Dr. Micah Carter - Chiropractor

Dr. Carter discovered chiropractic care while suffering from chronic migraines and it changed his life. Since graduating Magna Cum Laude in 2002, he’s brought that same relief to thousands of Oklahoma City patients. He specializes in treating auto accidents, herniated discs, pregnancy care, and pediatric chiropractic. With advanced certifications in spinal trauma and a teaching background, Dr. Carter makes complex conditions easy to understand.

Ital’e - Therapy Assistant

When I’m not diving into my latest studies or getting hands on with a creative DIY project, you can usually find me in the kitchen whipping up something delicious to the beat of my favorite Jazz playlist! I absolutely love a high energy, competitive atmosphere and truly believe that we shine brightest when faced with a challenge. For me, there is nothing more rewarding than channeling that “can do” spirit into helping others achieve their health goals and discover what their bodies are truly capable of!

With a solid background in Physical Therapy, Athletic Training, and Massage Therapy, I have dedicated my career to having a massive heart for service. I am deeply passionate about advocating for our community, promoting a healthier lifestyle that balances both physical and mental well-being. I thrive on inspiring others to embrace a more physically active lifestyle, which is truly the best part of my job.

Melisa - Therapy Assistant

Melisa grew up on a wheat and cattle farm in northwest Oklahoma, where she acquired her work ethic and her love for the outdoors. She grew up driving wheat trucks and riding horses and has been married to Dr. Carter since before he was a chiropractor – 31 years.

After college, Melisa landed a teaching position at a technical school in Goodland, KS, where she taught business and computers.. After earning a Master’s in Technical Education during their 3 years in Goodland, Dr. and Mrs. Carter moved from the Great Plains to the Big City – Dallas, TX. for Chiropractic school. Melisa taught online college business courses and travelled the US and the world as a technical trainer for an international Control Systems corporation.

While in Dallas, the Carters made so many life-changing health changes – healthy/clean eating, exercise and stretching, chiropractic care, etc. Melisa continues to avidly research natural, health innovations.

Melisa has utilized chiropractic care personally and for her family for over 30 years and has been an integral part of Family Tree Chiropractic since opening 23 years ago. Her favorite part of working in the office is seeing the amazing improvements in patients’ health once they begin chiropractic care! She also LOVES interacting with patients. Family Tree really is like a huge, extended family!

When she’s not helping people with therapies, taking x-rays, or managing the office, Melisa homeschools her youngest of 4 kids and enjoys spending time with family and friends at the lake, fishing or doing water sports, camping, or just enjoying a sunrise or sunset outdoors.

Angelica - Patient Advocate

Angelica thrives at the intersection of compassion, adventure, and family. With over four years of experience in the medical field as an EMT, working on the front lines has shaped her into a calm, quick-thinking, and resilient professional who values teamwork, empathy, and community care. At Family Tree Chiropractic, Angelica serves as a patient advocate, ensuring every person who walks through our doors feels heard, supported, and informed from their very first interaction.

Outside of work, she shares her life with her husband and two cats, and intentionally protects Saturday family time as sacred. If you’d like to experience the kind of care Angelica and the rest of our team provide, contact us today to schedule your first visit.
