HISTORY
Dr. Taylor entered private practice in Santa Cruz in 1987 at "Back to Basics" Chiropractic on 7th Avenue next to the Harbor Cafe. At the time, the practice was nearly an all-pediatrics practice. As years went by, the practice evolved into a family practice. The name and location changed to Live Oak Chiropractic in 1995 and she has remained at this location since.
She volunteer teaches at several chiropractic colleges in the USA as well as in Europe. She is currently the Executive Director of the Gonstead Clinical Studies Society.
Dr. Jeanne Taylor
Meet the doc,
Dr. Taylor is a native of St. Louis, Missouri. She attained her BS from the University of Missouri-Columbia and her MS from San Jose State University. She graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic-West in 1986 with the degree, Doctor of Chiropractic (DC).
She has attained the status of "Diplomate" of the Gonstead Clinical Studies Society and currently serves as the Executive Director of that non-profit organization.
She is an avid sports fan, particularly of the St. Louis Cardinals baseball and NHL Hockey. She enjoys traveling, walking, camping, kayaking, bike riding and music.
Testimonials:
"Jeanne is an expert! She knows how to properly adjust and she has helped me with my muscle spasms from a car accident from a couple of years ago and a dislocated coccyx from a mountain biking accident. She has a gentle touch, an amazing bedside manner, and the right equipment. My limbs and spine are balanced now thanks to her. Highly recommend especially if you are new to chiropractic."
"Jeanne is so professional and nice. She is knowledgable and always offers a smile and constructive advice. A real pleasure to visit and my back thanks her"
"I have been to chiropractors all over this country. Dr. Jeanne Taylor is the absolute best, most talented, and caring chiropractor I have ever been to. You have to try her. I have been using her services since 1997, have lived in two places since then, and currently live in Louisiana. I return to Santa Cruz twice a year for family and every time I am there I always schedule an appointment. She always leaves me feeling so much better. No matter where I live in this country I will always come back to Dr. Jeanne for my adjustments!"

-Dr. Taylor
Gonstead procedures are the result of extensive clinical research by Clarence S. Gonstead, founder of the world-famous Gonstead Clinic of Chiropractic in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin and his associates.
Doctor Gonstead’s fifty-five years of continuous practice and over four million chiropractic adjustments resulted in the most complete method of biomechanical analysis available for use by today’s doctors of chiropractic.
So why don’t all chiropractors use this technique? Because the analysis takes more time and mastering the art of delivering a specific adjustment takes a LOT of practice and dedication.
Gonstead Doctor Protocol:
Steps Upon First Visit (Pre-Adjustment)
Visualization
Visualization is a way to cross-reference all the other findings. Your chiropractor is an expert in looking for subtle changes in your posture and movement which could indicate any problems.
Instrumentation
The instrument of choice in the Gonstead System is the Nervoscope.
The Nervoscope detects uneven distributions of heat along the spine which can be indicative of inflammation and nerve pressure. This instrument is guided down the length of your back and feels like two fingers gliding down each side of your spine.
Static Palpation
This is simply the process of feeling (or palpating) your spine in a stationary (or static) position. Your chiropractor will feel for the presence of swelling (or edema), tenderness and any abnormal texture or tightness in the muscles and other tissues of your back.
Motion Palpation
This process involves feeling the spine while moving and bending it at various angles. This enables the chiropractor to determine how easily or difficult each segment in your spine moves in different directions.
X-Ray Analysis
(Post Initial Exam)
X-ray films enable your doctor to visualize the entire structure of your spine. This is helpful in evaluating posture, joint, and disc integrity, vertebral misalignments, and ruling out any pathologies, or recent fractures that may be present or contributing to the patient’s condition. These full-spine radiographs are taken in the standing, weight-bearing position to fully substantiate the examination findings.
Until now, you may have thought that all chiropractors “do the same thing” and “adjust the same way.” The fact is, it just isn’t so! But you need to know why!
The Gonstead System
Gonstead procedures (unlike most western chiropractors) are the result of extensive clinical research by Clarence S. Gonstead, founder of the world-famous Gonstead Clinic of Chiropractic in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin, and his associates.
Doctor Gonstead’s fifty-five years of continuous practice and over four million chiropractic adjustments resulted in the most complete method of biomechanical analysis available for use by today’s doctors of chiropractic.
