    Our History

    Roots Health Clinic was started with the idea of offering a holistic approach to health which emphasizes building a stable foundation and to utilising the bodies’ own innate ability to heal itself.

    At the beginning of 2020, Marcin became the first officially recognised chiropractor in the Czech Republic.

    Our Philosophy

    We cater to the individual’s needs and goals by focusing on their very own situation, educating them and sharing useful tools related to movement, breathing, nutrition and other lifestyle choices.
    This gives individuals the confidence to take responsibility and improve their health, pain management, sleep, cognitive function, work results, metabolism, physical performance, and general wellbeing.

    The Roots Approach peruses the achievement of optimal health and contributes to its continual maintenance.

    Our Approach

    The Roots Approach peruses the achievement of optimal health and contributes to its continual maintenance.

    The Goal

    We will do our best to help you improve your health and maintain it by sharing useful tools and knowledge.  However, we do not heal, we do not cure, we do not prescribe any medication. We help you function better to activate your body’s potential to heal itself and have a greater tolerance to physical and mental stress.

    Patient Care

    We’ll provide hands-on treatment in the office and education you can take home with you, enabling you to become an active participant in your recovery and future physical health.

    Online Consultations

    We provide online consultations to let you improve your health while you are at home.
