Voted best chiropractor Summerville SC, 7 years in a row, Dr. Tom received his Doctor of Chiropractic and degree in nutrition from Life University in Marietta, Georgia, in 1995.
Dr. Tom has almost 30 years of experience in the healthcare arena, beginning as a swim instructor for children, a personal trainer, and a health coach. Dr. Tom discovered his love for Chiropractic after sustaining a neck injury while surfing. In pain and unable to surf, he decided to go to a local chiropractor, where he received his first adjustment. Within days, he was back in the water, riding the waves pain-free.
Even before beginning his career, Dr. Tom was no stranger to health and physical fitness. He was raised by his father, a Hall of Fame boxing referee who supervised such fights as the first Ali vs. Frazier, Frazier vs. Foreman, and Ali vs. Norton, just to name a few. His father was also the founder of the first program using boxing aerobics as a form of physical fitness. His mother taught exercise and dance classes and is now the director of several programs for physical fitness for senior citizens. This upbringing helped him be chosen out of 60,000 contestants to appear on The American Gladiators. He has also appeared in several fitness magazines.
Dr. Tom chose Central Avenue in Summerville to open his chiropractic office because he loves the beauty of the low country as well as all the smiling faces. Dr. Tom believes that through regular chiropractic adjustments, good nutrition, and a positive mental attitude, one can live a healthier life – pain-free and drug-free.
Dr. Justin Wilson was born in Augusta, Georgia where he participated in many different sports throughout school, including football, basketball, tennis, and track. He then attended Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, Georgia where he majored in Kinesiology to continue to be involved in sports.
Dr. Justin always knew he wanted to work in the healthcare field because of his willingness to help others and originally wanted to become a physical therapist, but physical therapy did not resonate with him like chiropractic. Dr. Justin decided to shadow a chiropractor one day, and it was the patient testimonials, the results, and the feeling of gratitude that ultimately led him to choose the path of chiropractic.
Dr. Justin attended Life University in Marietta, Georgia, from April 2019 until December 2022, where he graduated magna cum laude. He is now licensed in South Carolina and certified in physiotherapy. Dr. Justin enjoys exercising, walking on the beach, hiking, traveling across the world, playing basketball and tennis, and trying new restaurants. He also enjoys working with all types of patients including athletes, geriatrics, pediatrics, and families.
Dr. Justin practices a variety of techniques, including Gonstead, Thompson, SOT, TRT, Activator, Diversified, Extremities, and AK. He believes health is our greatest asset, and through chiropractic, nutrition, and exercise, the quality of our lives will always be great!
Athena was born and raised in Columbia, SC, and is now a resident of St. George. She became passionate about healthcare at a very young age when her mother passed away from lung cancer. She obtained her Associate’s Degree in Science as well as an X-Ray Certification in 2010.
At first, Athena wanted to become a nurse, but with her first job in a chiropractic office, she fell in love with the natural way to heal the body. Athena’s purpose in life is to help as many people as possible, and she has proudly been reaching and inspiring many people for 12 years.
Outside of the office, Athena is spending time with her husband, children and puppy (Ammo). She enjoys any outside activity and is always on the go with family and friends.
