Just Breathe Healing

Traditional Healer with Modern Credentials

 Elena Esparza, D.C.,M.S., is a healer and activist. Born in East Los Angeles, Dr. Esparza was encouraged to play in the green sanctuary of her childhood, hill-top home and dig in her grandmother's garden, where she found a language in her green world. "My first memory of healing and natural remedies was at six years of age, and I have continued living among the plants and natural world all of my life," she says. "I have had the privilege of living, visiting and studying throughout the Americas, therefore my influences are numerous and varied.”

 “My chief healing influences come through the great women of my family who have carried on the traditions of their grandmothers and family healers: my mother Ofelia Esparza, my grandmother Guadalupe Avilez, and our beloved Maya ancestor, Mama Pola, who never forgot the connection and lessons of the plants for healing.”

 Dr. Esparza has studied herbal medicine, manual medicine and energetic medicine throughout the United States, Mexico and Central America. She received her Doctorate of Chiropractic Medicine in 1999 from the Southern California University of Health Sciences, Los Angeles. She was first introduced to chiropractic when she suffered injuries in a major motor vehicle accident. Through alternative healing care, Dr. Esparza was able to fully recover and test for her second degree black belt in Aikido.
