Our Mission

Managing any type of pain can be very frustrating and challenging. Our mission at West Seattle Chiropractic is to diagnose and treat you as efficiently and effectively as possible while emphasizing personalized treatment plans and appropriate referrals. Living a pain-free life is something we all strive for, let us help you. 


Chiropractic care is a hands-on type of alternative medicine that does not rely on prescription drugs for treatment. Our services focus on manually manipulating the musculoskeletal system, specifically the spine. These manipulations or adjustments help restore joint mobility that has been diminished by the inflammation and pain caused by tissue injury. By increasing joint mobility, we can alleviate pain and muscle tightness, allowing the tissue to heal, therefore restoring joint range of motion.

More Than Just your Back

Having pain in your shoulders, hips and knees is something that we all experience at one time or another, whether it is due to a specific injury, repetitive motions or just poor sleeping posture.  We are well versed in the diagnosis and treatment of many extremity problems, these can usually be treated with a combination of muscle work, specific adjustments and exercise and stretching protocols.


Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
