Patricia Lotufo DC graduated Cum Laude from the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. She completed her undergraduate studies in Biological Sciences at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
She specialized in human metabolism with emphasis in exercise physiology and immunology. Through her experience and extensive research in the subject Dr. Lotufo became fascinated with the remarkable self healing ability of the human body.

“Working at a laboratory was fundamental, I learned so much, but there was a component missing. I wanted to interact with people and be able to use everything I know to help them”

Her philosophy, “the human body is the most amazing self healing organism. Give it what it wants, teach it how to function properly, love it and treat it well”

For example, give it proper body alignment, correct biomechanics and healthy nutrition; teach it how to move and learn to prevent injuries; love yourself and listen to your body. Treat yourself well, you deserve the best possible care.

As a resident of La Jolla, Dr. Lotufo enjoys taking long walks at WindanSea beach with her Golden Retriever Solea, swimming at La Jolla Cove, Flamenco dancing and quality time with family and friends.
