Along with the growth of Celina, there are expanded opportunities to bring new services for families to our community.
Achieving Milestones Pediatric Therapy PLLC
200 N. New Mexico Drive, Celina
0ne of those businesses is Achieving Milestones Pediatric Therapy PLLC, founded in 2021 by Meagan Dungan. This private therapy center is a collaborative pediatric clinic comprised of speech pathologists, speech therapists, and occupational therapists providing the broadest range of services. The statistics show that about 10% of the growing population of our community will be families raising children with special needs. Their goal is to provide collaborative services with everything from diagnostic assessment/evaluation, treatment, school advocacy, and parent training all the way to graduation.
When you enter the doors of Achieving Milestones, you immediately feel that you and your family are in a safe place where healing can happen and fun can be had along the way. The team currently has seven therapists, all with specialties that allow them to meet the needs of their clients. They have multiple therapy rooms designed to address sensory needs including a parent quiet space to allow parents to have a little downtime while their children are participating in therapy.
Meagan and her family were initially Hurricane Harvey evacuees who spent a month in a hotel in Allen. After weighing their options, they decided to permanently relocate to North Texas. Initially settling in McKinney, they stumbled on Celina on a family outing and knew this was where they wanted to be. The small-town vibe, friendly neighbors, and conservative values resonated with Meagan and her family.
The team’s mission is to help children realize and maximize their unique gift through individualized therapies and services, so that together we can maximize the full potential of every child to fulfill God’s purpose for their life. To learn more, visit AchievingMilestones.org or call 214.851.5555
True Light Chiropractic
501 W. Walnut St, Suite 200, Celina
True Light Chiropractic is another downtown business bringing unique services to our community. Dr. Colton Wood and his wife Dr. Kelsey Wood have lived in North Texas their entire lives and attended Parker University. After welcoming their first child earlier this year, they are raising their family in Celina. The Woods founded True Light in 2019, on the belief that our daily habits should always support the well-being and health of our community and our environment.
Their approach to chiropractic care is neuro-system based, focusing on the function of the body as a whole. They have had a passion for prenatal care of moms and pediatric care starting as soon as new mom and baby are ready. The strategy is to relieve birth trauma early in a child’s life setting the stage for lifelong holistic health. They also have a passion for working with the pediatric population, birth through 18 years of age. Dr. Colton Wood shared his own story of how he became interested in chiropractic care through therapy for his own high school sports injury. That experience opened his eyes to the ability of neuro-system care to address physical symptoms as well as his own teenage battles with anxiety and depression.
It is common to see the Wood family attend Friday Night Markets, sponsor little league and pee-wee sports, participate in local running events, as well as support city-wide events throughout the year. Celina is home for this couple and their growing practice. They are eager to continue that relationship.
In August, True Light Chiropractic will be running their best sale of the year. They are charging $75 for your combined Day 1/Day 2 visits. To get started, connect with their office at (214) 901-8415 where a team member will answer questions and walk you through the process. TrueLightChiropractic.com
