Dr. Steven Katz
DC, Diplomate of American Board of Chiropractic Orthopedics
Chiropractic
What I bring to my practice is almost 50 years of clinical experience and a lifetime of spiritual practice and athletic achievement. My journey into chiropractic was born from a deep love for yoga; as a dedicated teacher I developed the Anatomy of Yoga program, a staple in many yoga teacher training programs.
My understanding of the human body is “inside out” shaped by a rich background as a professional baseball player, competitive runner, and medal-winning triathlete. This personal history allows me to relate to my patients, be they athletes or weekend warriors, with an intuitive understanding of their injuries and recovery needs.
I was the first Diplomate of Chiropractic Orthopedics in Marin County, California, specializing in non-surgical orthopedics. This and subsequent training in extremity injuries and adjustments has greatly expanded my ability to diagnose and treat upper and lower extremity problems.
My technical expertise spans:
Multiple Chiropractic techniques, Spinal Decompression, Scoliosis Management, Fascial Manipulation, Extremity and Visceral Adjusting, Soft Tissue Manipulation, Rehabilitative Exercise/Yoga therapy, and Total Immersion Swim Coaching
Iris Gold
Oriental Medical Doctor, Licensed Acupuncturist
Acupuncture
Originally trained in Western Medicine as a Microbiologist, my career took a turn after a trip to Asia in 1973. I returned to study three years of naturopathic medicine, then trained in Acupuncture, and received my doctorate in Oriental Medicine in China.
My work is a bridge between the ancient wisdoms of Eastern medicine and the precision of modern functional medicine. For 43 years I have been blessed in my Acupuncture practice to assist others in creating and maintaining optimal health, vitality, and a pain free life through natural medicine.
My life is devoted to working with life energy – observing, nurturing, and directing the Qi, or life force, towards harmony and balance.
I have been widely recognized for my in depth work in Healthy Aging and Women’s Healthcare. I teach about the lifestyle choices to increase longevity both locally and internationally, with my personally created and curated program “Live Younger Longer”
Dedicated to Service
My goal is to help you live a healthier life no matter your age: a supple spine, a balanced and strong body, as well as a commitment to good nutrition and fitness.
Stewarding the Land
My Happy Place
When I am not with patients or my grandkids, you will likely find me in my garden, tending or arranging flowers . Flowers have always been a part of my healing practice and I like to think of my life and the treatments I provide, like a flower arrangement. A well balanced flower arrangement brings harmony and joy. It has beauty and space and structure and a relaxed nervous system.
