Thrive Integrative Medicine: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Very professional and a great job !!
Fantastic experience: Anthony gave me the best massage I’ve ever had in my 44 years. He is so knowledgeable and explains what is happening with your body.
Fantastic experience: Because of Anthony’s extensive knowledge of anatomy, massage techniques, and specific body exercises, he zeroed in immediately on my weak area and gave immediate relief. I’ll definitely need more sessions, but even after just one visit, I feel so much better. Very impressive!
Wow! Thank you for sharing your experience. This is what we love to hear!
Fantastic experience: Anthony is an amazing practitioner. Kind, intuitive, knowledgeable. He has spent years honing his craft and it shows. After each session, I leave feeling more empowered and at ease in my body. Thank you Anthony!
You are so right Kimberly. We are so honored to have Anthony on our team. Thank you for shining the light on him.

That's what we want to hear. Thank you for sharing!!
Fantastic experience: I’ve seen Allison twice and couldn’t be happier with the results. Both times I’ve gotten relief in my complaints and in other areas I didn’t even realize. Highly recommend especially during pregnancy!
This is wonderful to hear. Thank you for such a great review.

Thank you Christeen.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Kennamer and her staff were knowledgable, friendly, and met me where I was at both physically and mentally. I walked away feeling light hearted and healed.
We are so pleased that you had a good experience. Thank you so much for the review!

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We look forward to serving you in the near future.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allison is just a gift. Her care, knowledge, and wisdom have made me a regular client of hers for years. I recommend her to everyone whose body needs help, especially women. Thank you Dr. Allison for just simply being the best!
Thank you so much!! It's been a pleasure serving you and we look forward to continuing to do so.
Fantastic experience: Loved Allison and loved THRIVE. I had been there previously at that location (when the practice had a differet name) seeing Nancy Sencil as an acupuncturist. And it was a big bonus to discover that my friend Sondra works there now!
Thank you!! We are so grateful for you.
Fantastic experience: I'm recovering from a car accident. Carmen's work on my neck, shoulders, and back loosened things up enough for me to enjoy the rest of my day. I've also received a massage from Madison, who was also excellent. Tony is my go to acupuncture guy as well. Honestly, you can't go wrong with Thrive.
This is what we want to hear!! Thank you so much for your review.
Fantastic experience: Great first ever chiro experience! the office is very comfortable and homey. Allison was diligent, gentle. She took the time to discuss my concerns and make sure I was comfortable. I look forward to my future appointments!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allison was gentle, thorough, and very considerate over the pain that brought me to her. I felt comfortable in her capable hands. She helped me significantly. Her staff was amazing too.
Thank you for your review. We look forward to continuing to serve you!
Fantastic experience: Love the atmosphere and ambiance at Thrive. Carmen is the best and very knowledgeable.
Thank you for shouting out Carmen directly. She's absolutely fabulous at what she does and we are so honored to have her on our team.
Fantastic experience: Madison was awesome! I had an incredible massage! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Tony is extremely knowledgeable and demonstrates a very caring, personalized approach to treatment. I would highly recommend Tony and his services to those who care about their health and wellbeing!
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful first appointment with Allison. She was very thorough and knowledgeable to address and begin treating the problem I am having. She also squeezed me in to see me on a fully booked schedule.
Fantastic experience: Started going to Thrive Integrative Medicine in 2017. They offer many different holistic treatments and they are very good at their craft. I went to them with multiple muscle and joint issues because traditional medicine was just that, try this pill or try this pill in combination with more pills. They stood by me through my dark years and today through chiropractic manipulation and very conservative RA medicine I am able to at least enjoy life.
Fantastic experience: Always a great chiropractic visit!
Fantastic experience: I love the hospitality and the service. The staff is great and very professional. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: The entire staff are kind of like family at this point. Not to mention the improvement I’ve experienced with my allergies, and the general mom aches and pains, and how well she is with both of my kids.
Fantastic experience: Exellent professional care.
