Meet The Team

Chiropractor

Benjamin Maynard, D.C.

Dr. Ben was born and raised in our very own Pasadena, California. He found his first passion for basketball while attending St. Francis High School in La Canada and later continued that passion at IMG Academies in Bradenton, Florida. After missing California weather, Dr. Ben returned home and graduated from Whittier College with a B.S. in Kinesiology and competed on the school's basketball team.

Whittier is where he realized his passion for chiropractic and moved up north to attend Life Chiropractic College West in Hayward, Ca. At school he immediately started studying the Gonstead Method and attended over 15+ Gonstead seminars and logged over 250 hours while also becoming the school's Gonstead Club President. He has now returned back into his hometown to elevate the health of his community.

Dr. Ben's first experience with Gonstead Chiropractic was while his mother was pregnant with him. During the pregnancy there was pressure placed on her low back that was causing her to lose the feeling in her legs. A Gonstead Chiropractor helped fix her to allow his mother to carry him full term. Everything has really come full circle now that Dr. Ben is also helping women with their pregnancies.

In his down time Dr. Ben enjoys playing basketball, working out, reading, and spending time with friends and family.
