Chiropractor

Amelia Mazgaloff D.C.

Doctor Amelia Mazgaloff is a chiropractor at Chiro-Health, Inc in San Francisco, CA. Originally from Bulgaria, Dr. Mazgaloff relocated to the U.S in 1999 to reunite with her father. In Bulgaria, she received her Master’s degree in physical education and kinesiology, the study of human movement. If you are struggling with neck or back pain, headaches or migraines, carpal tunnel, sciatica, or any other health condition please contact us today.

In the United States Dr. Mazgaloff completed her education in X-ray technology and started working for the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan, one of the lead spine orthopedic hospitals in the country. For three years she worked with spine surgeons imaging the surgeries. This is when she realized that she would want to participate in the preventative and rehabilitative aspects of treatment, rather than be an observer of an end result that was mostly not improving the quality of life for the patients.

She moved to the west coast to receive her chiropractic training from Life Chiropractic College West and graduated in 2001. While in school Dr. Mazgaloff focused on several areas of chiropractic. She is most interested in a multidisciplinary approach where massage, chiropractic, physiotherapy, and exercise rehabilitation are combined together to treat the root causes of the patient’s condition and alleviate it once and for all.

Based on this philosophy Dr. Mazgaloff established Chiro-Health, Inc in 2004. Since then the doctors at Chiro-Health have been serving the Bay Area community in many ways. They can often be found at sports events, local buildings, and schools, performing ergonomic evaluations, spinal screenings, running gate analysis, and helping to educate the public on how chiropractic can help prevent injuries and improve their lives.

Acupuncturist

Sophia Cantizano, L.A

Sophia (she/her) is a licensed acupuncturist fluent in English and Spanish. She specializes in treating orthopedic pain alongside a wide range of internal medicine conditions, taking an adaptive, individualized approach to each patient’s needs, sensitivities, and goals.

Her treatments may include trigger point needling when appropriate and well-tolerated, always with careful attention to calming and regulating the nervous system. She also incorporates complementary modalities such as cupping and gua sha to support pain relief, circulation, and recovery.

Sophia’s practice is grounded in a strong foundation of Western anatomy and physiology, informed by the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her clinical experience includes an internship with the University of California, Berkeley Athletic Department, where she treated Olympic and collegiate athletes, as well as volunteer work at the Charlotte Maxwell Clinic, providing care to underserved women undergoing cancer treatment.

Her goal is to help patients return to what they love—whether that’s getting back to the gym, playing pickleball, sleeping soundly, or simply moving through daily life with less pain. With every visit, Sophia strives to ensure patients feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for throughout their healing process.

She holds a Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine from the Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine College (AIMC) in Berkeley and a Bachelor’s degree from Columbia University.
