Founded in June 2000, Brinegar Chiropractic and Massage Center in Santee occupies Suite 203 at 8760 Cuyamaca Street, where two doctors of chiropractic and two licensed massage therapists treat the East County community. The lead chiropractor holds a bachelor's degree from San Diego State University and a doctorate from Life Chiropractic College West with additional licensure as a radiology supervisor, providing in-house X-ray capability that serves athletes recovering from barbell and gymnastics injuries at CrossFit Fortius East on Wheatlands Avenue. A second doctor of chiropractic has practiced since 2012 with specialization in ankle, jaw, and shoulder conditions, and sports-massage and pre-natal massage modalities round out a treatment menu that includes deep-tissue work, therapeutic muscle manipulation, and orthotics fitting. The clinic accepts Veterans Affairs insurance and processes personal-injury cases, with acute-trauma patients frequently referred from Perlman Clinic Santee on Mission Gorge Road for ongoing musculoskeletal rehabilitation after initial walk-in evaluation. On-site digital radiography captures lateral cervical, AP lumbar, and full-spine views at 0.05–0.1 mSv per exposure to assess vertebral subluxation patterns before manual or instrument-assisted adjustment.
