Bissell Chiropractic Sports Medicine in Montecito

Quality Chiropractic Care For Montecito & Santa Barbara

Bissell Chiropractic Sports Medicine Welcomes You!

Bissell Chiropractic Sports Medicine has been delivering quality chiropractic care and physical therapy services to the Santa Barbara community since 1995. Using state-of-the art equipment and cutting edge techniques, our multidisciplinary physical medicine clinic uses an integrative approach to help you live well and feel great.

We are one of the leading Chiropractic offices in Santa Barbara for the treatment of spinal disc problems. We also treat a wide range of conditions other than the spine. Complaints such as neck tension, knee pain, carpel tunnel syndrome and other body aches and pains can be helped with chiropractic care and/or physical therapy.

Our Chiropractic Mission

Our mission is to bring health, motivation and an improved quality of life to as many individuals as possible. We believe that the maintenance of health is far superior to the treatment of disease. Our health is among one of our most valuable possessions.

Our Community Reputation

We have built our reputation on providing honest, reliable healthcare and have become known as the place to go for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. Our goal is to treat the cause of the problem so that our patients get long term relief. Our doctors can order blood tests or sophisticated diagnostic imaging when needed, to ensure they have the proper diagnosis; however, it is NOT our standard procedure to order X-rays for all patients.  Should your case require a diagnostic test or evaluation by another healthcare professional, our staff will obtain all required authorizations and schedule the appointment for you.  

From children to seniors, professional athletes to the weekend warrior, we offer a wide range of services to meet each person’s individual needs. By having chiropractic, physical therapy, spinal decompression, massage, sports medicine and personal training all at one location, we are a “one-stop-shop” for our patient’s physical medicine needs.  We are here to provide peak performance for the body and to help our patients reach their greatest health potential. Regardless of your goals, please understand that we see ourselves as mere servants; you’re the boss! It’s your body, your health and your future. Our job is to offer you options and provide the finest care possible, and it’s up to you to decide how much of it you want. 

We Can Help You

We welcome patients to our office no matter what phase of the healing journey they may be in. From acute injury and pain relief, to chronic pain and injury rehabilitation to injury prevention and wellness care, our office can manage your case from start to finish.

We encourage you to browse our website to learn how our services may be of benefit to you. Of course, when you’re ready, we encourage you to request an appointment with us. For your convenience, appointments can be scheduled for the same day when available.

Dr. Bissell Asks some important questions of interest to Santa Barbara residents - Chiropractor Santa Barbara Dr. Bissell Asks...

Where do most Santa Barbara residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Santa Barbara newborn.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Santa Barbara parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
