I don't normally leave reviews this early into treatment, but I've noticed such a difference that I felt like I should. I've been dealing with what feels like every issue imaginable lately. MRIs, specialists, arm numbness, back pain, ankle and heel pain, and thumb pain. I started seeing Dr. Kim a few weeks ago, and we've been doing shockwave therapy on my ankle, heel, and thumb. The improvement has honestly been amazing. The biggest win has been my thumb. After just two sessions, I could finally feel my grip coming back after struggling with simple things like opening jars and even doors since last October. My arm numbness and back have also improved, and every visit I leave feeling a little better than the last. Dr. Kim takes the time to explain what's going on, answers all of my questions, and genuinely cares about getting his patients better. He'll also tell you he doesn't like small talk... don't believe him. Somehow every appointment ends up with a great conversation. Bonus points for being so sweet with my fur baby, Jaxx, whenever he comes with me. That definitely earned extra credit. If you're dealing with chronic pain or are curious about shockwave therapy, I'd definitely recommend Back on Point Wellness. My only regret is not finding Dr. Kim sooner! read more

I recently had my first visit with Dr. Ernest Kim at Back Point Wellness and I honestly can't recommend him enough. I'd been dealing with this massive stress ball lump in my neck for almost a year and nothing was working. I tried foam rolling and stretching constantly at home but it just wouldn't budge. When I went in, Dr. Kim really took the time to talk through my pain and actually listen to what was going on. He does these specific stretches during the adjustment that made a huge difference, and he definitely went above and beyond what I expected for a first appointment. My partner even noticed that the lump was finally gone after my visit and told me my walking and posture look way better. I'm complaining about pain so much less now and just feel more aligned. Even a few weeks later, my back and neck are still feeling great. I'm definitely looking forward to adding these visits to my regimen whenever I'm in pain again and need an adjustment. read more

Ernest Kim, you have built a wonderful wellness center! Thank you so much for catering to my health needs and truly going above and beyond to ensure I get the care I need! You saw me and my needs, you and your team REALLY LISTENED. Now a days it is very difficult to find a doctors office who wants to get down to the root of what is really going on. I really can't thank you for everything you've done to restore my health. Best care around! You read more

I've been going to Dr. Kim for my chiropractor needs (he is amazing as always) but came back recently for an injury and was pleasantly surprised to see that he expanded! The new office is nice and clean, with a friendly staff up front. They seem to be much more comprehensive now with so many different types of services. I also did not know this but he also can do PT on foot injuries - I got plantar fasciitis and he not only has a custom insole machine, he's able to help work your foot out to make sure that everything is okay. After getting my feet scanned, he helped me work through my pain and ensure that I was on the right track to recovery with stretches, massage, and more. I also got my back and body cracked which was such a relieving appointment overall. After my session, my foot started feeling so much better and the pain went away after a few days. The insoles came in about a week later and it was such a seamless and easy time. So glad that Back on Point Wellness is all encompassing and that they can help solve any issues! read more

I'm no stranger to chiropractic care. I've been to countless chiropractors for different reasons. Some of the best ones I've been to retired or moved away. So, finding a good one was a bit challenging since I've been spoiled by the best. Having said this, I had a session with Dr. Ernest Kim, and I was very impressed. He works with integrity and explains everything he was doing, which I appreciated. He worked on all my pain points and released them. I hadn't gone to a chiropractor in a while, so I needed a lot of work done. But he did it all. He works on the facia so it would release the tension. He was meticulous and thorough. It was a great session and so I made another appointment. I'm glad to have found this place and highly recommend it. read more

Today, I had the pleasure of experiencing my first chiropractic wellness visit. I came in for a low back strain experiencing inflammation and lots of pain, tightness & discomfort. The moment I came in the door, I was greeted by the reservationists whom were very pleasant & professional. A very calming and relaxing lounge area to say the least (instantly relaxed my nervous system - the energy felt great) Dr. Kim thoroughly consulted me, guided me through the process of stretches/adjustment that were going to take place. I came in extremely uncomfortable and left with lots of relief. ‍ My apologies for the cry that followed during service. At first, I felt so embarrassed but Dr. Kim reassured me that it was okay (releasing stress from the body). He made me feel very comfortable and at ease from the moment i was in his space to the moment I left. He provided me with aftercare and what he suggested I do to prevent the strain from happening in the future. If you're looking for a pleasant space and a great chiropractor Dr. Kim has the healers touch! Employees: pleasant Environment: peaceful Dr. Kim: professional/thorough/healing read more

