About Us

Dr. Ashkan Jalili, Chiropractic Neurologist and educator, along with his wife, Parisa Serri, a licensed acupuncturist, have put together a dynamic team of experienced and knowledgeable healing arts practitioners to serve you in the warmest and friendliest atmosphere. Our unique multi-disciplinary practice implements the extraordinary knowledge and services of Leona West, certified nutritionist and herbalist, Tina Ojima, licensed massage therapist,  as well as Christine Collins, M.D., Sarah Schroeder, D.C, and Lawrence Kates, P.T.

Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Santa Monica Wellness Group Practitioners emphasize improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place to optimize the health and achieve optimum wellness. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could.

For some, Santa Monica Wellness Group will take them back to a place that is cozy and familiar, offering a rediscovery of health and wellness that had been previously known but long lost. For others, the journey may offer a new center, one never before experienced. Services such as Massage, Acupuncture, Functional Chiropractic neurology, Nutritional Assessment,  pain Management, physical therapy as well as medical weight loss programs to fit your needs are all offered under one roof at one of the most convenient locations on the Westside.

People are recognizing the benefit of seeking an alternative to traditional medicine; one that will help them achieve and maintain optimal health. However, our CENTER combines the best of BOTH WORLDS. Please take the time to meet the doctors, team, and our wellness network dedicated to helping you achieve your wellness objectives. To fully understand the nature of your health we recommend you join our free website membership program. As a patient at  Santa Monica Wellness Group we will personally tailor a wellness program specifically targeted to your wellness needs using the least invasive yet highly-effective techniques and services.
