Dr. Cheryl Silva graduated cum
laude from Parker College of Chiropractic in 1997, where she was
awarded the Karl Parker Award for Scholastic Excellence.
She also attended Texas Woman's University and holds a B.S. in
Anatomy. Although, Dr. Cheryl treats all types of patients, she finds herself especially drawn to the health issues of women and children. Many of her female patients seek her services because they feel more comfortable with a woman chiropractor and feel that she is more sympathetic to certain female issues. She also finds herself treating a large number of children because her patients feel that she has a more gentle style of adjusting. Dr. Cheryl has experienced pregnancy first hand and is familiar with and sympathetic to the chiropractic needs of the pregnant patient. Silva Chiropractic is equipped with a special table for pregnant patients and a fun children's "tiger" adjusting table. Dr. Cheryl is certified in the Webster Technique for breech babies.
Dr. Cheryl is a member of the International Chiropractic
Pediatric Association and is a patron of the Children's Health
Environmental Coalition. She is very proactive in the
nutritional needs of women and children and the avoidance of
environmental toxins and stressors. She is also a member
of the Texas Chiropractic Association, the Mansfield Women's
Division of the Chamber and the Mansfield Area Chamber of
Commerce.
In her "spare time", when she's not taking care of the business, household or Catarina, Dr. Cheryl likes to exercise, shop and plan family vacations. |
