Patient comfort and well being are a primary concern of West Coast Wellness. Techniques utilized require maximum skill and dexterity. These techniques are the most gentle and the most effective in our profession.

At West Coast Wellness, we not only focus on relief from pain, but on prevention and correction. We get to the source of your problem. We find it. We fix it. We keep it corrected. We don’t treat the pain that has the patient. We treat the patient that has the pain.

The benefits of chiropractic care include: a pain free lifestyle, increased stamina and energy, higher self esteem, boosted immune function, increased range of motion, osteoarthritis prevention, and most importantly, a fully functioning nervous system allowing optimum health.

  • Chiropractic Care
    We provide advanced spinal correction in our San Diego practice utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before.
  • Corrective Exercises
    We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%.
  • Lifestyle Advice
    We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most.
  • Nutritional Counseling
    We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patients' return to optimal health. As well as a specific Detoxification program.

  • X-ray and Digital motion radiographs Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX) is simply a new type of fluoro-based x-ray system, coupled with new digital and optic technology, allowing clinicians to view the spine in real-time motion at 30 x-rays per second. The procedure is performed with the patient standing and actively moving in a weight-bearing position within the system
