The quality of service Dr. Heckard provides is beyond amazing. He helped me out when I was feeling defeated with sciatic pain and nothing seemed to work. My mother actually recommended me to go to Dr. Heckard. And if I'm being honest, it was probably the best thing I could've ever done. He helped me with my sleepiness a.k.a. low iron and with my sciatic pain. I also want to mention he has a very professional and amazing receptionist that goes above and beyond! Both of them make your experience amazing and most of all you can tell that they actually care. I recommend this chiropractor to anyone that has pain or simply wants to get realigned. He is truly amazing. read more

I was treated by Dr Heckard July 3rd and again July 8, 2024. Dr Heckard has a modality unlike any doctor I've seen. He's helping me with the effects of bullying I received at work. I'll be returning for more allergy remedy. The atmosphere is clean and comfortable. Dr Heckard and his front desk assistant are kind and professional. I Recommend you experience his work.

I have been around the block many many times. Chronic but manageable issues from construction. I need what I need when I need it. I don't need someone racking my spine and cracking my neck when I'm in pain because my L4 is out... Dr. Heckard is extremely thorough and professional. He is like a wizard. Not sure how he knows everything that is going on with the body but he does. He cares about and treats the whole person. Highly recommend. read more

Such an amazing chiropractor!! Cured my TMJ headaches and jaw pain. I went to multiple doctors and dentist but the only thing they prescribed me was ibuprofen and muscle relaxants that did nothing for me(as well as just relax like that is possible living in this stressful times!!) I felt like I was never going to get rid of the pain, but I was so lucky to find this chiropractor that healed me from the first treatment my pain was almost gone and by the second treatment I was completely pain free. If you are seeing this review and suffer from TMJ definetely visit this chiropractor!! read more

My first visit was today 3.8.22. I found Dr. Heckard via a google search for a Chiropractor in the Napa area. I was impressed with the positive reviews, and booked an appointment. His practice is clean, inviting, and smells relaxing. I enjoyed sitting down and talking with Dr. Heckard, he's knowledgeable, professional, and easy to communicate with. Within seconds I knew that I was in the right place. while he was working on me I had an emotional reaction, and for sure cried off all my makeup during our session, it was therapeutic, and I felt safe. I also really enjoyed his sense of humor. I finished my appointment and I couldn't wait to post a review. It was an amazing experience, and I can't wait to go back next week. He also was able to determine that I have some adrenal issues, which I had thought based on my body and research that I've done. I purchased the stander process Adrenal Complex he recommended, and I'm excited to start using that. I'm working on my health this year, as I've passed the age of 40 everything seems to slow down, not to mention that I have lots of emotions hidden inside. Today, I felt hopeful and am looking forward to working with Dr. H a lot more in the future. read more

Wow-I didn't realize Bruce thinks this review is false...not false at all. I've been to alternative chiropractors who were amazing at what they did......dr Bruce, however, totally 100% missed the mark. I went to him over a year ago and he probably does not remember me bc it's been a while and I only saw him once. Once was enough. He did nothing for my ear. His treatments were not helpful and that might be hard information for him to swallow but it did literally nothing for me. I'm glad I haven't been back. What a joke why would I "lie" about my experience here simply bc it's not what dr Bruce thinks it should be. And no I don't live in Napa I did something called travel to the area. And I do agree with that other women who mentioned the experience is really awkward. You are asked to put a hospital gown on and only keep underwear on, then he gets up around your back with the door closed. It's just weird. I don't know how else to describe but I'm thankful I haven't been back AND I cannot believe that any "dr" out there would say someone was lying about going to see them. read more

DR. HECKARD IS AMAZING. i have been dealing with lower back pain and grinding my teeth for 18 years... i don't know how he did it but after the very first session i stopped grinding my teeth and my lower back pain has subsided. my body was a twisted up cord and he managed to untwist everything. i have not felt this good in years. i cannot day enough wonderful things about dr. heckard. i have receded countless friends to him and they have found great relief as well. if you are in constant pain, or need help healing from trauma, Heckard is your man. stop what you are doing, pick up the phone and make an appointment! read more

I wish that I could give this place a big fat "ZERO." Stay away from this chiropractic doctor! I wouldn't even call him a doctor, maybe a pervert! This office may seem like an aesthetically pleasing and serene place to go, but don't be fooled. When filling out the paper work to see the chiropractor for the 1st time, you are required to sign a sheet that says that you consent to wear a hospital gown and take off ALL of your clothes (including underwear)! It goes on to say that women who are menstruating can wear underwear. This was disconcerting. I've NEVER had to do this at any chiropractic office that I've been to. When I asked the receptionist about it and told her that I wasn't comfortable with this policy, she said, "Well, we ask that you do because the doctor does healing energy and it doesn't work with certain colors of clothes on." When I asked her what she meant, she said, "There are colors that will not allow him to do the "healing" work. So, if you must absolutely wear underwear, it can only be white or flesh toned." What a bunch of crap! How violating and uncomfortable! I didn't stick around long enough to even see the doctor. I literally ran out the door to my car. This is the kind of stuff that gives chiropractic care a bad name. Ladies, I've seen a few different chiropractors in my day and have never come across this. It is NOT NORMAL!! It is certainly not necessary to get naked under a gown. The chiropractor I see is MORE than able to work his methods when fully clothed. There is a method, however, that is skin-on-skin work, wear you were a gown with your bra and your pants on. They only open the gown in the area that needs adjusting. I've had this done too, and it is not violating whatsoever. read more

Dr. Heckard is amazing!! He is always on point with everything. I've been in and out of the hospital and doctors office, they knew what I had but didn't know how to best help me. Dr. Heckard knew right away how to help me and now I feel amazing! Would definitely recommend him. read more

