A Personal Journey Into Chiropractic
Dr. Brad Barez’s path into chiropractic began the hard way, through injury.
Growing up with two brothers, sports were a huge part of life. In high school he competed in three varsity sports and had dreams of playing professionally. But everything changed after a serious football injury to his lower spine.
Multiple doctors told him something no athlete ever wants to hear:
“You’ll probably never run again.”
Instead of accepting that outcome, Dr. Barez chose a different path. He began a program combining chiropractic care and physical therapy, focusing on restoring proper spinal function and movement.
Within three months he was not only running again — he completed the Palos Verdes Marathon with an impressive time.
That experience changed the course of his life.
It was the moment he decided to dedicate his career to helping others recover from injuries, avoid unnecessary surgery, and restore the body’s natural ability to heal.
30+ Years Helping Patients Heal Naturally
Dr. Barez has been practicing chiropractic since 1994 and is the founder of Back to Healthcare Chiropractic in Torrance, California, one of the most experienced multidisciplinary chiropractic clinics in the South Bay.
For more than three decades, he has helped patients recover from:
• Back and neck pain
• Herniated and bulging discs
• Sciatica
• Sports injuries
• Chronic joint and muscle pain
• Postural and spinal degeneration
His approach combines advanced chiropractic care, physical therapy, neuromuscular rehabilitation, and regenerative medicine to treat the root cause of pain, not just the symptoms.
Trusted by Athletes and the Local Community
Dr. Barez originally planned to work exclusively with elite athletes, and he continues to serve in that role today. He has worked with Team USA and international athletes, providing chiropractic care for national teams competing around the world.
But over the years his passion expanded beyond sports.
Today his greatest fulfillment comes from helping families in the South Bay community regain their health and stay active without relying on medications or unnecessary surgery.
Patients come to Back to Healthcare Chiropractic from Torrance, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, and Palos Verdes seeking natural solutions for pain and long-term spinal health.
Serving Communities Around the World
Dr. Barez also believes strongly in giving back. He has participated in humanitarian efforts with teams of doctors providing care in underserved regions of the world including:
Sri Lanka
India
Peru
Bolivia
Through these partnerships, chiropractic care and rehabilitation services are brought to communities that otherwise have little access to healthcare.
A Simple Mission
Dr. Barez’s mission is simple:
"Help people feel better, move better, and live up to their God-given potential."
Whether treating elite athletes or helping someone simply get back to walking pain-free, the goal is always the same, restore health naturally and help patients live active, vibrant lives. If you see Dr. Barez around the office, feel free to say hello.
