I have been a patient of Lori Rodgers for about 25 years now, and even though I've moved around quite a bit over the decades, I always find my way back to her practice. There is simply no one better. Lori is the rare practitioner who combines deep professional expertise with a truly holistic approach to healing. She doesn't just treat symptoms; she understands how everything in the body is connected. Over the years, she has successfully helped me navigate and resolve chronic back, knee, and neck pain that other treatments couldn't quite touch. Beyond her technical skill, she is incredibly kind and has a great sense of humor, which makes every appointment something to actually look forward to. If you are looking for someone knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective, I cannot recommend her highly enough. Bottom line: If you're in pain, go see her! read more

Dr. Rodgers is a knowledgable and amazing healer. She's been helping me with a dislocated arm injury that happened 20 years ago and I felt relief since the first session. She's highly professional, patient, intuitive, and truly listens to all your concerns since the very first session. 1st appointment was a thorough examination that reflected her professionalism and made me feel that she truly cared about my issue. Every session I leave pain free, and floating! Sessions are always on time and her office sends apt. reminders that I love so much. On top of all that, she's a fantastic person, kind, warm, interesting, and elegant. Her office is beautiful and filled with marvelous art that reflects her sensitivity and good taste. I'm beyond thankful for finding such powerful and unique healer... I can't recommend her enough!! read more

Dr Rodgers has been my chiropractor for many decades managing my once debilitating scoliosis keeping my back and body in excellent working form. She is very knowledgeable and has helped with other conditions including a painful knee problem and an intestinal obstruction. She is a very positive and caring person and I am deeply grateful for her sound advice and care over the years I attribute my good health at age 77 in large part to her work with me. read more

Dr. Lori Rodgers healed my neck and shoulder in a matter of minutes. She healed my soaz and also returned my legs to length from one being shorter than the other. I am immensely grateful feeling reincarnated into a whole re-new body without intense pain and with more ease walking, breathing, and thinking. read more

Dr. Rogers is a wonderful provider as well as a wonderful person. I would recommend her highly and trust her implicitly.

After four years of every possible test and treatment for intractable pain zipping down my leg, I literally dreamt of the chiropractor who, 25 years prior in a previous life, had cured me of persistent back pain. The Internet helped me find Dr. Rodgers after all this time. Since that lucky day (for me) when we reconnected I've been relieved of most of the pain that cost me so much sleep and anguish. Dr. Rodgers assures me that those nerves that had been squeezed might well take a wee bit longer to heal entirely, but boy I am one GRATEFUL PATIENT already. My drive to see this healer is an hour and a quarter one way. You might think that's just too much, but I gladly invest this time to continue to be pain free. Great health is a continuing endeavor between patient and practitioner. All I need to do is show up, she does all the "heavy lifting." Haha, you'll see what I mean when you visit her. Thanks Dr. Lori, for making life worth living again. GM read more

It was obvious from the 1st moment I met Dr. Rodgers, she is dedicated to her craft & to her patients' wellness. I am looking forward to my next appointment, which as luck would have it, is in 2 days from now. I am fully confident Dr. Rodgers has the capability to ascertain my malady, & the knowledge & skillset to successfully assist me in correcting my issue(s). read more

Dr Rodgers is an intuitive healer who uses her attuned senses plus chiropractic and medical training to support your body's recovery and sustained health. I have been getting treatment over the last year and a half for several long term injuries and she keeps my body in balance and I feel better than ever with her support. Thank you Dr Rodgers! read more

I had back surgery in 1987. Needless to say I was left with chronic pain, I have always been frightened of Chiropractors, I had a bad experience once, a friend told me about Lori, so I made an appointment. Dr. Rodgers was gentle, healing And very warm with me! She changed my opinion of Chiropractics that day. She was honest and told me, it would take time before I would see and feel a change, she said it was a process and She was correct. I have been going for almost a year and I walk better, stand taller and my pain level has dropped to a 4 from an 8 what a joy! She is a caring person and is not motivated by $$$$ only she came to my house free of charge quite a few times to help my fiancé when he had a heart attack and stroke! I credit Lori's treatments to his health improving both body and mind! Thank You Lori for all you do!!!!! read more

I was going through a really hard time in my life and my back was killing me. Went to see Lori who took a lot of money and helped not at all. At one point I started to cry (yup things were that bad for me). Guess what? She did nothing, said nothing, just took her hands off me and waited. Amazing. Nothing comforting to say . . . . I felt she and her entire office were a big front for the rich -- big expensive office, extensive equipment, Lori all dolled up in super high heels. She massaged my back with her thumbs, stroking upwards and suggested someone at home do this. Yup, big healing. Anyway, while there things felt a little better, but afterwards it was the same as when I came in. Total waste of money, and just all around an unpleasant experience. read more

