About

Our Philosophy

Committed to Excellence

At Atlas Spine & Wellness Care, we believe in a world where health is a daily practice rather than a pursuit and where individuals are empowered to discover their natural healing potential.

Our practice aims to provide health and wellness services in tune with the body’s natural healing power in a space conducive to healing and peace.

We want our patients to understand that health is a lifelong journey; it’s not something that’s accomplished with a pill or surgery or a single chiropractic adjustment. Our goal is to build long-term relationships and offer long-term solutions.

Testimonials

I am also a chiropractor and I have had awful issues with tinnitus, headaches, and sometimes ear infections (when it was really bad). Regular chiropractic seemed to make these issues waaay worse. Dr. (Felix) Periard helped me get rid of the headaches completely and significantly reduced my tinnitus in just a couple of visits! I’d highly recommend Atlas Spine and Wellness Care to anyone and everyone!

Our Story

Dr. Felix and Dr. Erica both attended Palmer College of Chiropractic and now specialize in orthogonal chiropractic care. Dr. Felix is completing his certification in upper cervical work through the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association. They visited the Low Country in 2018 and loved the area and its proximity to the healing powers of the ocean. They opened their practice in 2021.

Since meeting in chiropractic college, Dr. Felix and Dr. Erica long considered opening a practice together. They are thrilled to have made this dream a reality, and love being a trusted part of the community.

Dr. Felix Périard is a chiropractor passionate about empowering patients to trust their body’s innate healing power. Growing up in Montreal, his own health challenges inspired his path to chiropractic care. Now specializing in NUCCA upper cervical adjustments, Dr. Felix blends gentle, precise techniques with an outdoorsy, adventurous spirit that reflects his love for nature and connection.

Dr. Erica Périard is a chiropractor and wellness advocate who believes that the body is more than capable of healing itself, when given the right tools. Dr. Erica is inspired by the nervous system’s ability to affect the entire body and uses chiropractic as a channel to help her patients heal and thrive.

Our Approach

Upper cervical adjustments utilize a specialized set of X-rays that allow us to precisely target very gentle adjustments to the very top vertebra of the spine. People are surprised that such a light touch can make such a big change in their health and function. We take post-adjustment X-rays so you can see objectively that your alignment has been corrected.
