Dr. Kent S. Salholm, DC, Garden Grove, CA, 92840

Chiropractic Practice Description

Dr. Salholm graduated from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in 1986. He became frustrated when he noticed that so many Chiropractors were recommending far more care than many patients needed. He felt it was clear that most patients that visit a Chiropractor get great results with only short-term care so he established T.L.C. Chiropractic in January 1988, and has offered conservative and trusted treatment since that time.

Dr. Salholm relies on his extensive experience and educational background to perform very thorough evaluations of his patients in order to arrive at an accurate diagnosis, often eliciting key findings missed by other providers. An accurate diagnosis usually results in a much faster recovery. The treatment is then tailored specifically to each patient’s own individual needs, including not only Chiropractic adjustments, but also any necessary physiotherapy. He personally show his patients stretching exercises that they can use in order to get out of pain faster, and reduce the need for in office treatment. Dr. Salholm has been trusted to provide second opinions on difficult cases for many years. In fact, Dr. Salholm is the personal Chiropractor to several other Chiropractors, Medical Doctors, and even Chiropractic College Professors! Dr. Salholm loves being a Doctor of Chiropractic, and is honored to care for so many patients and families in Southern California.
