What We Treat
-
Muscle Strains & Sprains
Sudden pulls or overstretching during workouts can lead to lingering pain and reduced mobility. We help speed up recovery and restore normal motion with focused, hands-on care.
-
Shoulder Pain & Rotator Cuff Issues
Athletes who lift, throw, or swing often develop shoulder problems. Our shoulder pain chiropractic care restores alignment, reduces tension, and builds stability to get you back to full range of motion.
-
Knee Injuries & Overuse Pain
From runners to weightlifters, knee irritation is common. We identify mechanical causes, reduce joint stress, and improve alignment to help protect your knees long-term.

Low Back Tightness & Lifting Injuries
Heavy lifts, bad form, or fatigue can cause spinal strain. We use targeted adjustments and mobility work to relieve pressure and support strength-based recovery.

Dr. Stein keeps me feeling in top shape and helps me recover faster from doing the things I love! He’s incredible at working with athletes and has a deep well of knowledge about the body. He truly cares about his patients and always goes the extra mile! I’d highly recommend his care to anyone looking to feel free of pain and perform at their highest level.

I feel better and train harder than ever before since I started visiting Dr. Stein on a weekly basis! I haven't experienced any injuries (training as much as 20 hours per week), and I've noticed significant improvements in my performance.

I have been going to Stein Chiropractic since 1993. Every few years my back would go out and I could barely get in a car. After 2 or 3 visits I was back to normal. Dr. Stein showed me exercises that helped me prevent the problem. It has been over 15 years since I have had a serious problem. I go regularly, do my exercises and have kept surfing and snowboarding into my mid 70's
