with Uemura Chiropractic
Visit us at our Torrance, CA office or our New York, NY office Where We Help You Achieve Your Health Goals With Chiropractic Care for Total Wellness.
We specialize in corrective care, distinguishing ourselves from many chiropractic offices that primarily offer temporary relief. Our approach includes comprehensive consultations, thorough physical examinations, and X-rays when necessary. The doctor provides clear and detailed explanations, ensuring patients fully understand their care plan. Each treatment is customized to meet the unique needs of the individual, with tailored approaches and varying treatment durations for every patient.
Uemura Chiropractic is excited to introduce shockwave therapy that can help relieve pain, repair scar tissue, and rehabilitate conditions such as joint problems and sports injuries. Our chiropractors, Dr. Uemura and Dr. Lau all provide non-invasive shockwave therapy so that you can recover faster and get back your active lifestyle. Our clinic is using the DUOLITH® SD1 T-TOP Ultra which creates high-energy acoustic waves with therapeutic effectiveness of up to 125 mm penetration depth which sparks biological responses that promote healing, blood flow, and reduce inflammation.
If you’ve been told you need surgery to help your pinched nerve or herniated disc, spinal decompression may help you avoid surgery. Decompression tables are designed to provide a specific force on your spine in order to increase the spaces between your vertebrae. This helps give herniated discs the room they need to heal and takes the pressure off any nerves that are pinched in your back or neck.
Our comprehensive chiropractic care brings expertise to the table, ensuring proactive domination over pain and discomfort. Experience a new normal, cultivated from generations of chiropractic excellence.
We understand that you seek not only relief but also lasting health benefits through our services. That’s why we steer clear of high-risk shortcuts that may promise quick results but often lead to setbacks in the long run. At Uemura Chiropractic Clinic, we prioritize your well-being and long-term health.

Dr. Leo Uemura is a second-generation chiropractor who brings both tradition and innovation to modern chiropractic care. Born in Iowa — the birthplace of chiropractic — Dr. Uemura’s journey began where the profession itself began. He earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the prestigious Palmer College of Chiropractic, also known as “The Fountainhead of Chiropractic.”
Before pursuing chiropractic, Dr. Uemura studied electrical engineering at UC San Diego, where his curiosity for how things work deeply shaped his analytical approach to the human body. But after realizing that a future confined to a cubicle wasn’t his calling, he followed his family legacy and passion for helping people heal naturally — through movement, alignment, and technology.
Dr. Uemura has studied and mastered a wide range of treatment methods that extend beyond traditional chiropractic adjustments, including:
This blend of hands-on skill and advanced technology allows Dr. Uemura to address not just pain, but the root cause of dysfunction — helping patients move, perform, and live better.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Uemura has always been passionate about fitness, soccer, and surfing, but today, his greatest joy and focus is his daughter, who inspires everything he does.

Posted on Google Ashley TakeiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at Uemura Chiropractic offers high quality chiropractic services catered to the results that you want to see as a patient. I've had the privilege to work with Dr. Lau. I'm a runner and I've been dealing with mid back and lower back pain prior to coming. I wanted to have treatment that would allow me to continue running long term. I started my treatment in August and I have seen drastic improvement in my posture as well as in my back pain. Not only has the pain subsided, but my running gait has improved tremendously and I know that this will be beneficial as I continue to train for my marathon. I want to thank Dr. Lau for assessing me and analyzing my movement throughout the treatment to make sure we are making progress in the right direction. Most of all, I thank the entire team for putting their patients needs first and providing intentional care and thoughtful analysis.Posted on Google M TTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is for the three-month neck and shoulders adjustment plan that I recently completed. On day 1, Dr. Leo took the time to thoroughly understand my concerns and goals, explaining the treatment plan in great detail. I decided to proceed with the three-month plan, and the results have been well worth both the time and cost! I’ve noticed significant improvement, especially in my posture. My shoulders were rounded before, but after multiple adjustments, my body now naturally knows where they’re supposed to be. Dr. Leo also emphasized the importance of at-home exercises to build muscle and maintain proper alignment, which I will continue to work on. Both Dr. Leo and Dr. Michael Lau are highly skilled, knowledgeable, and dedicated to their patients’ well-being. The office itself is clean, calming, and well-organized, and the staff is super attentive and professional. I highly recommend their services!Posted on Google Kevin IimuroTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ここはとてもオーガナイズされていて近代的な設備も整い、レントゲンなどに基づいて、ドクターが詳しく説明をしてくれ、計画的に治療を進めてくれています。私の靴下も履けなかった腰の痛みや硬い首もとても良くなりました。スタッフも親切です。お勧めします。Posted on Google Desmond ChiuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been going to Dr. Leo for a few months now. I’ve had marked improvement in my range of motion and my neck curvature. Dr Leo is very careful and explains things thoroughly. I have been skeptical with other chiropractors before but I feel that he and Dr Lau really takes care of my needs. The office staff are extremely friendly and kind and the office is always clean and welcoming. I highly recommend!Posted on Google Nancy BlieseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had wonderful care by both Dr Leo and Dr Lau . I was having a lot of pain in my neck and side back. The adjustments, decompression and learning more corrective exercises has helped me greatly. I no longer have to sit down between doing dishes or fixing meals. I am able to sew and quilt as well as care for my husband assisting him with his care. Thank you so much for helping me. I look forward to continue to care for my husband and care for myself with out pain.Posted on Google Victor ShihTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a few months visit, my neck pain has been gone and my posture improved a lot. Thanks to Dr. Uemura.Posted on Google Kendrick KauTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing Dr. Leo for the past five months, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the care I’ve received. The spinal decompression therapy has been incredibly effective, especially when combined with the lower back exercises recommended by Dr. Leo. My back pain has significantly decreased, and my overall mobility has improved. In addition to the excellent treatment, the entire staff at Leo Uemura Chiropractic Clinic is exceptionally nice and professional. They always make me feel welcome and are genuinely concerned about my well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Leo and his team to anyone in need of chiropractic care.Posted on Google Justin KoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They do a really good job. Great service and listens to all your complaints. Helped both knee and lower back pain. What really got me was how comprehensive it was. X-rays convinced me it is worth the investment.Posted on Google Nao LATrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 3年間続く背中と肩の痛みから好きなゴルフと剣道ができなくなるのかと思っていた時に、昨年レオ先生を紹介して頂き通い続けています。日本でのカイロプラクティックは???と思っていましたが、やはりアメリカはライセンスを取るのが難しいと言うだけあり良いですね。今は腰の治療も始めゴルフができ身体になってきたので感謝です。Posted on Google T KODATrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 10年以上前にも在米時にお世話になり、今回またLAに住む事になり再びLeo先生にお世話になっています。 初回に丁寧にレントゲンを撮って頂き、何が問題となっているか説明して頂きました。 家で出来るトレーニングも教えてくださいます。日本や他の国でもカイロの施術を受けた事がありますが、私の経験の中で1番信頼出来る先生です!
