About Dr. Nguyen
Dr. Franchesca Nguyen was born and raised in Fountain Valley, CA and knew at an early age that health and fitness was what she believed in.
When she was in third grade she injured her back in a Tae Kwon Do tournament. She was taken to a local Chiropractor who helped her get back in action to live an active life.

After this injury had healed, she continued with the maintenance and rehab treatment and earned her first degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do after five years.
