About the doctor
Meet Dr. Tawfik Saleh, DC, LAc
A dual-credentialed doctor bringing chiropractic precision and Oriental medicine wisdom together under one roof.

Dr. Tawfik Saleh has spent his career caring for the people of Modesto and the Central Valley with an unusual combination of training: he is both a Doctor of Chiropractic and a Licensed Acupuncturist. That dual credential lets him meet patients where their pain lives - whether the answer is a targeted spinal adjustment, a Chinese medicine treatment plan, or thoughtful integration of both.
His practice is built on a simple belief: the body is a whole system, not a collection of parts. Back pain rarely lives only in the back. Chronic headaches, digestive complaints, poor sleep, and stress all speak to each other. Dr. Saleh listens for those connections, then designs a plan that treats the root cause, not just the loudest symptom.
A whole-person philosophy
Every new patient begins with an honest conversation and a thorough exam. From there, treatment might include chiropractic adjustments, cold laser therapy, therapeutic exercise, acupuncture, cupping, Tui Na medical massage, herbal support, or nutrition guidance - whatever the situation genuinely calls for.
Care in Spanish, English & Arabic
Dr. Saleh sees patients in Spanish, English, and Arabic, so families across the Central Valley can describe their pain in the language they think in. Se habla Español. يتحدث العربية. Speaking with a doctor who understands your language, your culture, and your story makes every visit calmer, clearer, and more effective.
A warm, unhurried bedside manner
Patients consistently describe Dr. Saleh as patient, gentle, and genuinely present. He listens first, explains every step before he touches you, and never rushes an appointment. Whether you're nervous about your first adjustment or your first acupuncture needle, you'll feel informed, respected, and cared for from the moment you walk in.
Serving the Modesto community
Patients travel from Modesto, Ceres, Riverbank, Oakdale, and across the Central Valley for care that treats them as a whole person. Dr. Saleh accepts personal-injury cases, works with attorneys on liens, and offers cash-friendly pricing to keep excellent care accessible.
East meets West. Symptom meets source. You meet real relief.
