Meet Dr. John Sutanto

My mission to eliminate chronic pain begins on the mat.

In 1970’s, as a competitive body builder and martial artist a severe injury occurred during the competitive Judo match left me completely sidelined. After trying various routes, it was an integrated, non surgical approach to healing that finally brought me back to full health and inspired my four decades of medical career.

I dedicated decades to studying the human body. Earning a bachelor degree in nutrition, a master degree of science in advanced clinical practice and the doctorate degree in Chiropractic. Over the past decade I have proudly served the Gallup New Mexico community, helping thousands of patients find answers when everything else has failed.

Patient Testimonials

Brittany S.

"I went in feeling tight and and tense and walked out feeling instant relief. I went in thinking I would just get an alignment instead I got acupuncture for the first time had trigger point release stretching and an alignment! I had never had acupuncture and was willing to try it and am I glad I did! This place is wonderful I already have my follow up appointment made."

Lisa Y

"Dr. Sutanto is great. He combines chiropractic with acupuncture. The acupuncture assists the muscles in relaxing so that the chiropractic is a little easier and it holds. At least that is the way it feels to me. There are times he cannot get certain parts of the spine to release, but that tells me that I need to get a massage or stretch more before going in. All in all, a great experience."

David West

“I had been dealing with constant lower back pain for months and nothing seemed to help. After my first visit with Dr. Sutanto, I felt a huge difference. He explained everything clearly and combined an adjustment with muscle therapy and dry needling. I walked out feeling lighter, more mobile, and finally hopeful. I’m already looking forward to my next session!”

Jenny Rose

“My neck and shoulder pain was affecting my sleep and daily routine. A friend recommended Sutanto Chiropractic and I’m so glad I went. Dr. Sutanto really takes his time to listen and treated me with a mix of adjustment, stretching, and physiotherapy. I felt immediate relief and even noticed improved range of motion the same day. The care here is outstanding!”
