Who We Are
Serving the Community for Over 75 Years
Jason Fielding, D.C.
Park Ranger
As a native of Bradenton, Dr. Jason Fielding attended Southeast High School as well as the University of Florida, where he was Pre-Med with a major in Exercise Physiology. Dr. Fielding also attended the Florida School of Massage while in Gainesville, where he learned myofascial, neuromuscular, craniosacral, and sports injury rehabilitation techniques. After practicing massage therapy for ten years, Dr. Fielding studied Chiropractic Medicine at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, Florida and graduated in September of 2008 as the Valedictorian of his class. With a passion for health and exercise, he continues to further his understanding of the mind, body, and spirit so he can offer help to patients in various ways. Outside of the office, Dr. Fielding enjoys weight training, hot yoga, traveling, and spending time with his daughter. Dr. Fielding understands that each patient has a unique reason as to why they are seeking treatment as well as a unique history and background story. Therefore, he individualizes his treatment to suit each person as well as avoids unnecessary and expensive treatment protocols. He utilizes a combination of traditional and instrument chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy/fascial manipulation, craniosacral, fascial movement taping, acupuncture, nutritional and dietary prescription, and therapeutic exercise, including relieving/stabilizing yoga postures. He is passionate about health and his career in helping others. He has treated thousands of patients of all ages, from just a few months old to nearly 100 years old, and from everyday people to professional athletes. He truly cares about his patients, and he exemplifies this by seeing only one patient in the office at a time and spending the entire treatment visit with each patient, giving them the individualized care, they need.
Lee Rangel, D.C.
Park Ranger
Dr. Lee Rangel was raised in Blue Island, Illinois along with his other 13 siblings. After knowing he wanted to become a chiropractor, he attended Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. Dr. Lee Rangel is a chiropractic physician who has been in private practice in Florida since 1977. After 17 years, the business aspects of practice caused him significant burn out, so he made a life changing decision…..Don’t stress about the practice, start enjoying your life in the practice. And so, he developed THORASSIC PARK, and was immediately sued by Universal Studios. Don’t stress, as he now owns the trademark and continues to have fun being the Park Ranger while continuing his passion of treating and educating his patients on how to live in a way that adds life to their years. In 2019 Dr. Rangel and his mentee, Dr. Lucas Wilson went into business partnership with the original Thorassic Park. In the same year, Dr. Rangel was involved in an accident resulting in multiple injuries and had to step away from the practice to heal and rehabilitate his injuries. Because of his inability to practice chiropractic as he once did, he sold the original Thorassic Park to Dr. Wilson in 2023. Dr. Rangel’s passion has always been chiropractic and to help people lead a healthier lifestyle, so though he was unable to treat patients in the capacity that he once did, he knew he still had to be involved in some aspect of chiropractic. In 2023, he was in contact with his first mentee, Dr. Jason Fielding and it turns out that Dr. Fielding was leaving his practice location at the time. It was then that Dr. Rangel and Dr. Fielding decided to go into partnership together and Thorassic Park Too came to be.
