About Sanchez System©

Dr. Lisa M. Sanchez - Medewi, Bali 2016

Sanchez System© and your “Health Algorithm”

Sanchez System© is geared toward individuals seeking to attain their highest health and performance. Our brains, like the laptops or mobile devices we use, are the computers of our bodies, endlessly downloading messages and information, every second of the day. With these downloads – overloads, really - we find ourselves thinking, “my back feels tight and painful,’ or “my stomach feels bloated,” “I didn’t sleep so well last night,” and “my head hurts, is a migraine coming on?” or just “darn, my energy is low again today.” We all experience these “break down” messages but tend to ignore them, hoping somehow our bodies will magically “reset” back to feeling healthy one day.

But feeling lousy and in pain doesn’t have to be your daily default mode. Getting you to a pain-free body, full of energy, is our top priority. This begins with a full Sanchez System© Health Assessment to identify each of your health and orthopedic issues and where they arise. Then Sanchez System© introduces your personal “Health Algorithm” - an unmatched, customized treatment plan with a clear vision and the right solutions for you. No two Health Algorithms are the same. We want you to awake each day feeling healthy, vital and connected to your inner Tiger, ready to conquer the day – and Sanchez System’s “Health Algorithm” will get you there.


Why Sanchez System © is your “Go to” Sports Medicine and Wellness Center

When your body is stopped in its tracks by too much pain or discomfort, the culprit is likely not just one but a breakdown of many systems that ultimately sideline you from the game of life. Many people try a few visits to their Physical Therapist or Acupuncturist, or even take a few daily supplements to solve their health and pain issues. Unfortunately this approach doesn’t work. Investing in a single modality to heal is wishful thinking - and ultimately a waste of your time and money. Your body is a unique and complex system, and requires a clear healing vision that matches its complexities. Unlike other healing options, Sanchez System© creates your individual “Health Algorithm”, powered by a unique prescription of Classical Acupuncture, Herbal therapy, Neuromuscular Therapy, Nutrition, Kinetic Link Training and Functional Mobility. This innovative method is designed to shift your healing potential and get you where you want to be – healthy, active, painfree and back in the game.

 

about Dr. Lisa M. Sanchez

Lisa’s vision in creating Sanchez System began at an early age after witnessing her grandmother’s healing abilities. This experience would later prove to be the spark igniting Lisa’s true interest in healing the body.  

Lisa was born in Indiana where her interest in sports, biomechanics and science first began. Lisa’s athleticism and accolades in basketball and tennis earned her inductions into the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame, East Chicago Hall of Fame and the Ventura Hall of Fame as “Female Athlete of the Year.” 

After sustaining many injuries during competition including a ruptured achilles and repeated sprained ankles, her spinal injury proved to be her biggest challenge. Her Doctor prescribed chiropractic, physical therapy and massage but nothing seemed to alleviate her back and hip pain. After reading her MRI, Doctors told her she could never be active again. Facing surgery as the only solution, Lisa became determined to find a way to avoid it. This led her to study Sportsmedicine, Neuromuscular Therapy, Chinese Medicine and Herbal Therapy. These combined modalities provide the missing piece and best solution for Lisa’s patients today. Lisa currently uses these same powerful healing modalities in her practice, creating sustainable healing experiences and amazing pain relief.  

Lisa believes, “self-awareness and balance is the key to health and fitness.” Lisa continues to enjoy, playing basketball, hiking, running, surfing and above all helping others stay functionally active, mobile and healthy. 

 

apprentice Steve Tong

Steve Tong is a Massage Therapist who is currently an apprentice studying Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) and Kinetic Link Training (KLT) Exercise Therapy at Sanchez System©.

Steve obtained his Massage Therapy Certification from California Healing Arts College in 2009. In 2010 he began his practice as a Massage Therapist at Century West Chiropractic. While working at Century West his interest in treating chronic pain and injuries flourished. Between 2014 and 2017 he built his practice at Massage Therapy Center.

Looking to elevate his skill and profession, Steve found his inspiration when he became an apprentice at Sanchez System© in 2015. “The depths of the apprenticeship program have elevated my skills and profession to a new level. My newfound understanding of the body’s biomechanics, myofascial release and functional mobility continue to benefit and inspire my clients each and every day. Clients experience results that have been unachievable through Massage Therapy alone.”

Steve’s (NMT) and (KLT) knowledge along with his National Academy of Sports Medicine (N.A.S.M.) certification gives his clients the edge they have been searching for.

Steve is currently taking new clients at Sanchez System©.

Kinetic Link Training


Phases 1-2-3

Human movement is governed by the engineering concept of the Kinetic Chain, whereby one joint affects another. KLT strengthens weak links along the Kinetic Chain that are the main causes of poor posture, imbalanced muscle development and injury.

TESTIMONIALS

 

I have seen Lisa Sanchez first for sciatica and after for MS for some months now. I had two epidurals for the sciatica that did little, but with Lisa’s guidance alleviated the pain and MS symptoms through natural means. I’ve never felt better.
-Ginni, Sr. Systems Analyst


Lisa is the best practitioner I’ve ever worked with. I think of her as the bodywhisperer. Her knowledge of sports and Chinese medicine is a powerful combo.
-Marianne, ECAC/NCAA Champion


It is not possible in a sentence or a paragraph to describe all of what Lisa does and its incredible benefits to you as the client. Her ability to draw from multiple practices and sources really set her apart, but more importantly she practices what she preaches. Lisa exhibits all the characteristics of health that she tries to infuse in you. She is always vibrant with sparkling eyes that radiate her souls desire for you to get better. What I have learned and experienced with Lisa has made my life better in every way. The past has lost it grip on me, the present is amazing and the future is now full of joy and possibilities.
-Arthur, Tao Master

 

As a young professional my job is demanding on my body and requires sitting at a computer desk for hours at a time. This high-stress environment led to my severe back pain and poor posture. Right when I knew I had to find a solution, I was thrilled to have found Lisa! Lisa is very encouraging. Her knowledge is vast and has led her to create the Sanchez System. In particular, the Sanchez System is unique in how it has really helped develop my technique as a runner and has transformed the way I approach and see myself in my sport and profession. I know that I would never have achieved the level of fitness and wellness I'd always strived for if not for Lisa and her unique approach to overall health and vitality.  I have seen an incredible change with the overall strength, mobility and endurance of my muscles both at work and at the gym. Thanks Lisa!

