Dr. Hesu Whitten, DC

Dr. Hesu Whitten has practiced in Santa Barbara since 1999. He has revolutionized the art of healing with his concept of the 'patient-driven' system, which allows the patient's body wisdom to direct the practitioner, through kinesiology, to the precise structural, nutritional and energetic therapies it needs to function more efficiently and heal. He has built a large YouTube following and taught his methods to hundreds around the world.

While at Parker College of Chiropractic, he became fascinated with an advanced system of muscle testing called Clinical Kinesiology (CK). After spending four years mastering CK, he realized that it was too complex for people to learn and utilize, so Dr. Whitten started developing his own healing system called The Whitten Method. His method took the work to a much deeper level, while utilizing much simpler techniques that can be easily taught. His years of work have been dedicated to developing the most advanced and comprehensive healing system available. This powerful modality provides practitioners with the ability to diagnose and correct imbalances and trauma with fine-tuned precision and thoroughness.
