Our Mission at
Pura Vida Chiropractic
The mission of Pura Vida Chiropractic is to empower the San Antonio community to achieve the health and wellness that it deserves. We put our patients first. We listen to you and help you heal. Our unique holistic approach is more proactive than traditional care. I’m a local San Antonio chiropractor, located in the Castle Hills area, who truly wants to see my patients living a healthy lifestyle. Through my own journey with health and healing I have traveled over 3 continents and 5 different countries. I have studied with master’s in chiropractic, medicine, and naturopathic medicine. Through my studies I learned that symptoms were only the tip of the iceberg. When I first began to learn about chiropractic I thought it was for pain relief but then I realized that it was so much more. I came to a realization that by only focusing on the pain and not correcting the underlying cause of the pain or the problem as doctor’s we would be doing our patients a huge dis-service. This was a major shift for me as I began studying chiropractic. There are so many specialists out there who focus on pain and so few that concentrate on health and healing. I began to study how I could help my patients not only get well quickly but stay well longer. That has become my only focus, to help sick people not only get well but stay well.

Meet Chiropractor Dr. Foss
As a child I suffered from a condition called torticollis. I was in 3rd grade and bent down to pick up a pencil and my neck got stuck to one side. My teacher at the time sent me to the school nurse and then the school nurse sent for my mom who then took me to our family medical doctor. The family doctor took one look at my neck. Not even feeling it and told my mom this kid needs “Valium” and “Vicodin” or pain killers and muscle relaxants. My mom, who did not believe or approve of such strong medicine, much less for a 3rd grader, decided to walk out of the medical office and across the street to a chiropractor. It was the first time anyone in our family had seen a chiropractor. After a complete and thorough examination the chiropractor touched my neck and said “we found the problem.” He laid me down on the table and I felt a painless “snap and pop” and my neck straightened out. Since then I had always wondered if there was more to the body than just “symptoms.”
“From that day forward I wanted to study everything I could about Chiropractic”
Our unique approach to health and healing has brought people to my office from all over the world the last 20 years from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Spain, Canada, France, Ireland, Romania, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway.
