Where Fitness Chiropractic began
Fitness Chiropractic & Massage Therapy started in Huntington Beach. Dr. Jean-Pierre Khreich opened the practice here in 2002, originally inside South Coast Athletic Club, and that gym-floor beginning still shapes how we work. Care is built around getting you moving again — back in the water, back on the trail, back to work — not just feeling better for an afternoon.
You'll see that history on the wall of signed athlete photos in our office. Dr. JP has spent more than two decades working with competitive athletes and sports teams, and that sports-injury focus carries through to every patient, whether you surf before work or spend most of the day at a desk. He is also a Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME), and car accident and work injuries have long been part of the practice alongside sports care.
Why patients choose our Huntington Beach clinic
- Sports-minded care. Exams look at how you move, not only where it hurts, and plans often pair adjustments with strengthening work — see our approach to sports injury treatment.
- Several kinds of care in one place. The office has a rehab and training area, a private massage room and dedicated treatment rooms, so massage therapy and exercise can be part of the same plan.
- Walk-ins welcome. If your back locks up midweek, you don't have to wait days for an opening.
- A first visit with real substance. The $75 new patient visit is a full evaluation plus an adjustment, not a quick screening.

What we treat in Huntington Beach
Most people come to us with spine and joint pain that's getting in the way of daily life. Common reasons for a visit include:
- Lower back pain from lifting, sitting or a long drive on the 405
- Sciatica — pain, tingling or numbness running through the buttock and down the leg
- Neck pain and stiffness from screens, sleep position or hours of paddling
- Disc-related pain, where non-surgical spinal decompression may be part of your plan
- Sports and overuse injuries in the shoulders, hips, knees and ankles
- Car accident injuries such as whiplash — our car accident chiropractor page explains how that care works
Every plan starts with your exam. If something points to a problem that needs imaging or a medical specialist, we'll tell you and refer you rather than guess.
Inside the clinic
The photos on this page show our real Huntington Beach office. Past the waiting room, you'll find treatment rooms hung with surf artwork, a private room for massage, and a rehab and training area where we coach the exercises that help keep pain from coming back.
That training space matters. Adjustments can relieve stiffness and pain, but strength and mobility work is what helps you hold on to the progress — especially if you're returning to a sport, a physical job or a busy family schedule.
Getting here
The clinic is at 7677 Center Ave, Suite 300, inside the Bella Terra Medical building (One Pacific Plaza), next to the 405. Once you're inside the building, look for Suite 300 on the directory sign. The map on this page gives directions from wherever you're starting.
Neighborhoods we serve
Sitting right beside the freeway makes this an easy clinic to reach from across west Orange County. Along with Huntington Beach itself, we serve patients from Fountain Valley, Westminster, Garden Grove and Costa Mesa, plus coastal neighbors in Seal Beach and Sunset Beach. For many Surf City locals, it's a quick stop on the way to or from work, and the Bella Terra area makes it easy to fit a visit around errands. If you live nearer the Los Angeles County line, our Los Alamitos clinic may be the shorter drive.
What to expect at your first visit
Your $75 new patient visit includes a full orthopedic exam, full neurological exam, pain assessment and spinal analysis, followed by a spinal adjustment when it's appropriate. We'll explain what we found in plain language, outline a plan and give you a realistic idea of how many visits it may take.
We accept most PPO plans and attorney liens, along with most other insurance plans. If your coverage is limited, we can set up a flexible payment program or a family plan, and we'll check your benefits before care begins so there are no surprises.
