Westside Wellness: Los Angeles

Westside Wellness Center is a holistic center for education and prevention programs, non surgical treatments and rehabilitation for professional and amateur athletes, including weekend warriors and adventurists, designed to eliminate acute or chronic pain due to sports injuries.

Our multidisciplinary staff, all athletes themselves, work as a team with each athlete to develop a personalized program to return the person to his or her normal activities as quickly as possible, to prevent future injuries, and maintain a peak level of fitness.

If you participate in any kind of sport, you are likely to incur injuries that may appear to heal, but 5, 10 or 20 years later may come back as pain of unknown origin. If you work at a repetitive task, you may not notice that you are injuring yourself at first, but over time can lead to severe pain, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive stress injuries.

An evaluation can help pinpoint these areas and a treatment plan will help prevent the injury from becoming a permanent or recurring problem.

Healthcare Philosophy

Our philosophy on healthcare is to assist our patients in their healing process on many levels beyond just the physical.

Although our training teaches us to focus on the physical body as the cause of pain and disease, we have found that many of our physical problems stem from and are modulated by emotional, mental, psychological, and spiritual issues.

Not all people heal on the same schedule or in the same way. We provide a healing model with a loving environment. We don't deal in disease; we deal in healing, which is an active process. Our patients are taught to create the concept and feeling of health. We often have to remove a person's diagnosis that he or she has been branded with by other doctors.

Pain does not mean that a person is broken. X-rays and MRI scans frequently do not tell the truth. A common response from patients is "You are all so understanding and supportive." Many of our patients have been to a multitude of other doctors. We need to be different to make the difference.

Our support staff is the heartbeat of our philosophy. We are ever ready to assist you with scheduling, insurance filing and answering your questions.

Call for information about workshops and symposiums for employers and the private sector. A healthy well conditioned work force is essential for a successful business.
