Dr. Dawn is amazing. After about five visits, my frozen shoulder is so much better. I had frozen shoulder before in my left arm and it took almost 18 months to finally feel relief. This time, after a year of not being able to sleep pan free, raise my arm or even do something like child's pose, I can again. Acupuncture and ART are not for the faint of heart, but the results are undeniable. If you are dealing with shoulder pain or mobility issues, do not wait. Just go see Dr. Dawn. read more

Dawn has treated all six in our family. That says it all. We are so thankful and grateful for her team as we have lived here many years with good health. read more

The office staff are wonderful and kind :). I started coming here a few weeks ago for neck/back pain. I also have TMJ, muscle tension dysphonia, and dysphagia. I am very happy with Dr. Kelly for ART and chiropractic care and can see a difference. After about 3 sessions, my migraines are better and I plan on continuing to see him. I saw Dr. Dawn for acupuncture and ART for the first time today. I noticed 2 other reviews talking about how painful it can be. I was surprised there were not more. I was not expecting to be in so much pain with the acupuncture. I wish I did not do the ART after that because I think I had already reached my pain tolerance haha. The ART was too much for me. I respect Dr. Dawn as a practitioner and I'm sure she is very knowledgeable, but I had a hard time adjusting to the intense and fast-paced ART. I feel a lot better after taking some tylenol and taking some time to rest, but I don't think I can go through that again with how sensitive my neck is. read more

Dr. Dawn and her team saved the day for me. I developed severe overuse damage to my right leg while training for a marathon. It progressed to the point where I couldn't run more than a mile and withonly two months to the race. Dr. Dawn used a combination of therapies including ART and dry needle to help me recover just in time. I recently completed the event with no issues or restrictions. There's no way that I could have recovered in time on my own. Thank you Dr. Dawn et al.!!! read more

New office, New environment. Dr Dawn is solo-practice now and any negative review you read from 3+ years ago is bogus. Today I had an appt at 2pm - at 1:20 they called and told me Dr D was running late. Came at 2:15 and here I am in a room waiting for treatment. Dr Dawn and her staff value your time as much as theirs. And she is the absolute best at working with active people and their active injuries. You won't see more thorough history and note taking any where. Dr Dawn wants to help every patient and it shows. If you have a nagging foot/ankle/knee/shoulder/neck/you name it, she can help. Chiropractic, Active Resistance Therapy, Acupuncture, and solid physiologic and foundational movement coaching - all right here. read more

Dr. Liu is the best for chronic pain! She literally gave me my life back. I had chronic back and neck pain for 9 months, I saw 4 different chiropractors, 3 PTs, and my doctor, and Dr. Liu is the only one who could do anything about it. Now after 3 months of seeing her, I can finally exercise again and I'm hardly ever in pain anymore. Her goal is also to get you healed as quickly as possible, and I think if she was the first person I saw she would have been able to fix me in a few sessions. ART is also extremely painful but so worth it. I don't have a very high pain tolerance, and there have been times where I'm screaming from the pain, but you really get used to it after a few sessions and it's better as your body heals. Plus I don't mind the pain because I always walk out feeling better than when I walked in. Just try a session and you'll be a believer! I recommend her to everyone! The only other thing to know is there have been a couple of times when my appointment times have gotten mixed up, but they always confirm your appointment so you'll know in advance if that happens. They're also super apologetic if that does happen and do everything they can to fix the situation. This is still a 5 star review though because that doesn't change the fact that Dr. Liu has literally worked a miracle on my back!! read more

Laurie Weber is an exceptionally skilled massage therapist. She takes the time during first session to learn your needs and expectations to create a massage experience that is therapeutic relaxing and pain-relieving. Her sessions are as chatty or as quiet as you prefer, and she checks in to make sure she's providing you the right amount of pressure. I cannot say enough about how fantastically skilled she is -- if you book with her once, you'll be back. read more

I have good news and bad news! (should be a 2-star) :( Good News: Both Dawn and Anthony are excellent therapists. They are highly competent and their treatments are effective with quick results. Bad News: The office (and management) is horribly inefficient. I show on time for every appointment yet still wait 15 - 30 minutes before I am seen. I drive a fair distance to the office, in traffic, and take time away from my business to do so. Yet, I am still charged for a full 1 hour treatment even thought I am only seen for 30-40 minutes. Not a great value. They seem to be good about getting the patients out of the office on time, so why the long wait times to be seen? To make things worse, the receptionist (Linda, Laura?) has virtually nothing so say upon arrival other than, "Your appointment is at 9:00? Ok, that will be $79 dollars." There are no kind welcomes, no hospitality, no info is offered, no questions, no guidance. And she is oblivious to the long wait times or simply just ignores the problem. Unfortunately, I will be forced to find a therapy center closer to my home as I can not afford the additional costs of travel time and loss of work. The value simply does not pencil out. If and when Dawn hires a competent office manager, I am open to returning. Because I like Dawn and Anthony, they get 3 stars, but I think 2 is more appropriate. Mark read more

