This page of the blog is a fictitious story. The story would probably fit about a hundred thousand kids in the U.S. though. It is not a true story, but it reads like one. I met a kid this week here in San Diego. She is in her early teens. When she was younger she…
Chiropractic Adjusting Tools
We had a great experience today at the office regarding our website, and its comunication with the world. We had an amazing new patient come in today. I would love to tell about her in detail, but she might sue me 😉 She had gone to a chiropractor in the bay area who had used…

San Diego Chiropractor in San Francisco
Well we made it! We spent the morning in the old Carson City Mint, now a museum. Without giving away the finale, make sure to stop there and ask to see what is in the basement. It was one of the coolest low tech things I have ever seen in a museum. It is literally…
