Our Philosophy
At the core of my practice is a patient-centered approach. I believe in treating each patient as an individual, understanding their unique needs, and developing customized treatment plans that address their specific concerns. My goal is to not only alleviate pain but also to empower my patients to take charge of their health through education and proactive care.
Patient-Centered Care
Communication is key to effective healthcare. I encourage you to share your thoughts, concerns, and goals with me so that we can work together to achieve the best outcomes. Whether you have been a long-time patient or are new to the office, I am here to listen and to provide the support you need.
Open Communication
I am a strong advocate for holistic health, which means considering all aspects of a patient's well-being. Chiropractic care is not just about spinal adjustments; it's about understanding how lifestyle, nutrition, exercise, and mental health all play a role in overall wellness. I work collaboratively with my patients to create comprehensive strategies that promote long-term health.
Holistic Health
Meet Dr. Bryan Payne, D.C.
Dr. Payne earned his degree in Chiropractic at Palmer College of Chiropractic West. He previously owned and operated a successful practice in San Jose, CA for over 20 years. Throughout his journey as a chiropractor, he has had the privilege of helping countless individuals achieve better health and well-being through personalized chiropractic care.
In 2025, Dr. Payne decided to relocate himself to the East Bay to take over a practice in Castro Valley formerly known as Guliford Chiropractic, as his predecessor, Dr. John Guilford, settled into retirement. He is joined in his new location by his Office Manager, Michaela Rice, and his loyal companion, Coco the Golden-doodle.
A message from Dr. Payne: “I have been married to my wonderful spouse, Kim, for 30 years. Kim and I have 3 boys. Tyson (24), Jayden (22), and Zach (18). Family is at the heart of everything I do. We enjoy spending quality time together, whether it's exploring the outdoors, Golfing , or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home. Our family values the importance of a healthy lifestyle, and we are excited to become an active part of this wonderful community.”

For patients who are new to chiropractic, we recommend coming back the following week to meet with Dr. Payne to give you a chance to voice any concerns and to ensure your adjustment went as expected. After that, the cadence of your treatment will be up to you and Dr. Payne (to determine what is best).
