Dr. Stephanie Libs DC's Profile

Dr. Stephanie Libs DC Related Seminars and Products

Cafe of Life


Dr. Stephanie Libs, DC, CACCP is a pediatric and perinatal chiropractor in San Diego and has been in practice since 2013. As a student at Life Chiropractic College West, she heard Jeanne Ohm speak on stage about the power behind perinatal and pediatric chiropractic care, and she was immediately hooked. She completed the ICPA courses and started her practice in San Diego, her hometown.

She married her husband Dean, who is a chiro kid, and they have two children, Aubree and Roland. Aubree was a planned homebirth that ended in a hospital transfer, which led to an array of challenges. Those challenges sparked a passion for providing better care for pregnant mothers and babies. Two years later, Steph was pregnant with Roland who was born beautifully at home into the hands of her husband. Her hunger for knowledge propelled her to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant to bring the lactation and pediatric chiropractic worlds together.

Her practice has grown to support thousands of families in a subluxation-based, open-concept, communal style with several associates. Her midwife opened a birth center right next door, so there is ample collaboration for adjusting pregnant women in labor and newborns right after birth. Her office hosts numerous workshops and classes and hosts a breastfeeding support group every week with multiple holistic breastfeeding professionals. She loves all things birth and babies and is so excited to bring that love to the ICPA.
