Hi, I’m an Atlanta Chiropractor and Traditional Naturopathic Doctor affectionately known as Dr. JeNeen.

My Story

I have been practicing holistic healthcare since 2006, specializing in clinical nutrition, allergy desensitization and natural hormone balancing by using acupressure-based techniques, whole food supplementation, homeopathy, and herbs. I also assess patients with comprehensive functional lab work when needed. It is my mission to both inspire and empower families to achieve optimal health.

A native of snowy Buffalo, New York, I relocated to Atlanta to attend Spelman College, where I earned my B.S. in Mathematics, yet was drawn to the natural healing arts. I absolutely love to help people achieve optimal health. I strongly believe that the body was created to heal itself.

At Better Health Solutions, we focus on balancing and/or removing the major interferences to health which include structural interference, food sensitivities, chemical toxicity, heavy metal toxicity, immune challenges, electromagnetic pollution, and scars.

Despite my lengthy list of credentials, my favorite title is “mom.” I am a fitness enthusiast who enjoys kettlebell training, weightlifting, HIIT, self-defense, trail walking, and new adventures. I am one of the few who can say that I have jumped out of a perfectly good airplane and walked on fire. My favorite pastimes are reading, spending time with family and friends, and visiting the beach or the mountains.

My Credentials

I first ventured into the fitness arena and earned the distinction of Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). In 2006, I received my Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) degree from Life University. I then went on to earn my Doctor of Naturopathy (N.D.) designation from Trinity School of Natural Health in 2017. I am a Board-Certified Naturopathic Doctor through the American Naturopathic Medical Association.

I am also certified in Allergy Desensitization Techniques (ADT), Systems Balancing Technique (SBT), and Clinical Nutrition. I love learning and I’m always expanding my clinical expertise by completing three to four times the required amount of continuing education credits each year. My post-graduate studies have followed my passion and been focused on Nutrition Response Testing and Clinical Nutrition.

I am Brimhall Certified in the 6 Steps to Wellness Protocol. I earned my Applied Clinical Nutrition certificate from Texas College of Chiropractic and the CNHP (Certified Natural Health Professional) distinction from Trinity School of Natural Health. I became certified in Methylation Functional Testing to address and optimize the genetic components of health. In 2020, I was proud to become one of the first doctors in the country to be G6 Certified in Functional Testing through Optimal Health Systems.

Better Health Solutions Program

Better Choices for Better Health…

Our Better Health Solutions Program recognizes the following principles:

Each of us are born with the ability for our body to heal itself.
Healing will naturally take place unless there are interferences or stressors that slow or prevent the process.
Disease is a perfectly mapped out response of the body attempting to adapt for survival in the face of malnourishment and stress.

In traditional or allopathic medicine, there are two principle parts: The diagnosis and the treatment. There is usually a defining line whereby a person is classified as either well or sick. The latter is proclaimed if there is a specific symptom or medical test that comes back positive or out of the “normal” range.

The illness is named, or diagnosed, and the standard treatment for that particular diagnosis is prescribed. In most cases, this involves drugs, surgery, or both. With Nutrition Response Testing and a naturopathic model, we do not diagnose or treat disease. Instead, we seek to look at the large grey area between wellness and illness, and determine the things that may be pulling you away from your best health.

Our goal is to find and remove the stressors from the body. We are considering the cause, and not simply the effect. We pinpoint the underlying dysfunction, supply the missing nutrients, and simply allow the body to repair itself. As part of the analysis, we combine objective data gathered from a quantitative assessment of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), perform specific reflex testing using acupressure points, and order functional lab tests, when needed.

The ANS measurement is based on real-time heart rate variability analysis. This non-invasive, computer software was first used by the Russians in order to help predict Olympic athletes well before their competition years. It was then utilized extensively in the U.S. Navy in order to predict health and fitness conditions. Today, it’s used as a predictor of health & performance and a measurement of change.

The body has the ability to heal itself when we dampen the stress and give the correct nutrients, or “genuine replacement parts.” For this cause, we use only the finest whole food supplements, homeopathy, and herbal preparations. Whole bodies need whole foods. Deficiency and dysfunction occur due to a lack of nutrients in our food supply, personal eating habits and/or improper assimilation by the body. We are also being constantly exposed to an increasingly toxic world.

Each person is different, and therefore requires a different program in order to fully heal. By testing each individual for their specific, customized nutrition and health improvement program, we are able to get great results with even the most stubborn health concerns!