I was referred by my cousin to check out Back on Point Wellness who had been a chiropractic patient in the past and was lucky enough to win a free acupuncture + cupping session with Holly Beck at their Grand Reopening Event. She was absolutely amazing! She was so thorough, insightful, and prescriptive as she gave me sound advice on how to deal with some of my health conditions and pain points. I discovered so much about my body in her session and it was fascinating to learn how my nervous system is connected and pathways lead to one another. I've been struggling with type 2 diabetes and foot pain and she taught me so much on how to ease some of the issues. She was so passionate about her work and really took her time to give me a calming experience. My favorite part was the cupping at the end which left me loose and relaxed leaving their office. I'd definitely recommend booking a session with her. Thank you for the warm welcome and great customer service. I'm grateful for this experience. read more

I had not visited a chiropractor for a few years and decided it was time. Dr. Ernest Kim does wonders. He helped with some acute pain i had pushed aside and helped with relieving tightness in my back. Definitely going back for some more, in-depth physical therapy next visit. If anyone is having any type of pains or discomfort, make sure you make a visit. Highly recommended. read more

I have started my external ship at Back on Point Wellness in June 2025 I have learned a lot from the front desk to assisting all the doctors here at the clinic. They have helped me navigate my experience as a medical assistant to new heights. I truly appreciate Dr.Kim and the teams knowledge and helpfulness in my experience here at Back on Point Wellness. Much love #shivani read more

Amazing chiropractors that stretch you in a way to reduce the knots and pain and only do the cracking adjustment if necessary. Very supportive, professional,and people friendly from the chiropractors to acupuncturist to massage therapist and front office staff. A feel good front lobby and new modalities coming soon. They are wellness driven. read more

I was referred to Back on Point by a Medical billing service. I was suppose to be treated by Gregory Stayberg. I arrived approximate twenty minutes early. I filled out a couple forms and waited in the lobby. As I was waiting, I heard a male voice talking to the receptionist the whole time. At approximate 3:15PM, which was the time of my appointment, a female patient walked in. She apologized for being late and said she would wait if she could be squeezed in between patients. Mr. Stayberg told the female patient, "That's okay, I can treat you right now." I waited a few more minutes and decided to ask the receptionist if the man she was talking to was my assigned chiropractor. She said. "yes." I decided to leave to find another chiropractor. read more

My body is finally working the way it should be! The first time I came to the clinic my neck was so messed up. I woke up with a messed up neck from sleeping incorrectly. I walked around like a combination of Frankenstein and a zombie at the same time. After my first session with Dr. Kim I finally had full movement. It was my first adjustment ever and I've never felt so light in my body before. 1 month after my first treatment I came back again for another one to work on my lower body specifically my knee area. Every time I ran more than 2 miles my knees would lock up and I'd have a hard time even walking. In the session, he did some massaging, pressed on some pressure points, and did his adjustments. Holyyyy omg (I don't ever say omg by the way). But the very next day I ran 2 miles and for the first time in 2 years I didn't feel like I was injuring myself. I felt like I had a new body. I don't know what he did to me but since my adjustment I've felt aligned in my body physically as well as energetically. You have to go see Dr Kim! read more

Had a great experience in all aspects! The staff here really care about you and want to guide you through and even help locate causes/roots of where your pain comes from, ultimately to relieve and to repair. Dr. Ernest Kim helped me out with my neck and shoulder pains, definitely will be going back for more treatment. Also, Angie, one of the staff members was really nice and helpful! I have had neck and shoulder pain for years, still ongoing but visiting Back On Point really helped out with the tension and discomfort! Don't miss out! read more

Made an appointment by text, confirmed the date/time and provided the name , dob etc...when I arrived, they said I never replied with the name/dob...you would think if they never received the response on their end, they would send a follow up text or even call since they had my number. For the record, I replied within the minute, and showed them the timestamp to my reply. read more

I am 36 weeks pregnant and went in for a maternity treatment today with Dr Kim and what a relief my body felt after! I knew I was holding tension but I didn't know how stiff and tight my whole body was. He's always been considerate of my comfort levels and gentle with the movements. I felt so light and loose afterwards it felt like my baby had more room to stretch in my belly. I took a nice nap on the ride home from being so relaxed. Highly recommend and will be back postpartum! read more

