 Helping
to Set People Free From Pain
and Illness to Express
Their Full
Potential Since 1983
Dr. Matthew Norton has
been impacting the lives of individuals and families
for over twenty years with his wellness message. Its
focus is upon our incredible inborn potential to heal
and thrive amidst life’s injuries and stresses. He
teaches that the ability to live a long and vital life
with expanded capacity requires a nervous system free
of the interference caused by those injuries and stresses. Dr.
Norton is unique in the San Joaquin Valley in combining
these foundational principles with a cutting edge strategy
for measuring and correcting these health-disturbing
interferences.
He founded Norton
Chiropractic Wellness Center in 1997 to focus
exclusively upon this powerful, life and health transforming approach. It
stands apart from the medical and general chiropractic
symptom- treating model and according to the doctor
is sometimes not understood because it is still ahead
of its time.
 Improving
Nervous System Function Improves Health; Improving
Health Improves
Quality of Life
Dr.
Norton unites his passion for learning,
teaching, and
healing with a compassion for those who are struggling
with pain and illness or not performing at
their peak. He brings to his work a high
level of academic achievement and cutting-edge bodymind
research. However, he also brings a deeply
caring heart transformed by difficult personal life
experiences.
Chief among the hurdles
was the sudden death of his first wife in 1987, at
age 34, leaving him with her 5-year-old twin daughters
that he had just adopted.  Remarriage
the following year led to the challenge of family blending
and raising three same age girls. Dr. Norton
has a beautiful, supportive wife named Judy and five
children in all. Healing through his devastating
loss involved a deepened commitment to God, his family,
and to his personal development. It
also produced a strong desire to positively impact
as many others as possible toward greater wholeness
of body, mind, and spirit.
 Practicing what he preaches
is Dr. Norton’s
lifestyle. He has availed himself of consistent
precision chiropractic care to overcome numerous childhood
traumas. These injuries, including a significant
auto accident, negatively impacted his own spinal health
and had left him with chronic neck pain and headaches
by age 20. This is a primary motivator
in his teaching of the importance of early subluxation
detection and correction to avoid permanent damage
and future misery.
Dr. Norton graduated
from Life West Chiropractic College in Hayward, Ca.
in early 1983 as class valedictorian. He
has always practiced progressive, specialized and gentle
methods of spinal/nervous system care. His
mastery of Torque Release Technique with the advanced
Integrator instrument has come through years of study
and the care of many thousands of patients since 1997. During
the same time he has also become an expert in the conduction
and interpretation of computerized nervous system functional
assessments.
 Dr. Norton has dedicated himself
to continual educational upgrades through professional
coursework and certifications as well as constant self-study. He
has further expressed his commitment to understanding
and connecting with his patients through courses and
accreditation as both a behavioral style and values
analyst. He
also teaches and conducts business workshops utilizing
this insightful information. He completed a one-year
certification program in whiplash/spinal trauma as
well as achieving the status of Qualified Medical Examiner
in the Worker’s Compensation system.
Dr. Norton loves jazz
music, movies, and reading strange things like quantum
physics. He enjoys
physical exercise, including running. He completed
two half marathons and his first full marathon in 2002. He
is grateful for his life, health, and the knowledge
and talents he possesses to help people who truly desire
to be at their best. He would welcome the opportunity
to assist you.
