At DFW Holistic Health our goal is to have a patient-centered approach to health care, focusing on the root causes or underlying factors that may be affecting one's health and well-being. Dr. Michael Phillips, DC and Dr. Charlanne Gasper, DC are primarily trained as chiropractors, but have expanded their expertise by also becoming Certified Clinical Nutritionists and Certified Applied Kinesiologists.
Our goal is to restore balance and normal function to all systems of the body. We believe that creating a strong foundation is the key, not only structurally, but nutritionally as well. While we definitely do help people with musculoskeletal injuries, such as back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, etc., we also love to help people with achieving optimal wellness.
We want everyone to live to their greatest potential and we would love to help you with this journey!

Services
Dr. Phillips attended Arlington High School in the early 80's.
During this time, he started lifting weights under the guidance of his father, who was a long-time college and high school football and track coach.
He continued this passion as he graduated from Texas A&M University with a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering in 1988.
This knowledge fulfilled his desire to understand the intricacies of how stuff works.
After graduation he obtained an engineering position at Fairchild Aircraft, and later at Unisys, the latter being a contractor for NASA in Houston.

Kristi brings a wealth of life experience to the "table".
She has always made health and wellness a priority for herself and her family and loves to help others do the same.
She joined this practice in 2014 as the full time Office Manager.
In 2017, she left briefly to pursue other endeavors, then returned part time to assist in the office and with the doctors.
Her journey (and the repeated encouragement of the doctors) led her to pursue massage therapy, and she is thrilled to now be here in that capacity!

Applied Kinesiology (AK) is a diagnostic tool using manual muscle testing to evaluate your unique state of health.
AK has also been called "Functional Neurology" and allows practitioners to correlate findings with other standard diagnostic testing.
The International College of Applied Kinesiology (ICAK) is the original professional organization that is responsible for the education, standards and certification of the global community of Applied Kinesiology practitioners.
There are so many types of holistic treatments out there, such as, chiropractic adjustments, various myofascial therapies, cranial techniques, acupressure or meridian therapies, clinical nutrition, dietary management, as well as evaluating environmental irritants and various reflex procedures.

Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health.
Chiropractic services are used most often to treat neuromusculoskeletal complaints, including but not limited to back pain, neck pain, pain in the joints of the arms or legs, and headaches.
Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) - often referred to as chiropractors - practice a hands-on, drug-free approach to health care that includes patient examination, diagnosis and treatment.
