The Align Healing Center Team

Dr. Niele Maimone, DC 
Doctor of Chiropractic

Dr. Niele Maimone is the chiropractor and owner of AlignHealingCenter. She graduated from LifeWestChiropracticCollege after pursuing her undergraduate work in Health Science at Cal State Hayward. She began AlignHealingCenter in 1999 with the intention of providing gentle, effective chiropractic care to the families in her community. As her practice quickly grew, the patterns she began to see in the people that she worked with were the same patterns that she had seen in her own health throughout her life. These patterns were the emergence of blocked energy that revealed itself through symptoms in the body. She no longer looked at a person with a simple “musculo-skeletal” diagnosis again.  Dr. Maimone’s focus on assisting people in their healing process began with her own healing journey. She began to cleanse her body of physical and emotional toxicity and she started to see positive changes in her mood, energy level, cravings and physical symptoms. Dr. Maimone has created the list of services available at Align from those that best served her in her healing process. Addressing the body physically, chemically and emotionally is Dr. Maimone’s passion and her holistic approach to restoring health has helped many people burdened with long-term pain, allergies, and stubborn medical conditions.
