Our mission:
We understand that an injury can bring significant hardships into your life. Our goal is to restore your functional potential and facilitate a speedy return to your regular lifestyle.
We are able to facilitate the successful recovery for most of our patients with conservative care. For the small percentage of our patients who require surgical treatment, we utilize modern evidence-based techniques while striving to provide the best chance for success with the most minimal surgical invasiveness possible.
We firmly believe that it is our duty to provide all the appropriate information to the patient, but it is up to the patient to make the final decision on the treatment options. As such, we encourage our patients to ask as many questions as they can in order to mutually decide on a treatment plan which would work best in helping them optimize their recovery.
We pride ourselves on being always available and easily accessible for our patients.
Our practice specializes in treating pain and educating our patients in how to live more healthy lives, naturally, without drugs or surgery. We also specialize in women’s health, and work closely with several OB/GYN’s in Torrance and Redondo Beach. Chiropractic care during pregnancy is a safe way to relieve back pain and neck pain.
Here at Anza Pain Treatment Center, we utilize state of the art non-invasive methods and modalities. Our goal is to find the cause of the pain and correct the problem using the safest and most effective methods. We try to avoid having the patients take harmful drugs.
