About US

Yamada Chiropractic is a multi-disciplinary center dedicated to using natural methods to optimize quality of life by eliminating pain, restoring function, and preventing recurrence through education, rehabilitation, and nutrition with personalized care for each patient.

Dr. Jon Yamada and his staff are committed to providing high quality chiropractic healthcare.

In order to provide high quality healthcare, Yamada Chiropractic strives to achieve this methodically while understanding that each individual is unique with his/her own physical, mental, and spiritual history and circumstances.


The first step in optimizing one’s health is conducting a physical examination and assessing one’s diet, exercise, sleep, psychological status, and historical factors.

Consequently, Dr. Yamada may then use techniques to improve flexibility, strength, balance, coordination, and endurance. To further help prevent, decrease and manage pain, referrals to peripheral specialists may be recommended. Dr. Yamada has assembled a holistic team of specialists to meet your needs.
