Meet the Team

We’re a small, dedicated team that believes in building real connections with the people we care for. You’re always welcome to choose which chiropractor or massage therapist you see. We want you to feel comfortable and supported every step of the way.

Dr. Kenneth Brinegar, D.C. (or just Dr. B, as most people call him) has been caring for the Santee community since 2000. He’s trained in sports and injury rehabilitation and is also a licensed radiology supervisor. His path to chiropractic care started as a teenager. He struggled with scoliosis and chronic pain for years, until a chiropractor changed his life. That experience stuck with him, and ultimately inspired his own career.Now, with decades of experience under his belt, Dr. B brings that same passion into every treatment. He’s known for being straightforward, compassionate, and focused on getting people real, lasting relief, especially when it comes to getting folks back to doing what they love, pain-free.

Dr. Niccole O'Dell, D.C. has been practicing since 2012 with a focus on both family and sports chiropractic. She's skilled in treating the full body, from head to toe, and has particular expertise with ankle, shoulder, and jaw issues. Dr. O'Dell loves working with patients of all ages and knows how to make adjustments fun and comfortable for kids. She’s also experienced in handling Personal Injury cases and can help guide you through the process with clarity and care. Whether you’re dealing with everyday wear and tear or something more complex, she brings a thoughtful, thorough approach to every visit.

Haley and Manny, our licensed massage therapists, each bring their own unique style and strengths to the table, literally. Whether you're looking for targeted deep tissue work, something more relaxing, or a mix of both, they’ll work with you to find the right fit.

We’re all a little different in how we treat, but the goal is the same: to help you feel better in a way that feels right for you.
