Summit Health Group expands one-roof spinal care in Thousand Oaks

Summit Health Group says its Thousand Oaks practice now combines chiropractic, primary care and integrative medicine to help Conejo Valley patients get coordinated treatment for back and neck pain. The model is designed to reduce referrals, speed diagnosis and support longer-term spine health.

Why it matters: - Summit Health Group’s integrated model is meant to solve a common care gap: patients with back or neck pain often bounce between providers who do not coordinate treatment. - The practice says having chiropractic, primary care and integrative medicine in one place can speed relief and improve continuity for Conejo Valley and Ventura County patients. - The approach is aimed at both symptom relief and longer-term spine health, which can matter for people with chronic pain, desk-related strain or disc problems.

What happened: - Summit Health Group launched an integrated spinal care program at its Rolling Oaks Drive location in Thousand Oaks. - The practice combines chiropractic care, primary care and integrative medicine under one roof. - Dr. Shay Shani, DC, QME, founder and clinic director, said the goal is lasting relief and better overall health rather than temporary symptom management. - The practice says the model serves patients in Thousand Oaks and nearby Southern California communities.

The details: - Every new patient receives a thorough evaluation before any adjustment or treatment plan begins. - The care team then builds a plan based on the diagnosis and the patient’s needs. - Treatment may include gentle chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression and rehabilitative exercise. - Patients with disc-related conditions can use non-surgical spinal decompression to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. - Chiropractic care focuses on restoring spinal alignment and joint function, which can reduce pain, improve range of motion and support the body’s ability to heal. - Some patients can also receive acupuncture or regenerative therapy without an outside referral. - Records, imaging and provider communication stay in one place. - Chiropractic and acupuncture services are available through direct access, with no primary care membership required. - Summit Health Group accepts all PPO insurance plans and Medicare. - The practice is located at 55 Rolling Oaks Dr, Suite 100 in Thousand Oaks. - Summit Health Group treats patients from Westlake Village, Newbury Park, Moorpark, Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Simi Valley, Camarillo and surrounding communities.

Between the lines: - The integrated setup is as much about convenience as care quality. - Keeping records and provider discussions inside one practice can reduce friction for patients who would otherwise repeat their history across multiple offices. - The practice is positioning itself as a single destination for people seeking both pain relief and whole-person wellness.

What's next: - Patients seeking chiropractic care in Thousand Oaks can schedule a consultation with Summit Health Group. - The practice is likely to continue marketing its one-roof model to people looking for coordinated spinal care in the Conejo Valley.

The bottom line: - Summit Health Group is betting that coordinated, multi-discipline care will be more effective than the traditional patchwork approach to back and neck pain.
