Chiropractic & recovery care for San Clemente, CA
If you live near San Clemente Pier and you are tired of being in and out of a visit in ten minutes, our Laguna Hills clinic is about 20 minutes from San Clemente via I-5 at Avenida Pico. Dr. Dustin Hack and Dr. Tara Hadden still run one-on-one sessions — adjustment, muscle work, and a plan you can actually follow.
From the the Pier Bowl district area of San Clemente, expect around 20 minutes via I-5 at Avenida Pico to reach Merit Circle. Patients near San Clemente Pier and the the Pier Bowl district area regularly build Aligned Health into their regular care routine, not just a one-time visit.
A lot of San Clemente patients arrive after they have already tried rest, a heating pad, and “it should loosen up.” If the joint is stuck or a disc is irritated, stretching alone rarely fixes it. That is the conversation we have on visit one.

Common questions
San Clemente patients ask.
Do you see patients from San Clemente?
Yes. San Clemente is one of the communities we treat every week, including people who live near the Pier Bowl district. The drive is about 20 minutes from San Clemente via I-5 at Avenida Pico. You do not need a referral to book.
Does PPO insurance cover a chiropractor if I live in San Clemente?
Most PPO plans we see from San Clemente patients cover medically necessary chiropractic care, usually with a copay after the deductible. We accept Aetna, Meritain, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of CA, United Healthcare, and Cigna. Call (949) 557-7208 and we will verify your benefits before you book so there are no surprises.
Can a chiropractor help a pinched nerve if I am coming from San Clemente?
Often, yes — if the irritation is mechanical. A “pinched nerve” is usually a joint, disc, or tight muscle crowding a nerve root. We screen for red flags (progressive weakness, bowel or bladder changes, fever, unexplained weight loss) first. If it is in our scope, we use adjustments, decompression when needed, and soft-tissue work. If it is not, we send you to the right specialist instead of guessing.
How much is a chiropractor visit without insurance if I drive from San Clemente?
Cash-pay is available. We do not post a single number because a first visit includes the exam, and follow-ups are shorter. Call (949) 557-7208 before you leave San Clemente and we will quote the cash-pay amount for that day. HSA, FSA, and HRA cards are welcome.
