Our team of Santa Barbara chiropractors that comprise Advanced Chiropractic Group have been serving the Santa Barbara and Goleta area for over 25 years. "Our greatest referral system has always been our patients, I think that says something about the quality of care you can expect."

If you are seeking pain relief, rehabilitation or just a healthier lifestyle, Advanced Chiropractic Group is your home for quality chiropractic care and rehabilitation in Santa Barbara. For over twenty five years, our Santa Barbara chiropractors, Dr. Michael P. Hergenroether, Dr. Michael S. York and Dr. James A. Cochran, have been helping Santa Barbara and Goleta area patients safely recover from auto accidents and personal injury. Our mission is to promote whole body wellness and health through non-invasive treatments and community education, and also by addressing both chronic and acute back pain, neck pain and extremity complaints.

Chiropractic is from the Greek "cheiros praktikos", which means "done by hand." This reflects the hands-on, drug-free care that we provide our patients. We help patients manage back pain, neck pain, sciatica and other chronic pain through natural, non-invasive treatments, including spinal manipulation. These treatments can correct and prevent both chronic and acute disorders of the musculoskeletal system and nervous system.

In addition to non-invasive care such as activator adjustment and spinal manipulation, we also offer adjunctive therapies and rehabilitation treatments that speed internal healing and naturally relieve pain. These therapies include percussion massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, cold laser therapy, ultrasound, electrical stimulation, mechanical traction and corrective exercises for rehabilitation. We also can create custom orthotics, and offer orthopedic supports and lifts for patients.

We believe in a whole body approach to wellness. This means that our goal is not only to relieve pain, but also to correct the underlying cause of this pain. Many injuries can cause a misalignment in the musculoskeletal system. This leads to chronic pain that can affect patients for months or even years after the initial injury. For example, a herniated disc in the lower back can compress nearby nerves, including the sciatic nerve, leading to pain in the back, legs and buttocks. This condition, known as sciatica, can make living an active life impossible.

While prescription painkillers can temporarily relieve sciatica pain, medication cannot correct the herniated disc. Spinal manipulation is a safe and non-invasive treatment that can restore alignment to the lower back and stabilize the herniated disc, relieving pressure on the sciatic nerve. This is just one example of the many ways that chiropractic care is relieving pain and changing people’s lives every day.

Our Santa Barbara chiropractors are passionate about whole body wellness, and committed to doing everything possible to help optimize your well being for an active and healthy life. We leverage the benefits of metagenics to ensure your body receives the right balance of nutrients and vitamins. Patients may also use our website for quick, easy and secure ordering of metagenics through our online store.
