Hi, I'm Sten Ekberg, a doctor of chiropractic who specialize in getting people better quickly by addressing the source of the problem.If you have had an accident or if you have been physically damaged (cuts, fractures, bleeding etc.) the damage needs to be repaired. Then you need to go to the emergency room. Our health care system excels at that type of emergency intervention.
But in virtually all other cases, where you have a chronic problem or a pain that just gradually developed,(chronic pain, arthritis, diabetes, asthma, heart disease, cancer etc) the problem is one of functional imbalance.
The only way to change a functional imbalance is to first figure out what caused it, and stop doing that, and secondly to direct the therapy specifically towards reversing the damage that has been done to the body's functional systems.
What we also need to keep in mind is that all function in the body is regulated in some way by the brain and the central nervous system. Therefore if you have a functional imbalance in your body, there is always an imbalance at the level of the brain as well.
Chiropractors affect the brain. The more specifically the doctor can observe the brain function or the indirect results of brain function, the more he or she will be able to help you get better.
Call now if you have any questions or if you would like to schedule an appointment.
We take your health very seriously.
Dr. Sten Ekberg

Services
We look at symptoms and specific body parts, but instead of focusing on them we focus on all of you as a whole person, not just a collection of body parts. We use a holistic approach that emphasizes and teaches patients to take responsibility for their own health, and in so doing is: cost-effective in treating both acute and chronic illness; therapeutic in preventing and treating chronic disease; essential in creating optimal health.
Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Wellness For Life Chiropractic emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center.
Welcome to the Wellness For Life Chiropractic, a Cumming Chiropractic, Nutrition, and Wellness patient center! We want to help you become the naturally healthy person you were made to be. In this section, you will find links to valuable health and chiropractic information, forms and instructions. Our goal is your complete satisfaction and to help you achieve the best health possible.
You may also request an appointment with Massage Therapist. We want to help you have a better and healthier live as soon as possible. We respect your time and will do our very best to accommodate your busy schedule. If you are in immediate pain and need to speak to someone right away please call us at 678-638-0898.

Wellness For Life Chiropractic - Dr. Sten Ekberg
Doctor / Owner
Dr. Ekberg is a board certified Doctor of Chiropractic, serving the Cumming community, who graduated Magna Cum Laude from Life University. He is certified in Body Restoration Technique (BRT), and he was a board eligible Chiropractic Neurologist after only 2 years of post graduate studies.
Dr. Sten Ekberg has been freeing people from pain in the clinic in Cumming, GA. As a Chiropractor with experience, Dr. Ekberg is committed to promoting optimal health and well being of patients. Dr. Ekberg believes that the body is an eco-system with a built-in tendency for homeostasis and health. An eco-system cannot be forced into "compliance" which explains why drugs are never a long-term solution. The body will heal itself if the interference is removed and the deficiency is corrected.
Dr. Ekberg is a former NCAA, div 1 champion and 1992 Olympic decathlete in track and field who has always been interested in finding better ways to do things. After his athletic career he has devoted the last 15 years to finding out how to get closer to the potential of the body and mind. He draws on his vast experience in health and performance to help others enhance their health.
Dr. Ekberg uses a "whole person approach". This approach to wellness means looking for underlying causes of any disturbance or disruption (which may or may not be causing symptoms at the time) and make whatever interventions and lifestyle adjustments that would optimize the conditions for normal function. Using this unique approach, Dr. Ekberg is able to help you to accelerate and/or maintain your journey to good health. His mission is to enhance lives by teaching anyone who wants to learn what health really is and how you can take responsibility for the miraculous Mind-Body-Spirit that is YOU.

The only thing that keeps me from visiting is that I live outside the US. I watch your videos almost daily. You've opened up my eyes on how the body functions and how things in our body are related. Amazing insight, knowledge and approach. You've even gotten me interested in neurology. It's driving my husband insane! I genuinely believe you should be part of the educational system in schools.
Wish I'd known all of this earlier in my life, I would've had a different approach raising my kids. I've started on a Keto/IF lifestyle 3 months ago and I've never felt better! Can't thank you enough

Thank you for posting videos on YouTube! I found you over a week ago and watch your videos daily! I am retired, on a Keto diet and between my family doctor and your advice, I have been able to continue losing weight with the commitment of making it a lifestyle change! You explain things so anyone can understand it!

I've started visiting Dr. Ekberg to improve my overall health. Following Dr. Ekberg's videos and his in-depth knowledge during office visits, I was able improve my overall health validated with full panel blood tests. It's refreshing there are still Dr's out there who truly care about their patients health. Dr. Ekberg is one of those people!

I sought Dr. Ekberg's advice for keto diet, general health, and lifestyle issues. I was thoroughly impressed with Dr. Ekberg's knowledge, level of care, and advice. Dr. Ekberg took the time to review my diet and bloodwork, providing very sound advice and helping me find a path forward. Because I had elevated cholesterol numbers from being on the keto diet, Dr. Ekberg suggested a Coronary artery calcium (CAC) test.
My results came back with "0" across the board, indicating that I have no arteriosclerosis, which validates my diet and lifestyle choices are healthy. I cannot recommend Dr. Ekberg enough to anyone looking to get healthy or stay healthy and understand their bodies.

