Meet the Staff of O’Hara Chiropractic
Ella | Chiropractic Assistant
My name is Ella Washburn and I am the newest member of O’Hara chiropractic! I moved to Santa Barbara 2.5 years ago from Northern California and am currently a student at Santa Barbara City College majoring in child development. My favorite things to do are travel, take care of my 2 cats Doja & Rico, and spend time with my loved ones.
I was introduced to this office by my good friend who is a patient of Dr. O’Hara’s. I attended Dr. Lori’s monthly workshop and instantly wanted to learn more. Working in this office, I have already learned so much about chiropractic and how much of a positive impact it has on people’s lives in many ways. I have developed a new love for taking care of not only myself, but helping everyone achieve the main goal of optimal health. I feel extremely grateful to be surrounded by the best chiropractors, staff, and the best patients! I am excited to continue learning and growing with O’Hara Chiropractic.
Courtney Dugan | Chiropractic Assistant

Ericka Nava Jarquin | Chiropractic Assistant
Hello, my name is Ericka Nava Jarquin. I live in Santa Barbara with my children and husband. I enjoy morning walks by the beach and spending time with my family. I worked as a CNA and a caregiver for 11 years. I’m currently working toward my Medical Administrative Assistant Associate’s Degree, which I will finish in a few months. My family and I have been Dr. O’Hara’s patients for about years. I’m looking forward to getting to know every single one of you.
Alondra Rios | Chiropractic Assistant
Hello! My name is Alondra Rios, born and raised in sunny Santa Barbara. I love going on Cabrillo Blvd and setting up a hammock on the palm trees in front of the beach. If you see me there, please say “Hi!”.
I have been part of my mother’s daycare since I was born. I had the opportunity to grow alongside people from all walks of life as a child. One thing being in a daycare has taught me is to appreciate every single moment and to carry myself with grace and compassion.
I am incredibly excited and grateful to be part of a team that focuses on healing our community.
Maxi Petrick | Massage Therapist
I grew up in Germany, where I earned my degree in physical therapy and developed a deep appreciation for anatomy, movement, and hands-on care. After moving to Santa Barbara, I felt inspired by the community’s holistic outlook on health and began transitioning into massage therapy.
My work blends therapeutic knowledge with a calming, personalized approach, and includes modalities such as deep tissue massage, craniosacral therapy, lymphatic drainage, and prenatal massage. By combining attentive depth with a calm, grounded pace, my goal is to support the body’s natural ability to heal while providing meaningful, lasting relief.
We’d love to meet you and answer your questions. Give us a call or contact us today!
