| Dr. Matthew I. Janzen, DC, CCEP, ART |
| Dr. Michael E. Janzen, DC, CCEP, ART |
Our Mission
Dr. Matt and Dr. Mike both went in to the chiropractic health care field because of their
driven desire to provide the most advanced and effective natural health care. They believe in a system of medicine
that attempts to identify and correct the root causes of health problems and not just cover them up with drugs.
Our Philosophy
They have veered from the traditional philosophy of "drugs first, ask questions later" and have
made it their goal to inform the community of safer and effective solutions. The doctors are on the cutting edge of
the future of health care with the latest natural techniques and treatments for effectively treating all types of injuries.
Education
Dr.'s Matt and Mike both attended Palmer College of Chiropractic West and graduated Salutatorian in
1995 and Valedictorian in 1999, respectively. After graduation, both performed their internship with a well-recognized sports
chiropractor, Nick Athens (chiropractor for the SF Giants currently and most of the 49ers from the 80's-early 90's). Here the
doctors were given the opportunity to work with high level and elite athletes of all types.
Specialty Education
After learning from Dr. Athens for almost 1 year, they both began taking post-doctorate and continuing
education courses that emphasized sports injuries. The first was Active Release Techniques (ART) taught by Dr. Mike Leahy of
Colorado Springs. The second was the Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioner (CCEP) taught by Dr. Kevin Hearon of Idaho.
Further training was also attained in prevention of repetitive strain and cumulative trauma injuries from the International
Academy of Chiropractic Occupational Health Consultants.
Volunteer Work
The doctors have annually been invited along with other doctors from around the nation in treating
the tri-athletes at the IRONMAN World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. The doctors also provided complementary care to CityTeam
and the Salvation Army Rehab Center, as well as to various sport organizations throughout the valley. They also provide
community talks to various groups such as Family Life Center in San Jose, and to assisted living retirement homes
throughout the valley.
Sports and Interests
The doctors have always had an interest in sports. From varsity basketball in high school to
recreational triathlons, volleyball, softball, and basketball leagues to windsurfing and weightlifting, the doctors try
and stay active. This allows them not only to stay in shape, but get injured. They know what it's like.
