Dr. Oleksandr Povazhnyak - D.C., MSC, C.PHYS, LMT

Dr. Alex Povazhnyak brings a unique and well-rounded background in chiropractic care, rehabilitation, biochemistry, and massage therapy to the Active Chiropractic Care team.

He earned his Master of Science in Biochemistry from Lviv Polytechnic National University and his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Texas Chiropractic College. His continued training includes Board Certification in Chiropractic Physiotherapy, along with extensive experience in rehabilitation, soft-tissue therapy, and a variety of chiropractic techniques including Diversified, Thompson, Gonstead, Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP), Sacro-Occipital Technique, Torque Release, and the FAKTR Rehabilitation System.

What Dr. Alex enjoys most is bringing all of these different areas together to help each patient as an individual. Whether someone is recovering from an injury, dealing with chronic aches and pains, or simply wants to move and feel better, his goal is to help patients get back to doing the things they love.

His approach fits naturally with our Active D.R.E.A.M. philosophy — Diet, Recovery, Exercise, Alignment, and Mental Health. Rather than focusing only on where it hurts, Dr. Alex looks at the bigger picture and helps patients build healthier movement, better function, and habits that support a more active lifestyle.

From children and expecting mothers to athletes and older adults, Dr. Alex enjoys working with patients at every stage of life and helping them move better, feel better, and stay active.
