Dr. Timothy Esguerra, DC, CCSP® Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician®
Strength coach first. Sports chiropractor second. I treat athletes and active people in Pasadena and Hollywood, and travel for concierge care across LA.
The story
I started in 2012 as a strength coach. Fourteen years working with people of every age and background, helping them get stronger and move better.
That work pushed me to understand the body on a deeper level. I studied Kinesiology, Rehabilitation and Therapeutic Exercise at Cal State LA, where I worked with patients managing neuromuscular conditions and spinal cord injuries. That is where I learned that recovery starts with the nervous system, not just the muscle.
So I became a chiropractor. I earned my Doctor of Chiropractic from Southern California University of Health Sciences, then my CCSP, the sports medicine certification that lets me work with athletes the way I always wanted to.
Today I treat NCAA Division I and pro athletes through rehab and return to sport, and everyday people who just want to live without pain. Same approach for both. Find the cause, treat it, and build you strong enough that it stays gone.
I believe in teaching you what is going on in your own body. You should leave understanding your problem, not just treated for it.