Sometimes you have to fall in order to learn how to get back up right ?! Dr. Dawn sure knows how to work her magic !!! I've undergone ART (Active Release Technique) before, but from a different practitioner. I was already a believer of the practice since it worked for me in the past. 'ART' gave me hope and confidence to start running again. My left knee has been bothering me 'on and off' for the last year and a half or so. With all the therapy work that I've gone through, I believe both 'ART' and biomechanical rehabilitation have helped the BEST. I met Dr. Dawn through my running group. She offered a 'free' consultation and I was not pressured to sign-up with her before, during, or after. She left it all up to me to decide and commit on my own time and convenience. Since my only concern was the cost and my insurance can only cover so much, I had to seriously decide on which practitioner would be the best fit for me (both short and long term). After my initial consultation, I must say my knee hasn't felt this pain-free (knock on wood) in awhiiiiile ! Uphills/downhills used to be a problem, but lately it hasn't been bothering me. Yay ! The uncomfortable sharp pain seemed to magically disappear. How could that be after just one session ? She worked on my leg muscles emphasizing on my hamstrings and areas of tightness. It sure was painful and at times I thought I'd end up with bruises from all the applied pressure. A few rotations here and there and she wanted to see me run before and after to feel the difference. She suggested a few tweaks in my form and landing as well. Wow ! What a difference ! Running felt almost effortless. That's a PLUS, especially for long distance runners such as myself. Dr. Dawn also has a SD Meetup group that consists of group runs and meetings regarding sports injury prevention and proper running techniques. Her practice is close to home and meetups are sometimes scheduled in and around my area as well. Dr. Dawn really seems to care about her work and the well-being of her clients. She has educated me and continues to do so. I feel confident that her expertise and guidance will help me through a pain-free active lifestyle. Dr. Dawn also specializes in chiropractic, acupuncture, and various sports injuries. Check her website and make an appointment. Highly recommend her ! read more

Dr. Liu is an amazing chiropractor/practitioner of A.R.T. I had never been to a chiro before, or heard of A.R.T., and I was nervous, but my primary care doctor recommended Dr. Liu. She made an amazing difference with the sciatica that I was experiencing. Within 4 sessions my sciatica was gone (and has not returned in ~6 months), which was absolutely amazing to me. She listened to my history, and then made me do various stretches and easily knew which muscles to address. I think the A.R.T. helped much more than any "cracking". Our visits were extremely effective. As mentioned in other reviews, the office management is not the best. One receptionist is cool and aloof, and did not follow up after promising to look up my insurance information. However, the new receptionist is much better, friendly and helpful. read more

Dr. Dawn fixed my lower back and sciatica problems when conventional medicine didn't even come close to helping me.

I have been to Dr. Dawn for several sessions over the years without incident. I previously thought of her as competent and compassionate. However, my last appointment with her several months ago resulted in severe pain to my hip. I contacted her office twice to talk it over with her and to see what she would recommend I do. I left detailed messages about the issue with her office staff and did not receive any call back from her. Even if I give Dr. Dawn the benefit of the doubt and assume she did not get the messages, she did not call me to find put why I abruptly stopped going for treatment. Pretty disappointing and very unprofessional. read more

Dr. Dan Liu is an amazing chiropractor and highly knowledgeable in her field. I'm an allopathic doctor (MD) in San Diego and look at chiropractic medicine as complementary to my field of practice. Dr. Liu is an expert in sports-related injuries and has helped me over several years in rehabilitating Achilles tendinitis, IT band syndrome, sciatic nerve pain, and some occupational-related strains (back pain, shoulder pains, etc). She's done chiropractic manipulation, ART (the best!), and did acupuncture with unbelievable recovery in few visits. Her knowledge base is deep; she knows her anatomy like my professors from medical school. Highly recommend her! read more

