Doctor.

Bodyworker.

Birth worker.

I’m Dr. Ihotu Ali — a chiropractor, bodyworker, and birth doula with 15+ years of experience working with the body. My approach brings clinical science together with skilled, intuitive hands-on care, looking beyond where it hurts to understand the patterns connecting your pain, movement, nervous system, and story.

Healing by Hand

The body rarely works in isolated parts —

and neither do I.

At Oshun, I combine chiropractic, fascia and myofascial work, abdominal and pelvic care, craniosacral therapy, movement, nervous-system care, and whole-person health education to understand what’s connected, what’s restricted, and what may help.

You don’t need to know which technique you need.

That’s my job.

Chiropractic   ·   Fascia + Bodywork   ·   Abdominal + Pelvic Care   ·   Craniosacral   ·   Movement   ·   Nutrition + Lifestyle

Because healthcare should make sense

— and you should understand

your own body.

WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?

Find your starting point.

▸ PELVIC + ABDOMINAL HEALTH

Periods, fertility, pelvic pain, abdominal tension, and whole-body patterns.

▸ NERVOUS SYSTEM + WHOLE-BODY CARE

Stress, burnout, regulation, and complex patterns that don’t fit neatly into one box.

▸ PREGNANCY + BIRTH

Support for a changing body, birth preparation, breech, and postpartum recovery.

▸ PAIN + MOBILITY

Headaches, TMJ, neck and back pain, hips, sacrum, and persistent pain.

WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

▸ Clinical Care

Hands-on, whole-person care in person. Minneapolis, MN + San Diego, CA.

▸ Virtual Body Mapping

Map your health story across systems and make a clearer plan — from anywhere.

▸ Education + Training

Workshops, speaking, and collaborative learning for healthcare and wellness practitioners.

  • Oshun (“oh-SHOON”) is an African spirit of the sweet waters. There are sweet water spirits in every culture. We welcome yours here.

  • We deserve care that heals broken hearts as well as broken bones. Our pain and illnesses are wide and varied, as should our medicines be, and we deserve options, informed choice, and affordable access to them all.

  • We try to imagine what U.S. health care would look like if it had developed evenly and fairly, acknowledging the influences of folk medicine, midwives, homeopaths, Indigenous healers, bonesetters and spiritual guides.
