Services
Chiropractic, unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Dr. Corey Lichtman emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our sports and wellness center.
At Solana Beach Family & Sports Center we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our Solana Beach office. We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques.
Lack of proper care, ill-fitting shoes and general foot neglect are responsible for the majority of foot problems. It's important to understand your feet have direct impact on the rest of your body and support you with each step. A small abnormality in foot function can have a large impact on joints higher up in the body, causing pain and discomfort.
People punish their feet daily by wearing ill fitting shoes or by walking around on feet that do not function properly. Educate yourself and start improving the health of your feet. Your feet are a complex system of 52 bones, 66 joints, 214 ligaments, 38 muscles and tendons. It is no wonder that 75% of North Americans will experience foot health problems of varying degrees, at some point in their lives.
Orthotics or 'Orthoses' are inserts that comfortably fit into shoes; they are designed to support and improve the functioning of feet. Health care practitioners will prescribe orthotics to patients suffering from chronic foot or lower limb problems or to athletes to help maximize performance during sport.

Dr. Corey really helped me work out the issues I was having with headaches. He did muscle work on my shoulders, chest and neck, which were really tight and strained due to sitting at a computer/home office all day. He also helped me pinpoint that certain foods were contributing factors and got me set up with a short and simple stretch and foam roller routine at home. I highly recommend that you check him out!

Dr. Corey Lichtman is the best chiropractor I’ve ever seen in my entire life! I’ve been seeing chiropractors on a regular basis for over 50 years of my life. Why? Because every time I’ve gone into his office with a crooked back or painful neck (usually both )out of alignment sometimes my pain level would be a 9 from 1 to 10 being the most painful he would bring my pain level to a O. That’s not the case with others.Dr. Corey has the newest techniques with Lasers and the other gadgets that work. He is intuitive, caring, and excellent at what he does.

Dr. Corey is the best Chiropractor I have ever been to. He is professional and just so knowledgeable and he truly cares how you are doing. He has so many different ways to treat you and customizes each treatment on how your body responded to the last treatment. He does way more than just doing adjustments. I came in with nerve issues which was causing numbness in my shoulder and down my arm due to a buildup of scar tissue on my neck from radiation. In such a short time my tingling and numbness has gone away. I am so thankful my friend recommended Dr. Corey to me. I can't say enough great things

I was in a bad way when a pinched nerve had me virtually incapacitated. Dr. Corey took me form chronic to "good as new". By the way, this is not the first time that Dr. Corey helped me in this need. Dr. Corey does so much more than crack backs. He helps with the electric stimulation, and really spends a great deal of time making sure he solves the cause not just the symptom.

This man knows his stuff! This isn't the traditional chiropractor with a few neck adjustments and sending you out the door. No, he listens to your body in a way that feels like a 6th sense. He's got special tools to helps with scar tissue and you walk out like a new person realizing how a simple tweak can make you feel like "ohhhh this is how my body is supposed to feel!". My husband met him around 7 years ago when he used to live in the area and would go to Corey as often as he could to re-align and piece him back together. Even though we were up in Orange County visiting family

My husband and I were on a beach vacation and unfortunately a few days before we left I injured my shoulder. The pain grew to be intolerable, so I looked at chiropractors through Yelp and Dr. Lichtman was rated well. I sent a message through his online chat and got a call that he was able to see me a few hours later with a last minute opening. I would highly recommend Dr. Licthman. He worked on me for an hour and I left feeling so much better. I called two days later to ask if he could get me ready for an eight hour drive home, and again, he fit me in his busy schedule and was so attentive

It’s been awhile since my last adjustment and Dr.Corey is a phenomenal Chiropractor. He has a hands on approach and customized my treatment plan. I have been to many Chiropractors and by far he is the most compassionate, caring and knowledgeable doctor that I trust with my healthcare but also for my family. Thanks Dr. Corey for the great care!

A friend of mine referred Dr. Corey after I strained my hamstring due to over use (I’m an ultra marathon runner). Within 4 sessions the pain was gone. He identified the root cause of the strain and we’ve been working on strengthening the weak muscles to ensure it won’t happen again. I was back running pain free after 3 weeks of treatment and I know the work I’m doing with him will be paramount in keeping me injury free moving forward. Fun office environment and the most awesome receptionist! Highly recommend Dr. Corey for any and all injuries (not just back pain).

