Health Professionals in Dallas, TX

Hello! I am a clinical dietitian with an interest in disordered eating behaviors. When I was in high school I saw a lot of my peers struggling with body image, self esteem, and disordered eating. This led me to major in both nutrition and psychology in my undergraduate studies. In my dietary counseling sessions, I provide evidence-based information based on years of experience as a clinical dietitian within a Health At Every Size (HAES) framework. That means I'm focused on your health first, not just your weight. When you decide to work with me you will gain the tools necessary to make healthful decisions with confidence.

Marla Ablon, RDN, LD, graduated with honors from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center of Dallas. As a Board-Certified Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner, Marla shares the ACLM’s vision: “A world in which all physicians and health professionals have been trained and certified in evidence-based lifestyle medicine, integrating healthful behaviors into their own lives, while incorporating a lifestyle medicine-first approach to treating root causes of lifestyle-related diseases into their clinical practices.”

For 20+ years I have built a reputation for treating each patient as one-of-a-kind. Whether treating headaches; back, neck, or shoulder pain; sciatica; plantar fasciitis; carpal tunnel, or any other ailment, I never offer a cookie-cutter approach, but instead focus on spending as much time as necessary to diagnose the underlying problem rather than simply treating the pain or symptom. Using a variety of chiropractic techniques, I adjust carefully, but effectively. I answer questions and always, always make sure my patients leave feeling they've received the very best chiropractic care in Dallas.

Acupuncture - Acupressure for pain, stress, and allergy relief. My goal is to assist people in working toward wellness. Some people are in pain, some have difficult allergies, and some people are living with the results of high stress. Stress, trauma, and injury can lead to chronic pain or illness. Stress can trigger allergies and make them worse. Stress can be the force that pushes people into illness. I use a combination of styles and treatments to aid in the management of stress and the reduction of manifestation of illness and pain.
