I chose to attend Life Chiropractic College West for reasons of proximity and academic freedom. After my first week on campus, I never looked back! In three and one half years, I evolved into a doctor that I had never imagined. The extraordinary chiropractic history and the powerful chiropractic health philosophy cemented my foundation. What a blast!

The crowning accomplishment of my chiropractic education was the resolution of my own chronic health problems. Specifically, I had been suffering for over ten years from low back pain, sciatica, knee pain and digestive problems. After my first NUCCA spinal correction, they all began to dissipate and later completely heal within weeks. My appreciation for total body alignment by way of NUCCA spinal corrections grew immensely. I knew then that this cutting edge procedure would lay the groundwork for my future practice.

After more than 25 years of practicing NUCCA Upper Cervical Chiropractic in San Mateo County, as the Chiropractor in Redwood City, I have routinely witnessed patient results that would clearly be labeled as healing miracles. I am both awed and humbled by the body’s ability to heal, given the right health care and environment. I sincerely believe that an essential part of the healing platform is correcting body in-balance. Specifically, body distortions manifesting as long/short leg phenomena and twisted body framework presenting as high/low hips and shoulders are all correctable… after the very first NUCCA spinal correction. These stabilize over subsequent days and weeks and give meaning to the term “If you change the structure, you change the function.”

The vital flash-point of change happens within the patients nervous system as it goes from a bio-mechanically stressed state into one of ease. A beautiful healing experience. Mainstream health care often overlooks the nervous system. Unless you suffer the unfortunate and permanent central nervous system injury like that of actor Christopher Reeve, your bio-mechanically stressed circuits largely go undiagnosed and unnoticed. This is the vacuum that I fill by way of NUCCA analysis and spinal correction. In my experience, this is the missing key to unlocking the body’s healing potential.

Aside from being a Redwood City Chiropractor, my wife and I are busy raising two small children. Any free time I have away from my office and family is spent catching up with friends and relatives. I have always been a current events devotee, especially if it has to do with health, politics or spiritual issues. My wife thinks I’m an information aficionado.

I teach at my chiropractic alma mater on a part-time basis as a way of fulfilling my need to give back to my profession. I have taught what I love and treasure the most about health care, NUCCA and nutrition.

The odd twist in my twenty year development as a NUCCA chiropractor, is the inverse relationship my personal spinal care has with my degree of exercise. Don’t get me wrong, I’m no couch potato. I have developed strategic mini-exercise routines that can support my work and at times be very therapeutic for both me and my patients. My personal challenge in my forties and now in my fifties, will be to maintain physical strength. Nonetheless, I am very appreciative of the personal health benefits from NUCCA care and extraordinary nutritional habits. And one more thing, I have a low tolerance for toxins…