I love this place! It's a one stop shop, they offer EVERYTHING! I've had chiropractic adjustments, a custom massage for my specific ailments. And my favorite combo is Acupuncture and cupping. Everyone here is knowledgeable and has amazing skills. There are other services they offer that I have yet to try. They are the definition of Selfcare! Every time I leave I feel better than when I walked in. Thank you Dr. Kim, Angie, Dr. Reid, Abby and Trevor read more

Very serene, calming and welcoming. The massage therapist are top tier. Can't wait to go back

Had neck pains and I couldn't turn my neck. Went to my original chiro and he said I would need an xray and go through multiple sessions to fix it. Thought I would get a second opinion and visited Back on Point and Dr. Ernest looked at me for a second, asked me to take off my shirt and just look at myself. My neck or the muscle on my right side, deltoid? Was noticeable bigger than my left and he immediately started digging into my neck muscle. Once the session was done he had my look again and it was noticeably less swollen. He said one more session and I should be good. Pain definitely subsided as well. Came back a couple of days later and I was back to normal. I was wmindblown by how simple my situation was and the fact that Dr. Ernest saw it so simply and just fixed it asap without all the extra costs and fluff. Integrity and a genuine care to fix me right away without over charging me. A Chiro I can trust is definitely a win. read more

THE BEST. HANDS DOWN. Everyone is friendly, their bedside manner is great and they take the time To listen and really hear all your needs before doing anything. They aren't like most chiropractors that crack you and send you on your way. I went for them for prenatal and post natal care as well and they did such a great job and I came out, every time, feeling like a new person! read more

I've been coming to Back On Point Wellness for a while due to an automotive injury case. The staff here is amazing. They are always courteous, knowledgeable and provide excellent customer service. Recommendations: -Abby their acupuncturist is an absolute sweetheart! -Message therapist: They have different levels of message pressure depending on your preference and needs. I personally see Gio and he's great! Super friendly and really knows his trade. Really seems like you can't go wrong with whoever you decide to assist you with your body ailment needs. Overall: 10/10 would recommend read more

Worth it. The parking lot can be a little confusing if you're coming off Anza because there are two entries next to each other, but the smaller alley looking one will take you into the right plaza. If you're coming off Del Amo there's a big entrance and the sign is easily read. The windows on the building are all reflective so no one can see in which is great for privacy. As soon as you walk in you are greeted by the lovely staff at the front and there's a nice waiting area with a lot of products for purchase, some tea & coffee, and educational reading. I never wait long after checking in on the tablet, which lets you take an assessment for your problems that day. The rooms are quaint, clean, and well organized. I've now seen Dr.Kim for chiropractic, acupuncture & cupping (first time). Each time has been extremely friendly, professional, and restorative. He answers in depth any questions and concerns I have and is constantly checking in. I can tell from start to finish of the appointment my problem areas are instantly less tense and strained. I always leave feeling better than when I came in and plan to continue treatment here for long term results. read more

I've been struggling with neck & shoulder tension my entire life; it has progressively worsened over the years. Having severe knots in the aforementioned trouble areas has been a hinderance. That said, Trevor did a fabulous job throughout my massage session. My neck definitely felt less constricted & lighter by the end of it. Trevor also took some time to go over certain strategies & techniques for long-term care. Overall, I feel incredibly satisfied with my experience. 10/10 would highly recommend! read more

Dr. Kim's treatment went above and beyond expectations and I left feeling great! I've gone to chiropractors on and off for decades but he's easily the most thorough and naturally intuitive one I've met. Adjustments were awesome with immediate improvement in range of motion, and I especially appreciated his invitation for thoughtful self reflection as part of the session. I definitely believe emotions play a big role in pain and overall health so I think it's brilliant to address that alongside performing the physical treatment. Super grateful for the experience, looking forward to returning. Thank you! read more

Outstanding experience from start to finish. Their staff is wonderful! Trevor was super helpful and kind, and was able to get me in the same day. Dr Kim is a real gem. He's patient and intuitive, and you can tell he really cares about his patients. He's helped me tremendously with my back, neck and shoulder pain. A true jedi! Not to mention all the educational information and tips they provide in the waiting room has helped me maintain pain free. I always walk out feeling like a whole new person. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

