Our Story
Sunrise Chiropractic began in 2022, when Dr. Julie Soloduka purchased a long-standing Santa Barbara practice and began its next chapter. The name reflects the feeling we want every patient to leave with: a fresh start and a sense of possibility with their health and well-being. Our goal is to create a welcoming space where patients feel supported on their journey toward better health, one visit, and one new day at a time.
MORE THAN BACK PAIN
What is chiropractic, really?
Chiropractic is a gentle way to adjust the joints to restore function and ease interference in the nervous system. When your spine and body are aligned, your nervous system can communicate more freely — and a well-connected nervous system gives your body its best chance to heal itself and thrive.
While many people first come in for a sore back or joint, the bigger picture is whole body alignment and wellness. By reducing nervous-system interference, chiropractic care can support people experiencing a surprising range of concerns.
Acute Pain and Injury
A tweaked back, a stiff neck after sleeping wrong, a shoulder that hasn't felt right since a workout. Chiropractic care is highly effective for addressing new pain quickly and getting you back to feeling like yourself.
Chronic Pain
Pain that has been present for months or years often has a structural root that hasn't been addressed. Regular chiropractic care can reduce chronic pain in the back, hips, neck, and joints.
Headaches and Migraines
Chiropractic adjustments can reduce tension in the head, neck, and jaw at the source. Many patients see a meaningful decrease in both the frequency and severity of their headaches with regular visits.
Pregnancy Discomfort
Chiropractic care during pregnancy helps keep the pelvis balanced, reduces round ligament tension, and eases the back and hip discomfort that many expecting mothers accept as unavoidable.
Postural Issues and Tech Neck
Chiropractic care addresses the cumulative effects of working at a desk or looking down at our tech, restoring proper alignment and relieving the tension that builds up in the neck, shoulders, and upper back.
Poor Sleep
Spinal tension and nerve irritation can directly interfere with sleep quality. Many patients report sleeping noticeably better after beginning regular chiropractic care, often without making any other changes to their routine.
Chiropractic care supports the body's natural function and is not a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment. We'll always be honest about whether we're the right fit, and we're happy to work alongside your other providers.
We endeavor to create a safe space for you to pursue your best self through chiropractic care. This includes a gentle, supportive approach that listens to your concerns and provides a proactive care plan.
Meet the Sunrise Team
Dr. Julie Soluduka
Founder
Chiropractor
For Dr. Julie, chiropractic has never been just a profession, it’s been a way of life.
As a third-generation chiropractor, she grew up surrounded by chiropractic. Both her parents and both her grandfathers were chiropractors. From an early age she experienced firsthand the impact that holistic, natural healthcare can have on overall well-being. She grew up receiving the gentle Activator Method, with her mother serving as an instructor in the technique, and that foundation continues to shape the care she provides today.

Dr. Julie graduated from Life Chiropractic College West in 2019 and began her career in the Bay Area, where she practiced in a pregnancy- and pediatric-centered office. During that time, she developed a passion for creating a calm, supportive environment and helping patients feel cared for through every stage of life.
In 2022, Dr. Julie purchased a long-standing chiropractic practice in Santa Barbara and began its next chapter as Sunrise Chiropractic. She feels incredibly fortunate to now call Santa Barbara home and is grateful every day for the opportunity to care for this community.
Dr. Julie exclusively practices the Activator Method®, a gentle and precise approach to chiropractic care that aligns with her belief that healthcare should feel comfortable, approachable, and individualized. She has always valued holistic and alternative approaches to health and enjoys helping patients feel their best in a way that supports long-term wellness.
When she’s not in the office, you can find her snowboarding, cooking, playing piano, painting, or spending time with her two Maine Coons, Winter and Archer.
Dr. Chloé Jones
Chiropractor
Dr. Chloé grew up with an active lifestyle and lived in several states across the U.S. A Persian American raised in a family-oriented home, she helped care for relatives from a young age.
When her grandfather developed severe pain and couldn’t walk, she took him to a chiropractor and after just four visits, he was walking again. Seeing that difference firsthand inspired her to become a chiropractor herself.
She is certified in Activator Methods as well as the Webster Technique, and is especially passionate about supporting the pregnancy and pediatric population of Santa Barbara. She wants all her patients to be supported, informed, and confident in their health.
