About

Dr. Mark Childress

Dr. Mark Childress
Dr. Childress is a Chiropractor in Overland Park, KS, who believes in treating the whole person—helping patients of all ages achieve a healthier, more balanced life.

After experiencing a variety of health concerns at age 30, Dr. Childress was introduced to chiropractic medicine which he responded incredibly well to. His healing journey from that point on fascinated him and drove him to become a chiropractor himself.

Years later, Dr. Childress’s own sudden and acute pain led him to seek relief from Dr. Milton Dowty, a chiropractor in Wichita, KS who had developed a technique called Bio Systems Integration (BSI) or more commonly, Chiropractic Plus Kinesiology (CPK). The technique was so gentle and effective, Dr. Childress decided to learn and use CPK in his own chiropractic practice.

No matter what your symptoms are, Dr. Childress approaches patient care with compassion and determination. He understands what it’s like to experience serious and painful health issues, and he works hard to deliver life-changing chiropractic care to those he treats.
“I pride myself on utilizing the most innovative and effective techniques and equipment available to assist my patients in their ability to heal as quickly and efficiently as possible.”

About Midwest Holistic Health & Spinal Care Center

Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, the team at Midwest Holistic Health & Spinal Care Center places an emphasis on improving your health in an effort to reduce the likelihood of future pain and illness. Preventive care is crucial in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and our expert staff is specially trained in preventing and treating common structural, neurological and physical conditions.

We offer an alternative to traditional chiropractic treatments. Rather than painful snaps, cracks and adjustments, Dr. Childress practices a variety of chiropractic techniques to address upper and lower back pain, neck pain, hip pain, frequent headaches and more. This includes Chiropractic Plus Kinesiology (CPK), a “gentle” chiropractic technique where soft, sustained pressure is applied to correct the damaged tissue.

In addition to chiropractic care, Midwest Holistic Health and Spinal Care Center works with patients to achieve balance in their mental health as well using neurofeedback. This noninvasive technique maps and balances brain waves to treat conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, PTSD, bipolar disorder and more.

Dr. Childress also provides whole-body care to those experiencing chronic illness or unwanted symptoms. We identify and address common ailments and imbalances using a variety of holistic techniques including functional medicine and nutrition response testing through bionetic screening.
