While training for a marathon in 2000, Dr. Pacheco started experiencing low back, hip, and knee pain.
After seeing his MD and not getting any answers, he decided to see a chiropractor. It was explained to him what was wrong and how chiropractic may help.

Wanting to learn that model, Dr. Scott stayed for three and a half years running his own satellite clinic in San Lorenzo, CA.
