A California native and life-long athlete, Dr. Whitten has long been fascinated with the human body’s capacity for physical and mental adaptation. He attended San Diego State University where his passion for pushing the limits of human performance led him to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology (the study of movement) with specializations in nutrition and health. He graduated, cum laude with honors. He went on to receive his Doctorate of Chiropractic from Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles, California where he graduated Salutatorian, summa cum laude. In addition to working with patients day-in and day-out since 2006, Dr. Whitten has worked tirelessly to advance his education.

He has spent years researching and studying with experts in manual medicine and rehabilitation from the Czech Republic, and with brilliant clinicians in the field of functional neurology here in the United States. He was also one of the first Doctors in the United States to be awarded the prestigious status of Certified Wellness Practitioner by the ICA Council on Wellness Science.

Utilizing this diverse background, Dr. Whitten has developed a unique approach to the resolution of chronic pain. The Pain Fix Protocol blends the latest scientific research with essential concepts from the fields of natural movement, evolutionary health, nutrition, spinal hygiene, self-care and human performance. The Pain Fix Protocol goes beyond just treating pain, and instead, effectively treats the whole person.
