Dr. Ashley & Our Team

Chiropractor

Dr. Ashley was born and raised in Tyler, TX. She grew up with a desire to become a doctor and help others, but was limited by traditional medicine ideology in her education. During graduate school, she worked ER shifts as a scribe at Trinity Mother Frances Hospital to pursue her childhood goal.

After some time working in the ER, she began suffering from debilitating migraines and generally declining health. Dr. Ashley sought the help of a chiropractor for the first time in 2010. Following recovery, she realized chiropractic is the foundationally better approach to achieving wellness. In 2011, she enrolled in Parker College of Chiropractic to help others reach optimal health and graduated in 2014.

Dr. Ashley and her husband, Terry, opened Foundation Chiropractic in the fall of 2015 and have steadily grown as a community.

After suffering a health crisis in late 2016, Dr. Ashley and Terry established significant lifestyle changes to reduce toxicity and improve their general health. Together they lost 120 lbs, take no prescription medication, and simply enjoy life without the drain of poor health. They now share this passion by educating their patients how to reach similar goals.

Dr. Ashley is a member of ICPA (International Chiropractic Pediatric Association) and is certified in Perinatal Care including preconception, prenatal, and postpartum care, as well as Pediatric Care through the Peak Potential Institute. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200) and is certified in Prenatal Yoga instruction. She loves taking care of families at all ages and stages of life.

Terry Mayes

Chiropractic RN

A registered nurse of 30 years, Terry spent the majority his career in emergency departments from Houston to Texarkana and many in between. Working in the ER, a very stressful environment, led to a poor diet and health habits. By age 40, he was 70 pounds overweight & on daily aspirin because of an intermittent irregular heartbeat and blood pressure medication. He also struggled with migraines, severe seasonal allergies, chronic sinus infections, chronic knee/ankle/foot pain and numerous stomach issues.

A few years later, a severe stomach infection caused him to truly realize the direction of his health status and he finally started listening to his wife. With lifestyle and dietary changes, along with keeping his nervous system firing by getting adjusted regularly, he began taking better care of himself. Terry earned a certification in Functional Medicine and began implementing those concepts into his own health regimen and lifestyle.

Born and raised in East Texas, Terry is very familiar with the obstacles to health and wellness in this area and how to overcome them. He works closely with Dr. Ashley to ensure our patients are on the path to a healthy immune system and a better life.

Office Manager/Chiropractic Assistant

I've been with Foundation for almost 3 years now and it's been so good! I am a momma to 3 sweet crazy boys (Jackson 7, Mason 3, and Judson 2). I've been married 10 years in May '24 to my best friend Mark. Thankfully, working here I have undergone treatment and no longer suffer from chronic migraines and neck pain. Since working here, I have learned a healthier lifestyle and strive to maintain that!
