Dr. John Thomas

Board Certified Sports Chiropractor, Dr. John Thomas, known by his patients as “The Running Doctor”, has amassed an amazing following of fans ranging from world-wide professional marathon runners, WNBA players, and college athletes, to celebrities in the film, TV, and music industries and of course everyone else in between. In practice since 1995 and involved with music since childhood, Dr. Thomas, a triathlete, marathon runner and music producer/voice-over talent, is very well known for his protocol called “Dr. Thomas’ Muscle Stripping Protocol” which was made popular through his role as team doctor for a Foot Solutions, Inc. International Marathon Team. He has also enjoyed much success in the music industry as a professional music producer, composer, recording artist, jingle writer, voice-over talent and celebrity chiropractor.

Dr. Thomas has been in practice for over 25 years and has owned and operated four multidisciplinary clinics. He is most known for his Muscle Stripping Protocol and Full Body Detox Program. Many of the clinical trials during the developmental phases of Dr. Thomas’ Muscle Stripping Protocol were done with the consent of dozens of professional runners from all over the world. The proven efficacy of Dr. Thomas’ Muscle Stripping Protocol would not have been made possible without the valued input of some of the world’s most talented and internationally known marathon runners. Dr. Thomas' 4-Step Muscle Stripping Protocol is based around the premise that physical activity causes micro-tears in muscles. In response, the body forms scar tissue or adhesions as part of the healing process. Over time, muscles with adhesions become shorter, tighter and less flexible. These tight short muscles may stress joints, fracture bones, alter biomechanics and set the stage for the onset of arthritis. Dr. Thomas' 4-Step Muscle Stripping Protocol can prevent these injuries by breaking up adhesions in the muscle thereby allowing for subsequent elongation, improved biomechanics, range of motion, muscle power, speed, endurance, agility, flexibility and speedy recovery from training and competition.

After obtaining certification in IDD Accuspina Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression from North American Medical and Manipulation Under Anesthesia, Dr. Thomas worked tirelessly with medical doctors in the area of manipulation under anesthesia to assist patients with severe joint fixation pathologies.
