A VISIONARY FOUNDER: DR. PEARL
Dr. Pearl, a seasoned practitioner with a passion for holistic healing, founded the Bixby Knolls Wellness Center after recognizing the need for a more integrative and patient-focused healthcare model. “I’d always been aware of chiropractic and physical medicine where doctors were helping people with their hands… without drugs or surgery,” Dr. Pearl explains. “I was drawn to making it a career because I wanted to help people both physically and mentally.”
Motivated by her desire to empower individuals to take control of their health and wellbeing, and paired with her love of Bixby Knolls (she grew up here and bartended down the street at Willmore throughout chiropractic school), Dr. Pearl has dedicated her career to the pursuit of a truly holistic approach to wellness.
With an impressive background that includes graduating Magna Cum Laude from the Southern California University of Health Sciences and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California, Irvine, Dr. Pearl has developed a broad range of expertise that allows her to create personalized treatment plans for each patient. Her extensive team holds certifications in: Yoga Therapy, Acupuncture, Reformer Pilates, Pronatal Fitness, NASM certified personal training, organic skin care, prenatal and lymphatic massage therapy and a variety of services that cater towards pregnant women like the popular Webster Method.
