About Dr. Brandon Kanoa Imada

Founder of Surf N Sport Chiropractic

Doctor of Chiropractic


Dr. Brandon Kanoa Imada is a performance-based chiropractor and holistic health practitioner committed to helping people align mind, body, and spirit so they can live well, move with purpose, and thrive—no matter where life takes them. His care empowers individuals to function as they were perfectly designed, so they can navigate life’s waves with greater ease, flow, and grace—and enjoy the ride with strength, resilience, and style.


Born and raised in Hawaiʻi, Dr. Imada carries the values, rhythm, and lifestyle of the islands with him in everything he does. He earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life Chiropractic College West, where he built a strong foundation in evidence-informed chiropractic care and holistic healing. He went on to complete a 3.5-year post-doctorate fellowship under Dr. Craig Buhler at the Buhler Athletic Injuries and Human Performance Clinic in Utah. There, he worked hands-on with elite athletes, including Olympic competitors, NBA and NFL professionals, and some of the top surfers in the World Surf League, gaining advanced expertise in injury recovery, performance enhancement, and functional optimization.


Through his private practice, Surf N Sport Chiropractic, Dr. Imada blends leading-edge techniques with a whole-body philosophy to help individuals heal deeply and perform at their highest potential. His services include Advanced Muscle Integration Technique (AMIT), a powerful method for identifying and correcting muscular imbalances; nasal specific technique, which supports cranial alignment and improved respiratory function; and functional movement protocols that restore proper movement patterns, strength, and mobility. He also integrates holistic lifestyle coaching, inspired by the CHEK Institute, to support lasting wellness on physical, mental, and emotional levels.


While Dr. Imada currently practices out of Sunset Therapy Clinic on the North Shore of Oʻahu, he actively works with clients across Hawaiʻi, Utah, and beyond, offering both in-person care and extended support through personalized coaching and healing programs. Whether you’re an athlete, a high performer, or someone simply seeking more energy, alignment, and vitality, his work is designed to support you in living with purpose and harmony.


Guided by the belief that the body is intelligent, the design is perfect, and healing happens when we remove interference and restore balance, Dr. Imada is passionate about helping others reconnect to their innate potential and move through life with ease and intention.
