I had severe back pain and a friend kept telling me to go to chiropractor for treatment. (I never believed in chiropractics.) BUT. I was in sooooo much pain that I called and left v-mail on their after hour service. Alison called me the minute they opened and she had one of the doctors come in early just to treat me. That alone rates them with five stars in my world. I'm happy to report that after ONE SESSION, my pain level went from 8 to 1. Seriously. It was absolutely incredible. I am a convert. This is my newest addition in my wellness journey, and I will be back for regular treatments. Thank you, Alison, for your quick thinking outside the proverbial box, and getting me an appointment so quickly. Thank you, Dr. Kim for patiently explaining your methods and for fixing me. You are truly a healer. read more

Chiropractic Neurology Center - Comfortable and welcoming lobby. - Chiropractors Near Me - Long Beach, California

Dr Groves is brilliant! He is extremely knowledgeable- knows so much about the brain & the spine, etc. Great alternative to traditional Neurology. Or traditional Chiropratic. One of the best doctors I've ever seen! & I've seen many!! And he is very patient & caring too. A wonderful human being. And all his staff is great- all so kind & helpful! In particular, Ernestine is a joy. It is definitely worth a visit!! You will see a big difference neurologically, structurally & painwise. read more

I started working with Dr. Karin Kim in October due to having some issues with my knees as I age. I'm 54 and active and have started having issue with knees and other joints. I was pleasantly surprised at the extent of the initial exam that Dr. Kim provided. So thorough and above anything I've encountered at other offices. The treatment to date has proven to be very helpful. My knees are much better and we are working on other alignment issues which were likely contributing to my knee problems. It has been such an educational and rewarding experience. The neurology side of this treatment has been kind of mind blowing and I love how much explanation Dr. Kim provides around the science. The front office is organized and very pleasant. I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes at check in or check out. Highly recommend! read more

I love Dr. Kim! Anyone looking for chiropractic care for Pregnancy/Postpartum, look no further. Dr. Kim is so knowledgeable, welcoming and kind. She takes her time to explain things to make sure you understand things clearly. She IS the person YOU want to see. I was referred by my sister in law to Dr. Kim. I was pregnant at 26 weeks and wished I came to her earlier. I wanted to get my body in order before I had my baby. My first appointment , she was very welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. She took her time and really explained things to me thoroughly. I was so nervous about delivery as it was my first child but Dr. Kim helped ease my mind. She helped release all the tension that I was building up for delivery. I soon return after having my first baby. Dr. Kim is now helping me with my shoulder, lower back and wrist- all that has been bothering me since having my son 7 months ago. I feel that not only is Dr. Kim a Chiropractor but an overall life coach! I look forward to my weekly appointments with her. She is definitely helping me get back into moving, dancing and my range of motion in my overall body. read more

I am glad I found Dr. Kim to take care of my injuries. I find her initial assessment detailed and her on-going care very effective. I am grateful for the treatment I've been receiving and believe I will continue to improve under her care. Thank you, Dr. Kim! read more

I come here to see Erin Holloway for acupuncture. She has treated me for everything from GI issues, my back and other lingering car accident injuries. I wish I could give her more stars. She has a sixth sense about the root cause of my aches and pains and is able to quickly bring relief. She is the absolute best! read more

I am extremely pleased with the outstanding care I have received at Chiropractic Neurology Center. The adjustments and education I have received from Dr. Kim have been very helpful for my overall health and wellbeing. The front office staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. They make every visit feel so welcoming and smooth. Honestly, I look forward to my appointments, and I would recommend Dr. Kim and Dr. Groves to anyone in need of a chiropractor. read more

I regularly drive from the heart of Los Angeles through fires, traffic and pestilence to get my treatments here. Insightful, friendly, incredibly knowledgeable. Dr. Groves understands how alignment and neurological pathways work. Everyone here is a joy to see. read more

I've been suffering with neck and shoulders issues for about ten years, Nothing had helped. Then I met Dr. Kim, at Long Beach Boot Camp. She gave a small lecture on shoulder and neck injuries. I soon got her information, and scheduled an exam. She has helped me resolve some of the pain, and I am continuing treatments as I am a work in progress. I highly recommend her for any neurological issues, She is very knowledgeable and really personalizes your treatment to your issues. read more

