Your body has a story.
Our job is to help you read it.

Dr. Ihotu Ali
Doctor.
Bodyworker.
Birth worker.
I’m Dr. Ihotu Ali — a chiropractor, bodyworker, and birth doula with 15+ years of experience working with the body. My approach brings clinical science together with skilled, intuitive hands-on care, looking beyond where it hurts to understand the patterns connecting your pain, movement, nervous system, and story.
Where
Clinical Science
Meets
Healing by Hand
The body rarely works in isolated parts —
and neither do I.
At Oshun, I combine chiropractic, fascia and myofascial work, abdominal and pelvic care, craniosacral therapy, movement, nervous-system care, and whole-person health education to understand what’s connected, what’s restricted, and what may help.
You don’t need to know which technique you need.
That’s my job.
Chiropractic · Fascia + Bodywork · Abdominal + Pelvic Care · Craniosacral · Movement · Nutrition + Lifestyle
Because healthcare should make sense
— and you should understand
your own body.

NOW ESTABLISHING OUR SAN DIEGO HOME
San Diego, we’re here.
I’m building Oshun Center’s West Coast clinical home — and I’d love to connect. Whether you’re looking for care, or you’re a chiropractor, midwife, doula, pelvic-health provider, or another integrative practitioner, I’d be glad to know you.