Fantastic experience: Leah is amazing! Easy to talk to and took the time to explain the process, plus she REALLY helped with my shoulder pain. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Awesome place! Staff is always helpful and Tony is always great! I really appreciate the entire experience every time
Fantastic experience: Everyone I’ve encountered this far w Thrive has been wonderful and super accommodating. Dr Allison was super thorough and took the time to listen to all of my concerns and come up w a plan to help treat them. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Getting full strength back after 'breaking my back'.
Fantastic experience: Ashley K was wonderful. I’m currently going through IVF and came in looking for acupuncture as an added benefit leading into our embryo transfer and hearing her experience and advice / background was wonderfully reassuring. There are so many things within this journey that are outside of our control and having people who are knowledgeable and helpful in that process make it easier. My session was wonderful and I’ll be seeing her weekly through our first trimester fingers crossed
Fantastic experience: Tony listened intently to my issues and concerns and offered solutions. He was upfront with a plan of action to relieve my pain and explained what I should expect for my first time receiving acupuncture.
Fantastic experience: Leah is a healer. I highly, highly recommend her.
Positive experience: Very relaxing experience and very nice staff.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Kennamer is efficient, professional and kind
Fantastic experience: A totally pleasant and relaxing experience.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Jana for over a year now. I look forward to every visit. She has helped me in so many ways. She is so very patient and present. I highly recommend her to any and everyone.
Fantastic experience: Always so nice and helpful! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Devon was amazing! I felt much better after my first session and will be going back!
Fantastic experience: This was my second visit. Tony Galis was very detailed & thorough once again and listened to my new issues at hand. He formulated a plan and performed 2nd treatment right away. Once again NO PAIN and actually relaxing. Look forward to my next visit
Fantastic experience: Very calming and welcoming environment. Staff were helpful and kind. Dr. Kennamer knows her stuff and was very helpful on my journey of healing.
Fantastic experience: Been seeing Allison for years. Worth a 45 minute drive now that I've moved outside of Athens. Also add rolphing with Leah to your visits if possible. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Very Professional experience.
Fantastic experience: Great place to get acupuncture.
Fantastic experience: Acupuncture is really helping my 80 year old mother. She has had chronic back and side pain for years and this is the only treatment that has helped. Wish we had discovered sooner.
Fantastic experience: Very pleasant and professional atmosphere!!!
Fantastic experience: Ashley was very professional and efficient. Made me feel at ease and answer all my questions. I highly recommend her practice.
Fantastic experience: Feeling much better today. Lower back pain much improved by Dr. Kennemar's treatments!
Fantastic experience: Devon did an excellent job! Can't wait for my next appointment.
Fantastic experience: I can’t rave enough about this practice. They take great care of my physical needs (I have an 30-year history of degenerative disc disease and pain issues), and I feel deeply connected with the staff as human beings as well. They feel like family, and they take care of me like family.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Jordan spent a lot of time with me for the first appointment and ask some really significant questions so she would know exactly what to work on. She was thorough, pleasant and had great hands. I highly recommend her.
Fantastic experience: Jana was great. She even "spun the acupuncture needles" upon my request from previous visits to other practices. She will have to explain, but spinning the needles before removal gave me more bang of my buck. I will return to Thrive and thoroughly enjoyed my first visit there today.
Fantastic experience: Great acupuncture experience!
Fantastic experience: I've had two appointments with Ashley and both times I experienced results beyond anything I could have reasonably expected. The first time was for hot flashes...they stopped. The second time was for digestive issues and she got my system reset immediately. So grateful!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Allison is the best!
Fantastic experience: Allison and her staff provide me expert care and knowledge that allows me to live an active lifestyle and play soccer even in my 50's!
Fantastic experience: This place is a literal godsend. I do not know what I would do without seeing Leah regularly. She has a true gift and I’m so grateful I found her through Thrive. I love the staff and everything about Thrive.
Fantastic experience: Again Allison provided immediate relief, with lasting effects. Chasing after my 3 year old grandson, and dog sitting caused my back to be out of adjustment. Chiropractor Allison Kennamer @ Thrive is the best. Treatment is immediately effective, noninvasive, gentle. I am able to continue with my PT and exercise routine. 5 ⭐️ Thank you Allison.
