Restore Family Chiropractic

Dr. Marisa and Dr. Todd met at church at Ohio State University, just days after Dr. Todd finished his first masters degree at Liberty University. Dr. Marisa grew up in Mercer County, Ohio, and has been under chiropractic care since she was an infant. Her exposure to her childhood chiropractor put her on the path to studying for her doctorate of chiropractic in Dallas, where in 2009, she joined MaxLiving and learned the importance of the mission of chiropractic.

After Dr. Todd received a few more Masters degrees, the two moved to England so Dr. Todd could receive his PhD from the world class Warwick University, with most of his studies at Oxford. There, Dr. Marisa spread the Five Essentials to England by having Europe’s first MaxLiving office on the edge of London. Dr. Todd finished his PhD, worked as a stuntman at some major studios, and won the European Powerlifting Championship. At the birth of their daughter, Alaina, they returned to Ohio to be with family. Dr. Marisa’s pregnancy and birth experience with a Webster-certified chiropractor in London helped awaken her to the need that pregnant women and newborn babies have for chiropractic.

Working in chiropractic was never in the plans for Dr. Todd, as he was on a course towards an academic career, having served as a professor at a few different universities in England and Ohio. But in 2017, doctors discovered a heart failure so advanced that 9 out of 10 people die within a year. Dr. Todd knew that if he did what those 9 out of 10 people did, he’d get what those 9 out of 10 people got. Once he was out of the woods, he quit academia and dedicated himself to teaching the message of health. Real health.

In 2021, they had another baby, Levi, and the sense of family brought them to dedicate their mission to helping whole families, not just individuals, to chiropractic. Together, they are on a mission to spread health to Central Ohio.