I've been to quite a few chiropractors in my life and I would say Dr. Groves at Chiropractic Neurology Center is probably the best out there. He's not super cheap if you're paying out of pocket, but you get what you pay for. Dr Groves is not just a chiropractor, but he's also a neurologist. He knows the nervous system VERY well. Guy really is brilliant. I was referred to him by my x-g/f who was in a major car accident and had serious problems as a result. She was basically cured by Dr. Kim after a few months of visits. I came here about 6 years ago with excruciating pain. I was on the verge of having major surgery done on my herniated C5-C6 disk resulting from a traumatic experience. Dr Groves did some x-rays and convinced me NOT to get surgery, that he himself could get me back to good health. He said that he has seen some patients where he did recommend major surgery, but for me, there was no question: he could fix the issue. Let's just say I was in serious, major pain, unable to sleep, and function at work because of my pain. In two month's time I was about 85% better. I mean, the guy knows what he is doing. And about 4 months later I was about 97% better. Incredible results. My neck has flared up again (once you injure your back, there is a good chance you'll need care for your life), and I've started going back again to Dr. Groves. He charges about $50-55 per visit, but why not invest in yourself and pain management? I really wouldn't consider anybody else and really like having him as my chiropractor. In summary, don't bother going anywhere else for chiropractic care. I've been to two other chiropractors in the LBC and Dr. Groves is IT!! read more

Dr. Groves is amazing! He's done so much for my family and I. After struggling with my dads, going to various doctors and "specialists" trying to figure out why he had a tight throat and couldn't swallow, we finally ended up with Dr.Groves. He diagnosed my father with myasthenia gravis and guided us to getting treatment. My dad also simultaneously had a torn meniscus and he was able to treat his knee, allowing him to walk in just a matter of days. The best thing about him is that he CARES! A lot of doctors that I've encountered in dealing with my dad's health struggle is that they don't care. They don't have interest in helping their patients or curing them. I'm grateful that we have Dr. Groves. He's a genius and knows what he's doing! Recently, my bf and I got into a car accident and we saw him. He treated us and even gave us exercises to do at home. This place is worth the visit! read more

I am so grateful to have found this office and be under the care of Dr. Kim. She is a wonderful, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable chiropractor. I found her out of desperation after suffering from a really bad experience from a previous chiropractor. The previous chiropractor adjusted me so poorly that I was in chronic pain for about a year and subsequently developed neuropathy. After seeing orthopedic specialists, going through physical therapy and even trying alternative techniques, my body just wasn't healing correctly. Then I found Dr. Kim and her husband, Dr. Groves, after reading some online reviews. I honestly was so scared to go back to a chiropractor because of my previous experience but was so desperate that I thought I would give it a try. It has been the best experience. I met both Dr. Kim and Dr. Groves for one of my first visits and I can tell they truly care and will work together to figure out how to get you well. Dr. Kim has done all my treatments and I had so much improvement in just the first month it was incredible. She is so kind and even lets me bring my kids to the appointment which is a huge help so I don't have to get a babysitter. I trust her completely and her treatments are gentle and effective. I highly recommend this office if you are looking for exceptional care in a warm and clean environment. read more

I really want to give Dr. Groves a five star rating because he has helped me through a couple of issues but... I don't call as much as I would like because you have to go through his front office. Maria is difficult! At the end of a discussion about making an appointment, her comment was "...well, you don't have to make an appointment HERE". Not very professional and rude, to say the least. There is one person in this office that needs to work on their bedside manner, and that is Maria. read more

All I can say is dr Groves is my miracle dr!!!! I go in... tell him what my problem is... & bam! He fixes it!!! I've been going to him got over 10 years thanks to my amazing neurologist dr omdivar!!! He sent me to him!!! & his staff... Allison in particular... running out to take my temperature... ... I love her I definitely recommend Chiropractic Neurology Center 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 etc.... you get my drift!! ‍‍ read more

I'm so glad I came back to Dr. Karin Kim! She is amazing! She really helps me understand my body & what it needs, not just doing adjustments but explaining why she is doing what she is doing & in a way that makes sense to the average person. I highly recommend her & Chiropractic Neurology Center! read more