We are so grateful you had such a great experience. Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Thrive Integrative was just what I needed today! I had the most positive and encouraging experience and I am so appreciative of Dr. Kennamer's expertise and kindness!
Fantastic experience: Allison is the best. She is kind, compassionate and caring. She adjusts all 5 of my kids 9 and under regularly! She does a phenomenal job! I have also gone to her for several of my pregnancies!
We love our mamas and babies!!
Fantastic experience: Great!
Fantastic experience: So grateful for Allison and everyone at Thrive. Such high quality care. We’re lucky to have such an amazing place here in Athens!
Fantastic experience: Very clean and comfortable Very friendly and professional
Fantastic experience: Very professional and thorough..Between Dr. Kennemar and Devon, I am able to have a better quality of life. Highly recommend!!!
Fantastic experience: I always feel so much better after my visit to Dr. Alison. Her treatments and the staff are wonderful!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Kennamer was very thorough, asking very detailed questions and listening to my needs. After a complete evaluation, she provided a well thought out treatment plan for my needs.
Fantastic experience: Rolfing is everything I've always wanted from a "deep tissue" or "therapeutic" massage. Leah is kind and knowledgeable and I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with her.
Fantastic experience: Leah has resolved a host of issues I have come against over the years including pinched nerves, pregnancy, post pregnancy muscular imbalances, and more. She is professional, knowledgeable, and kind. Love my Rolfer!
Fantastic experience: Allison listens and addresses my issues and concerns and has since I became a patient a few years back. Office is peaceful and very clean. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Jana was great with my mom for her first visit. Lovely atmosphere, easy, friendly staff - we will definitely be back!
Fantastic experience: Our family has been seeing Dr. Allison for 4 years, and I highly recommend her for regular chiropractic care. I love the friendly staff, comfortable environment and quality care. Dr. Allison uses a drop table and an activator and has a very gentle touch. I have seen her for 3 pregnancies and have had wonderful labor and birth outcomes and overall have good health, and give a lot of praise, credit and gratitude to my regular chiro care. We love Dr. Allison because she is knowledgeable and not in a rush. I have also had a few pre-natal massages here too and it was a good experience. Highly recommend Thrive 10/10
Fantastic experience: Great chiropractic care; can get a little pricey (comparatively to other providers in the area) depending on what services are needed and individual insurance, but the end results are worth it. I've been to four other chiropractors in the ACC/Watkinsville area and Alison's treatment of my issues/conditions has far exceeded her regional contemporaries (I've been to chiros in Atlanta and S. Carolina as well). Highly recommended, if personal finances/insurance coverage allows.
Fantastic experience: super happy! great therapy
Positive experience: Athens Finest!
Fantastic experience: I’ve now had several Rolfing sessions with Leah McKellop, and I am so grateful to her. She has helped me regain my active life, and to be able to do the things I enjoy. I cannot thank her enough! Leah is such a professional and her Rolfing sessions, although sometimes painful - have helped me so much. Thanks, Leah!
Hey Mark, thank you for this feedback! This is awesome! We're so glad we can support you!
Fantastic experience: Acupuncturist dr Ashley Kissinger is a phenomenal practitioner that actually listens to you and takes time to give solid answers to any concerns. I’ve received more help and answers from her in a few months of treatment than an entire life time of tests and shrugs from western medicine. I highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of healing.
Hi Sarah! Thank you so much for this feedback! We're so happy to be able to support you!!
Fantastic experience: I have loved working with Jana. They are accommodating to my schedule even if I’m running a bit late, very attentive to my needs and actually helping to alleviate some of the symptoms of my chronic pain Illness.
Fantastic experience: Jana is knowledgeable, and flexible, trying out different treatments beyond/in addition to acupuncture, upbeat and optimistic
Fantastic experience: Well-run clinic, great staff, fabulous chiropractor!
