Dr. Shawna Ortiz, D.C. is a Max Living Chiropractor in Oklahoma City who is on a mission to transform the health and lives of those in her community through the 5 Essentials of Max Living. As a senior in high school and throughout her undergrad years she suffered from, anxiety, depression, hypothyroid, migraines, extremely severe digestive issues, vertigo and more. The medical system not only failed her but also her grandparents, aunts, uncles and parents.

She was once determined to go to medical school but then decided there had to be something different after seeing the current medical model fail at getting people healthier. God had a different plan for her life and that was apparently to go to chiropractic school where she then became a part of the Max Living student club. She then started to shadow the Max Living chiropractors nearby and got care herself. After getting her spine corrected, ALL of her health issues went away within a matter of a couple of months. From there she was determined to bring that hope and healing to her own community.
