About Dr. Jeremiah Kloss — USMC Veteran Chiropractor in Half Moon Bay
Hi, I’m Dr. Jeremiah Kloss — a USMC veteran, Doctor of Chiropractic, and lifelong student of human performance. My path to opening Encourage Chiropractic here in Half Moon Bay (94019) has been anything but typical — and that’s what makes this place different.
I first fell in love with movement and physical health while serving as a Martial Arts Instructor in the United States Marine Corps. I trained hundreds of Marines, pushing both their bodies and minds to the edge, while learning how powerful positive reinforcement and intelligent training can be — especially in tough moments.
After earning my Bachelor’s in Kinesiology from Oregon State University – Cascades, I pursued chiropractic education at Palmer College of Chiropractic West, later transferring and graduating from Life Chiropractic College West in 2022. I became a licensed California chiropractor in April 2023.
In July 2023, I opened Encourage Chiropractic with one goal:
To offer chiropractic care in Half Moon Bay that actually teaches people how to move better, heal faster, and take control of their long-term health.
Here’s what that looks like:
45-minute appointments that include adjustments, soft tissue work, strength training, and real education
A veteran-owned, patient-first clinic built on encouragement, empathy, and functional progress
Care that blends modern sports rehab, neuro-muscular retraining, and traditional chiropractic methods
When I’m not working with patients, I’m training, studying, or walking the beach with my wife Brittney and our dogs — doing my best to live the same values I encourage in others.

My Mission & Approach to Chiropractic in Half Moon Bay
As a United States Marine, former Marine Corps Martial Arts Instructor, and lifelong movement specialist, I fell in love early with exploring the physical and mental limits of the human body. I discovered that the most powerful catalyst for growth — whether you’re a new recruit or a seasoned athlete — is often encouragement in the face of adversity.
This experience training Marines from across the U.S. led me to pursue studies in:
Exercise Physiology
Sport Psychology
Advanced Kinesiology
Anatomy and Neurology
Rehabilitation and Injury Prevention
After earning my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from Oregon State University – Cascades in 2017, I entered chiropractic school, attending Palmer West for 3 years before transferring to Life Chiropractic College West in Hayward, CA. I graduated in December 2022 and received my California Chiropractor’s License on April 20, 2023.
“Encourage Chiropractic” officially opened its doors in Half Moon Bay on July 1, 2023, offering not just care — but coaching, clarity, and long-term confidence in your body’s ability to heal.
Our companion program, Encourage Fitness, launched in January 2025, expanding our mission to include personalized strength training and functional fitness.
Today, I offer a unique fusion of:
Veteran-led chiropractic care
Sports rehab in Half Moon Bay
Strength training programs built for real-world demands
Movement reprogramming and soft tissue therapy
Evidence-based solutions that address root causes, not just symptoms
I see every adjustment as a short-term tool — but true healing happens when we retrain how you move, breathe, and recover.
Whether you’re dealing with back pain, recovering from an injury, or simply trying to feel more alive in your body — my mission is to teach you how to move better and live pain-free using everything I’ve learned
If you're not yet consistent on your own, that's okay — schedule a visit, and let’s build your personalized plan together.
