Travis Cross D.C.
Dr. Travis Cross is a certified Cox Technic practitioner with a decade of experience working with spinal disc related conditions. Dr. Cross has an undergraduate degree in exercise physiology and is board certified in Georgia to practice chiropractic and physiotherapy.
Dr. Cross is also board certified by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners. With over 20 years experience, Dr. Cross has found a unique balance of chiropractic, specifically Cox Flexion/Distraction, and physiotherapy that is producing very positive results for his patients who typically exhibit the most serious symptoms. Dr. Cross has continued his intense study of spinal disc degenerative conditions and has added the latest Cox 8 table to the clinic in order to provide the best possible Chiropractic adjustment. Dr. Cross also has been working as a hands on workshop instructor teaching other Chiropractors from around the southeast the proper protocols and application of the Cox Flexion/Distraction adjustment.
Dr. Cross is also one of the few Chiropractors in the southeast with the Impulse iQ Certification. The certification process involved extensive postgraduate study as well as written and practical examinations. Impulse iQ by Neuromechanical Innovations is an Adjusting Instrument that is powered by electricity. Impulse IQ has patented autosense technology that senses when mobility is maximized, then ceases the adjustment and provides feedback of the patient's response to the adjustment through audible beeps. When applied to the dysfunctional area (joint or muscle), the instrument thrusts at the ideal frequency to maximize motion, while changing frequencies in real time congruently as motion improves. The Impulse IQ is a more gentle adjusting approach while operating efficiently.
Dr. Cross is a member of the Georgia Chiropractic Association and Graduated from Bowling Green State University in Ohio with a degree in Exercise Physiology. He then attended Life University in Marietta, Georgia and has practiced in the Sandy Springs area since graduation in 1998.
Dr. Cross in an avid cyclist and has been competing in road and mountain biking events for over 20 years.