I live a very active lifestyle, and practice a lot of self-care to prevent injuries (foam rolling/stretching). I was extremely surprised and perplexed to find myself having acute back pain, which I thought was a dislocated rib. I had very limited range of motion in my torso, and I was walking around like a robot. I was in mercy to my pain, and I made a same day appointment with Dr. Liu and told her about my symptoms. After a very thorough assessment, she was quickly able to pin point what was going on. My rib was completely in tact, but my psoas muscle was completely inflamed. She did some body work on my abdominal muscles (A.R.T.), and I immediately felt 40-50% less pain. I made an appointment 2 days later, and by that time my pain decreased to 70%. After my 2nd appointment of A.R.T. with Dr. Liu, my pain was down to 90%! She is so beyond educated and experienced, I was very impressed. I will see her for a few more appointments, then add in her recommendations to my self-care routine. My insurance doesn't cover treatments out of my network, so I paid out of pocket. It can get expensive that way, but I really feel like what you get from every visit is beyond worth the out of pocket cost. If you have ANY pain, make an appointment with Dr. Liu, I had amazing results with her, and I'm sure you will also. read more

Made an appointment on April 20th because they were chiropractic providers though my insurance company the person booking the appointment tried to sell me additional services which I wasn't interested in first of all because "active release technique " or ART has not been scientifically shown to have any medical benefits. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Release_Technique but not only that, I just wanted Chiropractic services that they should be providing. On April 23rd , 3 hours before my appointment someone from the office calls me and tells me I can't go there just for Chiropractic and told me I have to pay out of pocket above my insurance copay because it's a package deal. I told her I didn't want it again and she said there was no choice so after rearranging my day to see this doctor I had to cancel my appointment. I really couldn't believe what just happened, so I called back and asked if the doctor Anna would call me back. She finally did later that day and apologized for canceling my appointment in such short notice but then proceeded to say "if you're not interested in ART then maybe you should look for another provider" I would be real weary about seeing Dr. Liu and Dr. Anna , they don't seem to care about the well being of people at all .. they just care about how much money they can milk out of their clients. I work and live in Solana Beach and will definitely start spreading the word about their unethical business practices as well as make a complaint to the insurance company that lists them as a provider and the The Board of Chiropractic Examiners. read more

I've spent years going to traditional western medicine doctors trying to treat my health problems, and not one has been able to provide me with the care and treatment plan that Action Performance Center has. Instead of just treating the symptoms, Dr. Dawn finds the root of the problem and treats it accordingly. I no longer live in chronic pain; Dr. Dawn gave me my life back. read more

Anna Phillips is good and knowledgeable. She deserves 5-stars. The billing or accounting staff deserves No-stars! We were OVER CHARGED FOR SERVICES and never got a reimbursement. Finally got an itemized statement of charges and they were off by over $200. Contacted the office multiple times and they did not return calls or make any attempt to reconcile the billing statement. We are working with Aetna filing a formal complaint to recover the money! CONCLUSION: Make sure you are aware of all charges your insurance will pay as well as any out of pocket expenses and confirm your bills to insure you are not billed for services you did not receive! read more

I've been in treatment for frozen shoulder with Dr. Dawn for 3 weeks and am feeling so much better, I just have to Yelp about it. I started having pain in my left upper arm in July 2010 and thought it was from working out, so I took a break to heal up. The pain got worse despite the rest and I went to my primary care doc, who diagnosed me with a shoulder impingement & said nothing could really be done about it except to take anti-imflammatories for the pain. I tried massage, other chiropractors and physical therapy with my HMO, but was still in near constant pain and thinking that I would never get better. I found Action Chiropractic after doing an Internet search for shoulder impingement treatment and made an appointment. The office staff was very pleasant to deal with and got me in quickly. Dr. Dawn took an extensive history and studied the range of motion I had in my left arm from many different angles and positions. She diagnosed me with adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) and told me about A.R.T. (active release technique) therapy. She was honest and said the treatment would be very painful, but that my range of motion would be restored and I would be pain free within about 10 sessions. She was NOT kidding about the painful treatment! At some points, it hurts so badly, I'm not sure if I can stand anymore. She really knows what she's doing though, and does all she can to make it easier and talk me through the pain. I noticed a difference after the very first session, and now after 4 sessions, there has been a HUGE improvement in both my range of motion and pain level. I am no longer in constant pain, and am able to exercise again and sleep through the night. I don't have total range of motion back yet, but I'm getting there quickly under Dr. Dawn's care. Give her a try if you're having chronic pain and haven't gotten any relief from other techniques. read more