Dr Karin is amazing!!!! I would recommend her and her husband, they are very professional, caring, and experts in this. You will not regret going to them!! read more

The best. I have history of bulging disk and my back went out and was in horrible pain. Dr Groves got me back on my feet with his planned treatment regimen. Always professional and the front staff is caring supportive and helpful. Thank you for all you did to get me back to health! read more

There are no words to express the gratitude I have for Dr Groves and his AMAZING STAFF! I was not even able to walk and was in so much pain from hurting my back. Every step I took felt like the worst pain I can describe. Tears flowed as I entered his office. His staff got me in and he and his massage team did their magic. He really knows what he is doing! I was walking a week later w minimal pain and today (2 weeks later) I am totally pain free! He is so caring and his entire staff truly is the best!! I highly recommend him!! read more

Dr. Karin Kim and Dr. Shad Groves are amazing! I've been to chiropractors that were give a you a neck tweak and send you on your way-these two are so different! They work with every inch of you; from your vision to your digestive trac (when they do the stomach work, yes, it's slightly embarassing, but it's GOOD FOR YOU) to the very tips of your toes-I am totally oversimplifying this, but they believe that you can't just, for example, treat the back for back pain-and they're right. I have a condition called cubital tunnel syndrome; imagine the feeling you get when you bang your elbow (the ulnar nerve); now imagine some degree of that pain and tingling all the time. Dr. Kim helped me treat and manage the pain without medication (which made me gain a bunch of weight and caused permanant damage-but that doctor is a review for another time). And because I was paying for this on my own, really worked with my budget. When my ex got into a bad car accident-he was her first stop; and she treated the back and neck pain without the use of pills. I can't even begin to sing the praises of this place enough. They're amazing and really, really know what they're doing. read more

Dr. Shad Groves is a highly knowledgeable and experienced chiropractic neurologist. This means he has additional training and certification in the neurology and the practical application of that knowledge in determining the underlying health issue and specifically treating it. Given this, his evaluations are much more extensive than most other chiropractors. His treatment recommendations are based on scientific approaches and if there is anything ambiguous, Dr. Groves makes a dedicated effort to continue to evaluate until the diagnosis is clear. I have been a patient of Dr. Groves for over a decade. Each time an issue comes up, he has been able to accurately assess and guide me to recovery, so my actual number of visits to him are usually very limited. I know that he has various specialized tools and equipment for those with more complicated health issues. His office visits are generally running on time, and his office has very convenient access from the parking options. His office staff are professional, organized and helpful. Dr. Groves also has a kind heart and does not display an ounce of arrogance despite his vast knowledge. He has never tried to sell me anything or to make a profit on something that seemed unnecessary. It is always a pleasure to meet and speak with him. I cannot recommend him highly enough!! I have recommended others to him, all of whom have had equally positive experiences. read more

Dr Shad and his staff are awesome! Thank you so much for helping feel so much better with my adjustments and massages I feel like a new person every time I'm here. Big thanks to my massage therapist Shellsea! You are such an amazing therapist, from the time I get on the table to the time we're finished I am so relaxed and relieved of every ache and pain, there is no sore or tight muscle that can escape your hands what would I do with out you. To all who read this review stop in for a consultation or just let Shellsea work her magic I guarantee you will not be disappointed,of all my experiences with massage therapists she is hand down the best I have ever had! See you next week, keep up the good work! read more

Amazing! 2 years of pain with pinched nerves, C5 and C6, and no relief from VA health care. Six weeks with Dr Groves and the pain is 95% gone. Amazing! Dr. Kim is also excellent. I highly recommend this office. I have never been a fan of chiropractic but I am a fan of Dr. Groves. read more

I have been going here for over a month now and happy to say that I am feeling the benefits of Dr. Groves magic! Maria and Ernestine are so sweet and make me feel comfortable, plus they are flexible with my schedule. Best part- I can bring my little kiddos along and they don't mind at all. read more

