Brittany Howard

Brittany is the newest addition to Wellness Choice Center with an amazing story of her experience with chiropractic care. She had severe nerve pain that ended up causing her to need a wheelchair. After exhausting all types of treatment, she finally went to a consultation at a chiropractic office. By the end of the visit and adjustment she WALKED out of the chiropractic office. "Few people understand that your spine can affect organs and everything else within the body. After completing several chiropractic visits and adjustments, I was able to walk without pain and begin to make myself healthy again!"
Brittany enjoys staying healthy through working out at the beach and eating right. She has a passion for supporting at-risk youth, and is currently a senior at Vanguard University of Southern California getting training to eventually make a difference in children's lives.
In her spare time, she likes to take her dog "Cal" to dog-beach, get together with friends, find new restaurants and shopping spots, travel, and take weekend trips to Lake Havasu, Arizona.

Blake Peterson
|
|
Certified Massage Therapist
Blake specializes in sports massage with a holistic approach. He takes pride in his work and strives to provide the best possible massage for every client.
After working for several years in the printing trades, Blake yearned for a healthier profession where he could use his hands and work with people, not machines. A friend convinced him to check out a massage school where he was able to audit a class. He knew then that massage was what he wanted to do with his life.
After 1,400 hours of certification coursework followed by numerous educational seminars and workshops since, Blake has refined his massage technique. In 1995, he earned his Certificate in Massage Therapy from the Mesa Institute School of Massage in Orange County. While he continues to learn and add new approaches to his form of the healing arts, he considers his specialties to be deep tissue and trigger point therapy.
“No two people are exactly alike. Every person has unique stresses in their lives that manifest within their bodies. It's my job to find those physical knots and work them out.”
Blake is an accomplished musician and has been playing bass in a band for more than 19 years. He also manages and plays with an over 30 men’s soccer league. In whatever free time he has left, Blake enjoys spending time with his American Bulldog, Booksta.