Went to Dr. Liu for some chiropractic work after I was in a hit and run accident where I got rear ended. After just a few sessions, I am feeling hugely better. Not only has she been working on the whiplash from the accident, but she has also loosened up and "cleared up" tension that's been around for as long as I can remember. Don't let her small size fool you. She is a powerhouse and knows what she's doing! Get to her fast if you want relief from what ails you structurally. read more

If you have back pain, look no further Last year I was in so much pain it was maddening. I could go to work and get through my day but all I wanted to do was get home and lie down. I injured myself at the gym, I literally contemplated getting a steroid injection to give me relief. My husband had gone to Dr. Anna earlier in the year and swore by her. I put off going to her for a month. Finally, I had a really bad weekend with the back pain and I finally called and made an appointment. First off, she gave me immediate relief that would last an hour or two and it just came right back. I committed to going at least twice a week. Slowly, within three months, the pain completely resolved. I was afraid I was going to need surgery but she helped me immensely. She fixed me! It's a different type of therapy, active release therapy. It worked for me If you are reading this, I know how you feel. Just make the call, you will not believe how much relief you will get here. read more

I went to Action Performance Care because my upper glute area was locked up and I'd heard that A.R.T treatment would be helpful. I saw Dr. Cipperoni, who was nice, professional and confident. The treatment consisted of him applying pressure to the most painful part of my upper hip area and helping me move my leg in different repetitive motions. It was extremely painful, which worried me, but I hoped that the treatment would shift something and relieve my pain later. I have now spent two days in serious pain and can barely move or sleep without sharp pain in my hip area. This is much worse pain that what I went in with... Not sure when this pain will subside, but not likely for a few days. If the first rule of medicine is 'first do no harm', that rule was broken badly. Be careful with this treatment. If it hurts much at all, ask them to stop. read more

Dr. Cipperoni is a class act and a heck of an adjuster. He has always been able to help me diagnose whatever condition that was going on with me at the time (I'm a high end athlete, injuries so occur!). I never felt like he tried to scare me in to long term plans and always was reassuring and encouraging with whatever was going on with me. Thanks doc! read more

Dr Dawn has been such a relief for many different areas of my body. I'm a dentist which means I suffer from multiple ergonomic issues in my neck, hands, and back. She has rehabilitated me back to a pain free workday. I also train JiuJitsu and other martial arts so I present her with a wide variance of strains and aches-all of which she has an answer for. I can't recommend her enough!! read more

Dr. Liu is amazing. I have been seeing her twice per week for only three weeks now and I already feel so much better, it's shocking! I used to run distance with no problem, then started developing a pain in my lower back so bad that I had to stop running at less than one mile. It was extremely frustrating and discouraging. I'm already back to almost 3 miles per day and am excited to keep pressing on to get back to where I was before! She is so thorough and spends so much time with you. She really cares about you and wants to help you get better. We've spent time running and even discussing nutrition. If you visit her regularly, implement the running form recommendations she makes and foam roll on your own time, it works! read more

I can't put into words what a incredible, life-changing (not an exaggeration) Skype consultation session I had with T. J. Ziebell. I am going through one of the most painful griefs of my life, and not only did T. J. very personally empathize, not only did he let me talk and cry as much as I needed, but he gave me some very simple yet amazingly effective practices to feel better instantly. To have these kinds of peace and lightness-inducing resources, and to have warmth, reassurance, comforting, and kind, gentle HONESTY during this kind of grief and loss is beyond words. This was an even better experience than anything I could have hoped for. I would definitely go back. I highly recommend T. J. to others. read more

I first saw Dr. Liu six years ago when I was suffering chronic migraines due to jaw tension caused taking a water polo ball to the face at full speed. I was suffering from migraines or headaches multiple times a week and had tried basic chiro care to no avail. Doctors said my one solution would be jaw surgery, but I gave ART a try first. After my first session my migraines stopped. I went about 4 times when I was home for the holidays and I haven't suffered headaches since -- for SIX YEARS after having them almost every day. I have never seen such amazing lasting results from any kind of care. Heads up though, it hurts. Like REALLY hurts. There were times it hurt so bad I was worried I would pee myself on the table. But the relief after was worth it every time. She may look tiny, but Dr. Liu is STRONG! Fast forward six years and I have chronic shoulder issues from surfing. I was ready to go for an MRI but then remembered the magic of Dr. Lui. She has helped me immensely with my shoulder problems, as well as hip and calf pain. She is great at explaining your body to you and, most importantly, will teach you how to retrain your movements to properly use your muscles. If you have any problems, give her a try. Dr. Liu has kept me in the water when I thought I'd have to give up my favorite hobby and I will always be thankful for that! read more

