Chiropractor
Todd Ruland D.C.
Personal Philosophy: "True health can be attained only by restoring normal function to the body. Three interrelated parts of the body, physical, mental and chemical must be functioning normally for complete health."
Dr. Ruland's dedication to this philosophy is evident in his seven years as a private practitioner at our North Fort Worth location as well as
time spent teaching at Parker College of Chiropractic. He is a member of the American Chiropractic Association, the Texas Chiropractic Association, and the Council on Sport Injuries.
"It is impossible for one person to keep up on all the discoveries made in chiropractic medicine. That's why professional memberships are so important. When I meet other doctors, we can share information on the latest procedures and materials. The more I know, the better I can serve my patients."
Dr. Ruland is concerned about the community and is involved in local schools' academics and sports programs. His concern also shows in his membership in the Northeast Chamber of Commerce and various awards from the International Jaycees.

Katie Gerber D.C.
Personal Philosophy: “We are our own best medicine. Your body has the wonderful ability to heal itself. All functions of the body are controlled by the nervous system, when we remove stress from the nervous system, we flourish and remain well. The better we take care of ourselves the better our bodies can thrive.
Spinal health is instrumental to thriving as our spine is the home for all of our nerves. Chiropractic allows us to stay moving, healthy and constantly growing.”
Dr. Katie’s chiropractic journey started in high school…
“After years of gymnastics and cheerleading, my shoulder and low back caused me to miss a lot of sleep. When I started seeing my chiropractor in high school, I discovered the many benefits of chiropractic that extended beyond pain relief. As I started talking to other people about my experiences, I realized there were many people who needed the same care.”
When Dr. Katie was in chiropractic school, she was able to see the benefits first hand when she was in a car accident that left her with a broken back, leg, and herniated discs.
“My chiropractor helped me starting immediately after my accident, and long after my brace was off. I already knew I was excited to graduate and start helping people get well, but it was at this time that I became passionate about how strong our bodies are when we care for them properly. Since healing from the accident, I have enjoyed sharing the benefits of chiropractic with people, and allowing them to become healthier and more adaptable. ”
Dr. Katie loves to learn more about chiropractic and wellness and attends seminars in order to further her education. She also enjoys teaching kids and new moms about health and preventative care.

chiropractor
Michael O’Neill D.C.
Personal Philosophy: “The innate ability of healing is a remarkable aspect of the human body's resilience. Within each of us lies a complex and sophisticated system designed to repair and regenerate.
This intrinsic capacity involves various physiological processes, from the immune system's defense against infection to the cellular regeneration that mends tissue damage. Homeostasis, the body's ability to maintain internal balance, plays a crucial role in supporting the innate healing power. Additionally, the mind-body connection contributes significantly to the overall well-being, highlighting the impact of mental and emotional states on physical health. The body's innate ability to heal serves as a foundation for recovery and restoration, emphasizing the importance of holistic approaches that support and enhance these natural processes. ”
Dr. O’Neills chiropractic journey started while pursuing his undergraduate degree..
“During my experience of shadowing clinics, hospitals and speaking to individuals about how their lives were ruined with the use of pharmaceutical drugs, I wanted to find a way to enhance people's quality of life in a natural, non invasive, non-pharmaceutical way. When I found out about the wonders and miracles chiropractic care offers, I was pulled in immediately. Since then, I have never looked back.”
As Dr. O’Neill progressed through chiropractic school, he was able to see the impact chiropractic care had on individuals dealing with years of unanswered acute and chronic pain.
“As I reached my clinical phase of chiropractic school, I was able to see the differences I made in people's lives. The ability to translate all the information I learned from school and apply it to real life cases was an indescribable experience. Enjoying the complexity of different cases and seeing how chiropractic care can be so useful for each individual through their own way and see them regain their quality of life truly was a monumental experience.”
Dr. O’Neill loves to continue his education about chiropractic and wellness by reading and continuously attending seminars. He enjoys being able to describe the benefits of chiropractic care to each individual who finds interest so they can thrive through life the way they were intended to.
