Meet the Doctor

Dr. Gary Johns

Dr. Gary M. Johns is an Atlanta native who began practicing chiropractic in Atlanta in 1986. He began by working in three clinics under three different mentors. In 1987 he opened his own practice, Atlanta Health Service Inc., where he was the CEO of the medical and chiropractic facility from1986-2000.

1995 Dr. Johns opened his second facility, in Jackson, Georgia, Chiropractic Back Alignment. The clinic was a custom designed eighteen wheeler specifically for the trucking industry. He sold that successful practice in 1998.

After 18 years of successfully practicing in Atlanta, Dr. Johns retired and moved to the north Georgia Mountains with his family. Later, as he was attending his continued education classes became inspired by the cutting edge approach to wellness through the training of Dr. John Brimhall. He saw how patient’s health and well-being were being dramatically improved through a variety of new techniques.

After much thought and prayerful consideration, Dr. Johns opened his first location for a wellness center inside the Fitness Center of Big Canoe Resort. For the first time, he began a wellness program to include the correction of six possible areas of interferences to the body. These areas include structure, nutrition, electromagnetic radiation, emotions, allergic sensitivity and detoxification. In addition, an exciting new piece of equipment had recently been approved by the FDA for pain reduction, the digital laser. The results were astounding. Patients were dramatically improving and wellness goals were being reached in a shorter period of time. These exciting results gave patients the opportunity to achieve a higher level of health and well-being.

Next, Dr. Johns began lecturing about the use of the digital laser and sickness prevention to groups and doctors, which led to consulting with doctors on how to incorporate wellness and prevention into their practices.

Dr. Johns was beginning to realize a new dream as he saw dramatic results in correction of carpel tunnel problems, frozen shoulders and lumbar disc conditions and a host of other medical maladies. In addition, he saw third degree burns diminish overnight with no pain, as well as reduced recovery time in accidents and trauma. Through incorporating the release of emotional blocks and the correction of nerve interference and balancing nutrition, overall wellness for the patient was reached much faster and with greater results. He now had the vision to take the results into the corporate world to educate companies and executives on how to reduce their bottom line by approaching well care and sickness prevention through a natural approach instead of continuing to throw money into sick care through the escalating cost of insurance.

Dr. Johns’ purpose for FirstCorp Wellness was to create an environment of prevention and wellness in corporate America. He has teamed up with a medical director who has consulted with numerous Fortune 500 companies. Also, he has assembled a team of medical personnel, body trainers, wellness and life coaches to serve executives and companies to reach a higher standard of overall wellness individually and corporately. FirstCorp Wellness is conveniently located in the Northwest quadrant of Atlanta inside the perimeter near I-75 and 285.
