About Faison

This Norfolk, VA native’s journey in healthcare began after prep school at Fork Union Military Academy (FUMA) in 1995, where he received a full football scholarship to Ball State University.  At Ball State, Dr. Faison earned an undergraduate degree in Exercise Science and his Masters in Sports Administration.  His graduate studies were followed by internships at the United States Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, CA and the NCAA National Headquarters in Indianapolis, IN.

In 2001, Dr. Faison returned to Ball State to teach in the School of Physical Education before enrolling at Logan College of Chiropractic where he earned a Bachelor in Life Science and Doctorate in Chiropractic in 2007.

At Logan, Dr. Faison was trained to treat musculoskeletal disorders (bone, joint, spine and muscle pain) using evidence-based, time-honored chiropractic treatments, physical/manual medicine, and physiotherapy techniques.  Following Logan, his postgraduate education expanded his range in advanced treatment techniques (acupuncture, trigger point therapy, vacuum therapy and extremity adjusting) and manipulative therapy techniques (Diversified, Gonstead, Activator, Flexion/Distraction).

Dr. Faison’s skill set enables him to combine advanced orthopedic screens with chiropractic care, exercise rehabilitation and nutritional counseling to maximize successful outcomes in patient/client care.  With the decade of experience as a doctor, athlete, and professional bodybuilder, he is 100% prepared to share his vast knowledge to improve his patient’s/client’s movement quality and overall quality of life.

Dr. Faison believes that the integrity, components and systems of the human body will thrive when establishing the following:

  • authentic movement quality–through–active rehabilitation/exercise
  • mechanical functional correction–through–spinal/extremity manipulation
  • proper metabolic function –through –nutritional support/consultation
  • human homeostasis–through–a balance of work/play/sleep
  • loving and nurturing relationships
Dr. Faison remains 100% dedicated to his patient/client’s health care and movement quality.
