We began Active Edge because we saw an opportunity to serve our community in a way we weren’t seeing elsewhere. Health care had become (and still is) so compartmentalized that there wasn’t anyone treating patients as whole people; just hips, hearts, nervous systems, cancers, etc.
We set out to be different. Since 2012, we have been listening to the whole story, connecting the dots, and drawing the big picture.
At Active Edge you’ll discover a healthcare experience designed for your design. Our amazing bodies adapt, compensate, and heal according to the stimulus on and around them. Often, especially in the case of chronic pain, recurring injury, or unusual presentations, the root of your symptoms originates elsewhere. Empowering your body to heal itself allows for healing in amazing and often unexpected ways.
Whether you want to start feeling good or keep feeling great, we invite you to partner with us, activate your body’s natural healing ability and refresh your vibrance.Your holistic doctors will get to know you top to bottom, front to back, and inside out. We’ll consider your goals, combine the appropriate variety of treatments to address the root cause(s) of your concerns and boost your health accordingly so you can thrive!
EXCELLENT Based on 155 reviews Taryn Gehlert2023-05-25 Dr Craner and Dr Henzel keep me pain free! I was in excruciating pain for years after a car accident and I’m so grateful to them and their incredible team and the care the provide. I now enjoy regular maintenance visits and wouldn’t consider stopping. David Andrews2023-05-11 Jasmine and team are amazing and unlike any Chiropractor I'v ever been to. They take a holistic full body approach to your health and spend the time getting to know things about you. The adjustments are thoughtful, clearly explained and linked to actual causes (vs adressing symptoms). I walked out a new person! A true Unicorn of a find which may have me traveling to Columbus regularly to see them for check up's in the future. Sydney G2023-04-28 This is an incredible holistic practice that makes sure you get relief. I’ve been a patient for a year and a half, and they have found the root of several problems that doctors have missed for years, and my health is better than it ever has been. I have never walked out of the office without feeling significantly better because they truly care about how you feel. They are fantastic chiropractors (all using different approaches) with phenomenal staff. Jared Friesner2023-04-20 Welcoming and pleasant staff! Super clean facility.

Alec Garcia2023-04-03 What a great practice! They are amazing and have put me back together many times. Great customer service. A. Garcia Rachael Hendershott2023-04-03 I have seen countless providers over the years with less to no success/relief. In the few months I have been a patient, I have seen more improvement in my pain and range of motion than I ever have before. Each member of the team cares about you not only as a patient, but as a person as well. I highly recommend Active Edge to any one. Robert Bartels2023-03-01 The Dr Hensel and their staff do a great job in understanding your issues and offering solutions to your problems. They have helped me immensely with my back issues. MaryLou DiDonato2023-02-21 I've been to chiropractors regularly for the past 40 or so years. What I've found at Active Edge is NEW and helpful techniques used by a very experienced staff. I'm learning so much more about how the body interacts with "itself" from top to bottom. I expect ongoing and great results. Yannick AchaMutah2023-02-18 Great service, very friendly staff.

Active Edge is one of few Columbus chiropractor practices to combine traditional chiropractic principals with neuromuscular and fascial movement based rehab as well as functional medicine.
Though not every patient needs all of these services, having the full array of options at our disposal in our Columbus health center allows us to personalize your program and get your best results.
Our vision is to be your health resource. We’re here to empower you and your family to become healthier and live more vibrant lives. We do this through a combination of one-on-one therapies in the office as well as offering health seminars to companies, groups, on site, and at various events around Columbus.
Your Discovery Evaluation is a comprehensive assessment of both your physical health (bones, muscles and other structures) and physiological health systems (organ functions, sleep, energy, etc) Adding functional medicine, this physiological component, to your treatment by our skilled Columbus chiropractor team allows us to go deeper and address the underlying issues of instead of merely treating symptoms.
Assessing both your physical and physiological health allows us to create the best program for your unique body. Your physician will evaluate structure, balance, movement, fatigue, digestion, sleep cycles, energy levels, eating habits, and more.
Your detailed history allows us to uncover underlying problems or conditions that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. This information in combination with your treatment goals, allows your physician to work with you to create a personal treatment program for your body’s specific needs.
Your unique journey will likely combine multiple techniques in the combination that best suits your body’s needs. Some services that might be part of your care include: advanced soft tissue techniques, structural alignment through chiropractic adjustments, dry needling, cupping, movement retraining or exercise therapy programs, and functional medicine. Your comprehensive and interconnective program will help you resolve underlying dysfunction, retrain habits, activate healing, and restore movement, energy, and vibrance. Together, let’s empower your amazing body!
Our progressive physicians and trained staff utilize a combination of therapeutic soft tissue techniques, physical rehab, functional medicine, health education, and chiropractic adjustments to return patients to health as efficiently and effectively as possible.
Combining therapies interconnectivity and simultaneously allows us to create individualized programs to help your body heal faster and stronger than traditional treatment styles. Additionally, our personalized home programs and proactive wellness plans give our patients the edge they need to prevent future re-occurrence.
At this point, you are feeling better than you ever thought you could as you are feeling energized and thriving. You have learned a lot about your body, you are moving more efficiently, you understand your body’s cues, and you have a good idea of what to do with these cues. This means you get to try new things, achieve new goals, and conquer new challenges! As you do, we will be here as your resource, as needed, to help you nourish, boost, and refresh your health.
Pain is generally the last symptom to show up and the first to go away. This means that by the time you realize there is a problem, there has been a problem for a long time. Especially for chronic or recurring issues, understanding how you got to where you are is so important for getting to where you want to go. In this stage of your journey, you will resolve underlying dysfunction, remove cheats, and retrain habits. As we aid you in activating your body’s natural healing potential, we will help you regain movement, energy, and body function both inside and outside. Throughout this process, you will start to feel greater ease and inspiration as you restore communication and efficiency in your body. Together, we will constantly assess, observe, and reassess your body’s responses to boost your results.
You are your own person, with your own collection of life events which brought you to where you are today. You deserve to be heard, seen, and treated as the individual you are. Your journey begins with your Discovery Evaluation. This first visit includes your exam which works to uncover the root of your issue(s), new patient diagnostics, and, of course, your first treatment. This is how we will help you begin connecting the dots and feeling better. After your first treatment, we will ask you to observe your body’s responses– good, bad, or indifferent. There is no wrong answer as this is just starting point information and direction for moving forward. In your second visit, we will review this feedback and your diagnostics to further identify potential underlying causes and compensations. We will combine everything we have learned about you, consider your goals, and together create a plan to resolve your concerns from the roots up.
