Dr. Jared Cohen, DC is the Co-Founder and Clinical Director of The Spine and Wellness Center in Coral Springs, Florida. He opened the practice in 2005 with Dr. Caterina Campesi in a 1,500-square-foot suite at 5675 Coral Ridge Drive, and he still practices in that same building two decades later — now with a larger team, a wider set of tools and the same conviction the practice was founded on: care should resolve the cause of a problem, not simply quiet the symptom that announced it.

Why structure comes first

Most people who come to see Dr. Cohen have already tried something — rest, stretching, over-the-counter pain relievers, a massage that helped for a day. What they usually have not had is a clear explanation of why the pain keeps coming back. That is where he starts. As Clinical Director he sets the clinical standard for the whole practice: examine thoroughly, explain what you find in plain language, and build the plan around the person on the table rather than a protocol.

His approach is patient-centered, holistic and drug-free. A low back that hurts on the drive home, a neck that stiffens at a desk, headaches that arrive every afternoon — in his view these are rarely isolated complaints. They are signals from a structure that has been compensating for a long time, and the job is to find the compensation, correct it and give the body what it needs to hold the correction.

What patients see Dr. Cohen for

Patients come to Dr. Cohen for lower back pain, neck pain, sciatica, herniated and bulging discs, headaches, sports injuries, car accident injuries and the accumulated wear of daily life. He draws on the full range of tools the clinic has assembled over twenty years: chiropractic adjustment, non-surgical spinal decompression and traction, the Graston Technique, cold laser and red light therapy, PEMF, cupping, physical therapy and sports rehabilitation.

Having that many options in one building matters less than knowing when not to use them. A disc patient who needs decompression does not need the same plan as a golfer with a tight hip, and Dr. Cohen’s plans are built accordingly — usually a short, focused combination rather than everything at once.

What your first visits look like

Your first visit with Dr. Cohen is a conversation and a measurement, not a quick adjustment. He wants to hear how the problem started, what makes it better or worse and what you need to get back to — the pickleball league, the commute, picking up a grandchild. Then comes a hands-on structural exam and objective testing: surface EMG and thermal scanning, with digital X-rays when they are indicated. Visit one, we measure.

On your second visit he walks you through the findings in plain language — what is likely causing the pain, what he recommends, roughly how many visits it should take and what “better” will look like at each phase. Care usually begins the same day, once you understand the first steps and agree with them. Visit two, full findings and plan.

The 4R Method

Every plan Dr. Cohen writes follows the clinic’s 4R Method — Repair, Rebuild, Regenerate, Refine. Repair calms the irritated tissue and takes pressure off the nerve. Rebuild restores motion, alignment and the stabilizing strength that lets a correction hold. Regenerate supports the tissue itself with the clinic’s advanced therapies. Refine locks the result in with posture, movement and a maintenance rhythm that fits your life. The sequence is why the practice can offer so many therapies without a plan ever feeling like a menu.

Beyond the adjustment

Dr. Cohen believes chiropractic works best as one part of a larger picture — alongside sound nutrition, regular exercise, real rest and a positive outlook — and he will tell you so. Patients describe him as passionate about his craft and genuinely invested in the Coral Springs and Parkland community the practice has grown up with; many of the families the clinic first treated now bring their children.

He also medically reviews the patient-education content published on this site, so the explanations you read here about the conditions we treat and the treatments we offer reflect how he actually practices. Ready to start? Book an appointment or take the 60-second spine assessment first.
