Aligned and Nourished: The Healing Philosophy of SCV Chiropractic

NATIONWIDE - NOVEMBER 2025 - (USAnews.com) At SCV Chiropractic in Santa Clarita, Dr. Maes Vioula Rabadi combines chiropractic care, nutrition, and mindfulness to help patients reconnect with their bodies and embrace natural healing.

The Body Remembers How to Heal

Before the bustle of daily life begins, Dr. Maes Vioula Rabadi takes a moment in her clinic, SCV Chiropractic, to breathe deeply. The sunlight gently pours through the windows, illuminating shelves filled with anatomy models and potted plants. This isn't just a chiropractic office to Dr. Maes, it's a sanctuary where healing starts with presence, purpose, and alignment.

Her approach is more than just spinal adjustments. She believes, “The power that made the body heals the body,” quoting B.J. Palmer, the founder of chiropractic care. “Our job is to remove the interference and trust the body’s wisdom.”

This belief drives Dr. Maes' practice and her holistic philosophy, an intricate balance between body, mind, and nourishment.

The Genesis of a Holistic Healer

Dr. Maes’ journey to becoming a chiropractor began with her passion for nature, movement, and mindfulness. To her, health is not a list of symptoms to be checked off, but a rhythm, a flow of vitality that resides in every person. Her calling to chiropractic care emerged from this understanding, which evolved into a deeper realization: true healing requires nourishment on every level, physical, mental, and emotional.

This comprehensive view of wellness led Dr. Maes to establish SCV Chiropractic: a clinic where patients are not just treated but seen as whole beings in need of balance.

Healing Beyond the Adjustment

At SCV Chiropractic, care goes beyond the treatment table. Dr. Maes believes that every patient is a unique story, shaped by their movement, diet, and stress. Each adjustment is intentional and serves as part of a greater healing process.

She integrates chiropractic care with holistic nutrition and mindfulness practices. Drawing from Hippocrates' words, "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food," Dr. Maes teaches that healing begins when the right conditions are created for the body to thrive.

Whether through nourishing foods or simply taking time to breathe, she encourages patients to create the space for their bodies to heal naturally.

The Body’s Innate Wisdom

Central to Dr. Maes’ philosophy is the belief that the body is not broken, it is brilliant. When properly nurtured, it can self-correct, self-regulate, and heal. Yet, in today’s world, this inner wisdom is often drowned out by stress, processed foods, and disconnection.

Through chiropractic adjustments, Dr. Maes removes the physical interference between the brain and body. She then empowers patients with tools for mindful movement, nutrition, and mental clarity to reconnect with their body’s natural healing abilities.

Her patients describe this journey as transformative, a rediscovery of their body's wisdom. For some, it's the calm that follows their first adjustment. For others, it's the realization that true alignment goes beyond structure; it's about emotional and mental release as well.

The Intersection of Science and Soul

What sets Dr. Maes apart is her ability to blend clinical precision with soulful compassion. She is just as comfortable discussing spinal biomechanics as she is guiding conversations about stress, intention, and emotional well-being.

Her treatments are rooted in scientific knowledge, yet her touch and presence bring something more profound: a reminder that healing is human, not mechanical. This blend of science and soul creates an environment of trust, where patients feel both understood and empowered.

Food as Foundational Medicine

Dr. Maes views food as a vital component of healing. She emphasizes that whole, unprocessed foods nourish the body’s cells, reduce inflammation, and aid in repair. In contrast, processed foods and chronic stress contribute to imbalance, manifesting as pain, fatigue, and illness.

Nutrition isn't about following a restrictive diet; it’s about respecting the body with nourishing choices that support its natural healing processes. “When we nourish ourselves with intention,” Dr. Maes says, “we honor the body’s intelligence.”

SCV Chiropractic: Recognized for Excellence

In recognition of its outstanding care, SCV Chiropractic was recently honored as the Best Family & Pediatric Chiropractor in the Greater Los Angeles Area for 2025. This prestigious award highlights Dr. Maes' commitment to patient-centered care, clinical excellence, and her ability to nurture the health of both children and families.

This recognition is a testament to Dr. Maes' unwavering dedication to the holistic well-being of her patients. Whether it’s working with a child experiencing sleep issues or a parent struggling with daily stress, Dr. Maes’ compassionate approach provides a sanctuary for healing.

From Clinic to Community

SCV Chiropractic is not just a place for treatment, it's a community. Families come for chiropractic care and leave with a deeper understanding of their bodies. Children are taught about the importance of posture, movement, and food in shaping their health.

This educational approach extends to Dr. Maes' upcoming children’s book, Sprinkle Sparkle Shiny, available on Amazon. The book, written in memory of her late mother, introduces young readers to self-care and wellness, instilling the values of health and curiosity from an early age.

Nature as Teacher

Dr. Maes finds peace and inspiration in nature, where she observes the same principles of balance and restoration that guide her practice. “Nature never forces healing,” she says. “It allows it.”

Her time spent hiking and writing fuels her passion for helping others find harmony within themselves, whether through gentle adjustments or the written word.

A Philosophy of Connection

At the heart of SCV Chiropractic is a simple truth: connection heals. Whether it’s between the body and spine, mind and body, or patient and practitioner, every adjustment is a reminder of the body’s inherent ability to find balance.

Dr. Maes believes in the power of listening, both to the body and to her patients. It’s through this deep connection that healing unfolds.

Healing as a Journey

Wellness, to Dr. Maes, is a lifelong journey, one guided by curiosity, compassion, and self-awareness. SCV Chiropractic offers a space for patients to explore this journey, providing care, education, and empowerment along the way. "Healing is remembering who you are beneath the noise," Dr. Maes says, "whole, capable, and wise."

For those ready to restore balance and vitality, SCV Chiropractic offers a sanctuary where alignment and nourishment come together to support the body’s natural healing processes.
