About Structure

Structure is conveniently located in South Carlsbad, in the Bluwater Crossing building (directly adjacent to the Carlsbad-Poinsettia Rail Station).  Easy parking available.

We are dedicated to being available when you need us.  We are open Monday through Friday with flexible hours, and Saturdays/Sundays by appointment. You can check up-to-date availability and book appointments via the “book appointment” link on this page, or at www.structure.janeapp.com.  If you have an urgent need for an after-hours appointment, please reach out to us at 832.689.5022 (text or call), or email us at structurecarlsbad@gmail.com. 

We are committed to working with each patient one-on-one.  During your appointment, you will notice that we are not double booking, or seeing new patients every five minutes.  Your appointment time is yours alone, which allows us to focus on you individually.   

We take the time to carefully evaluate each patient in our care, and custom tailor a treatment plan specifically based on listening to your needs and goals.  Dr. Valdez creates your treatment plan based on an initial examination, and adjusts/refines as necessary during follow up treatments.  

During your appointment, you’ll benefit from a custom-created Leander table that uses Flexion Distraction.  This is a gentle, safe, controlled form of non weight-bearing movement that is specifically designed for spinal pain relief, which allows you to focus on healing faster.

“Wow! I was referred to Dr. Valdez by a trusted friend, and I went to get an evaluation yesterday.”

I was more than impressed by Dr. Valdez's knowledge and detailed evaluation which was extremely helpful. It seems to me he uses techniques from his chiropractic education, deep tissue massage/ART, and Physical Therapy. I have already recommended him to friends. Thank you so much for listening and helping me Dr. Valdez - you are amazing!

Qualifications:

Doctor of Chiropractic

Licensed Chiropractor, California

Dr Valdez’s lifelong passion for fitness and health developed at an early age, through his father who passed on his love of weight lifting.  His focus on fitness evolved during his time in the US Army, stationed in Hawaii, where he received multiple medals of commendation for physical fitness and participated in Operation Uphold Democracy.  Dr. Valdez is an avid seeker of new knowledge in all aspects of science-based health and longevity, which he then uses to refine his techniques and procedures in the clinic.  

Dr Valdez is a lifelong learner. In addition to the degrees and qualifications listed above, he also has a strong background in Nutrition, Athletic Training, Physical Fitness, Pre and Post-Rehabilitation, Massage, Muscle Strengthening and Endurance Running.

Dr Valdez is deeply motivated by human connection and the knowledge that he is making a difference in the quality of life of each patient in his care.   

When not in his clinic, you can find him at the beach with his wife and daughter, perusing his comics and superhero memorabilia, and planning his next adventure.

  • "I don't normally write reviews- this is the third review I've ever done- but the treatment I received exceeded all expectations (having seen dozens of chiropractors, physical therapists, and massage therapists over the years) and I felt it was worthy of writing a review. Doctor Valdez stands out above the rest, blending chiropractic care with massage therapy and physical therapy, leading to exceptional results. One stop shop! Very satisfied and highly recommend."

    Jon Mott

  • "Jason knows what’s he’s doing. What I love about his practice is that you can tell he really cares about what he does. I feel like a lot of chiropractors just crank out patients. Jason sits with you and explains what’s going on and also helps you with figuring out what you can do on your own to make your pain better. Would absolutely recommend."

    Mikiah Fender

  • "Dr Jason is not your typical chiropractor. You won't be in and out of his clinic in 5 minutes. He takes the time to really understand your body and what's going on and communicates well. The adjustments and soft tissue work he's done have made a huge difference. I'm now exercising regularly again without feeling pain. Also he does not double book like many chiropractors do so when you're in the clinic you don't feel rushed at all. His prices are very reasonable also. Highly recommend."

    Jaunuel Arcilla

  • "My experience seeing Dr. Valdez was unlike any chiropractic adjustment I’ve had. He took the time to understand what was going on with me, and he has an uncanny ability to zero right in on areas that are painful. After over a year of plantar fasciitis pain, I left my adjustment with no pain. While most chiropractors seem to do a series of the same adjustments every time, this truly felt like a session that was catered to healing my specific aches and pains. Prices are very reasonable. I will be back!"

    Fabienne O'Neill

  • "Jason spend almost 3 hours with me on my first visit. He wanted my history and continued to discover why I have issues with certain parts of my body. It was awesome to have a healthcare individual in this day and age take the time to figure it out and give me exercise's to improve my body and posture. I would go back to Dr Jason and would also recommend him to my friends."

    Kathryn

  • "Jason is so knowledgeable and so effective! Every time I go I get more than enough time/attention and not only get treatment but exercises to help. Jason is very passionate about what he does, and it shows in his practice. Great guy, good attitude and not pushing you to come regularly like some chiropractors. "

    Stephanie

  • "I’ve been to lots of chiropractor in my life, Jason is by far the best and most thorough. He is gentle with the cracks, but more importantly he works with you on how to build the right muscles that will improve your posture and pain. And even more important, he does muscle work. He knows the body well, like he can look at you when you walk in the door and see your issues, he’s super intuitive. He’s like a chiropractor, massage therapist and rehab person all in one. You can tell he does it because he loves it. He won’t try to sell you a bunch of sessions, just go when you need him. I’m so glad I found him. He helped me with chronic neck pain/knots and continues to help me when any issues pop up. I go in in pain and walk out feeling great each time. Thanks Jason!!"

    Monica

  • "Dr. Jason Valdez is an outstanding chiropractor and person. He really gives every patient the time and attention to create an opportunity to heal and and learn about how to help yourself. In 3 visits I feel better than I have in years. My lower back pain is significantly better and I feel stronger and more balanced. Thanks Jason for being more than your average chiropractor and really caring about people and their well-being."

    Sarah

  • "Dr. Valdez took plenty of time for evaluation, explanation & suggested multiple exercises to help with my muscle imbalances. He has a very positive manner & approach when communicating. "

    Randy

  • "Dr Jason Valdez, is awesome! He has such a breadth of knowledge, is super kind, engaging and really knows how to connect the dots and find the problem areas. Not only was his treatment fantastic, but he also supplied me with a hardy home program in order to anchor the positive changes."

    Kristin

  • "The level of experience and depth of Jason's knowledge is astounding. Not only does he know every single detail of the parts of my body that are needing "healing", he is able to explain and exemplify all of his knowledge to a layman like myself. He helped me understand so clearly why I was feeling certain ways that I was after injuries or why I could or couldn't move through certain postures or movements. He now has me on track to heal my body and allow for me to continue growing and strengthening myself. It truly has been a pleasure and eye-opening working/learning with Structure. Not to mention the guys are absolute pleasure to be around. Thank you so much brother "

    Aaron

  • "Dr Jason Valdez is very knowledgeable in his work, thorough, and attentive to our bodies. I’ve seen him on multiple occasions. He not only explains what’s happening in your body he will give you exercises and tools to actually strengthen the areas in need. He’s taken care of a few of our staff members and we will continue seeing him for regular visits in order to stay healthy and be able to show up in our daily lives and work. Great location, clean office, friendly and extremely competent in his line of work!"

    Vianna

  • "The best experience ever! I think his title should be ‘total body and mind worker’. Innovative and comprehensive. Truly feel that he is in the business to help his clients- here’s to a healthy and strong body- thanks Jason!!"
