Hamilton Chiropractic Offices was founded in 1975 by Dr. Mik Hamilton, originally as Berkeley Chiropractic Center. For the first five years we were located on Solano Avenue in North Berkeley after which we moved to our present larger facility on Gilman Street, also in North Berkeley. Since 1975 we have served as a state of the art Chiropractic health care center, serving the needs of over ten thousand East Bay residents with the latest innovations in Chiropractic care. We have provided health care services to patients with a variety of needs from the terminally ill to the robust and healthy. Ailing people of all ages come to our clinic to recover from sprains and strains and functional disorders of all types. Click on Symptoms to see more about the type of conditions treated in our offices. We have treated the newborn to the aged, the robust to the totally functionally impaired, safely and effectively. Healthy people come to our clinic to maintain their good health with a plan to stay well by making sure that their nerve system is free of interference, through regular chiropractic maintenance programs.

We have also functioned as a research and training center for a specialty in Chiropractic known as Spinal Bio-Mechanics. Spinal Bio-Mechanics is a chiropractic specialty that utilizes the science of Dynamics, a special area of Bio-Mechanics that applies to living, moving organisms, and how they function in their environment. We apply engineering standards to analyze the spine’s position in its environment, gravity. Then, with a knowledge of the function of masses and motion, force and resistance, determine how best to return the spine to its optimum functional position, thus restoring the spine to its minimal energy state. That is a state in which the body adapts to its environment utilizing the least amount of energy. Click on Spinal Bio-Mechanics for more on this subject. Over the years Dr. Hamilton has trained hundreds of other chiropractors in a post-graduate setting, in his capacity as a certified instructor for the Pettibon Bio-Mechanics Institute.

Hamilton Chiropractic Offices is also the home office for Consumers Accident Clinic, a multi-disciplinary referral network of over 40 specialists who specialize in just about anything that can happen to a person in an accidental injury. Click on Consumers Accident Clinic for details.
