DR. KACI MADDEN, DC ACP

BRINGING HOPE

While she works with a variety of patients, Dr. Madden especially loves bringing hope to those who feel discouraged by the healthcare system. She has personally healed hundreds who describe their life as being “transformed” from managing their pain to thriving. She loves working with patients who are motivated for long-term results and value measurable results. From moms and families to young professionals, from fibromyalgia to chronic migraines, Dr. Kaci has seen great results with every patient who is willing to commit to their long-term health.

Inspiration

Dr. Madden’s inspiration to become a chiropractor stemmed from witnessing the transformative power of chiropractic firsthand. When she was 16, her two-year-old sister experienced leg pain that rapidly progressed to loss of circulation and motor function. Despite seeking help from various healthcare professionals, it was a local chiropractor who quickly identified and resolved the issue, allowing her sister to walk out of the clinic that day. Witnessing this incredible transformation ignited Dr. Madden’s passion for chiropractic.

Throughout graduate school, Dr. Madden was intrigued with the ability of chiropractic to unlock the body’s innate healing potential. With Upper Cervical care, she discovered a method that was objective and specific enough to make that process repeatable and successful every time.

Originally from Florida, but San Diego is Home

Dr. Madden’s educational journey began with a bachelor’s degree from the University of Florida, followed by her pursuit of a doctorate in Chiropractic at Parker University in Dallas. Building upon her foundational knowledge, she dedicated herself to extensive post-graduate work, specializing in the mastery of the Knee-Chest Upper Cervical Technique.

After honing her skills, Dr. Madden had the opportunity to practice this technique in Hawaii for two years before establishing her clinic in San Diego. This valuable experience further enhanced her expertise and solidified her commitment to providing exceptional chiropractic care.

Outreach

Dr. Madden’s compassionate spirit extends beyond her practice at The Specific. She has had the privilege of participating in multiple mission trips to Central America, providing much-needed healthcare to local communities who often lack access to affordable medical attention. These experiences have deeply impacted her and fueled her desire to help individuals who have struggled to find effective health solutions.

With a special focus on children and mothers facing challenging health decisions, Dr. Madden’s heart goes out to those who have experienced the stress that healthcare can bring to a family. Her mission is to alleviate that burden and provide compassionate care.

Empowering Parents

While she works with a variety of patients, Dr. Madden specializes in empowering parents who feel overwhelmed by health issues to regain control of their families’ health by providing the expertise it takes to heal for the long term.

If a patient is suffering from an ailment that does not make them a candidate for upper cervical chiropractic care, Dr. Kaci can refer the patient to a medical professional who can help. Her highest value is integrity and thus she has established a network of medical professionals in San Diego so that she can always refer you to your best care option.

Beyond her role as a chiropractor, Dr. Madden embraces an active lifestyle and a deep appreciation for the outdoors. Whether it’s hiking, working out, or playing beach volleyball, she finds joy in any activity that allows her to play in the sunshine. This passion for an active life fuels her desire to extend the same opportunity to everyone she encounters. Driven by her commitment to health and well-being, Dr. Madden is passionate about empowering individuals and families to lead healthier lives, ultimately contributing to the creation of a thriving community.
