Dr. Teresa Porter grew up in Bellbrook Ohio, a small suburb of Dayton. She attended The Ohio State University where she received her bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering. Through engineering school, her focus was transforming surgical hip implants. It was during this time that she realized the power of conservative care and preventing people from undergoing surgery in the first place. After graduating from OSU, Dr. Porter moved to St. Louis, MO to pursue her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Logan University. At Logan, she was involved in clubs such as Motion Palpation Institute (MPI), Rehab 2 Performance (R2P), and Forward-Thinking Chiropractic Alliance (FTCA) to help further her education and understanding of chiropractic care. Dr. Porter seeks to be an evidence-based physician that practices within the guidelines of current research. While attending Chiropractic school, she attended countless hours of continuing education courses including Motion Palpation Adjusting, Active Release Technique (ART), Mckenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT), Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM), Dry Needling, Neurodynamics, Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA), Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), and more. Dr. Porter also has clinical experience in a sports medicine-focused chiropractic clinic and a federally qualified health center where she provided care to the underserved community. Outside of the office, Dr. Porter enjoys spending time with friends and family. You can find her watering her house plants, exploring nature, or cooking up a healthy and delicious recipe in the kitchen. Fun Fact: Dr. Porter also has a passion for TACOS! In 2019, she ate 500 tacos collectively over the entire year, and in 2020 she ate 600 tacos. If you ever need some taco advice, stop in and she would be glad to taco bout it.
