- Extremity joint pain (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle)

Our Approach
We don’t focus on symptoms alone.
We assess how the body moves, where restrictions exist, and how compensation patterns may be contributing to pain or dysfunction.
Care is built around restoring more efficient movement so the body can function, adapt, and perform better over time.
Treatment may include:
- Chiropractic adjustments
- Soft tissue therapy
- Rehabilitation exercises
- Recovery-based support

Meet Dr. Jim Donoghue, D.C.
For over 35 years, I’ve worked with patients across Sacramento helping them recover from injury, improve mobility, and restore functional movement.

"I have been being adjusted by Dr. Jim for a while now because my job is very physical so I see him once a week so I can get my body back in alignment. One of my favorite parts of the session is lying on heat and relaxing after a long day at work."