I’ve been a patient/client of Lisa’s for 15 years.  Before I was introduced to Lisa’s “Sanchez System", I had resigned myself to retire from a lifetime of ice hockey. I felt I had reached an age where sane, mature individuals have long ceased abusing their bodies in such an extreme sport. 15 years later, I’m still on the ice and competing against kids less than half my age.  My conditioning and internal balance has allowed my mind to not only accept but encourage physical challenges that a man over 60 would normally accept as “that time has passed”. Lisa has single handedly allowed me to write those athletic checks that my body can still cash. Her knowledge of Eastern Medicine, combined with her overall understanding of the mind and body has given me mobility and energy now, and will 20 years from now.
-Bryan Turner, Hockey Player/Runner, Founder & former CEO Priority Records, CEO Sound-Live Music Group

 

For more than 3 years I suffered from chronic lower back and shoulder pain, which created a lack of general flexibility and mobility. In short, I wasn’t myself and couldn’t train as hard or as effectively as I wanted to. After trying everything from yoga to pilates to massage and more, I was incredibly frustrated. And then I met Lisa. Lisa came highly recommended and has been incredible. She’s helped strengthen my weaknesses and correct my structural and digestive imbalances, and she’s taught me how to stay focused, determined and disciplined. She takes a holistic approach to physical training and health, and does not rush to conclusion with what’s wrong. She’s patient, experienced and knowledgable, and is easy to work with. And she pushes me to overcome my limits and achieve more! I would highly recommend Lisa for anyone that wants to reach their athletic potential overcome re-occurring health issues.
-Jamie Snider, Managing Partner Sevenpoint/ 5K Runner

 

I have been seeing Lisa for several years. She has helped me tremendously. Lisa is great, because she is so knowledgeable about every aspect of the human body and also how to treat, heal, strengthen, and understand what is going on with my bio mechanics and injuries. I have a scoliosis and a hip condition that I was born with and years of wear and tear in sports and work. When I came to Lisa I was a mess. She has taught me how to take better ownership of my injuries and how to focus on my healing. I have been improving my nutrition and my work outs with very specific targeted kinetic link exercises and movement therapy that Lisa has taught me. She also treats me through various modalities like Acupuncture, Active Release Therapy, Neuromuscular Therapy, High Pulse Wave Therapy, and Stretching. She listens. She is patient. She is empathetic. She has an ability to understand exactly where and what I point to and most times I don’t say anything, because her intuition leads her to solutions and healing for my body. More importantly, she has given me the resources and knowledge to understand and begin to treat and strengthen through many of the exercises that she has taught me and I have made and continue to make progress on this journey. Thank you Lisa!
–Todd Stein, Owner of Campbell Wellman Properties Brokerage

I have dealt with pain for most of my life. Born with scoliosis, then several car accidents and working hard has left me with various injuries. The first time I worked with Lisa she was able to straighten my neck and shoulders and clear my spine pain. I can say I felt relief that brought tears of joy. I’ve been to chiropractors since I was under the age of five but there really isn’t a comparison to the work Lisa does.Lisa’s work is about rebuilding from the foundation, her goal is to get to the root of the problem. I’m so used to seeing a professional that only does one treatment. Lisa brings a variety of treatment options along with her education and intuitive healing abilities. I strongly recommended seeing this healer.
-Noelle R., MFT

I first started seeing Lisa when I was referred to her for shoulder pain after a car accident and athletic injury. I had been dealing with this pain for 2 years, and Iassumed it would be something I had to live with for the rest of my life. After just one session with Lisa I could feel a positive difference in my shoulder, and after about two months of consistent treatment my shoulder was completely pain free, and my body was in better alignment than it had been in years. Lisa also helped me to address some of the lingering symptoms of post concussive syndrome that I had after the accident, and our regular acupuncture sessions and Chinese herbal supplements drastically improved my migraines, mood and overall health. I am so grateful for Lisa’s knowledge and expertise, and I can’t imagine where I’d be without her treatments!
–Megan, Nutrition & Lifestyle Coach, Acroyoga/Aerialist

I first sought treatment at Healing Path 3 for my severe migraines. Lisa discovered a correlation between my high blood pressure and my migraines. Since I am a runner, she helped me with my bunion pain and cervical spinal stenosis. She explained the importance of correct posture while texting, sitting and reading to allow the neck to heal. She also corrected my running gait to improve my running and take the stress off my painful bunion. Lisa helped me with my nutrition and overall lifestyle, prescribing Chinese herbal formulas that address all of my issues. She has helped me heal my high cholesterol, high blood pressure, spinal stenosis, digestive issues, postural distortion, muscle imbalance and energy levels. Lisa is knowledgeable in so many areas as she offers classical acupuncture, Neuromuscular Therapy and Kinetic link training/ corrective exercise. She has patiently helped me with my health and I celebrate this everyday.
