Meet Dr. Vanessa Gale
Healthcare Provider, Coach, and Guide
Dr. Vanessa brings a unique blend of professional expertise and personal experience to Holistic Alignment Strategies. As a licensed chiropractor specializing in NetworkSpinal Care, she approaches health from a perspective that traditional medical practitioners often overlook.
A Personal Healing Journey
Dr. Vanessa’s path to NetworkSpinal Care began during her own health crisis. Halfway through chiropractic school at Life University, she sustained a serious back injury while competitive powerlifting. Despite access to numerous treatment approaches, she found no relief until discovering NetworkSpinal Care. The emotional release she experienced during her first entrainment transformed not just her physical pain but her entire approach to healthcare. This profound personal experience drives her passion for sharing these techniques with others.
Education and Background
With a foundation in dance from Marymount Manhattan College, Dr. Vanessa brings a deep understanding of movement and body awareness to her practice. She graduated from Life University in Marietta, Georgia in March 2017 and has spent the past eight years refining her skills in NetworkSpinal Care. Beyond her formal chiropractic education, Dr. Vanessa pursued extensive additional training in NetworkSpinal Care techniques and Somato Respiratory Integration, studying with Dr. Donald Epstein, the developer of the technique, and other world-renowned practitioners to master these specialized approaches.
Life Beyond the Practice
As a homeschooling mother, Dr. Vanessa intimately understands the challenges many of her practice members face in balancing multiple responsibilities. Living in West Cobb with her daughter and partner—a world champion competitive powerlifter—she applies her expertise in chiropractic, movement, and nervous system optimization to support their strength, recovery, and overall well-being. Together, they turn international competitions into educational family adventures, reinforcing the importance of body awareness, resilience, and peak performance. This real-life experience allows Dr. Vanessa to authentically connect with practice members who are juggling family life, athletic goals, and personal well-being, providing them with the same holistic strategies she uses to keep her own family strong, healthy, and thriving.
