About Joly Chiropractic — Serving Fremont, CA Since 2003
At Joly Chiropractic in Fremont, CA, we believe that no one deserves to live in pain — at any age, at any stage of life. Since opening our doors in 2003, Dr. Joseph J. Joly and our dedicated team have helped thousands of patients find lasting relief from pain, recover from injuries, and reclaim the active, comfortable lives they deserve. We are proud to be one of Fremont’s most trusted chiropractic practices, and we’re committed to delivering the highest level of personalized care to every patient we see.
Our Philosophy — Find the Cause, Not Just the Symptom
The foundation of everything we do at Joly Chiropractic is simple: treat the cause of your problem, not just the symptom. It’s easy to mask pain with medication. It’s harder — and far more valuable — to identify what is actually causing that pain and correct it at the source. That’s the commitment we make to every patient who walks through our door.
Your spine is, both literally and figuratively, the backbone of your entire body. The nervous system that runs through it communicates with every organ, muscle, and tissue you have. When vertebrae are misaligned, the resulting nerve interference doesn’t just cause back or neck pain — it can affect areas of the body that seem completely unrelated to the spine. Many patients are surprised to discover that conditions they’d attributed to other causes begin to improve once their spinal health is addressed. We take the time to explain these connections to our patients because we believe an informed patient is an empowered patient.
Advanced Training and Integrated Treatment Methods
What distinguishes Joly Chiropractic from a typical chiropractic office is the breadth and depth of Dr. Joly’s training and the variety of treatment methods available under one roof. Our primary approach to spinal care is the Gonstead Technique — a highly systematic, evidence-based method that uses a thorough multi-step examination protocol before any adjustment is ever made. This specificity means our adjustments are targeted, effective, and safe.
For soft tissue conditions — the muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves that surround and support the spine and extremities — Dr. Joly is certified in Active Release Technique (ART), the gold standard for soft tissue injury treatment. ART allows us to address the scar tissue and adhesions that develop from injury, repetitive use, and chronic tension — conditions that chiropractic adjustments alone cannot fully resolve.
We also offer a range of specialty treatment protocols including Corpus Prime full-body treatment, Thoracic pART for asthma and acid reflux, our Sinus and Allergy Protocol, and targeted Carpal Tunnel treatment. These services represent decades of clinical refinement and are available exclusively at Joly Chiropractic.
Auto Accident and Injury Care
We have a long track record of helping patients recover from auto accident injuries and whiplash. In the vast majority of these cases, treatment is covered at no out-of-pocket cost to the patient — and we handle all of the insurance paperwork so you can focus entirely on getting better. If you’ve been in an accident, don’t wait for symptoms to worsen. Early intervention dramatically improves outcomes.
A Welcoming, Patient-First Environment
We know that visiting a new healthcare provider can feel uncertain, especially when you’re already in pain. That’s why we’ve put considerable care into making Joly Chiropractic a warm, welcoming, and professional environment from the moment you walk in. Our front desk team will greet you by name, answer your questions, and make sure you feel at ease before you ever see the doctor.
We strive to run on time, respect your schedule, and deliver consistent, high-quality care at every single visit. We want you to walk out of each appointment feeling better than when you walked in — and we work hard to make sure that’s exactly what happens.
