I recently moved from Kona to Pahoa and needed my back adjusted and aligned. The staff and service was great! We talked for a bit and went right into the exam. While going through the exam doctor explained everything and new exactly what areas needed to be worked on and how to get me feeling better again. Let's just say I left feeling no pain and feeling very relaxed. In a few weeks I have another appointment. I can't wait. read more

Sometimes miracles do happen! I had a creeping and steadily worsening pain in my right hip, over a couple of years, that wouldn't heal and that I didn't know what to do about. I began to think of it is "I guess I'm just getting older and this is what happens." Knowing that I'd had some success with chiropractors for back issues and that they also do more general structural alignment work, I booked a session at Back to Basics Chiropactors in Keaau. I saw Dr. Nolan, a fairly new chiropractor who had assisted the founder, Dr. Benjamin, in my first session with them 8 months ago. After a fairly comprehensive verbal checkup with his assistant Dr. Nolan came in and threw me around for 20 minutes, massaged my hips and glutes, and had me do a bunch of diagnostics. Even at the end of the session it seemed like my pain and sensitivity had diminished quite a bit. And that day walking around it felt way better. Now, 9 days later, I went for my first run since the session and I feel like I'm 98% healed. Remarkable! Highly recommend these guys if you have alignment/core issues. Definitely made me feel better physically and mentally realizing that some things that we may accept as natural aging issues don't have to be permanent. read more

Update: Another year of excellent care on every level. Making appointments is easy (via text! Swift real human responses!) Bodywork has lasting impact: having successfully remodeled tissue and restored function/alleviated pain with shockwave therapy, I'm still at it, just moving on to the more chronic less debilitating niggles. Shockwave cleared up my plantar, improved my hamstring reattachment site, REMOVED post surgery neck pain I've had for years... now treating a shoulder injury I've had for 25+ years. Hopeful! Adjustments keep me moving, gardening, hauling rocks... I mess myself up, Doc Ben and his awesome staff take care of me. (Thanks Jay, Katrina, Britany!) The care is top notch. The modalities and tools are bar none. The people are awesome humans, good conversation and kindly help me provide the excessive amount of paperwork my FSA requires. 10/10 recommend. read more

I suffered from severe back and leg pain for many years and saw numerous chiropractors who only gave me temporary relief. After seeing Benjamin only a few times I improved greatly and have been virtually pain free for the over 5 years that I've been seeing him. I highly recommend seeing him if you need chiropractic care. He has incredible knowledge in his field and is highly intuitive. He is truly a very special chiropractor. read more

Dr. Ben and his staff are the best in the business! I can explain to him where my pain is and after a couple of visits I am good as new! I highly recommend going to Back to Basics for an alignment and if you're lucky he'll tell you a few Dad jokes. read more

Dr. Ben is a lifesaver! The staff is super friendly & helpful & definitely welcomes you in like family. I've been having sciatica problems since April of 2011 & have gone through Physical Therapy & used muscle relaxers but nothing seemed to fully help until I got recommended to make an appointment with Back To Basics Chiropractic. Going in with pain & recovering a lot fast than my normal has just been amazing! I'll forever recommend this place for anyone's chiropractor needs! read more

Dr Ben is amazing and very knowledgeable. His staff is friendly and professional. I was suffering with neck/back pain for months. Seen several other chiropractors but he is by far the best! Thank you so much!!! read more

This place is still doing Mask Mandates. smh!!! chiropractic work was good. But are still implementing the mask requirement which is illegal. Insurance is who pays these type of companies. So, a complaint will be filed with my insurance company against them. The receptionist refused service at the door. This should be a choice read more

If your insurance is Medicare or Medicare Advantage, they will not accept you as a patient even if you offer to pay for services yourself. If you don't have any insurance so are paying cash, or if you have an insurance other than Medicare, THEN they'll provide health services. In other words, if you're over 65 and on Medicare you can forget about getting help from these people. There's no way I could recommend any company that has such a discriminatory policy. read more

If you've had a lot of experience searching for a great Chiropractor this is your guy. No fancy tests, no X-rays, nothing to sell you. You go in, he figures out what's up and corrects it. Then he gives you ways to help yourself at home. In and out feeling better. He also has unlimited corny Dad jokes and a really nice staff! Highly recommend especially for active people. read more

I visited this Chiropractor a while back, but just decided to make a review now. Staff is friendly and personable. The Doctor really tries to connect with you and he has a sense of humor. He is a friendly chiropractor that seems to really care for your health and offers sound advice on what you can do to relieve your pains. Although I don't currently go to the Chiropractor, if I did, I would defiantly visit Back To Basics Chiropractor with Dr. Ben. read more

I am unsure why they rate so high. The worst. From the receptionist to the wanna be medical assistant to the unprofessional Dr. Just bad.

My girlfriend and I have seen several chiropractors, and Benjamin is by far THE BEST one we've been to! My girlfriend has an old shoulder injury, and finally after 24 years and one adjustment session with Benjamin, she started getting feeling back in numb areas! With such reasonable rates, we look forward to being regulars at Back to Basics. How lucky are we to have access to great work on our big island! Thanks guys!! Aloha- Ethan's girlfriend here. Wanted to personally leave review... woke up this morning to less / almost no pain in my hip , yay! Also, loved getting my feet/ankles/wrists/hands/shoulders adjusted! An ounce of prevention is worth 10lbs of cure IMO. With my 24year old shoulder injury, I have never been able to properly do a push up, and with one slight adjustment, I finally got some strength back! Friggin miracle! Look forward to seeing what my body can do with more adjustments. read more

Dr Benjamin is a body wizard, and Jay is a fantastic communicator and scheduler. Highly highly recommend!

Words truly can't express how excellent Dr. Benjamin is and he is knowledgable, professional and most importantly, knows how to fix you. I've had sciatica pain for 12 years and the Doctor fixed the issues. That in itself has been awesome! I HIGHLY recommend him as a chiropractor. His wife is very educational too! read more

I highly recommend Dr. Benjamin. I had never been into a chiropractor before and was very profession and good at explaining everything he was doing and why. It took the first time anxiety away from adjustment. I immediately felt relief from the adjustment. Back to Basics is also VERY affordable as they do not take health insurance. They have made a rather expensive and vital service available (and affordable) to the community and that is great thing! read more

I was on vacation and had a bad tweak to my lower back. Dr Imagire fixed me up in no time. He offers quick appointments, definitely recommend. read more

Just stopped in for my first adjustment at this clinic. It was amazing Dr. Ben explained everything he was doing and why. I walked out feeling 1000 % better! I highly recommend Dr. Ben if you need an adjustment he even fixed issues I didn't know I had. read more

I have received chiropractic treatments for back and neck injuries for 35 years and my experience with Dr. Imagire was top notch. He took his time and asked me all the appropriate questions and did not rush me through the treatment. His care is in my opinion is probably the best I've had in the years of seeking chiropractic care. Highly recommended. read more

Love love love Dr. Ben and his wife Deirdre. Dr. Ben only adjusts what needs to be adjusted and you will feel 100% better after your appointment. He does not waste time with Xrays and supplements just fixes what ails you. He is the only chiropractor my husband or I will go to. Ask Dr. Ben about his million dollar hug! read more

Came in to get a feel for the treatment and care and loved every bit of it. Doc was well educated and friendly making it a very positive experience. read more
