Meet Dr. Richard Westbrook, a Doctor of Chiropractic whose own transformative experience as a patient kindled a life dedicated to the healing arts. Dr. Westbrook’s chiropractic journey began in the vibrant corridors of his high school’s track and field events, where chiropractic care not only relieved his back pain but also unlocked a world free from the distress of chronic allergies. It was a revelation that would shape his professional ethos: the profound power of chiropractic adjustments to catalyze the body’s inherent healing capabilities.
His academic quest commenced at Cuesta College with pre-med studies and blossomed at Palmer College of Chiropractic-West, where he embraced the art, science, and philosophy of chiropractic. His time at Palmer did more than equip him with a doctorate; it ignited a ceaseless passion for learning and a profound commitment to patient care.
Dr. Westbrook’s approach to health is meticulous and comprehensive, always starting with a thorough assessment to inform a dialogue with patients about their condition and the journey ahead. His array of techniques is as diverse as it is effective, reflecting his commitment to rapid and lasting recovery.
On a personal note, Dr. Westbrook’s life is rich with partnership and family. Meeting Dr. Cynthia Martin-Westbrook at Palmer was a dual triumph of love and learning, leading to a shared private practice and a family that practices what they preach—regular adjustments are a family affair, underscoring their belief in the chiropractic lifestyle.
His credentials are as notable as his dedication: a graduate of Arroyo Grande High School and Cuesta College, a Board-Certified chiropractor by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners, and licensed by the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners in California. Dr. Westbrook’s professional memberships span the California Chiropractic Association to the local Toastmasters and LeTip International reflecting a commitment to community involvement and communication.
Beyond his chiropractic expertise, Dr. Westbrook thrives in the world of Improvisational Theater and serves as the Director of Monterey Comedy Improv, championing laughter as a companion to wellness.