Dr.Heckard is Amazing!!I took my 7 year old son because of a tick in his neck and saw huge improvements!! I made an appointment for myself and lookinf forward to great results:) read more

i felt crippled with my lower back, as it went out from just putting my sock on. Never been to chiropractor but was recommended to go to non force. I needed soon. Dr Heckards office got me in Quickly. After first evaluation and adjustment I felt human again. He noted I have enough back problems for 3 people and it will take a few visits to remedy all of them. After a few visits I feel much better. I would highly recommend him, and will continue in future periodically to keep my back aligned. read more

I truly cannot say enough about Dr. Heckard. He has seriously changed my life! I have struggled with many health issues most of my life and as a 58 year old woman, things were seemingly getting worse the older I got. Thankfully I was referred to him by another Napan and I am so very grateful! In just a few months, I am improving by leaps and bounds and am now very hopeful that I will overcome all of these struggles. Dr. Heckard has a quirky and upbeat personality that I so appreciate! His right hand woman, Liz, who runs the office is equally as amazing and I honestly don't know what I would do without them. Liz is so good at her job and not only runs the office smoothly but will support you at every turn. She can completely explain Dr. Heckard's findings to you on laymen's terms and explain in detail. Thank you both from the bottom of my heart! I advise anyone who has any health issue, whether emotional, physical, psychological or any combination, let their intuition guide you to a better life. You will not regret it. read more

I want to thank Dr. Bruce Heckard for being "our family doctor" for over 20 years. He is an amazing man with a gift. As a nurse, I see how the normal medical doctor prescribes medications to band-aide the problem. It is just they way they are trained. I appreciate the time he takes to get to the root of the problem and try to fix it in a homeopathic way. Dr. Heckard is not afraid to say, "I can't fix this," and suggest seeing a Medical Doctor. He tries to understand how the body is responding to the problem and then tries to work with it, be it emotions, parasites or just pain. He has helped keep me working as a RN for 25 years. Thanks again for all you do. Jody D. Brady R.N. read more

Due to a traumatic fall and serious injury to my tailbone when I was a child, ii have suffered with constipation my entire life.. and I am now 55 years old. I have been to several holistic doctors that didn't provide any relief. A friend recommended Dr. Heckard and when I went to see him he used Directional Non-Force Technique and tested me for what supplements would support his work. In only 4 treatments along with taking the supplements I no longer suffer from constipation, for the first time in my life! So, if you are suffering with a health issue that has never been resolved in your lifetime, I highly recommend you give Dr. Heckard a call!!......Elizabeth, Vallejo,CA read more

I've been seeing Dr. Heckard for years. I live in Oakland and make the trip to see him because he is best chiropractor I've ever seen (and I've seen a few!). He consistently undercuts the apparent problem and gets to the root of what's going on. That includes general body issues as well as bones out of alignment. He has helped me big-time over the years. I cannot recommend him enough. read more

I had an incredibly healing experience the first time that I went to see Doctor Heckard last summer. He was able to detect deeply rooted health issues that I've had for years (some I've had my whole life and didn't know about) and start me on a new regimen with specific supplements and areas of focus. I am tremendously grateful for the analysis and treatment that Dr. Heckard has provided me with. He is extremely gifted at what he does and is very talented and intuitive. The best chiropractor I have ever seen, by far. A visit to him is truly one of the very best things you can do for your health. read more

I will never go to anyone else as long as Dr. Heckard is around!! He not only helped alleviate my vertigo symptoms but my acid reflux too! I have a VERY sensitive spine and neck from a bad car accident in 1992 and he is the only chiro that has been able to adjust me pain free with incredible results!! He has also helped our daughter sleep through the night for the first time since she was born! Helped her with her stomach and constipation and continues to help with any headaches or neck pain! He is more than a chiropractor and natural path healer, he is a miracle worker!!! I highly recommend him! read more

I've been going to Dr. Heckard for just over a year and have recommended him to many. I appreciate his whole body approach to treating my chronic back and neck pains. read more

I have been seeing several chiropractors in the last 30 years. Bruce Heckard is the best of them all. He is very professional and has a good sense of humor which makes it a pleasure for me during my appointments. Without his adjustments, I would have a very difficult time getting through the day. I highly recommend anyone to try Dr. Heckard for their chiropractic needs. read more

I have seen amazing healing with people I have brought to Doc for years and years using techniques he has mastered for people that could not get resolution to health issues. The body needs to have a whole healing and only the body knows how to heal it. I personally see nothing good in most Pharmaceutical medications. Doctors give them for pain in your back or because you are having a hard moment. Dr. Heckard is a non-force Chiropractor and if you have never tried this method of Chiropractic you owe it to your body to do it and that will be the start of your body healing, but it does not stop there. Doc with work his way through your body with the Body Code System, Emotional Code, and Digestive Protocol to get to what is wrong. Doc has a gift that I have never seen in any other practitioner and I highly recommend that you go to his website and learn or go see him and find out for yourself. read more

I started seeing Dr. Heckard 20 years ago after I injured my back. I was considering disability at the age of 27 because I was in such pain. I couldn't even put my socks and underwear on in the morning! I started seeing Dr. Heckard 3 times a week and the relief was immediate. I gradually improved with an occasional "fix" when something got out of whack. Eventually I have been able to visit only once or twice a year for a tune-up. Dr. Hockel addressed my whole body including testing me for supplements that might support my healing. He even cleared me for an allergy I didn't know I had and I immediately felt better. I have since referred him to several friends and family members and everyone has had good results. He is a gifted chiropractor and holistic healer. He is also amazing at unresolved or undiagnosed problems. Some of his treatments are unusual and it is hard to tell it is doing anything, but follow his advice and you will be amazed at the results. read more