Negative experience: Disappointing! I saw Tony Galis on recommendation when my acupuncturist was ill. Took 2 visits to get the treatment I asked for, did not even check my pulses or seemed to care about my extreme discomfort. Alpha Gal and SAAT seekers look elsewhere
Hi Joni, I'm so sorry you did not feel as though you got the treatment you were looking for. I strive to offer every patient the care I assess will best serve them in their quest toward a better quality of life. If I did not inspire confidence in that fact, the failing is surely with me. I wish you all the best in your healing journey! - Tony
Fantastic experience: Ashley is wonderful! She listens and has a gentle touch... I always feel so much better after her acupuncture treatments!
Fantastic experience: Jana was very attentive and caring.
Fantastic experience: Great experience!
Fantastic experience: I see Ashely pretty regularly for acupuncture and have always been very pleased. She's great, and the acupuncture has been very helpful!
This is so great to hear. Thank you for your review Melissa. We appreciate you.
Fantastic experience: Always feel put back together after Dr Kennamer is finished with me! We love thrive!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Kennamer is a great listener, kind and very careful when treating my lower back issues.
Fantastic experience: Excellent. Clean. Professional staff.
Negative experience: You know, it’s really a shame that I’m here, posting a horrible review but it feels important enough to share. This review pertains to Suzanne Jones. I’ve been to Suzanne a total of 5 visits. Every visit has been cordial, professional, and helpful. We would chit chat about very non-consequential things (mostly her cat and my job), and I always felt respected. Recently, it has come to light that Suzanne took it upon herself to do two things: 1) lie about the means in which I have been paying for my appointments - insinuating someone else has been footing the bill. Which is simply not true and I have bank records to prove otherwise. 2) speak to another client about gossip heard from a third client, and lie regarding discussions we have never had. I work in the medical field. I have the respect (and a healthy dose of respect regarding legal ramifications) to not discuss any conversation I have with my clients with anyone else. I also have the integrity to not lie or fabricate conversations based on heresy. Suzanne is a good masseuse to whom I have shown nothing but respect and kindness too. I would highly recommend looking elsewhere. It’s hard to override breaching patient confidentiality and lying about the information you’re disseminating with a skillset that can easily be found amongst more professional humans in this field.
Each and every patient’s care and confidentiality is of the utmost importance to everyone here at Thrive. We are sorry to hear your experience felt otherwise. If there is any confusion that can be cleared up please call us and we will be happy to get to the bottom of this.
Fantastic experience: Very pleased!! Have had 3 visits for Chiropractic health. They are excellent! Beautiful, calm & serene environment.The Dr's are VERY thorough & explain before and during adjustment. Currently helping me with injury from 2005 that never healed completely. This is after lots of Dr's, PT, & other treatments. In 3 visits I am sleeping better, and standing/sitting straighter & can turn my neck so much better! Highly recommend!!!!
Hi Heather! Thanks for sharing your experience at Thrive. We're happy we could help and look forward to supporting your health goals in the future!
Fantastic experience: I've had 2 sessions of acupuncture with Ashley and it has been AMAZING. I've gotten relief from anxiety, shoulder pain, and headaches so far. I have been to 3 different acupuncture practitioners and I think this one has made the biggest difference. Very much worth it to me.
Hi Megan! So pleased we could support you. Thank you for sharing your experience & we'll see you next time!
Fantastic experience: Four years ago, after I electrocuted myself, I was cursed with vertigo.... the epley maneuver worked but the vertigo remained...I was referred to Thrive and booked an appointment...met with and received treatment from Tony Galis.... like a wizard practicing ancient magic he HEALED me... healed as in it completely went away! Fast forward to the here and now and I, stupidly, re-injuried my shoulder... again I reached out to Thrive and booked an appointment with Tony...the day following my pain level was back to a manageable level....a few more visits and again, like magic, healed! Tony is truly a master at TCM....10/10 would recommend him for any issue regarding pain management or health issues....true healers are rare...Tony is at the top of my list! With eternal thanks and respect
Fantastic experience: Devon is amazing! She takes the time to help her clients and makes you feel welcome. Thrive has a wonderful vibe. I’ll definitely return.
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience. I have made another appointment!
Fantastic experience: Great massage, Enough pressure to release my really tight muscles but not to the point it was uncomfortable. It was very relaxing and therapeutic.
