Doctor of Chiropractic

Helping Families Heal, Grow, and Thrive in South Austin

For Dr. Peter Martinez, health isn’t just a career—it’s a way of life. As a dad of three, he lives what he teaches every day, raising his kids with a natural, connected approach to health. His family’s own health challenges opened his eyes early on: real healing doesn’t come from covering up symptoms, but from finding the root cause and restoring the body’s ability to function at its best.

That’s what led him to chiropractic care—where he saw life-changing results in his own family and discovered his calling to help other families experience the same.

A Voice for Wellness in the Austin Community

Here in South Austin, Dr. Martinez is more than a chiropractor. He’s a familiar voice in the local wellness scene—as a co-host of the MaxLife Austin radio show, a speaker for corporate wellness programs, and a host of community health workshops. Whether he’s on air or in person, his mission is simple: empower families to take ownership of their health in natural, practical ways.

At home, he and his wife are intentional about raising their kids in alignment with those same values—focusing on resilience, adaptability, and the body’s built-in ability to heal. That mix of professional expertise and real-world parenting gives him a unique perspective on what families today truly need to thrive.

A Background Rooted in Service

Before becoming a chiropractor, Dr. Martinez served in high-stakes healthcare settings—working as a paramedic, technical rescuer, and pediatric primary care provider. He even taught emergency medicine to EMTs and paramedics. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Bio-Psychology from Appalachian State University and earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic.

Beyond Austin, his passion for service has taken him on healthcare relief trips to Haiti and to his family’s clinic in Mexico—experiences that shaped his patient-first approach to care.

Always Learning, Always Growing

Driven to stay on the leading edge of natural health, Dr. Martinez continues to study the latest in preventative and neurologically-focused care. His heart is to give families in South Austin access to the kind of healthcare that builds lasting wellness—not quick fixes.
