Chiropractors in Novato

“Dr. Christman is top notch! He and his staff are very friendly and welcoming to new clients. The location is great in down town Novato with a parking lot too. I've been going to get work on my back done and in a few weeks I've been noticing a difference. The care he provides and the pointers on how to move around and self care are very helpful too. I would recommend this location to anyone who needs an adjustment or is looking for some relief from discomfort that they just can't figure out.“

“On my first visit to Dr. Paul's office, I talked about my ongoing pain and numbness on my whole left side. I had symptoms going on since 2016. On my first reflex test with Dr. Paul, I could feel how different the muscle/nerve response was compared to my right side. I had lost 90% of my grip on my left hand, barely felt my left leg, and had unbearable pain for someone my age (27). I found Dr. Paul through a referral and I am amazed by what I could accomplish thus far. He recommended a corrective care program that would cover 90 days (3 times per week) with a reasonable discount which really helped me since I needed more visits because of my situation. This program included re-exams, re-X-rays, and home care routine exercises with some home kits provided by his clinic. I learned with Dr. Paul that soft tissue and nerves heal slowly, therefore patience is necessary to see results. So as you can see in the images attached, during these 3 months I've made real progress, drinking more water, stretching, and going to my therapy with Dr. Paul. I've let these symptoms take over for so long that my body is slowly recovering only now and I will continue regular care with Dr. Paul until my frequency is reduced to once a month. The tipping point was when the pain started spreading to my right upper back and going to reach my right arm, and I am right-handed. My symptoms were these: Numbness and heaviness on the left arm and leg, head, left buttock, and testicle, difficulty breathing, sleeping and exercising or working, zero motivation to complete tasks, 24h stabbing pain in my back near the spine, burning on my hands and dropping objects, unable to hold objects for over 30 seconds on my left hand, neck pain, heaviness on chest and pain chewing food on my left side.Dr. Paul also explained that shifts in our spine, incorrect posture, and degeneration of disks, cut down the communication (flow of energy) with the organs, slowly causing disease and failure. I still have a lot of work to do and I'm glad it wasn't too late for me.I'd also like to remind you that it's still important to get extra exams done and really get to the bottom of what you're feeling. What I can say is that chiropractic help was fundamental for my symptoms to start going away and finally be able to return activities to moderate levels. I bartend and wait tables, so I am always on the move, getting those regular adjustments also make a huge difference.Today, I feel like I went from 0% to at least 80% in general in these 3 months and I am feeling a lot better, and walking straight, which also makes me feel taller and people definitely notice my new level of confidence by the way I carry myself.Needless to say, I renewed care with Dr. Paul for another shorter-term plan after the corrective care, which will allow me to reduce visits little by little as I'm recovering.“

“Dr Brenda is fabulous. I have been going to her for years. She is professional, kind and a genius at dealing the myriad of my physical issues. I have arthritis, back and neck degeneration as well as shoulder issues. She keeps me going. I would recommend her at 10 stars plus.“

“I have been going to Whittlesy Natural Health for 13 years now, and I don't know how I would have functioned without the care of Dr. Whittlesy! I have had back problems for years, which has caused lots of pain and anguish. After treatment with Whittlesy Natural Health I now have my quality of life back!Thank you Dr. Whittlesy!“

“Dr. Buzbuzian is a treasure. He really customizes his treatment and is a great educator about exercises you can do to correct the underlying muscular skeletal dynamics. None of that cookie cutter chiropractic nonsense (you know that sequence/routine they do, regardless of diagnosis). I do the exercises he gave me and I feel like a new person.He has such a kind and upbeat disposition. He is so personable and warm. And so is Jack at the front desk. All around a great experience. I am so grateful to have found him.“

“Patrick is the best and he doesn't insist that you come back for another visit unless it is absolutely necessary. His knowledge of what bone should be where is incredible. I like his location as there are many places to ruin my diet after getting treatment.“

“I was dealing with major back pain, arm and leg numbness, and frequent injuries that are now gone because of my treatments with Dr. Paul. I now have more stamina and strength in doing the things I love because of the time and effort put in by Dr. Paul and his staff to correct my posture and overall improve my health. They are always kind and courteous and take really great care of their patients. A lot of my family members and friends also attend and have had great experiences as well.“

“I've been looking for a new Chiropractor since mine left Marin, and Yelp reviews helped me find this office. Dr. Eckhardt and his staff are very warm and inviting.The office is immaculate, and they practice Covid safety protocols, which helped me feel very comfortable. The adjustment I had was incredibly gentle and helped immediately. I'll go back once a week for a few weeks, and we will reevaluate after those treatments.“

“Dr. Brenda and her staff are kind, patient, efficient, and professional. The packages are a great value, and the quality of care & treatment is exceptional. I have regained function and mobility in my back that I never thought was possible. Best chiropractic experience I’ve had.“

“DeSalvo Chiropractic is excellent, from the Dr’s to the assistants and the office. Every one is friendly knowledgeable and concerned for your health. Also they are advanced in all their equipment as well as their approach.“

“Looking for a body worker/chiropractor/craniosacral therapist in Marin? Look no further....Caralina Kvalstad is a miraculous body worker and I wanted to share her name. I was in a bad car accident in 1997 and have had problems with my neck, shoulder and back ever since. Over the years I've seen dozens of chiropractors, massage therapists, PTs and body workers. I've tried Rolfing, foam rollers, MELT method & yoga. You name it, I've probably tried.But it wasn't until I found Caralina that I've started to see real progress. Before giving me an adjustment she gives me about a 30+ minute deep tissue massage - where she actually digs (I mean that!) into the places I've only wished others would go, to reach the injured tissues that are causing my pain and need the most healing. Then after the adjustment she continues with the deep tissue work. This is a woman who knows what she's doing.... so if you need body work - OF ANY KIND - go see Caralina.“

“Margaret is MarGREAT! Very kind and attentive to whatever may be ailing you. Highly recommend visiting her for chiropractic needs. Thanks for everything!“

“I have been receiving treatment for around a month. I suffer from chronic migraines. In this short amount of time, thanks to Dr. Monica & the Lord above, I am off of my daily migraine medication in which I have been on for 8 years. I also have bad acid reflux. Dr. Monica has me on sort of gut healing regimen and I am very hopeful it will work. I trust Dr. Monica more than I ever have a doctor. I have always been sort of leery of doctors and their intentions.However, both Dr. Monica and Karen are hilarious, easy to talk to, and personable individuals. I have no doubt that Dr. Monica knows exactly what she’s doing. I was amazed at the x-ray and the feedback she sat down and gave me. She wasn’t in a rush like typical doctors. She sat down and analyzed everything with me. She’s not one of those doctors that schedule appointments so close together that you have no time to talk to them. I never feel rushed or just “like another patient.” I know Dr. Monica cares about me, my health, and my overall well being. I will also say she is not like a typical chiropractor. She’s not going to bend and twist you like a pretzel like most. She’s very gentle. There’s so much knowledge and precision with her adjustments.Besides all of that, the center is SO COOL. Everything is neat, clean, and has character. If you’re hesitant to schedule an appointment, just call. You will be impressed.“