I was referred to Chiropractic Neurology Center, and have been grateful ever since. I've suffered from sciatica pain off and on (mostly on) for over 20 years, and not only did Dr. Groves help dampen the pain, he's also helped with cervicogenic pain left from being rear-ended on the freeway a few years ago, as well as various MS-related problems and pains. The staff is personable, helpful, and friendly as well. He's not just a "bone cracker," but provides a much more inclusive treatment due to his neurological knowledge as well. One of the best referrals I've received in many-a-year. As an aside, two of my friends had also visited Dr. Groves (or Dr. Kim, who's his associate, as well as his wife) with the same positive experiences. read more

I got banged up pretty good in a car accident which caused a neck injury & pain in multiple areas of my body, chronic headaches. Major whiplash. Fatigued, poor concentration & chronic irritability. I felt like a certified Zombie. That all changed when I drug myself into see Dr. Groves for treatment. I was amazed at his thorough examination & expertise as well as the relief from his adjustments. I am happy to return among the living with great improvement, my life back on track. I like to refer to Dr. Groves as a super human - giving him a rating of a 10 out of 5. The office is immaculate & bright. Ernestine is an angel. Maria is very knowledgeable & helpful. I was treated like a queen. The waiting period to see the doctor was brief. This office is one smooth professional operation. read more

I started seeing Dr Kim less than a month ago for pregnancy-related pains (or so I thought) that made walking almost impossible for the few days before my first appointment. I was so pleasantly surprised by her approach to addressing the pain. There is a lot of thought and sense into how she assesses where your weaknesses are and what is causing your bodily issues. She does a great job explaining the neurological connections and connects that to what she physically does to you -- and it works! I went from a pain level of 10/10 at the start of the appointment to maybe a 4/10 by the end, was down to a range of 0/10-2/10 by the next day and have bad zero pain since. I can't recommend her and her magic ways enough and am trying to get everyone I know to pay her a visit! Bonus: front desk staff are all awesome and friendly as well. Very warm and welcoming atmosphere. read more

I highly recommend Chiropractic Neurology Center! I drive up to an hour each way, sometimes 1-3 times a week (w/ my kids) to see Dr. Kim... she's totally worth the drive! I started seeing Dr. Kim several years ago when I was pregnant and having lower back pain. During that time, I had a wonderful experience. After my pregnancy, I would see her on and off. Recently, I started seeing her again because I was having massive back and neck pain, along with panic attacks. Dr. Kim is helping me heal and I can't thank her enough! She's attentive and gives informative feedback. If my kids are with me, she takes the time to explain to them how and why she's adjusting me. Dr. Kim is truly gifted at what she does and I feel so blessed to have met her. The office is very clean. The staff (especially Maria and Ernestine) is friendly and professional. Dr. Groves is awesome too (my mother-in-law sees him and speaks highly of him). They all make me feel like family. Bottom line, Dr. Kim is AMAZING and I recommend their services! read more

I was referred to C.N.C. by a friend about 5yrs ago, I had been dealing with migraines for years. I had a few adjustments and my migraines started to lessen and now I no longer have any at all. Its also such a plus that both Dr. Kim and Dr. Groves have the additional neurological background as well. The staff are always helpful. They are awesome! and I refer them to anyone looking for excellent chiropractors. read more

Apparently I came into the wrong chiropractors office (different location/owner) but the gentlemen (Dr. grove I believe) & two young ladies (maybe receptionist) whom were in the office at this time, were NOTHING short of professional and provided exceptional hospitality!! They were willing to help call around to find my chiropractor, which I think is amazing. I wish I would've been assigned to their office actually, very clean inside and comfortable setting. Thank you to your team for help! Highly recommend anyone who is assigned there or seeking a location, to check them out! read more

If you're looking for real relief, you need to see a real expert. I found this with Dr. Kim at Chiropractic Neurology Center. Not a massage therapist, or your average chiropractor. Dr. Kim (and her husband Dr. Groves) approach restoring normal body function by thoroughly investigating how your nervous system is operating/functioning. To put it simply, healthy nerve function will ensure that muscle and bone manipulation will maintain it's integrity. I have had an entrapped shoulder for several years, and have realized much improved range of motion and greatly reduced pain within a few short weeks. Thank you Dr. Kim, and the wonderful staff at Chiropractic Neurology Center! read more

