Dr. Michelle McLafferty Mohawk, DC

Dr. Michelle McLafferty Mohawk, DC Aquatic Therapy, Chiropractic, Fitness Training, BEMER Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy, Low Lev Dr. Mohawk graduated from UC Berkeley in 2000.

Water provides the optimal conditions for exercise as well as chiropractic adjustments, massage, and stretching. Water's weightlessness relieves muscle tension and naturally decompresses the spine, taking pressure off your joints. Swim skills are not necessary to enjoy the benefits of this unique modality. Warm water soothes and relaxes the body so you get the most out of your treatment. Linked in: www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=44304328

Dr. Michelle Mohawk received her medical training at Southern California University of Health Sciences, earning her Doctorate of Chiropractic degree in 2005, followed by a 2 year post-graduate Residency in Radiology/Diagnostic Imaging. A Southern California native, and the oldest of 22 grandchildren, she has always been a natural caregiver and enjoys seeing people experience total wellness. Her honor’s thesis, which she researched for her bachelor’s degree, was on stress and its manifold effects on the mind and body. Her love for fitness and the outdoors led her to pursue advanced training in the field of aquatic physical rehabilitation in a non-impact water environment. Dr. Mohawk is one of few Chiropractors in the United States with an expertise in aquatic rehabilitation. She develops customized aquatic rehabilitation programs, helping patients overcome a multitude of injuries both in the pool and out, while reducing physical stress and tension on the body. Dr. Mohawk is also proficient in a variety of soft tissue therapy techniques, including a unique therapeutic Aquatic Massage in the pool or spa. She advocates an integrated approach to care, working with other health care providers to comprehensively address the health care needs of each patient. When not in the office, Dr. Mohawk enjoys spending time with her extended Italian-Hawaiian family, traveling, and relaxing at the beach.

Working with patients in the water who are sometimes in extreme pain due to accidents, failed back surgeries, etc I have encountered several with medically prescribed oxytocin addictions with all the treacherous side effects/withdraw anxieties as if they were street drug addicts, but these are educated, mostly white collar professionals simply in acute or chronic pain. Thankfully most clients seek aqua therapy because they want to heal the source of pain vs mask it with drugs that are terribly addicting. We have a lot of progress to make in our country, but this small victory is positive. "Yesterday, the OxyContin maker pleaded guilty to three federal criminal charges for its role in the US's deadly opioid epidemic. And has now formally taken responsibility for its part in an addiction crisis, fueled by their prescription painkillers. It admitted to trying to defraud US officials and paying illegal kickbacks to doctors and vendors to encourage them to prescribe more of its drugs. Now, as part of a settlement deal with the DOJ, Purdue Pharma's owners (the Sackler family) will pay $225 million in civil penalties. And will open a public benefit company, with its profits going toward helping alleviate the opioid crisis."

My specialty is Aquatic Therapy, therapeutic aquatic exercise instruction, water rehab, mindfulness/stress management in the pool, and offering gentle chiropractic manipulation + stretches in the water. I have over 20 years experience in this field. With Covid-19 I'm now offering mobile services within Los Angeles. I can come to your pool for Aquatic Therapy or personal training, water exercise instruction, water rehab therapy, or swim lessons at a "Social Distance." I will wear a water resistant mask while working. The nice thing about this work is we are outdoors, we can work effectively at a social distance, and your head/face remain out of the water so we can wear masks.
