Dr. Myra Amparo
D.C., CCSP
Sports Chiropractic
Dr. Myra graduated with her doctorate of chiropractic with Cum Laude Honors from Palmer West Chiropractic College. Her approach to patient care is bridging the gap between healthcare and fitness. She believes healthcare is a team effort between the patient and doctor.
Her goal is to empower patients by providing tools and treatments to help them manage and get back to the activities they love. In office treatments, you can find Dr. Myra utilizing her expertise in chiropractic manipulative techniques, myofascial release, and corrective exercises for therapeutic treatments in adjunct to strength training programs.
As a three-sport athlete in high school as well as playing collegiate soccer, she sustained several injuries and sought medical care often. After seeing multiple healthcare options, her frustration with continuing injuries had let her down the road to seek chiropractic care. After learning about sports chiropractic and how successful the experience was in helping her manage her injuries, it inspired her to continue that journey professionally and help others who may be experiencing similar frustrations.
In her free time, you can find Dr. Myra having fun lifting heavy objects, whether powerlifting or strongman training. You can find her outdoors spending her time hiking and traveling to National Parks. She also enjoys nerding out at comic conventions and spending her caturdays with her two cats.

How we got Started
Our clinic was born out of the desire to bridge the gap between healthcare and the fitness world.We recognize the divide between traditional healthcare and fitness practices and we believe that these two realms are not only interconnected but more importantly, complements each other.
We emphase the importance of living an active lifestyle to help decrease the risk of certain diseases and that we need to maintain proper musuculoskeletal and joint biomechanics to decrease the risk of physical injuries. At Sonoma Sports & family Chiropractic, we are committed to pioneering this integration and empowering individuals to thrive both in their health and fitness pursuits.