I have to say that Dr. Anna is amazing. She helped me get out of pain numerous times that was caused by a work injury. Unfortunately the accounting office and/or staff have no desire to help me use my insurance to supplement the high cost of treatments there. They gave me the run around numerous times when I've asked for help with worker's compensation and using my own private insurance. Because of this I have no choice but to look else where for my ART sessions. I will be sure to pass this bad experience along to the 3 other coworkers that use your services. read more

I developed sciatica during my training program for the Boston Marathon 2016. Two-months out from the race, I quit training and took a 4 week break. Dr. Dawn Liu was recommended by a few of the runners in my running circle. I called Action Performance immediately. Dr. Dawn spent nearly an hour on my first visit. I was sweaty! Bending, stretching, squatting, and even running. She broke down my issues. It wasn't just sciatica. I was dealing with hip issues, tight hamstrings, weak glutes, and my form was suffering. The sciatic pain was the last straw. I was devastated with the set-back. She started treatment (ART) immediately and had me stretching and working on my core at home. Two weeks later I was back to running short distances. I wasn't completely healed but I was able to run with much less discomfort. The ART was targeting the deep tissue that had been stressed for so long and impossible to reach with simple stretching and foam rolling One month later, I raced my best half marathon by more than 2 minutes. And one month after that, I toed the line at Boston! I raced my strongest full marathon even with terrible weather conditions. Most importantly, I was pain free. I have to thank Dr. Dawn for all that she did to me physically and mentally. She knows what she's doing! She treats the problem and she corrects the cause as well. She gave me the confidence I needed to get myself back to running and to trust in the treatment. read more

Technique was pretty good but the bedside manner needs some definite improvement. I waited for over 45 minutes to be seen on my first appointment and 35 on the second. Dr. Liu was rushed and impatient with me. She actually went as far as saying my body seemed broken--I had so many problems that needed to be fixed. While it may have been the truth at the time, as an injured runner, it really was depressing and I believe set me back in my treatment. After 5 visits and little improvement, I gave up and went elsewhere. I am now seeing an amazing PT who pinpointed my problem on the first visit and I'm finally on the road to recovery! read more

Dr Dawn and Ben from Action Performance Care used A.R.T. to treat my daughter for sports-induced shin splints that had been causing problems for over 2 years . After a few short sessions, my daughter is now 100% pain free. Dr Dawn also helped with her running form to minimize the chance of reoccurrence. Very highly recommended. read more

I injured my shoulder at the beginning of the year, and had an impingement in the upper part of my right arm. I experienced pain with any pushing motion or lifting weight overhead. Over the months that followed, I sought virtually every treatment under the sun in the hopes of avoiding surgery, including massage therapy, physical therapy, acupuncture and chiropractic treatments. They all did nothing for me. Six months and over a thousand dollars later, just when I thought I was going to need surgery, my friend referred me to Action Chiropractic. After having sought so many other treatments, including with my regular chiropractor, I was quite skeptical. After a few treatments of Active Release Therapy, Dr. Anna got my shoulder back to 100%. Unfortunately, I got so excited, I resumed using my shoulder too quickly instead of taking it easy and allowing time to heal and re-injured it. I had to go back for a couple more treatments, and am now back in Crossfit with no modifications. I have complete use of my shoulder and experience zero pain with any pushing motions and lifting overhead. I can't recommend Dr. Anna Phillips enough and have since been recommending Action to everyone, especially those who have already sought treatment without results. For anyone skeptical about the efficacy of Active Release Therapy based on the Wikipedia page, I would suggest also being skeptical about anything you read on Wikipedia. Give A.R.T. a try and find out for yourself. read more

Dr Liu is brilliant on every level and I highly recommend any of her services! I'm a HUGE believer in Active Release Technique. It saved my feet many years ago from plantar fasciitias. I was excited to learn Dr Liu teaches ART, so I booked an appt for my shoulder pain and she blew my mind with her knowledge. She took lots of time with me and was very thorough and sweet. I'm going to her weekly now and will refer her to everyone!! read more

