DR. TANNER DIEBOLD
Chiropractor
Dr. Tanner Diebold is a chiropractor in San Diego, California who offers spinal manipulation, soft tissue therapies, taping, and corrective exercises. Far from a one-size-fits-all approach, Dr. Tanner specializes in whole-body wellness. Instead of merely treating symptoms, he works closely with his patients to understand and address the root cause of their pain and develop an individual treatment plan that will help them get back to doing the things they love.
Dr. Tanner grew up playing a variety of sports including college football while attending the University of Puget Sound. As an athlete himself, for over 20 years, Dr. Tanner is no stranger to the frustrations of musculoskeletal injuries and understands the importance of skilled treatment in order to recover and prevent further injury. His personal experiences are what
ultimately led him to a career in chiropractic.
After earning a Bachelor of Science from the University of Puget Sound, Dr. Tanner went on to graduate Magna Cum Laude from Palmer College of Chiropractic-West, where he worked as a clinic intern, mentored as a teaching assistant at chiropractic clinics, and served as a sports team injury advisor. In addition to his education in traditional spinal manipulation, Dr. Tanner found himself fascinated by the body’s ability to heal when treated as a whole unit. He believes that empowering patients with stretches and corrective exercises that can be performed both in and out of the clinic, along with traditional spinal adjustment, is key to longer-lasting results and progressive healing.
When he isn’t caring for patients, Dr. Tanner might be spotted enjoying the beach with his dog, Harper, or having a good meal with friends and family.
DR. ASHLEY AGUERO

Life for Dr. Ashley has been intricately woven with sports, from early participation in softball, volleyball, and CrossFit to managing wrestling teams.

Her expertise spans a diverse array of techniques, encompassing kinesiology taping, athletic taping, scraping, and cupping. Driven by a genuine desire to help patients unlock their full potential, Dr. Ashley brings a proactive and knowledgeable approach to chiropractic support. Proficient in all aspects of the body's neuromusculoskeletal system, she specializes in enhancing range, alleviating pain, and conducting tailored treatments for peak performance.
