His postgraduate and continuing education pursuits through the years have covered a wide range of study and training in all facets of the diagnosis and treatment of the nervous, muscular and skeletal systems of the human body. Dr. Jesperson’s overarching philosophy of health recognizes that the body has been endowed with the innate ability to monitor, regulate and heal itself. His efforts, as a doctor of Chiropractic, are only to facilitate the restoration of proper function in order to eliminate pain and establish an overall state of “wellness.” As more and more healthcare consumers seek for conservative, drug-free, non-surgical solutions to their healthcare needs, Dr. Jesperson is confident that his “hands-on” chiropractic techniques combined with physiotherapy, nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices will increasingly be in greater demand.

He is fluent in Spanish which allows him to better serve the Hispanic community here in San Diego. Much of Dr. Jesperson’s free time has been spent as a volunteer, giving service to his church, Rady Children’s Hospital, St. Vincent de Paul Center and the American Red Cross. He is very pleased to say that he has been married to his wife, Margaret, for forty years and they have six children and twenty-one grandchildren (and counting).
