Dr. Truax

General Chiropractic

Santa Rosa Beach, FL

We grew up ten years apart (guess who’s older?!), in different parts of the country, and in very different settings. Rob spent his time roaming free among the farmland and mountains of upstate New York, while Katie grew up in the suburbs of an old city in North Carolina. We both spent a lot of time alone as kids, and by the age of nine, we had each started our own small businesses! Katie made greeting cards to order for her neighbors (Katie’s Cards Inc.) and started regular babysitting jobs shortly thereafter; Rob started a landscaping business mowing lawns and stacking woods for the other folks living in his small town. As we got older, we both did well in school and pursued (A LOT of) higher education. Our paths were pretty windy and long. Rob started out in electrical instrumentation and controls, but boredom and the recovery from a car accident in his early twenties drove him south to pursue a Doctorate in Chiropractic. Katie continued down the artistic path, and attended art school until a confluence of events— including the tragedies of September 11th and an intro to psych class— lit a fire within to practice with people, not paper, as a life’s work. We each married young, for admirable, but wrong reasons. Around that same time, we met at church, and connected as part of a big group of peers in the Atlanta suburb where we lived. When each of our marriages dissolved years later. . .we started dating . . . on the rebound. Yikes! THAT WAS 2006. Now, many years later, we are HAPPILY married. Entrepreneurs to the core, we went into business together as soon as the wedding was over. At the time, Rob had bought, grown, and sold a chiropractic business on the outskirts of Atlanta, and was ready to do it again. Katie had worked for a non-profit for several years as a therapist, and was itching to go out on her own. With a passion to combine our skillsets and support our clients and patients mind, body, and spirit, we built an integrative wellness center in the heart of Buckhead, Atlanta. Despite opening in a recessive economy, through hustle, grit and high quality services, we were able to grow that business to have an outstanding reputation with a size of 14 clinicians and sell it for a sizeable profit in just 5 ½ years.

Dr. Braxton Turnage, DC Founder | Chiropractor Dr Braxton graduated Valedictorian of Texas Chiropractic College in 2009, and served as president of the Council on Sports Injuries there. He then moved to Australia with his wife Dr Julie to start their chiropractic careers. They initially planned to stay for 2 years, but loved Australia and stayed there until 2022, where they had a very busy family chiropractic practice. They decided to move closer to family during covid travel restrictions. Upon returning to America, along with their 2 children, they traveled around in an RV for 12 months in search of a new place to call home, and found Freeport to be that place!