I have been seeing Dr. Ekberg at Wellness For Life for about a month now. I had a skin issues, anxiety, sleep issues, Thyroid problems and finally feeling much better. I did try to get healthy on my own for about 2 years but never had the results close to what I have after only one month here. Thank you!

I am very pleased with my care from Dr Ekberg. I am doing the nutritional response testing, and am already seeing positive changes with anxiety. My digestive health is improving, and I am seeing that it's possible to reach my goal weight. This holistic approach is what I was looking for to help balance my body and catapult me forward on my health journey. The office is very nice and the staff is friendly and helpful.

I live overseas and I watch Dr. Ekberg's lectures on YouTube. My life has completely changed in just 5 weeks. Dr. Ekberg explains bodily processes in interesting detail and in such a way that anyone could understand. How can we make the necessary changes for good if we don't understand the how and why? Dr. Ekberg's channel is a gift to the world and I thank him for his devotion to the health of his fellow man. If I lived in the US I would make an appointment. America is so blessed to have you! Thanks for sharing your knowledge on YouTube. It means the world to so many.

Dr Ekberg is the BEST Chiroprator ever. I had an accident 20 years ago I did not have any strength on the left side, after just 2 sessions my left side has improved 1000%. I feel much more younger, it's like he gave me back 20 years! I'm also doing the nutritional program and feel more energetic, optimistic and happy. If you don't feel well and looking for answers make an appointment w Dr Ekberg.

I have been coming to Dr. Ekberg for about 6 months now. In that time, he has helped me with numbness and rashes. I had a rash from exposure to poison ivy that lasted for over three months. He diagnosed it as a parasite and after taking the supplements for three days the rash is completely gone! I can't thank him and his staff enough. They not only help me, but three of my daughters as well.

Wellness for Life isnt just a simple adjustment and go. Its a lifestyle. They want to make sure that you feel good, but also learn how to maintain feeling good. Seminars are available on more information about ways to better your health and life. The problems i had were insomnia, back pain, shoulder pain, and neck pains. Ive had these issues for several years and I wasn't sure how to "fix" myself.
The doctor's and staff made me feel welcomed. They were knowledgeable and very kind. They explained their process and came up with a program that would help with my issues. 2 months later, I am feeling the best ive ever felt. I can sleep for more than 5 hours, I no longer have intense back and shoulder pain. I came into this program a knotted up ball of yarn and came out feeling better than ever. Thank you wellness for life for giving me my life back!

It's easy to be skeptical of a "different" approach to your health with holistic chiropractic, but going to Wellness for Life never ceases to amaze me! I feel like I have more control over my health and the health of my children in ways that I never feel with an average doctor visit. The holistic approach truly "listens" to our bodies and gets to the source of the symptoms, not just trying to fix the symptom.
Time after time I will come to Wellness and present a random symptom happening with one of us. And time after time, after following the treatment, the symptoms will begin to go away as the source of the issue is taken care of. I wish more people would try holistic chiropractic and take control of their health!

If it let me give y’all stars you’d have 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have nothing but good things to say. Dr. Ekberg and Dr. Smith make a great team and the rest of the staff here is amazing. They truly care about wellness and making sure your body works as a whole again! You may think it sounds strange or weird as a method, but it makes sense if you just think about it.
Come to a seminar! The supplements and adjustments have made a huge difference for me. I’ve struggled with anxiety and neck pain and plantar fasciitis for months (anxiety for years) and after I got off my medication for anxiety I started working on my wellness, but my neck pain and foot pain were a huge obstacle. My neck pain is nothing like it used to be, it is rare not constant, and I no longer sleep with my foot brace for my plantar fasciitis.
For the first time in a long time I’m ready to keep going and keep on my journey to get back to natural and lose this weight that pills put on me (100lbs in about 6mo due to Zoloft).
I’m excited to get the nutrition aspect going as the next part of my journey.

I am a student at college. Sitting in class all day and evening studies had left me with overall body stiffness and aches. It would wake me up at night. Getting ready for school in the morning was tough because of the stress from inadequate sleep and muscle tension. I tried stretching and taking ibuprofen but neither worked. It was becoming difficult to sit through classes and my concentration was suffering.
I started hearing positive things about Dr. Ekberg's Wellness For Life in Cumming, Ga., so I made an appointment. It's one of the best things I've ever done for myself. My first visit virtually eliminated all of my joint stiffness. When I returned, I decided to add a therapeutic massage and the combined results were remarkable. My concentration has improved and my energy level has risen.
I have been sleeping better than ever. I highly recommend Dr. Ekberg's Wellness For Life for everyone. His seminars are informative and his staff is amazing!! They truly care about your overall health inside and out.
