Combining active listening and a comprehensive review of my patients' complete health records, I design personalized treatment plans for acupuncture and herbal medicine or supplements; while also offering lifestyle adjustment recommendations such as dietary changes, mindfulness or physical exercise. When required, I collaborate with Western medicine colleagues, physical therapists, mental health counsellors, and other healthcare professionals to ensure my patients receive the highest level of care tailored to their specific needs. I have been in practice since 2004. My post-graduate studies have primarily focused on the body-mind connection, enabling me to specialize in assisting patients who suffer from migraine, fibromyalgia, autoimmune diseases, anxiety and insomnia, as well as women experiencing infertility and menstrual/menopausal issues. I received a doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese medicine in 2018.

Thomas Marinaro, D.C. attended Chiropractic school in Marietta, Ga where he finished four years and earned his Doctor in Chiropractic. He chose this school due to its philosophy & reputation in teaching a more diverse approach along with its skills in adjusting the human spine.

Dr. Marinaro comes from a family of Chiropractors. His dad TJ, graduated from NY Chiropractic college and was one of the first Chiropractors to practice in Rome, Italy. He remembers with pride & amazement on how the patients responded with satisfaction after an adjustment. Not to say the line of patients spilling into the streets waiting to get adjusted that had a great influence in Dr Marinaro’s decision to follow the same profession.

After completing his undergraduate in Italy, he then moved back to the States to pursue his studies in Chiropractic. After completing 4 years, instead of joining his dad in Rome who was holding the practice for him, he decided to join his brother in Los Angeles where they opened 3 offices & practiced together before selling the practices & then finally opening up on there own.

Dr. Marinaro has been practicing on 3rd & Sweetzer in Los Angeles, & W. Hollywood, Beverly Hills for the past 25 years. He joined a close MD friend from Harvard and attended and earned a Doctorate in Homeopathy which he incorporates along with rehabilitation, fitness, exercise & nutrition in his practice & approach to health & treatments of the spine & body.

At the Pain Relief Center, in addition to Chiropractic, they offer a variety of massages and Acupuncture. His patient base is largely from the entertainment industry and they accept most private PPO insurances.
