THE PRACTICE
The Doctor
Dr. James Rehkopf
Dr. James is a native of New Orleans. He attended LSU where he earned a degree in Kinesiology and worked as a Student Athletic Trainer and Strength Coach for the LSU Football Team. He was also the captain of the LSU Rugby Team. While benefiting first hand from chiropractic care for a rugby injury, he began researching chiropractic and decided to pursue it as a profession. Dr. James earned his 4 year Doctorate degree in Atlanta. He then decided to move back home and open Life Chiropractic with the mission of "Increasing the health potential in the New Orleans area."
The Offices
Life Chiropractic has two locations: Gretna and Metairie. Both offices are equipped to treat most musculoskeletal and spine related problems. Our chiropractic tables allow us to adjust many different types of clients from newborn babies, pregnant mothers and the elderly and our Flexion/Distraction table is specifically used for serious back injuries such as bulging or herniated discs. We offer dry needling to treat a wide range of soft tissue dysfunction such as headaches, TMJ disorder, neck pain, and back pain to name a few. Each office is also equipped with electro-stimulation and mechanical traction. The Metairie location offers three massage therapists with the option of multiple massage techniques.
