One-on-One Sessions with a Highly Qualified Provider
Diversified adjusting, percussion, and decompression in the same room. You see a doctor the whole visit, not an assistant rotating through.
Raised in the Midwest as a three-sport athlete, hockey, football, and baseball, Dr. Dustin earned his B.S. in Human Biology & Chemistry from Minnesota State University, then his Doctor of Chiropractic from Southern California University of Health Sciences. Eleven years in, he combines percussion, active/passive muscle therapy, and soft-tissue work to treat sport and non-sport injuries alike.
“The power that made the body heals the body, we just need to give it the tools to do so.”
A Southern California native, Dr. Tara played collegiate softball at the University of Hawaii, including the 2010 Women's World Series, before studying Kinesiology & Rehabilitation Science, then earning her Doctorate of Chiropractic with Honors from Southern California University of Health Sciences. She treats everyone from youth leagues to professional athletes and general workforce personnel.
“I love hearing about what my patients enjoy, my job is to get them back on the field, court, or studio ASAP.”

“Doctor Dustin is an adjusting savant. I go to chiropractors every 3 months, this man aligns joints and alleviates pressure others miss or can’t get to. The man gives my joints a new lease and leaves me feeling like I can smell colors. Even my nasal passages alleviate and open up. Forever grateful for you doctor 🫡”

“Dustin and Tara at ASAP Chiro have been providing incredible service to me and my family for over 10 years. Time and again he diagnoses your problem and explains the treatment plan in a way that is very effective and gets you back to 100% as quick as possible without compromising the healing process. My daughter played elite soccer growing up and the level of care it took to keep her out on the field and game ready over the years was demanding. But Dustin and Tara would always be there to overcome any injury that came our way.
Most recently I had a severe muscle strain that I was worried would keep me from working. Dustin worked his magic and it feels so great after the treatment. I am confident I will have no issues getting the job done this weekend for my clients. Thank you Dustin. I am forever grateful for the services you have provided us time and time again. I would highly recommend Dustin to anyone looking for Sports Therapy and Chiropractic needs. He and his team are the best in the area.”

What should I expect at my first chiropractic visit in Laguna Hills?
Plan on about 45 minutes. We take a history, examine the joints that actually hurt, and screen for red flags — progressive weakness, bowel or bladder changes, fever, unexplained weight loss. If an adjustment is appropriate that day, we do it. You leave with a plan, not a 20-visit package you did not ask for.
Does PPO insurance cover chiropractic care here?
Most of the PPO plans we see do, when the care is medically necessary. We accept Aetna, Meritain, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of CA, United Healthcare, and Cigna. Call (949) 557-7208 before you book and we will verify the copay. HSA, FSA, and HRA cards are welcome.
Can a chiropractor fix a pinched nerve?
Often we can calm it, if the irritation is mechanical — a stuck joint, an angry disc, or a tight muscle crowding a nerve. We cannot “un-pinch” a nerve that is being compressed by a tumor, infection, or fracture. That is why the first visit is a screening, not a sales pitch.
Can chiropractic help heel-spur pain?
We can often take pressure off the tissue around a heel spur. We cannot dissolve the calcium deposit itself. Foot and ankle mechanics, plantar fascia, and how you walk usually matter more than the spur on the x-ray. If that is your main complaint, say so when you book.
What is a red flag in chiropractic?
Symptoms that mean “do not adjust first”: new bowel or bladder trouble, fever with back pain, pain after major trauma, progressive neurological weakness, or a history of cancer with new spine pain. We check for those before anyone lies on the table.
How much is a chiropractor visit without insurance in California?
Cash-pay is available. A first visit in Laguna Hills includes the exam, so it is not the same price as a follow-up. Call (949) 557-7208 and we will quote both before you book. If you have PPO coverage, we would rather verify that first. HSA, FSA, and HRA cards work here.
Why do some doctors discourage chiropractors?
Old professional turf wars, uneven training across the field, and a few loud bad actors. The American College of Physicians already lists spinal manipulation as a first-line option for low back pain. We work alongside MDs in Orange County when a patient needs both. If your case is outside our scope, we say so.
