I came in today for the new patient special 59$ for an adjustment and 30 minute massage. I've been to a chiropractor before and have never had to pay up front, I thought it was weird and so did the lady signing in at the same time as me, she even commented on that not being the usual. While in my "consultation" I let them know I was having some numbness in my right outer thigh. He tore a piece of tissue up, ran it down my thigh and asked me to tell him if I felt it or not. I of course, did not. He then pushed on my legs while I was laying down. I was then told that due to my "lack of strength" in my right leg and my numbness I could not receive a adjustment without having an MRI done first. I accepted that, and asked if I could have my money back since I did not receive an adjustment and had not received the massage yet. I was told No. I would not be receiving a refund but I could still get my massage. I essentially paid $60 for a 30 minute fully clothed massage that wasn't at all like the previous reviews depected it to be. There was no dim lit room with privacy, quietness, and relaxation. It was 4 tables in a big room. Lights on. No door. I could hear kids crying in the front office down the hall and could not relax because all I could think about was if those crying kids were okay. I have a 2 year old of my own and paid a babysitter so I could go here and try to get some relief and relaxation. I am in no way upset at the children but I did expect something similar to the previous reviews.

The only positive thing was the massage therapist, she seemed to genuinely care. Won't be coming back here seeing as I don't have $900 for an MRI and opted for this place because of the low price on new patients. I'm curious if anyone else got the same response on the "new...

Practicing without license! Be aware!

Gabriel, who attempted to do my massage today, told me that he DOES NOT have a massage therapist license! What!???

I never considered such a possibility, that’s why I wasn’t concerned about few unusual things in the beginning. He did not use covers properly, his touch was wired. Then he let me know, that he now will apply more pressure. I’m very pain tolerant, and I would allow to feel pain for the therapeutic purpose. But his technique was VERY confusing and painful. I love receive massages and have been attending massage school myself I asked Gabriel what technique he is doing. His answer was uneducated. So I asked Gabriel what school did he went to get his license. And then I learned that Gabriel doesn’t have a license! More of that he never went to massage school! He said that he received his training from the colleague here at this office!!!!! What?!

At least now it’s all made sense! He had NO IDEA what he was doing.

Be aware! Inexperienced person can get injured. As a matter of fact 3 hours after, my back still hurts.

I might consider taking...

I’ve been to this clinic before back in 2018 after a car accident injury. I was very impressed with the location, it’s very clean and the staff is fantastic. The treatments helped with my recovery. Today, I was a walk-in and the front desk staff were great about getting me in on such short notice. I messed my whole body up by exercising too strenuously, but mostly my neck and sciatica were bothering me today. I spent a while there and was very well taken care of. I do feel a bit better and the chiropractor was very gentle since I’m a bit of a nervous Nelly. The massage therapist pinpointed right away what needed work the most (magic hands!) and I’m glad I opted to do that before the adjustment. All-in-all, this is a...
