Carrying extra weight and living with joint pain tend to feed each other: pain makes movement unappealing, and less movement makes the pain worse. Dr. Azien Mousavi's role here is a specific and honest one — relieve the back, hip, and knee pain that is standing between you and being active, so that the exercise and nutrition work you do with your physician actually has a chance to take hold.
Dr. Azien Mousavi, DC is a chiropractor in Laguna Niguel who focuses on PEMF, laser therapy, and chiropractic adjustments to help patients heal naturally.
We assess the joints and movement patterns that are limiting your activity, and screen for anything that needs your physician's attention first.
Step 2
Your second visit — X-ray review & care plan
On your second visit we review your X-rays together and lay out a customized corrective care plan plus a home rehab plan — specific, time-bound, and built around what the imaging actually shows.
Step 3
Movement first, then progression
We relieve the pain that blocks activity, then progress your loading and mobility so exercise becomes sustainable rather than something that flares you up.

The basics
About weight loss
Chiropractic care is not a weight-loss treatment, and we will never claim that an adjustment burns calories or changes your metabolism. What it can do is remove a very common obstacle. Excess load through the low back, hips, and knees produces exactly the kind of pain that makes walking, cycling, or strength work feel impossible — and that inactivity then compounds the original problem.
By restoring joint mechanics and calming the pain that limits you, care can make consistent movement realistic again. Alongside that we coach on activity progression, ergonomics, and the small habit changes that make an active routine stick.
Medical weight management — nutrition prescribing, medication, and metabolic investigation — sits with your physician, and we coordinate rather than compete with it.
Our approach
What makes our care different
Drug-Free & Non-Invasive
Natural relief without medication, injections, or surgery.
Corrects the Root Cause
We resolve the source of your pain for lasting results.
Restored Mobility
Move freely again with improved flexibility and posture.
Whole-Body Wellness
Support your nervous system and overall long-term health.
Care for the Whole Family
Gentle, effective care for every age, from kids to seniors.
Consultation + Exam + First Treatment — a one-on-one consultation, a thorough exam, and your first treatment: everything we need to understand your pain and start you on the path to relief.
Being told to lose weight while you are in too much pain to move is a genuinely difficult position, and it is where most people get stuck. Our contribution is narrow but useful: treat the low back, hip, and knee pain that makes activity unappealing, so consistent movement becomes possible again.
What we do not claim
We do not claim that adjustments cause weight loss, change metabolism, or replace medical care. Any practice telling you otherwise is overselling. Medical weight management sits with your physician — we work alongside it.
When to book
Consider an exam if joint pain is the main thing standing between you and being more active, if previous attempts at exercise have flared your back or knees, or if you want a realistic plan for moving more without making the pain worse. Our New Patient Special covers the consultation and exam, and you can book an appointment online.

Can chiropractic care make me lose weight?+
No — and we would never claim that it can. Chiropractic care has no direct effect on metabolism or body composition. What it does is treat the joint pain that keeps many people from exercising consistently, which makes the work you do with your physician and your own activity routine far more achievable.
Do you provide diets or weight-loss medication?+
No. Nutrition prescribing, medication, and metabolic testing belong with your physician. Our role is musculoskeletal — relieving pain and restoring movement — and we are glad to coordinate with whoever is managing that side of your care.
I have knee and back pain and have been told to lose weight. Where do I start?+
Usually with the pain, because it is the thing blocking everything else. Once walking and basic strength work stop hurting, the activity side becomes realistic. Book an exam and we will tell you honestly whether we can help with your specific presentation.
