Our Team

Dr. Cindy Perkins, DC, MBA, founder of Back In Health Wellness Center, traces her journey to the healing arts back to her roots in Minnesota. A multi-spot athlete growing up, she experienced a pivotal moment during her track days when an injury led her to a chiropractor, sparking a curiosity which later became a passion for the field.

She pursued her undergraduate studies at Northwestern College and Minnesota State University, followed by a dedicated focus on chiropractic education at Northwestern College of Chiropractic. Driven by a thirst for knowledge, she later earned her MBA from the University of Phoenix.

In 2007, Dr. Perkins realized her dream by establishing Back In Health Wellness Center, a haven for comprehensive wellness and chiropractic care. Her commitment to excellence is reflected in a diverse range of certifications, including Acupuncture, Whiplash and Brain Injury Traumatology, Webster Certification for pregnancy care, and ongoing pursuits in postural education expertise and Functional Medicine.

Beyond the clinic, Dr. Perkins actively engages with her community, contributing to initiatives like Relay For Life, Susan G Komen 3 Day Walk, and the Congenital Heart Foundation Heart Walk. She served as the esteemed Guv’na of Lutz in 2014/2015, showcasing her dedication to community leadership.

Family is at the heart of Dr. Perkins’ life. She is a proud mother to two sons, 17-year-old Lyndon and 3-year-old Lennox, and shares her home with two beloved Morkies, Gretchen and Otis. An avid sports enthusiast, she revels in football, tailgating, and never misses a home Buccaneers game. Dr. Perkins also indulges her culinary passion and finds cooking to be a relaxing hobby, even when cooking for dozens of people.

Dr. Cindy loves treating patients of all ages, so that her work is never monotonous. She finds joy in creating a warm, healing environment for her patients, and helping to facilitate them living happier and healthier lives.

Dr. Priya Amin, DC, joined our team as an intern in 2015, and stayed on as an associate doctor thereafter. She left us briefly to move up north after she got married, but soon realized that she enjoys sunshine much more than snow. A graduate of the University of South Florida, she continued her education at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, FL. Driven by a commitment to holistic and natural healthcare, she underwent additional training with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, earning a Webster certification for the specialized treatment of pregnant women.

In a family where medical doctors abound, including her father and sister, Priya charted her own course by choosing chiropractic care. Her passion for a more natural approach to health reflects not only in her professional life but also in her personal choices.

Outside the chiropractic realm, Priya showcases her creativity and craftiness with various projects, and also often gets recruited as a wedding organizer for friends and family. Her talent extends to the kitchen, where she proves to be an excellent baker, challenging herself with intricate and delicious desserts. This attention to detail is not only a hallmark of her chiropractic work but also a defining feature of her hobbies.

Balancing career and family, Priya is married to Abhi and is a dedicated mother to her 1 1/2-year-old daughter, Siya. Beyond the office, Siya keeps her busy, emphasizing the importance of a holistic approach to health and well-being that Dr. Amin passionately advocates in both her professional and personal life.
