About
Dr. Anjali Agrawal
“It all started with a cold.”
-DR. ANJALI AGRAWAL
Dr. Anjali was pursuing her life-long dream of going into healthcare by entering the pre-med program at UCSD. After her Freshman Year, she returned home for the summer and started looking for a summer job. Through some coincidental events, Dr. Anjali started working for a Chiropractor as a Receptionist and started receiving chiropractic adjustments. Prior to this job, Dr. Anjali actually had no idea that Chiropractors were even involved with healthcare, but quickly developed an interest in this holistic whole-body approach. One morning when Dr. Anjali was supposed to go to work, she woke up with some very sniffles. She called her boss to inform her, and the Chiropractor asked her to come in for an adjustment, and then she could go home. Dr. Anjali went to get her adjustment, and as if by magic, by the time she walked back out to her car, her sniffles were gone and she felt great!
Even though she had seen many patients having marked improvement in their health, Dr. Anjali's own experience with the effectiveness of the adjustment with her cold was the catalyst for ultimately pursuing a career in Chiropractic.
Dr. Anjali started with a passion for working with families to help them conceive and providing holistic prenatal and postnatal care, as well as working with newborns and children of all ages.
Over the last nearly 10 years, her passion has widened and she now continues to help families locally as well as entrepreneurs and corporate businesses around the world.
“My biggest passion is to help others move well, eat well, and live well.”
-DR. ANJALI AGRAWAL
Dr. Anjali Agrawal's ultimate purpose for growing and expanding her online wellness business and chiropractic practice is deeply rooted in her family, comprising her husband and two young daughters.
Motivated by a desire to provide a better life for her loved ones, Dr. Anjali has embarked on a journey driven by a passion for holistic healthcare. Her initial introduction to chiropractic care, through a serendipitous summer job, ignited a newfound fascination with its whole-body approach. This transformative experience, coupled with the profound impact it had on her own health, solidified her commitment to sharing the benefits of chiropractic care with others.
As she navigates the path of entrepreneurship and builds her online presence, Dr. Anjali remains steadfast in her dedication to not only her professional growth but also to creating a legacy of well-being for her family and community.
Through her endeavors, she seeks to inspire others to prioritize their health and nurture their bodies, echoing the values she holds dear within her own family.
Dr. Anjali extends an abundance of gratitude to her family for steadfast support of Back in Balance Health. Their dedication fuels her passion for holistic wellness.

Nursing Mother's Neck: A Modern-Day Ailment
Nursing Mother's Neck: A Modern-Day Ailment
Have you ever heard of "nursing mother's neck"? It's a common condition that many new moms experience, often referred to as the "original tech neck".
Why Does It Happen?
When we're caring for our newborns, we often find ourselves in a forward-head posture, especially while nursing. This position, held for extended periods, can strain the muscles in our neck and upper back. Over time, this can lead to:
Muscle Tension and Pain: The constant strain on these muscles can cause significant discomfort and stiffness.
Reduced Range of Motion: Limited neck mobility can make everyday tasks challenging.
Headaches: Tension headaches are a common symptom of poor posture.
How Can You Relieve Nursing Mother's Neck?
Conscious Posture:
Be Mindful: Pay attention to your posture, especially when nursing or holding your baby.
Neutral Spine: Aim to keep your ears aligned with your shoulders and hips.
Frequent Breaks: Take short breaks to move your neck and shoulders.
Gentle Stretches:
Neck Rolls: Slowly roll your head in a circular motion.
Chin Tuck: Gently tuck your chin towards your chest.
Shoulder Rolls: Roll your shoulders forward and backward.
Professional Care:
Chiropractic Adjustments: A chiropractor can help realign your spine and alleviate pain.
Massage Therapy: Massage can help relax tight muscles and improve blood flow.
Remember, you don't have to suffer in silence

I brought my daughter when she was just 10 days old to see Dr. Agrawal for help with latching. My husband and I were at our wits end, so our doula suggested that we see Dr. Agrawal. Within hours it was like we had a new daughter.

I came to see Dr. Anjali for some sudden, very intense back pain. My mother-in-law has been seeing Dr. Anjali for years and I finally got to experience the low force approach to chiropractic that my MIL has been raving about. I feel so much better, and I feel like there’s hope for me to live pain-free!

I feel human again! I’m able to sleep much more deeply at night and I am forgetting that I had pain even one week ago.
