Raising the Bar in Athlete Health Care

👋 Hey there! I’m Dr. Thomas,

I am your Nixa Chiropractor and Sports Rehabilitation Doctor at The Athlete Spot™.

My mission is to empower you to overcome injuries and pain, and return to your sports as soon as possible stronger and with confidence in your body!

I am no stranger to injuries, specially from sports or lifting.

From debilitating back pain and muscle tears from poor technique, to meniscus injuries, ligament tears and tendinopathies from overuse and trauma. I’ve had my fair share of injuries. Most of these happened during my high school and college years.

Over the last 15 years I have worked with athletes of all ages. From young athletes wanting to get stronger, and high school and college athletes needing to recover for the next game, to elite and professional athletes recovering from injuries and returning to their sport safe and fast.

At The Athlete Spot™ my goal is to help you be the best athlete you can be.

I want to change healthcare. This is why I started The Athlete Spot™. To be your partner and guide that helps you get past injuries and back to crushing your fitness goals.

Recovering from injury can be daunting, and frustrating.

Knowing what exercises, when to do them, how much to do, and when to progress them can be overwhelming.

If you combine our approach with your efforts, you can say goodbye to band-aid care and hello to peak performance.
