Laurie A. Buob, D.C., M.S., ART & Graston

Dr. Buob graduated cum laude from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in 2004 and has a M.S. in Exercise Science/Cardiac Rehabilitation from Northeastern Illinois.  Before entering chiropractic school in 2001 she was an Exercise Physiologist/Fitness Intructor at Canyon Ranch in Tucson, AZ for 7 years.

As she developed and grew her practice, Dr. Buob note that most of her patients came to her with a common complaint:  they were forced to return to other doctors for multiple visits and repeat adjustments, none of which truly alleviated their pain for a substantial period of time.  In contrast, Dr. Buob has created a system that shifts the focus of patient care to rehabilitation- in essence, to locate and address the weakness that creates instability in the body.

Dr. Buob's technique blends several different philosophies to create a system that is highly effective in providing patients with long term pain relief and improved health.  Most patients enjoy dramatic improvement in as little as six weeks.

Dr. Buob continues to hone and refine her techniques through post-graduate studies in rehabilitation.  Having a lifelong passion for sports, she is also very involved in the local running and triathlon community.  She has been involved in these activities for over 25 years and it has led to an equal passion in the treatment of soft-tissue injuries.