So not really an update but just wanted to say once again, what a blessing this place has been for me. The past few years have been difficult with multiple surgeries and personal crisis. Gail has been a miracle for me with her craniosacral therapy and massage. I have had nerve pain from spinal injury and surgery for almost 2 decades and her therapy is better than medication. I literally cry every time she works, her magic, releasing emotion and stress, I did not even know my body was holding on to. Everybody there is so welcoming and kind it feels like one big family every time! read more

I went in a back in may after dealing with sciatica for months. I was at the point where it was affecting my day to day life. After researching what could help, I came across The y strap. I work in Torrance so I googled local chiropractors in the area that specialized in that. Came across back on point wellness and scheduled An appointment and was luckily seen the same day. Dr Ernest Kim was honestly the best thing to happen to me. After two sessions my sciatica completely went away. I was skeptical at first but I can say with 100% honesty that going into his office was the best decision I made. The staff was amazing and friendly. I highly recommend his office. If you're dealing with sciatica you understand how painful it is and we wish for something to cure it. Back on point took care of me. read more

I recently got into a car accident and decided to how them because of how versatile their practice is. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. They have a clean facility and went above and beyond to make use I am getting the treatment I need. read more

I am regular patient of Dr. Ernie Kim from the day he started working and a very frequent patient since he opened Back on Point Wellness. I trust him 1000% and have never not felt better after being treated by him. I see him for acupuncture and chiropractic/physical therapy. He is an exceptional doctor in every way. He is very well educated and competent, but also intuitive and a healer. He can feel from tension in my body what emotional issue could be responsible and will gently start a conversation. He is also a truly wonderful human being of the highest integrity who goes the extra mile for his patients. read more

TLDR; Hands down the best place for true healing vs. quick superficial cracks. I've been to numerous chiropractors, acupuncturists, and massage therapists and I can confidently say after literally trying everyone out, this place is a gem. Appointments book up fast so I'm hesitant to let the secret out. You really can't go wrong with anyone/service here. The moment you step in, you're greeted by the friendly front office (Trevor, Angie, Molina). They really go out of their way to make sure the booking all the way to the service(s) rendering is flawless and nothing short of amazing. Dr. Kim and Dr. Jake are just really zen. They really care about healing you and making you feel better for the long term. They supplement manipulations with ART which really makes the difference. I've been going for my TMJ and the pain is pretty gnarly during but afterwards, I'm practically pain free for awhile and without headaches. Abby, the acupuncturist, is chef's kiss. I have not met a more effective Acupuncturist. In searching for one, I almost gave up entirely. Grateful I found her. She's really intuitive. Lastly the massage therapists. Cindy, Patty, Mindy, Gio. Everyone has their own style and they're all the best in their trades. There's a blend of sports therapy, acupressure/ trigger point, Thai, and just a good ole relaxation massage. They're all so good, I can never stick with one. And they're so nice they encourage you to hop around based on whatever you're feeling you need. This place is just awesome. Go. Relax. Heal. Enjoy. Zen. read more

Amazing staff! Front desk employees are always very kind, and all of the staff here are amazing. I've been having constant pain around my upper back/shoulder blade area for years that I had to get monthly deep tissue massages for. The pain would come back the very next week, and I had to wait till my next massage for the temporary relief. It wasn't until I saw Dr.Kim, who pointed out that I had a rib out. After the adjustment, the pain finally went away and I realized I forgot how "normal" felt like. The pain was gone and I was even able to breathe better. I've also had acupuncture done in sync with my menstrual cycles as well, and it completely got rid of any cramps and pms symptoms over the course of three sessions. On occasions when my body needs a little more care, I get adjusted by Dr.Kim, acupuncture/cupping and massage. Heidi is amazing at targeting key areas and really works on those knots. If you can handle a really deep tissue like the ones you can only get in Asia, she's the only person I found in the U.S who can give you that pressure. I also had a great session with Gio - he's a great balance between firm and gentle, his massage feels like a vinyasa flow in the best way possible, if that makes sense. I drive all the way from LA to come here, the care I get from the providers here and the results I see, are not easily found elsewhere, and is worth every drive. read more

