I created Adjust-ology, Chiropractic & Whole Body Health, because I wanted to create a space where healthcare could be more like a chat between friends than a stuffy, rushed, one-sided set of instructions.
When you walk into our office, the friendly, relaxed vibe will make you feel right at home. Whether you are interacting with our awesome staff, browsing the store, or just taking a breather in one of our chairs, we know you'll feel comfortable in the space.
Throughout our appointments together, I will provide you with well rounded care and guide you with evidence-based solutions. My hope is that you realize that you, the patient, are in control; if anything I am suggesting doesn't feel right or doesn't fit your lifestyle, that's okay! We will pivot to what works for you!
Thank you for trusting Adjust-ology with your health and wellbeing. I am excited to work with you!
- Dr. Kira Cervenka
Dr. Kira grew up in Toms River, New Jersey, majored in Exercise Sports Science at UNC Chapel Hill, and earned her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, FL. Dr. Kira has been practicing for 14 years now and has recently made the decision, in 2025, to start her own practice focusing on chiropractic and whole body health.
Dr. Kira has played all types of sports throughout her life (soccer, softball, bowling, track), culminating in a very successful collegiate rugby career at UNC. However, since playing full contact sports is high risk for someone who works with their hands, Dr. Kira now spends her time doing more restorative activities like yoga (which, by the way, she is likely to suggest you try 😉)
While she spends most of her week at the office, Dr. Kira spends her weekends exploring and hanging out with her family, friends, and house full of animals (2 dogs and 2 cats!). You might spot Dr. Kira out and about checking out a local art fair, hiking at Umstead, or playing games and grabbing a pint at a local brewery. You will most definitely find Dr. Kira at an amusement park a few times per year! On top of this, it is important to Dr. Kira to give back, and you can be on the lookout for opportunities to give back with Dr. Kira as Adjust-ology hits the ground running. In past years, Dr. Kira has traveled to both the Dominican Republic with ChiroMission and to India as part of a study abroad program to offer free chiropractic care. In addition, Dr. Kira had headed a yearly holiday drive supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities for the past 9-years; in 2017 she supported the Special Olympics through repelling off the 30-story Wells Fargo building downtown Raleigh, NC as part of a fundraiser (OverTheEdge)!
As a practitioner, Dr. Kira believes in empowering patients to have more agency over their own health and wellbeing; she meets you where you are and the creation of a treatment plan is done collaboratively. Being healthier doesn't mean chasing an impossible diet or lifestyle, it is finding which changes will make the most profound impact and then figuring out the steps needed to make those changes. Since no two patients are the same, she doesn't rely too heavily on any one technique, instead she uses what will be the most effective and aligns with patient preference, including the incorporation of myofascial/soft tissue work and functional medicine. Check out Dr. Kira's "Services" page for more details on this!
Dr. K traveled to the Dominican Republic with ChiroMission in 2011 and participated in furthering their purpose of "serving the suffering and helping to provide a better standard of living with the use of natural, preventative Chiropractic Care as well as raising funds for food, shelter, clothing, etc. for those in need".
