About the Doctors Dr. Mollie Ann Pertree, D.C. Dr. James Tyler Pertree, D.C.

		A little about Dr. Mollie: A little about Dr. Tyler:        Before moving to Oklahoma City, I completed my Doctorate of Chiropractic at Parker College in Dallas, TX.  During my internship, I had the opportunity to work with patients of all ages, from newborns to seniors. I decided to focus my practice here in Oklahoma on a greatly under serviced population - that being women and children.        Being a mother of a little boy, I know how much chiropractic helped me both during and after my pregnancy. By keeping the lower back nerves healthy, which supply the uterus, regular chiropractic adjustments helped me with the pain that accompanied pregnancy and also gave my baby the best living environment possible. I have helped several women get through their pregnancies with great results in this area as well.        Our little boy was adjusted for the first time when he was just 7 minutes old! After all, being born is roughly equivalent to the trauma of a car accident.  Before the age of 6, most kids will fall between 2000-3000 times. Knowing this, we keep our little boy well adjusted so that these minor traumas do not become permanent in adulthood.        After completing my Doctorate of Chiropractic at Parker College in Dallas, TX, I moved back to my hometown of Oklahoma City.  During my internship, I was able to perform over 200 patient visits. I also worked as a doctor at an Oklahoma City clinic performing over 2000 patient visits there as well.        I have treated a wide range of patients, from those who come in simply for monthly care to keep feeling their best, all the way to patients who come into the clinic in a wheelchair and need help to stand.        I have also had the opportunity to work with several attorneys and have experience in personal injury, car wrecks, and worker's compensation cases. I have worked with patients of all ages and backgrounds.  I am dedicated to my patients and getting them back to their optimum health is my first priority.          I practice the safest and most effective chiropractic adjusting procedures that I have found to be effective.  We use a much gentler, but highly effective adjusting approach which involves no rotation of the neck or back.
		How We Adjust The Chiropractic Adjustment, which is how we restore normal motion into an affected joint, can be performed in thousands of ways.  The technique we use is taught by a highly trained group of chiropractors called the "Pinnacle Group".  The technique we use has the patient lying face down for the adjustment.  No twisting or torquing of the neck or spine is performed during our adjustments.  It is a much more gentle technique than many of the ones practiced in the world today, but is just as effective if not more so.  Many of our patients feel better with just a few treatments, reguardless of how long their symptoms have been going on.  Though pain is a poor indicator of how much the body has healed, it is an important one to you as a patient.  After the pain is gone, the remaining adjustments performed are to help retrain the supporting muscles, help hold the spine in the correct position, and rehabilitate the injured areas.  Treatment can extend from a few weeks to a few months depending on the severity of the case.
