Dr. Jennifer Gordon, DC

Dr. Jennifer is the founder of Taproot Chiropractic and Temecula's only FOCUS-certified family chiropractor. With 8 years of clinical experience across multiple care models — from multidisciplinary clinics to high-volume wellness to specialized pediatric and prenatal offices — she built Taproot to deliver the kind of focused, neurological care that families in the Temecula Valley have been missing.

Her passion is working with the families other practitioners don't know how to help: the baby who hasn't slept in weeks, the child whose ADHD medication isn't enough, the pregnant mom who's been told to just push through the pain. Dr. Jennifer sees these challenges not as problems to manage, but as nervous system signals that can be addressed at the root.

Why She Started Taproot

"After 8 years in different care models, I realized families need more than what most practices offer. They need a chiropractor who understands neurodevelopment, who uses objective data to guide decisions, and who treats the whole family — not just the person on the table. That's what Taproot is. A place where parents are heard, children are understood, and care actually changes the trajectory of a family's health."

Areas of Focus

Dr. Jennifer sees patients across every age group but has particular depth in:

  • Infant colic, torticollis, reflux, and feeding difficulties

  • ADHD, sensory processing, autism spectrum, and developmental support in children

  • Prenatal comfort, Webster Technique, and birth preparation

  • Postpartum recovery and nervous system regulation

  • Adult stress, headaches, and chronic pain rooted in nervous system dysfunction