I was always weary of chiropractors but my lawyer from a car accident claim recommended I get a chiropractor. I started seeing a different chiropractor for back pain. My old chiro put me on machines and did maybe 3 minutes of manual treatment. I was getting discouraged because I wasn't feeling better after 2 months of treatment. My friend recommend I see Dr. Kim after he helped her with back pain from a friend accident. So i decided to switch and see Dr. Kim. I've seen him for 8 sessions and he's helped me so much! His sessions are about 30 minutes and he does all manual treatments (stretching, myofascial release, adjustments)....no machine whatsoever! He knows what areas to work on by feeling with his hands...and he's super strong. My pain is getting better and I'm able to tolerate more activities after seeing Dr. Kim. He has an approach that is holistic...he's given me great suggestions for brain fog and acid reflex! During covid, the staff/ patients wear masks and sanitizers are available everywhere. I know that they're wiping down mats because it's wet right as I enter. So it's very clean! Staff have been friendly and the parking lot has plenty of parking available. It's super frustrating when your back aches because it does debilitate your daily life...but don't lose hope because you'll be in good hands with Dr. Kim and Back on Point Wellness! Highly recommend!!o read more

Dr Ernest Kim and his staff at Back On Point Wellness are just amazing and so friendly. I've been to several chiropractors in the area to work on my shoulder/neck and hip. I've been accustomed to going into an office, getting an adjustment, and leaving. Quickly for the chiropractors to try getting me on a 20+ visit package for thousands. My first visit with Dr. Kim was completely different. Not only did he provide instant relief physically with his adjustment techniques, but also, he helped me spiritually. His intuition helped me work on releasing tension in my body from personal issues. It was the first time meeting him but it felt as if he'd known me for so long. I 1000% recommend him and his team if you're tired of the quick visits that lead you to no relief or benefit in your personal life. I know where I'll keep going to work on my physical body and spiritual self! read more

I love this place!!!! From walking in and talking to Dr. Ernest and getting my assessment done as a new patient. Dr Ernest is really gentle and intuitive. Really excited to continue my treatment and wellness! read more

Massage by Mindy was wonderful as she applied multiple techniques to learn and address even my less severe painful needs.

I'm always skeptical when I go to a chiropractor or massage therapist for the first time. The techniques that Dr. Jake uses were new to me and so I left not knowing what to expect. By the very next morning, I was feeling so much better. I actually felt aligned. I've gone back for three more sessions and each time I feel better and better. Dr. Jake is excellent. My first experience at Back on Point Wellness was with Cindy. She is the BOMB! Next week I go back to Cindy...I'll be sandwiching my treatments. Soon I'll feel like I'm 25 again. read more

I had to have a microdiscectomy to repair a bulging disc. And my three superstars... - Jake (chiro) - Abby (acupuncturist) - Cindy (masseuse) ... got me ready for the procedure with several treatments leading up to it and were instrumental in my recovery. Because they had prepped me so well, my recovery was a breeze and I was back to working out 6-8 weeks post-op. I still see each of them about once a month, and at 40 my body feels better than it has in ten years. To have all of these services in one place has been a godsend for me. The practice is also very professionally run and they're great about taking insurance. read more

I've had the pleasure of working with Dr. Jake a couple of times now and I definitely recommend him as well if you're looking for a chiropractor. He's able to address your concerns and does a great job in helping you feel better. read more

Ever since i found this place & seeing them at my gym the Ufc of Torrance I enjoy coming to this clinic. From the relaxing vibe of the office to the friendly staff, when you step in the door, you really notice a difference from the outside world. I come to see Angie for cupping as she is the best I've ever experienced. Angie is a wonderful communicator, friendly, and very instinctive in her craft. My stress starts to dissolve when she speaks. Furthermore, she can sense where the tight muscles and trigger points are in your body in order to place a cup for maximum relief. The amount of pressure she applies to the cups lets my body and muscles know its time to rest and recover, I fall into a half sleep like state when Angie is working on me. The experience is blissful. When the cupping is done I am relaxed an ready . I always look forward to my next appointment. Shoutout To Angie ! Thank You Back On Point Wellness read more

Dr. K has the best wellness facility I've ever been to. They have chiro, acupuncture, massage, acupuncture, cupping, etc... I've had a few deep tissue sessions with Cindy and I have never experienced this level of tissue manipulation. I am in utter pain & tears throughout the whole time. I get nervous before my session with Cindy because I know what I'm about to endure. She uses her crossfit strength to grind/pull/stretch/tenderize every piece of muscle. I've never felt better after receiving deep tissue with Cindy...but be prepared, you will suffer (in the best way). read more
