About Our Practice

My practice is at 80-545 Highway 111, Suite B in Indio, California.  I am certified by the State of California to teach Continuing Education courses for Chiropractors. One of my topics is The Chiropractor as a Trusted Primary-Care Physician: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Referral of Challenging Cases.

My goal is always to get you, the patient the most efficient treatment available. I work to give you relief, manage your symptoms and get you back to your daily activities as quickly as possible.

Upon Arrival

The more I know about you and your condition, the better I can help you. Any tests that have been done on any part of your body, such as X-rays, CAT scans, MRIs, EMGs, etc., are important for me to know in order to help you in the most efficient possible manner. I also need to know about any surgeries or conditions, even if you don’t think they are pertinent.

I will then sit down with you to discuss your history and condition. I always want to hear your story, not just what is typed into the computer. This first consultation is very important so that I can best decide how to help you. This will be followed by an examination. After the examination, we will conduct another conversation about the findings, whether I think I can help your condition, and what I want to do for you as treatment.

Everyone is an individual, and I am interested in knowing everything about your condition, how your body works, and along the way, how you respond to treatment. My office is next to the hospital because I think it is very important to work within the medical establishment. I work with your medical doctors, not against them. I have many patients, including MDs, RNs, LVNs, and hospital staff.

I vary my treatments depending on your needs. My manipulations vary from very light to forceful; however, I use the least force necessary to help your condition. I always use soft tissue work, which may involve myofascial release, acupressure, trigger point, vibratory massage, stretch release, and other soft tissue work. I also use various physiotherapy modalities, including ultrasound, computerized electrical therapy, and vasopneumatic procedures. I always talk about home care during the treatment phase, and about how to take care of your condition after treatment ends. This will include stretching, exercises, activities of daily living, and ergonomic (workplace) adaptations. My goal is always to get you the most efficient treatment available.
