What We Treat
Conditions We Specialize In
Low Back Pain
Modern life keeps us sitting more than ever. We use digital X-rays, precise adjustments, and advanced therapies to help your low back move freely and stay strong.
Neck Pain & Headaches
Neck tension and headaches often come from poor posture, stress, or misalignment. We restore motion so muscles relax and headaches fade — often within a few visits.
Shoulder Pain
Common in weightlifting and jiu-jitsu. Sometimes it's the rotator cuff; other times it starts in the neck. We find the root cause and unlock those stiff shoulders.

FAQs
What happens during my first visit?
Yes, chiropractors are licensed healthcare professionals with a Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) degree. While they aren’t medical doctors (MDs), they undergo years of specialized training in spinal health, musculoskeletal care, and the nervous system. Dr. Monica, for example, is a highly skilled chiropractor in Irvine, CA, offering expert care focused on natural healing and alignment.
Do I need X-rays before getting adjusted?
Chiropractors diagnose and treat conditions related to the spine, joints, and nervous system. They use gentle spinal adjustments and manual therapies to restore alignment, reduce chiropractor joint pain, and improve mobility — helping your body heal naturally without medication or surgery.
How often will I need to come in?
Yes, chiropractic care is generally safe during pregnancy when performed by a trained professional. Dr. Monica uses specialized, gentle techniques to relieve back pain, pelvic discomfort, and postural strain common in expectant mothers.
How long will it take to feel better?
Absolutely. Chiropractic care is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for sciatica. By relieving pressure on the sciatic nerve and improving spinal alignment, Dr. Monica helps reduce pain, tingling, and numbness — allowing you to move comfortably again.
Do adjustments hurt?
Yes — countless patients experience real, lasting relief from chronic pain, poor posture, and nerve issues through regular chiropractic adjustments. Results vary by condition, but consistent care often improves flexibility, alignment, and overall wellness.
What types of treatments do you offer besides chiropractic?
Some traditional medical professionals may discourage chiropractic care due to misconceptions or lack of understanding about the benefits of spinal alignment and nervous system balance. However, modern healthcare increasingly recognizes chiropractic as a complementary, evidence-supported treatment.
What conditions do you treat?
A red flag would be any chiropractor who recommends excessive treatment plans without clinical need, avoids communication with your physician, or ignores your specific symptoms. At The Alignment Studio, Dr. Monica prioritizes transparency, personalized care, and safety in every session.
How are care plans created?
Yes. Regular chiropractic adjustments improve spinal health, posture, mobility, and even circulation. Patients often report reduced stress, better sleep, and improved energy after consistent care.
Do you take insurance?
