Business Owner

Dr Cynthia Kodama is a native southern Californian, who graduated from CSULA in 2001 and then went on to getting her Osteopathic doctor degree at Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona in 2006. She completed 2 yrs of Family Practice residency at Pacific Hospital of Long Beach from 2006-​08. She enjoys treating patients of all ages and all walks of life. She has a special interest in treating newborns and athletes. As an athlete herself, she understands the nature and determination that sometimes keeps one from allowing the body to rest and repair. Osteopathic manipulation changed her life. Her journey is what has motivated her to give back and share the healing gift, so that others would know there is hope for better days. Her goal is to help the body heal itself through a holistic approach to medicine.