I went to Dr Liu on recommendation from a friend. I play tennis and was having hip pain. Dr Liu spend about 45 minutes with me on the first visit just doing a diagnostic of my entire body - balance, flexibility, she analyzed my walk, etc. She treats the whole body and not just the isolated symptom that you go to her for. She has taught me better posture, walking, standing, breathing, and eventually running. Best of all, I cut out sweets from my diet at the same time. I have lost 13 pounds in 3 months. Really not a major change in eating but in addition to Dr Lui's work it all came together for a great result. Friends and family have noticed a big difference and it's not just the weight loss. I look and feel happier and I stand taller and stronger. It can be painful, but don't give up! Do all of the "homework" she gives you (stretching exercises etc). You will see results. It works! read more

I've been meaning to write a review for Dr. Anna Phillips for months now! While I've never been to their facility, Action was at the AFC Half Marathon Expo in 2012. I had just gotten a massive shin injury (looooooooong story) and had a bruise as big as your hand on my right shin. Action was offering free pre-race check-ups and I thought it might be worth it to check them out. Dr. Phillips took a look at my injury, did some drainage and recovery massage, then recommended that I pick up some k-tape. She even did the taping for me for free! On a post-college budget, I can't really afford to be visiting services like this on a regular basis, but if I ever need it, Action & Dr. Phillips are my official go-to. Thanks!!! read more

I've been going to Action for five years on and off for different injuries. Without fail they have been able to treat serious sports injuries and get me back into training or playing for triathlon, Crossfit, and other sports. Their methods are different from some of the chiropractors that I've been to, but they are the only ones that have consistently helped me heal and treated me quickly. They also offer a great military discount if you are able to take advantage of that. read more

I developed a serious pain in my toe/foot over a few months and was in constant pain. I couldn't apply pressure on my toe and walking on that foot became uncomfortable to the point of wincing. I went to my normal doctor to get a x-ray and have them check it out. The x-ray showed no damage to my foot despite the swelling and my described pain. They suggested it was possibly arthritis and something that I would just have to deal with and medicate the rest of my life. I'm 27. I visited Action Chiropractic for a second opinion, and I'm glad I did. Working with Dr. Dawn, she was able to identify the causes of my pain and help me correct it. I had developed many bad walking habits which were causing the stress and pain in my toe/foot. During our sessions, Dr. Dawn helped by working on/massaging the affected muscles to reduce the pain significantly in the short term, and then provided me with step by step corrections to fix my bad walking habits for the long term. Dr. Dawn helped turn my recent experience of constant pain back into my normal, pain free, life I had before. read more

I've had a similar experience: I love Dr. Anna, she is very good. She helped me get back to all the things I love to do. Unfortunately the "business" is not honest. They overcharge, force you to pay out of pocket even though they are part of the insurance network (have a contract with the network), and after a decision from the insurance company and the network (ASH) granting my claim, they are still refusing to reimburse me. I decided that it was not worth the trouble and found closer to home an excellent chiropractor who is happy to take my insurance. Life it too short to waste it dealing with this kind of problem. read more

I was really looking forward to seeing Dr.Liu based on the existing reviews. I can't comment on the treatment, however. After 40 minutes in the waiting room she had not shown up, so I cancelled the appointment and left. I'm no doctor, but I expect professionals that serve me to value my time. If this is SOP in her office then she definitely does not need my business, and this was evident. Off to Massage Envy, at least they know how to keep a schedule there. read more

This is black magic for sports injuries. I don't know how Dr. Cipperoni (Anthony) fixed my problems but he did. I have multiple sports related injuries and complaints spanning 20+ years of running and martial arts. Over the years the problems have exacerbated and interacted with each other until my legs were a wonky hodgepodge of failed circuitry, tight tendons, and unbalanced muscles. I had the audacity to get back up and keep on running anyway when BAMM! ... I felt a weird pop and I was grounded by hip and leg pain of mysterious origins. Dr. Anthony patiently navigated through the musculoskeletal abyss, found a root cause (or two, or three..), and after five weeks of steady repair work I was on the road again. I ran a race two weeks ago ... my first marathon ... on another continent; a bucket list race in a bucket list place. If it wasn't for Dr. Anthony I would have sweltered on the sidewalk watching instead of suffering in the street like everyone else. :) Thanks Doc! I couldn't have finished it without you. read more

Dr. Dawn Liu has literally helped change my life. I was on the verge of not being able to distance run ever again after experiencing toe issues during my 2011 marathon training season. After experiencing another toe injury early in my 2013 marathon training season, I started Active Refease Technique, ART, and have noticed immediate positive results since. Dr. Dawn Liu performed a biomechanics analysis of my funning form and has made recommendations on how I should run and has been actively working with me weekly. If you have any injury concerns or chronic issues, I highly recommend Dr. Liu. read more
