REBECA NUNEZ-MENDEZ, CMT
MASSAGE THERAPIST
My name is Rebeca and I am a Massage Therapist at Gamble Chiropractic. I have been here for 3 years. My specialties are Swedish Massage (a calming, relaxing massage with a nice light therapeutic touch). Great for first-timers.
As light as I can go, I also perform a deep tissue massage which is with a firmer therapeutic touch to reduce any tightness, soreness and tension in the muscles.
I like to incorporate my light to medium touch to deep pressure massage and with some trigger points, depending on my client’s issues. Combining these different techniques for a relaxing, yet effective massage in relieving tight muscles from everyday use or injuries from overuse.
In my free time, I like to catch up on my adjustments and massages as well.

KERRY ANDERSON
HR & COMPLIANCE OFFICER
I was raised in Washington State and moved to the Coachella Valley nearly 20 years ago. I have been in administration for over 40 years and joined Gamble Chiropractic in 2012.
It has been a pleasure working with all of the staff at Gamble Chiropractic and seeing the changes we are making in the lives of our patients. I have witnessed over and over again the positive life changes that happen to a chiropractic patient. When someone who can barely walk into the office due to excessive pain levels, can walk out after completing their treatment plan with a smile on their face saying “I’m going golfing”, it is more than gratifying to say the least. I have witnessed these changes in all ages of chiropractic patients from newborn babies to the elderly. I believe chiropractic is not only a form of pain relief, but also an important part of a healthy lifestyle.
In my free time, I enjoy riding a Harley with my partner, working out and travelling.
