Get to know Chiropractor Dr. David Herrera, who serves patients in Seattle, Washington.

Seattle Chiropractor, Dr. Herrera, specializes in treating patients involved in auto accidents and work injuries. He is the owner and operator of Herrera Chiropractic. 

Providing superior health and balance through chiropractic care, Dr. Herrera also aims to educate his patients about chiropractic and other natural solutions to common health problems. He does so in order to motivate them to take a more active and responsible role in restoring and maintaining their own health. “Chiropractic care is more than just making the pain disappear. It is about learning, understanding, and taking care of your body to improve your quality of life.”

Back in 2000, Dr. Herrera graduated with his Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree from Life Chiropractic College West, after which he returned to the Seattle area. He opened his state-of-the-art practice in January of 2006. Since then, he has kept up to date on many continuing educational classes, ensuring that his patients receive the most comprehensive and advanced chiropractic care. 

Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that mainly deals with the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. A chiropractor uses spinal adjustments, manipulation, and other techniques to manage patients’ health concerns, including neck pain and back pain. They aim to improve patients’ functionality and quality of life by properly aligning the body’s musculoskeletal structure and enabling the body to heal itself without the use of medication or surgery. 

Outside of the office, Dr. Herrera enjoys spending time with his family, playing golf, and snowboarding. He is fluent in Spanish, allowing him to work closely with the Spanish-speaking community.
