Our Staff
Christine Ellis
Chiropractic X-ray Tech & Chiropractic Assistant
I’ve been a licensed chiropractic X-ray technician and chiropractic assistant since 2018, and I joined the Tri-State team in December 2024. I’m passionate about combining my love for Jesus with my work, supporting and caring for patients as they pursue holistic healing and optimal health.
Makayla Marshall
Chiropractic Assistant
I’ve had the joy of working with Dr. Austin since 2023. I believe true health comes through connection and care, and it’s been so rewarding to witness our patients’ progress while learning more about how a balanced body functions. I first began in therapy and Braincore before moving into my current administrative role. Outside of work, life is full with my boy/girl twins who keep me on my toes! When I get the chance, I love spending time outdoors – whether it’s paddleboarding or hiking.

Our Process
What to expect on your first visit
Each patient’s particular health needs are different. That’s why your initial visit is a little different from subsequent appointments—we first want to know everything we can about the issues that have brought you to us and then plan the course of your treatment.
• We first obtain your complete medical history, including past illnesses, trauma
events, and your regular physical activities.
• We perform a comprehensive examination, including, if necessary, x-ray
imaging of your spine.
• We may also ask you to perform certain physical tasks to further evaluate your l
evel of mobility.
• Using the data we’ve gathered, we advise you on the best treatment plan to
address your particular health needs.
