Chiropractic care traces its origins to 1895, when D.D. Palmer performed the first recorded spinal adjustment in Davenport, Iowa, after observing that misaligned vertebrae—later called subluxations—could interfere with the nervous system and affect overall health. Today, chiropractic continues to build on this foundational understanding: when spinal joints are not moving or functioning properly, they can disrupt nerve communication, contribute to inflammation, create muscle imbalance, and lead to both acute and chronic pain.
Because the spine serves as the body’s main structural support and houses the central nervous system, even small misalignments or soft-tissue injuries can trigger widespread symptoms—from mobility limitations to radiating discomfort and recurring tension. When the spine is restored to proper alignment and motion, many patients experience meaningful improvements in comfort, function, and overall well-being. Chiropractic care at Monterey Chiropractic Care in Monterey may help improve the following:
After an initial consultation to assess your condition, our chiropractor will be able to use their findings to make a diagnosis. They’ll then be able to recommend treatment options for you. Our chiropractor at Monterey Chiropractic Care believes that health can be improved and preserved by adjusting these structures, particularly to the spinal column.
Deep, focused adjustments are a specialized method used by chiropractors. Their tools are their hands, and they use them to apply a low level, quick thrust to targeted and specific areas. They focus around the neck, back, and joints. These adjustments loosen up the joints, allowing them to become more flexible, which lessens the patient’s pain and discomfort. Most patients can find relief from pain without the need for prescription drugs or surgical procedures.

Before considering painkillers that may contain harmful substances or side effects to solve your pain problem, choose the natural way to resolve your health issues through chiropractic care.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Diaz for chiropractic care, and she is truly exceptional. She is consistently kind, patient, and genuinely invested in my well-being. Every visit, she takes the time to listen, explain what she’s doing, and make sure I feel comfortable. Her adjustments are always effective, and I leave feeling noticeably better. I’m grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality care.

Dr. Diaz and her staff are amazing. I was scheduled to go out of town for a weekend camping retreat. I spent the night prior to leaving with shooting pain and back spasms. I found her office online. Her staff was able to get me in to see her immediately that morning. She was skilled in her profession. I am generally apprehensive of chiropractors. However, she was gentle. She listened to some of my concerns and she focused her attention to the areas that were hurting. She was also friendly and enjoyable to be next to and I felt immediate relief from her adjustments. I highly recommend her services.

I am so grateful that Dr. Diaz and her office assistants are on top of their game. I had thrown out my neck on a Wednesday and caved into calling them Sunday afternoon. By Tuesday I was adjusted and on my way to recovery. Now they help me maintain my mobility and being more aware of my body. Would recommend!

I was a skeptic, I waited decades to see a chiropractor and the first 3 I went to I didn't feel cared for. I am so glad that I gave it one more try and found Dr. Diaz. She is amazing, caring, she listens, and I feel like I am in amazing hands. My experience has been transformative. The office staff is 10/10 as well

Monterey Chiropractic Care is truly exceptional! Dr. Diaz is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about her patients’ well-being. From the very first visit, she took the time to listen to my concerns and clearly explained my treatment plan. Her adjustments are incredibly effective and have made a huge difference in relieving my back and neck pain. The front desk staff is also amazing friendly, welcoming, and organized. They make every visit smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Dr. Diaz.

I’ve been going to Monterey Chiropractic Care and seeing Dr. Diaz for over a year now, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience. I go for bi-weekly adjustments, and it’s made such a difference. Before I started regular maintenance care, I would only visit a chiropractor when I was dealing with serious neck pain, but now that I’ve been getting consistent adjustments, I rarely encounter the severe pain I used to. Dr. Diaz and the staff are incredibly professional and accommodating, making scheduling appointments (even last minute ones) very easy. I highly recommend Monterey Chiropractic Care and Dr. Diaz

Dr. Diaz is phenomenal. I was never sold on chiropractic care until meeting Dr. Diaz. She has been working with me for almost two years and I feel so much better than I did when we met. I could barely sleep from back and neck pain and my chronic migraines were aggravated. After regular care, my migraines have been cut down significantly. The office is clean and friendly, I love the text message reminders (I need them). I’m so happy here and now I have friends seeing her too! Thank you Dr. Diaz!

Cannot rave enough about Dr Diaz and her amazingly accommodating, friendly, and communicative staff. This office is the warmest, most welcoming medical office I've stepped foot in, from the atmosphere to the accessibility, to the staff who truly care about their jobs and most importantly, their clients. On top of that, Dr Diaz is one of the most compassionate, personal doctors I have ever met, extremely in tune with her clients needs, and always remembers details about anything you share with her. I truly look forward to recharging and rejuvenating with the Monterey Chiro and care team weekly, it is my most crucial form of self care!
