Dr. Austin Applegate, born in Los Angeles, California, is a distinguished chiropractor with a passion for understanding and treating the root causes of injuries. He earned his Doctorate of Chiropractic from the Southern California University of Health Sciences, graduating Magna Cum Laude. Before this, he completed his Bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training at Denison University, where he also played football as a running back. His experiences with multiple injuries on the field ignited his interest in chiropractic care, particularly in addressing injuries stemming from postural changes and faulty movement mechanics.
With a career spanning the treatment of over 20,000 patients, Dr. Applegate has pursued advanced education in various techniques, including instrument-assisted soft tissue techniques, Fascial Manipulation, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), sports taping, and functional medicine. Utilizing a combined approach, he strives to uncover the underlying causes of each individual’s “dis-ease” and believes chiropractic care should be both transformational and educational, guiding patients toward optimal health and vitality.
Outside of his professional life, Dr. Applegate enjoys skiing, surfing, backpacking, and spending quality time with his dog, Ramsey.
