Achieve Optimal Health through Comprehensive Care
At Metroplex Wellness, we pride ourselves on being a unique healthcare provider, offering integrated medicine and comprehensive wellness services to the Southlake, TX community. Our journey began with Dr. Richard Thwaites, who, after spending 10 years in the US Army, decided to pursue a career in medicine. He graduated from Parker College of Chiropractic in 1998 and went on to earn his Medical Doctorate (MD) from St. George's University College of Medicine in 2002.
Dr. Thwaites is the only doctor in the Southlake area who has earned both his Medical Doctor and Doctor of Chiropractic degrees, making him uniquely qualified to work with you on all of your wellness goals. With over 20,000 medical students and physicians trained, and strong relationships with the best healthcare providers, you can be assured that you are in capable hands.
Our practice is built on the belief that healthcare quality in America is at an all-time low. Doctors are overworked, patients have more complex health issues, and there is often a lack of integration in treatments prescribed by different specialists. As both a Chiropractor and a Doctor of Medicine, Dr. Thwaites is able to bridge this gap and provide comprehensive care that you and your family deserve.
Services Offered
At Metroplex Wellness, we offer a wide range of services, including:
- Chiropractic Care: Our chiropractic care is designed to reduce pain and increase joint motion by directly affecting muscle and bone structures. We believe that chiropractic adjustments can improve conditions outside the treatment area, although we do not claim that chiropractic care treats disease.
- Family Chiropractic: We offer chiropractic care for the whole family, from children to seniors. Regular adjustments can help maintain balance within the body and keep your spine healthy.
- Chiropractic Care for Kids: We provide chiropractic care for kids, which is a gentle and safe way to treat common childhood ailments, such as ear infections, colic, and asthma.
- Pregnancy Wellness Care: Pregnancy is a time of significant change for a woman's body, and chiropractic care can help alleviate common discomforts associated with pregnancy, such as back pain, sciatica, and pubic symphysis pain.
- Wellness Care: Our wellness care is designed to help you maintain optimal health and prevent illness. We offer a variety of services, including nutritional counseling, stress management, and exercise programs.
- Other Symptoms: We also treat a wide range of other symptoms, including headaches, migraines, neck pain, sciatica, disc injury, whiplash, work injuries, extremities pain, carpal tunnel, and shoulder pain.
At Metroplex Wellness, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care to our patients. We believe that by integrating medicine and chiropractic care, we can provide comprehensive care that addresses the whole person, not just symptoms. If you are looking for a healthcare provider who can help you achieve your wellness goals, we invite you to contact us today.
