Dr. Johnson is a skilled and well-respected chiropractor providing diverse and state-of-the-art care to a community of patients here in Cashiers. As the daughter of a chiropractic physician, Dr. Resa credits her own health and strong commitment to her patients healing to her father. After receiving an undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland and a doctorate degree of chiropractic and acupuncture from the National College of Chiropractic, Lombard, IL, Dr. Johnson and her husband started their careers in Cooper City, FL. During this time, she had the honor and opportunity of serving as the chiropractor for the Miami City Ballet and as the house chiropractic physician for the Ft. Lauderdale Center for the Performing Arts.
With a strong desire and dedication to offer her patients the safest, most effective, and most advanced treatments available, over her 40 year career, Dr. Resa has continued to expand her knowledge of chiropractic care, maintaining active memberships in many organizations and becoming board certified as a Diplomate in Clinical Nutrition and the Graston Technique for myofascial pain syndromes.
Dr. Johnson’s commitment to natural healthy living extends beyond her profession as she and her husband infused their 3 children with an understanding and appreciation for natural healing. Dr. Johnson is extremely proud of the fact that 2 of their sons have gone on to create Genexa, an Atlanta-based, first of its kind company to offer a clean and organic, non-GMO line of over-the-counter medications.
For twenty-five years, Dr. Resa has incorporated the Functional Medicine approach to patient care taking the time to develop an in-depth understanding of each patient’s unique medical needs including environmental and lifestyle factors that influence longevity and chronic disease. Functional medicine enables physicians to practice proactive, predictive, personalized medicine and empowers patients to act as advocates for their own health. Dr. Johnson specializes in the treatment of acute and chronic pain issues, including pregnancy related back pain, scoliosis, shoulder and elbow pain, neck pain, upper and lower back pain, knee pain, foot and ankle pain, chronic migraines and tension headaches.