This is the best chiropractic office I have ever been. I suffered from sciatic pain for months with no relief after seeing Dr. Groves the first time he explained what was going on gave me an adjustment I was instantly relieved OMG a miracle had been performed. This is most talented husband and wife team I have ever met and all their staff are great!! read more

I been getting treatment from Dr. Groves for years now. Best Chiropractor ever. I always k eave feeling like a champ. Also Libby does the best massages. When I hear someone is in pain I always say "let me know when you wanna feel better, I will send you to my Chiropractor " Nice clean office. Always treated with respect! read more

Shellsea (massage therapist) is amazing! I've had severe pain in my neck after cervical surgery. Shellsea was patient, easily adjusted the pressure applied and listened to my concerns. After 4 treatments I feel better than I have in months. The entire office staff and doctors are attentive and respectful. Calming atomsphere. Excellent office for therapy read more

Ok it has been a while since I've been there but that attests to the fact of how much they (Dr. Kim & Dr. Groves) helped my pain issues. My first visit was unusual and comical if not for the acute pain I was in. My back was hurting/spasming so horribly, I limped in there, stooped over, and had to literally lay on my back on the couch in lobby , to fill out the paperwork. Very embarrassing. When a very pregnant Dr. Kim appeared, bright sunny smile on her face, to call me in for my consult/visit........I thought to myself "whoa now, this woman is adorable but looks like she could have that baby any minute now!" I admit, wondering if she'd be up to the task at hand. I need not have worried , for she was completely efficient and (surprisingly) agile , and I trotted off home with my spine upright. Thus began a great relationship with Chiropractic Neurology and the caring couple who are like no other chiropractors I've ever met. When friends say to me "oh, I'd never want a chiro to 'adjust my neck' " I say to them, these doctors here, do not do anything you don't want them to. They have many ways of doing adjustments and other treatments. Nothing to be afraid of, here ! I consider them as friends, or even family, not just my doctors. I miss them dearly...but that is just a testament to how much they helped get me on the road to better health. You know what, I wanted to say also, that they (especially Dr. Kim, who was the one I most often saw there) made me smile, laugh and always always, I left in a better mood than when I arrived. Their sense of humor , along with the intelligence and caring, well.....it is beyond compare. God bless them, "Humpty Dumpty" :^) read more

Dr. Groves has helped me tremendously. I had two concussions and have been suffering from constant headaches for nearly 2 months. The first time I saw him I went in with a horrible headache and walked out with most of the pain relieved. The next day and it was my first day headache free with out medication since the concussions. He is very knowledgable and kind. His staff is also extremely professional and helpful. Thanks so much!!! read more

Great place to come to friendly staff and amazing doctor. They will take care of you and get you back to how your body should be. What I like most from this place is that the doctor always informs you of what is going to be done and how it's going to aliviate your problem area. Thanks to them I'm once again walking. read more

I'm a work in progress; but via dr Karin kim I see that my right brain is weak. She is helping me with exercises to strengthen my brain which will strengthen my left side . She did a comprehensive evaluation and thorough tests. I'm encouraged through these tests. The office gals are great (maria and Ernestine ). Hopefully with my improvement I'll only have to see Karin once a week and less . read more

I missed my anniversary with Dr. Groves! Six years ago, on August 14, I saw Dr. Groves for the first time. He taught me how to avoid back surgery and each year in August I celebrate another year relatively pain free, still doing yard work, still doing housework and still working out three times a week. To get the full story, take a look at my review posted here on August 14, 2017. I see Dr. Groves a couple of times a month to make sure I stay functioning. Each time, he is able to take care of my current (or long-term) problems and send me on my way, able to still function at 76 years old. Thank you sincerely to the entire staff at the Chiropractic Neurology Center. Love you!! Beverly Cox read more

Been coming here for years. This is a new location for them, but with the same excellent doctors and staff. If you need a chiropractor, this is where you want to go. read more

I have been receiving care from Shad Groves for several years and truly appreciated how I could walk in with extreme pain from muscle spasms and left standing up straight and tall again. When he was out of town I saw Karin Kim instead and found that she too is able to help me improve noticeably each and every visit. They both have the rare combination of knowledge of the skeletal system and the nervous system that no chiropractor I have seen in the past has had and they both explain everything they do. Of course I recommend them to everyone I know that is in pain. read more
