James Caldero D.C.
Lead Chiropractor & Clinical Director
Dr. James Caldero’s journey into chiropractic care began when he witnessed his father’s "miracle" recovery from a debilitating back injury through natural adjustment. This experience led him to pivot from dental school to chiropractic, eventually graduating Summa Cum Laude and Valedictorian from the Southern California College of Chiropractic. Over his 29-year career in the San Gabriel Valley, he has been recognized with the President’s Clinical Excellence Award and voted Top Chiropractor of his class.

Dr. Caldero is dedicated to helping patients thrive without a lifetime of medication. He specializes in advanced, non-invasive therapies including Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression, Shockwave Therapy, and Hako-Med technology for Neuropathy. He is a strong advocate for PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) Therapy, a modern treatment that "recharges" the body at a cellular level to accelerate healing and reduce inflammation.

A lifelong athlete with a background in martial arts and football, Dr. Caldero remains active today through weightlifting and supporting his grandson’s grappling practice. He is a devoted family man, married to his wife Sandra for 28 years, and a proud military father. Whether he is teaching the Bible or researching the latest holistic breakthroughs, Dr. Caldero’s mission remains the same: to help his community recover and restore their health naturally.
