Dr. Madison Ryan D.C.

She earned her bachelor’s degree in Health and Exercise Science with a minor in Psychology from the University of Oklahoma and went on to complete her Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Parker University.
Her journey into chiropractic care started after a cheerleading injury in high school, when she experienced firsthand the benefits of natural, hands-on healing.

She specializes in working with children, expecting mothers, and families, providing compassionate and personalized care that encourages long-term wellness.

Veronica Metkowski
SOCIAL MEDIA AND MARKETING
Originally hailing from the frozen tundra of Minnesota, Veronica made the great escape to DFW in 2021—and hasn’t looked back since! She earned her degree in Communications and Journalism with a Business minor from the University of St. Thomas, launching her into a career in marketing and events. With a passion for crafting memorable brand experiences, she thrives on bringing creative ideas to life and making an impact.
When she’s not busy building brands, you’ll likely find her soaking up the sun—preferably poolside or near any body of water. And if she’s not splashing around, she’s probably sipping a latte at one of her many favorite local coffee spots.
Veronica has always embraced a holistic lifestyle, regularly seeing chiropractors throughout adulthood. But after moving to DFW, chronic migraines had her searching for real relief. Enter Dr. Tori! Six months later, she was able to ditch her migraine medication for good. Now, she’s all-in on natural wellness and loves discovering holistic alternatives to everyday health challenges.

Karen Crockett, CHP
NUTRITIONIST AND HEALTH COACH
Karen is a 5th-generation Texan from Friendswood and a proud Abilene Christian graduate, where she met her husband. She later served in Children’s and Worship Ministry in Dallas for five years before staying home to raise their amazing kids.
Motherhood deepened her understanding of what truly fosters health and well-being, guiding her toward holistic approaches and a long-held dream of supporting families on their healing journeys.

As a Christian Health Practitioner (CHP), she takes an integrated, whole-person approach—considering physical, emotional, spiritual, mental, and environmental factors. For Karen, lasting healing means not only resolution but education and empowerment. She’s a strong advocate for chiropractic care, homeopathy, pelvic floor therapy, and acupuncture.
Karen loves early morning walks, strength workouts with neighborhood friends, iced matcha, ’70s/’80s rock and Christian music from every decade, time outdoors, podcasts, reading, cooking nourishing meals, and diving into The Bible Recap—all while cherishing time with family and friends.

Gabriela Fumero
SUNNY, THE OFFICE MASCOT
Hi, I’m Gabriela aka Gaby aka Sunny! I received my BFA in Theater from the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, and while I now work in finance, I’ve never left my love for the stage behind: Sunny the Mascot is my current favorite role!
I first came to Sunlife Chiropractic in 2024, after struggling for the last 10 years with PCOS and undiagnosed Endometriosis. I met Dr. Tori two months before my first endometriosis surgery, and meeting Dr. Tori and the team at Sunlife was such a true blessing. She not only supported me through recovery but has also helped me manage the ongoing symptoms of my chronic illness. I love and am so grateful for the care I’ve received that I knew I needed to be a part of this team and tell everyone about how wonderful and amazing Sunlife Chiropractic is, so when I’m not getting adjusted or at our Sunlife book club you can find me stepping in as the mascot and Sunlife hype woman!
Couple of fun facts: I love writing poetry, singing at my church, playing pickleball and tennis, and of course, treating myself to a nice iced coffee with a gluten-free pastry! 🌞