TESTIMONIALS

“I came to see Dr. Ridgeway 3 weeks ago with an earache and pain pretty much on the right side of my body and my head. I was extremely depressed. Crying episodes almost every other day were unavoidable and unexplainable. My energy level was way down even after 9-10 hours of sleep or more. I lacked zeal for life and I was desperate for change. Today, just 3 short weeks later, I’ve been consistently taking all supplements prescribed and changed my diet. I’ve made all my appointments, started exercising, and I feel like a million bucks!

I’ve noticed my energy level increase. I feel alive for the first time in a very, very long time. I’m sharing the joy with my loved ones. I’m no longer a zombie!”

A.P.

“My son is making great progress! After being desensitized to mold, I have been able to incorporate rice in limited amounts and quinoa back into his diet. For Valentine’s Day, I didn’t want him to feel left out of the festivities at school. I prepared him gluten and dairy free Amy’s pizza and a quinoa cake. He was able to eat pizza alongside his classmates, without any bad reactions! Thanks again, Dr. Ridgeway and the team! You all rock!”

M.M.

“I was in pretty bad shape. Before I came to see Dr. JeNeen, I had tingling, joint pain, recurrent sore throat, and was constantly sick. I didn’t know where to turn. I had been to MDs and other naturopaths, and I wasn’t getting any better. I saw results immediately! I continue to see results every week. I’m able to be more active than I was, and my quality of life has improved immensely. I can’t recommend Dr. JeNeen enough!”

E.L.

“I spoke with Dr. JeNeen and she took the time to explain some things to me, and this slowed me down. I was no longer afraid, but ready to do what I had to do to prepare for what was ahead. Dr. JeNeen recommended the supplements that I needed, and this has changed my life! I had my surgery with NO CHEMO and NO RADIATION, and when I went to see my conventional doctor (Oncologist) and we went over my results, I was told that MY CANCER IS IN REMISSION! My doctor was shocked and so amazed! She advised me to continue on with the supplements I have been doing because it’s working!

Thank you so much Dr. JeNeen. I truly wish there were more doctors like you! God’s blessings to you.”

C.B.

“I felt like I was dying alive; taking a whole lot of supplements to push myself up, but then coming back down. I went to my Gynecologist for lots of blood tests and the only thing that was low was my vitamin D. I knew there had to be more.

Since coming to see Dr. Ridgeway, I have regular bowel movements, energy level is high, and I feel 100{eaeef3cf22cd18ea0412c5e03cc2f04c10d93a62ae73bc34b61ce8a3b3507fb8} more alive, than dead. No bloating, not tired, and getting better sleep…”

G.A.

“I went to see Dr. JeNeen Ridgeway for a severe outbreak of Poison Ivy. She did a desensitizing session on me and shortly after I left the office I started to notice that the redness and itchiness were starting to diminish. The next day I noticed I was hardly itchy at all and all the patches that were all over my body were getting a lot smaller. Within a few days, I was all better.”

N.L.

“I brought my 4 year old son to see Dr. Ridgeway because he was having severe stomach pain and was feeling extremely nauseous nearly every morning. I would spend hours holding him as we would wait for the pain and feeling of sickness to pass. The medical community could offer us nothing other than prescription drugs & extensive testing to guess the problem.

Dr. Ridgeway identified a virus and food sensitivities in my son and we began treatment immediately. After 3 treatments, my son has had NO stomach pain! He has not felt like vomiting! He is back to his busy, talkative self, and he is able to continue the activities he loves like church and karate. I wish every parent could be aware that there are alternatives to medication and operations. God used Dr. Ridgeway to give my son his health back. She is an answered prayer.”

M.H.

“Before my health improvement program with Dr. JeNeen, I could not sleep through the night. I was constantly waking up and could not go back to sleep. I was only sleeping about 4-5 hours a night. Now, I am much better. I only wake up once a night and I am able to go back to sleep quickly. Now I’m sleeping 6-7 hours per night and sometimes even 8 hours.”

P.W.

“Before seeing Dr. JeNeen, I had no energy, constant stomach cramps that were not PMS related, and I also had diarrhea almost every day. Honestly, I was feeling miserable, losing weight, and growing increasingly weak. It was affecting my school/work life and was very limiting. Now, I am gaining back my energy. I have relatively no stomach pain (unless I wait too long to eat). My appetite has increased to a normal level and I now have 1-2 normal bowel movements every day. I am now gaining healthy weight and I feel a lot better.“

Every day the human body is exposed to Electromagnetic Frequency (EMF) emitting devices such as cell phones, microwaves, computers, gaming consoles, radios, and a vast amount of other electronic devices. As technology rapidly evolves, so are the levels of EMF we’re being exposed to. Dr. JeNeen believes that this toxin is one of the worst possible stressors on the body, so we take steps to proactively mitigate the potential damage caused to our bodies and our children.
