Chiropractic Care

Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating neuromusculoskeletal disorders through manual adjustments. This specialized care improves body function by correcting spinal misalignments, reducing pain, and enhancing nervous system communication. Our certified sports chiropractors combine traditional techniques with modern approaches to address both acute injuries and chronic conditions, helping patients achieve optimal physical performance and overall wellness.

Sports Rehabilitation

Specialized sports rehabilitation programs address injuries and performance limitations for athletes at all levels. Our evidence-based approach combines soft tissue therapy, joint mobilization, and functional training to restore mobility, strength, and athletic capability. With experience treating professional athletes from MLB, NFL, and Olympic teams, we develop customized recovery plans that accelerate healing while maintaining physical conditioning through the recovery process.

Active Release Technique

Active Release Technique (ART) is a patented, state-of-the-art soft tissue system that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. Our certified practitioners use precise movements and manual pressure to resolve scar tissue adhesions and improve tissue flexibility. This technique effectively addresses sports injuries, repetitive strain injuries, and chronic pain conditions by restoring normal tissue function and movement patterns.

Graston Technique

The Graston Technique utilizes specialized stainless steel instruments to detect and treat soft tissue fibrosis and chronic inflammation. Our certified providers use these tools to break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions while stimulating blood flow to injured areas. This evidence-based approach improves range of motion, reduces pain, and accelerates recovery for conditions like tendonitis, muscle strains, and post-surgical scarring through targeted soft tissue mobilization.

INDIBA Radio Frequency

INDIBA Radio Frequency therapy enhances tissue repair and reduces inflammation through controlled thermal effects. This advanced treatment increases deep blood circulation by 79%, promoting faster recovery from acute injuries and chronic conditions. Our practitioners use this technology to improve tissue elasticity, reduce pain and swelling, and enhance sports performance by optimizing cellular metabolism and accelerating natural healing processes.

I started seeing Dr. Stolz during virtual teaching when something wonky was spasming in my back and I am so grateful to my friend who recommended her to me. It is my turn to pay it forward. Dr. Stolz not only targets specific ailments/injuries she helps with whole body healing. EVERY time I leave her office I wish I could bottle that feeling so that I could retrieve it on my own. While she has magical hands, she is extremely science based and is up on research - she is a total Chiro nerd.

She has ordered an MRI, sent me home with exercises, suggested accessories for my car - all in the name of back health. Dr. Stolz has also worked with my teen daughter when she suffered from shin splints. She has a way of connecting and always makes me feel cared for.

If there was an option to give 10 stars I would give them The friendliest and most professional office I have ever seen. Each of the employees make you feel special and always try to find the best times for your appointments. Dr. Calvin Chern helps me feel better every day. For this and many more reasons I recommend this clinic to my friends and family. Thank you all!

I started seeing Dr. Stolz last fall due to piriformis muscle pain and pain down my leg and top of my foot. After just a few sessions I was feeling reduced pain and eventually it went away completely. I credit this to Dr. Stolz's expertise in soft tissue work. She does a tremendous job at doing way more than popping my neck and back. My daughter now sees her and I've recommended her to others as well.

1st Choice Sports Rehab Center is fabulous! I was recommended to 1st Choice due to a locked jaw. It had been locked for over 6 weeks! Every meal was painful. The front desk staff put me at ease immediately, and Dr. Yun was fabulous. He explained everything he was doing and why. He really took an interest in my getting better. I drove over 40 minutes to get there, but would do it again in a heartbeat. #chiropractorsrock

My experience at 1st Choice Sports Rehab Center has been excellent. The staff members are all very professional and efficient. They are taking measures to ensure everyone who visits their office is safe during this pandemic. Dr. Cho has treated my shoulder/neck issues and provided excellent treatment.
