I am looking for a chiropractor to treat my lower back, but I'm not sure where to go. I would really appreciate any rec. for a great dr. I live in Hayward, but travel to Fremont for work, so anywhere in between is fine. Thank you

What can I do next?

I go to Dr. Gary Wong at Sunrise Chiropractic in Fremont. He is one of the best. There is no pressure to have to come week after week for the rest of your life, like some practices. Rather, his goal is to get well so you can stop coming to his practice.

Whatever you do, don't go to one that only does adjustments. I went to one like that for years. When I'd go in, he'd have me stand on a scale that measured "balance of my body." Then he'd used a vibrator like thing or roller over my back. Then he'd do a couple of adjustments. He'd always tell me I needed to get a massage because it was hard to adjust me. Then I discovered another chiropractor that does body work beforehand. With this doctor's office you go in, they do heat packs, then you get body work from one of his therapists (for about 15-20 minutes), with focus on the area you need work on. Only then does the doctor adjust you. My son went to them with he was diagnosed with "overwork" syndrome of his knee, and after the pediatrician thought he'd need surgery on his knee the chiro guys did a bunch of deep tissue work on his thigh muscles and hamstrings (every day for 5 days) and he was completely better. I sent my husband to this office when the other chiro wasn't available (the one that didn't do tissue work), and it turned out he hadn't thrown out his back (like he was always led to believe), but his hamstrings were tight and knotted and accordingly were pulling at his lower back. After two visits for deep tissue work, he was perfectly fine (where in the past it would be weeks of 3-times a week visits). So before you go anywhere, ask what they do when you go in and chose carefully.

Hi A.,
I am a chiropractor in Oakland, and whenever I have a patient that needs a chiropractor in Hayward I send them to the Life Chiropractic College West Health Center there in Hayward. Life West is the best chiropractic school in the country, and their senior interns help patients as they finish up their schooling. The care is excellent, and the prices affordable. You can call ###-###-#### to schedule an appointment. They will take great care of you! And please let them know that I sent you. :)

Take care,

I also have buldging discs in my neck and suffered immensely until I started going to an upper cervical spine chiropractor. His name is Dr. Thomas Forest he is in Pleasanton. He's worth the drive. He is not a typical chiropractor and does extensive testing on you before anything. Check out his website to see what an exam entails. He was the only person to give me relief. He has been in practice for 30 years and has been teaching for the past 20. Here is his website.

I've had great success with Chiropractic and my lower back. There used to be quite a number of times where I was in pain and pretty limited in what I could do. That hasn't happened since I've seen a Chiropractor. My Chiropractor is Dr. Steven Forest.

Hi A.,

Don't know if you found a chiropractor yet but if not, I'd be happy to see you. I'm located in Danville but I do see patients by appointment only on Saturdays if that works.

(my business is on this website too)

Hope to talk to you soon,
B. ###-###-####
