to two visits and virtually recovered in five visits or less. Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure—mainly the spine—and its functioning. Although practitioners may use a variety of treatment approaches, they primarily perform adjustments (manipulations) to the spine or other parts of the body with the goal of correcting alignment problems, alleviating pain, improving function, and supporting the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
