Hi! I'm Dr. Charlotte Blanchet, a birth doula, chiropractor, and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and the founder of The River of Life Chiropractic Center in Kennesaw, Georgia. As both a healthcare professional and a mother of two, I have a deep passion for supporting women throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I believe every mother deserves to feel heard, empowered, informed, and genuinely supported as she navigates one of life's most transformative experiences. My approach to birth support is rooted in education, informed decision-making, and compassionate, continuous care. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, considering an epidural, preparing for an induction, or simply unsure of what you want, my role is to support YOUR birth experience without judgment or personal agendas. What makes my practice unique is that I offer a **one-stop shop for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care**. Along with birth doula services, I provide Webster-certified prenatal chiropractic care, postpartum recovery support, and professional lactation consultations. This allows me to build lasting relationships with families and support them through every stage of their journey. I believe birth is not just about bringing a baby into the world. It's about helping a mother feel confident, respected, and supported as she begins a new chapter. I proudly serve families throughout Kennesaw, Marietta, Acworth, Woodstock, Smyrna, and the greater Atlanta area. I'd be honored to be part of your birth team! 🤍

Today was my first visit with Dr. Blanchet and it was so wonderful! The warm welcoming environment and her knowledgeable touch was exactly what I needed. I walked out of her office feeling wonderful and armed with new stretches to help with my hip issues. I will be back!

I can’t recommend River of Life enough! Charlotte is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle, and really took the time to listen to what I was experiencing during pregnancy. I left feeling so much better and am already looking forward to my next visit! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a chiropractor, especially during pregnancy and postpartum.
— Laura Giles
A spine doctor at the Mayo Clinic suggested I see a Chiropractor who is very well versed in the Graston Technique, for arthritis in my back. Charlotte is a perfect fit. She is VERY knowledgeable about all things body. She's super friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend her!

Dr. Charlotte has a way of making you feel comfortable right away. She’s incredibly generous with her knowledge, which I’ve especially appreciated as a first-time mom. I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to receive adjustments throughout my pregnancy.
— Emily Ethridge
Dr. Charlotte is the best! She makes me feel safe, seen and heard each visit. I was nervous to see a chiropractor, but desperate for pain relief during my pregnancy. I am now 13 months postpartum with my 2nd and still see her for adjustments and massage. All I can say is I wish I had gone to her sooner! She truly cares about her clients. I cannot recommend her enough!

Dr Charlotte is AMAZING! She was my doula and I've seen her for adjustments for years. As a doula she had unwavering support and I loved all the help she provided pre and post pregnancy (her prenatal yoga - the best!). My husband and I really felt like she was family with us in the hospital room and I'm so thankful for her presence on such an important day. She's also done adjustments for my newborn and I completely trust her with mine and my daughter's body. Whole body care at its best <3

Dr. Charlotte sees my husband and I for adjustments and she is wonderful. I first started going to see her due to neck and lower back pain. Being a Sonographer for 20+ years has really done a number on my body. Within the first two visits, Dr. Charlotte had it all worked out. I started with a hump in my neck and it is almost completely gone after one graston treatment. I am truly thankful I found her. Thank you Dr. Charlotte.

Fantastic chiropractor and really cares about my wellbeing

I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant with a prior back injury and have been seeing Dr. Charlotte for 8 weeks. She takes great care of me during my visits and also takes time to show me exercises to do at home. She is very knowledgeable and explains everything during the adjustment making it easy to understand. She also offers pre-natal yoga classes a couple of times a week which I've enjoyed. I highly recommend her!
— Ashley Tobin
Dr Blanchet is amazing, I cannot recommend her enough! She has helped me with a few issues using the graston technique and it has made a huge difference. She's incredibly knowledgeable, is friendly and welcoming and has a beautiful office in Kennesaw that is super convenient with plenty of parking! Highly recommend!!

Such a wonderful and calming environment! I came here for my first pregnancy, unsure of what to expect. She did an assessment of my alignments, and she explained her findings in a manner that was professional but simple enough for the every day person to understand. Dr. Charlotte did a excellent job at explaining everything she was doing and some of the causes of my back ache. At the end, she also showed me stretches to do at home to help lessen my discomfort. Here you get one-on-one attention in a calming room that feels like home. Highly recommend!
— Mandi Hunter
So happy to have found Dr. Charlotte. She saw me through my last pregnancy and now she sees my 15 month old. My son hates doctors but is a different baby with Dr. Charlotte. He puts up a minimal protest and always is a happy baby after his adjustments. Highly recommend.
— Leah Schuknecht
My young daughters adore Charlotte. They make “popcorn” on their backs and laugh the entire time. We come in regularly for maintenance and for the occasional headache or growing pain. When the appointment is over they can’t stop talking about her the entire way home and always look forward to their appointments. I should also add that, my youngest is very cautious about who touches her (she kicked a nurse in the belly when she got her annual checkup🤦♀️) and Charlotte has made all of us feel welcome and cared for with her warmth, friendly demeanor, skill set and professionalism. We highly recommend it!
— Brandi Alina
Charlotte is amazing! She literally saved me after Getting rear ended by an RV at 19 weeks pregnant and then taking care of me all the way through my pregnancy. She now adjusts my baby since 1 week old which helped with her latch and continues to take care of all 3 of us now! I love being able to bring the whole family and we feel so much better after seeing her!
— Gaby Rodgers
Dr. Charlotte Blanchet has been adjusting my circle for years. As a doula, I refer all of my clients during and after pregnancy, as well as their babies after birth. I love that she does family visits where we can all get adjusted in one appointment. Myself, my husband and our twins! She’s great with the kids, they have so much fun and everyone leaves feeling great! Dr. Charlotte is very gentle and really knows what she’s doing. What I love most about her is her holistic approach and recommendations that I have found so helpful.
— Chawnie Baker
Charlotte is a great chiropractor, she listens to you and explains what's she's doing, she also gives you suggestions on other things you can work on. I had bad migraines and she helped a ton. She is very intuitive and knows a lot about her work. Family friendly environment as well which is a major plus being a mom