Dr. Lichtman is a miracle worker. He has given me back my active lifestyle and made me pain free. For about 3 years I have been suffering with intermittent upper back pain, which was bearable. Back in December, I played about two hours of tennis two days in a row and that threw my upper back into spasms and extreme pain. Just to stand after sitting was really painful. I'm 63 and am not ready to have a sedentary life. I dealt with the extreme pain for several months because I didn't want to go to an orthopedic doctor for fear that they would want to do surgery, which I wanted to avoid

Dr. Corey is an awesome chiropractor that knows exactly what he's doing! I trust and recommend him to people I know all the time. I was referred to him because I had a shoulder pain. I was really concerned and in a lot of pain. After just one visit it was fixed. He spends as much time as he needs and try's different methods which is why I think he solves issues so fast. After my third visit, all pains, stiffness were gone and my body and posture felt stronger and aligned. He's also kind so he worked with me on payments. He's amazing and happy I now have a chiropractor and

I started playing soccer again about four years ago for the first time in 30 years. I'm in my late 40s. I was playing on a Sunday indoor soccer league and ended up tearing my left calf three times. I was trying to figure out why it was happening. Through this process I went to a "specialist" within my health care company and the only advice he gave me was to ice massage it. I knew there had to be a better way to rehab and avoid or minimize these tears.
Fortunately, I met Dr. Corey at a business meetup and when one of these calf tears happened I went to him for physical therapy

I've known Dr Lichtman for close to 5 years now, and even though I've moved almost 30 minutes away, he's been the best money spent after a long work day, when returning from traveling, or for general maintenance (especially for helping my soreness after the gym).
Not only is Dr Lichtman extremely knowledgeable of the body and understands proper adjustment methods, but he's also personable and just an all around great guy.
I'm a professional photographer and have to sometimes work 10-16 hour shifts - because of that, I've gotten all sorts of injuries. Between dislocated

Dr. Corey has been treating me for many years. He is not only very knowledgeable but extremely passionate about his practice. He will surely make you feel at home and at ease with any issues you may have. Believe me..I have many issues!
His vast experience from sports gives him an upper hand as his understanding of biomechanics is above the rest. He will get to the root of your problems and give you real expectations of what kind of treatments you may need.
Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Dr. Corey and his assistant Selay if you are in search of a Chiropractor. In March of 2017 I was rear-ended on the 78 and sustained two herniated disks in my neck and was in a lot of pain. I treated with Dr. Corey twice a week for over a year. He spends more time with each individual patient than any other chiropractor I have seen. His assistant,Selay, was a tremendous help with her massages on my scalp as I was in a lot of pain with headaches. I treated with Selay first to loosen up the muscles and then saw Dr. Corey for care. I believe these two professionals significantly

I was a client of Dr. Lichtman's and had purchased, via cash, a bulk package of chiropractic services totaling $960.00. Shortly after my purchase, I was in an auto accident, in which the insurance company paid for all the accident-related chiropractic services.
After I had those much needed services, I planned to resume my pre-paid sessions. By then, Dr. Lichtman had moved offices. To make matters worse, he informed me he "had no record" of my pre-paid sessions. In order to honor our deal, he told me that I had to go back to his old office (not him or his staff, which seems unprofessional

Look no further, Dr Corey is the chiropractor you've been searching for! After 16 years of military service, and way too much sitting as a commercial pilot, my body was breaking down. A previous back injury and chronically tight hips resulted in years of SI joint dysfunction and lower back pain. I've worked with countless physical therapists and chiropractors over the years, and could only find temporary relief before the pain would return. I was tired of generic treatments and training plans given by practitioners always rushing to the next appointment.

Dr. Corey Lichtman is more than the best chiropractor I've ever had - and I've had a few over the years. Too humble to tell you, the results from his therapy reveal that his expertise surpasses most.
After limping around for 3+ months trying to treat a relentless foot pain, I was told by different professionals (including an ER doctor) that I needed crutches, rest, a boot, inserts, acupuncture, rest, etc. Nothing helped. Almost as painful as my heel was everyone who saw my limp and strongly discouraged me to hike Mount Whitney the following month. (Reservations are required to hike

If I were able to click more than 5 stars, I would!
Dr Corey is extremely knowledgable, not just about the spine, but the whole body. My issues are soft tissue related. I had seen 3 different DCs over the last 4 years who were solid and gave me short term relief, but never were able to get me active.
Within 3 months I was able to start running (slowly at first, now quickly!) for the first time in 5 years.
He simply identifies the exact problems and determines the correct treatment for it. And it varies often each visit.

Dr. Corey has been a blessing in disguise! I was referred to him for treatment after a high-impact car accident. A simple broken wrist from the accident turned into an out-of-place bone, a surgical procedure and now what looks like additional months of rehab on my entire left arm, neck and back.
Dr. Corey has been a primary caretaker through the entire process. He truly cares about my progress and has invested the time to create a treatment plan, provide on-going physical therapy and most importantly.....a positive attitude that recently seems to have escaped me!
