Meet the Team of Santa Barbara Family Chiropractic!
Meet Your Chiropractor, Dr. Nicholas Araza
"Dreams do come true!" Dr. Nicholas Araza spent the last 2 years training in one of the largest wellness based chiropractic clinics in the country to learn how to deliver the best in corrective wellness chiropractic care, so he could then open his dream practice with his fiancee right here in Santa Barbara.
Passion and enthusiasm for all things health have been my credos for the last 10 years ever since a debilitating injury forced me to examine how I was living my life. Now it is my passion to introduce people to corrective chiropractic care and educate them around a healthy and sustainable lifestyle so that they can not only avoid pain and crisis but more importantly move toward optimal health. It is ridiculous that 97% of all health dollars are spent on treatment, when prevention and more importantly promotion of health is what most people really want!
A goal of "Not broken" is much different than one of "optimal function." This is why I focus a great deal on chiropractic for infants and children. The latest research is showing that many of our adult problems begin as little ones, and can be prevented entirely with chiropractic care.
Dr. Araza earned his post-doctoral Certification as a Chiropractic Wellness Practitioner (CCWP) through the rigorous education program hosted by the International Chiropractic Association. Dr. Araza is is currently the only CCWP in the city of Santa Barbara! Possessing this unique certification has earned him the knowledge that comes along with being an expert in wellness science, and as a health care provider; it allows him to offer distinctive education and care to his community. Anyone looking to improve their health will find Dr. Nick is the coach they have been looking for to guide them toward the health they deserve.
Dr. Nick was born to amazing parents, Jack & Jan and has one wonderful brother who luckily (and by design) works right next door. . He doesn’t like life, he LOVES IT. Dr. Nick loves learning and teaching, moving his body, helping people get healthier, travel, trying new things, and hanging out with/keeping in touch with friends, his family and his amazing fiancee Jennifer.
The world is too amazing of a place not to be healthier & happier!

Meet Your Wellness Coordinator and Health Coach, Jennifer Araza
I feel like the luckiest person on the planet to be doing what I get to do everyday, which is chat, educate and inspire all things wellness! For as long as I can remember, I have had a hunger for more and more knowledge on how to be healthier. I remember wondering why I was the only person ordering books on healthy eating and exercise in the 4th grade bookorder!
This is not to say that I have been a health nut my whole life...oh no. I would be so bold to say that when I met Nick I was eating processed foods at pretty much every meal, and the amount of exercise I was getting went no further than my walk to the train in the morning. I wanted a magic bullet...I knew I wasn't feeling/looking/acting up to my full potential, but didn't know what to do with that information. It was at this time that I met Dr. Nick in Salem, Massachusetts at a chiropractic screening. From there, my life was changed. I met my life long health coach, and teammate in life! From that day on I have dramatically improved myhealth, and LIFE; by adopting a new diet, incorporating functional fitness into my life, thinking positive thoughts and being under chiropractic care. I truly believe that I am a walking testimonial of what we have to offer here at Santa Barbara Family Chiropractic, and I am so grateful that I have the opportunity to share my story with you and be a part of YOUR journey!