I pulled a muscle in my lower back two weeks ago. I saw a chiropractor I like who told me I was twisted so she aligned me and I felt better for a week then the pain came back and when I could not get an appointment with the same chiropractor I decided to try Dr. Rodgers. Her approach is very similar to another chiropractor I saw years ago. She's very thorough in studying the uneven hips, shoulders, and neck and I appreciate she even checks oxygen level. I felt so much more open in my head when I left there. My lower back is still in pain but I'm sure it will work itself out once I see her on the follow up appointment next week. read more

After being diagnosed with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome last year, I was referred to Dr. Rodgers to get my joints and spine in alignment. I was skeptical that any treatment would help with the daily pain I've experienced my whole life, as I'd seen other chiropractors and specialists in the past. It's been almost 6 months that I've been treated by Dr. Rodgers and my daily pain level has been reduced by at least 80%. She is thorough, extremely gentle, and her neurological and holistic focus ensures that adjustments are tailored to my unique body. I'm learning what it feels like to wake up and go through my day without debilitating pain and stiffness - something I thought I'd have to live with for the rest of my life. Dr. Rodgers is a blessing in my life and her work has been miraculous. This review cannot express the extent of my gratitude. If you have chronic pain due to EDS or any chronic illness or injury, go see Dr. Rodgers. It's life changing and you won't be disappointed! read more

Dr. Rodgers is an amazing holistic healer. She has a very gentle way of chiropractic adjustments. I have appreciated this since my very first visit, following an auto accident several years ago. Dr. Rodgers has a way of getting to the source of pain and relieving tension in the spine, such that overall stress levels decline. She is extremely knowledgeable, bringing other healing modalities into her practice, such as highly specialized cranial sacral therapy. She is truly gifted. I have also recommended Dr. Rodgers to several friends and neighbors, all of whom have reported the same high level of professionalism, care and attention, with outstanding results. I so appreciate the care she provides. read more

I've had the absolute pleasure of working with Dr. Lori since June of 2014- I love, love, love her sweet, sassy spirit and energy. I came in originally with a numbness in my leg which she worked on and completely fixed in about 4 months. At the initial consultation she pointed out my shallow breathing which fed into my anxiety issues. Now, I try to go weekly (even after she told me 2 times a month was enough) since I always leave walking on air, feeling so much more alive and refreshed after she works on my neck, back, left knee (that started cracking after a while), and works my jaw from a back 3rd degrees malocclusion from TMJ. She works on mind, body, with a strong neurology approach and is incredibly knowledgeable about vitamins, minerals also. Also, if you read the 1 star review and click on the other reviews this person posted, you will see mostly 1-2 star reviews from an obviously negative individual.. Run (if you can) don't walk to her and get warm healing sooner than later! read more

Dr. Rodgers is a miracle worker!!!! I can go in there with a cold and leave feeling refreshed, healthier, and on the path to a speedy recovery! Not only is she great at what she does, but she has such a warm and caring soul that makes the work she does even better as well as enjoyable to be with her. She is full of knowledge and has a variety of loose leaf tea for sale that has also always proven to be helpful. Even if you don't have a cold or severe/moderate pain, the adjustment experience will make you feel relaxed and your body refreshed. read more

Lori is wonderful... She has been adjusting my back and neck for years, since I had alignment issues after playing a few years of college ice hockey. If you're an athlete and want your body to remain strong long after you finish competing, I highly recommend her. read more

I agree wholeheartedly with Jasmine A. I too am a patient of Dr Rodgers. I have been to a few chiropractors in my life and Dr. Rodgers has been the most helpful with my health problems. For example: today I had a session with her and told her I was congested in my head and my chest. She worked her magic and within 3 hours I didn't feel sick anymore. She has a quiet and calming demeanor and always tells it like it is. I highly recommend her to anyone serious about getting healthy. read more

My mom and I had an amazing experience with Dr. Lori Rodgers. We were visiting from out of town and she squeezed us in so we could fix ourselves up. She was incredibly thorough and both my mom and I felt immediate relief after our adjustments. We both wish that we had her closer to our homes. Cannot recommend her enough! read more

Dr. Lori is one of those healers who you can tell had a calling. She has done so much for my whole family. I have had a myriad of physical complaints in the past years, some severe, some chronic. Her caring approach is also grounded in an amazing knowledge of systems of human anatomy. I am so grateful for how Dr. Lori has helped me get healthier and stronger over the past couple of years that I could go on and on with praises. I can only say that being a patient of Dr. Lori has done me a world of good, and I highly, unequivocally recommend her chiropractic practice to anyone looking for the real deal. read more

As an Operating Engineer with 37 years in the industry my life literally depends on the care i get from a chiropractor. Operating Earth Movers for that many years takes its toll on the body. I was fortunate to find Dr. Lori Rodgers early in my career as an Apprentice in the early 1980s, After putting me back together and completely eliminating my pain I lost touch with her as i felt confident i could continue my trade without the need for continous care well I suffered for that bad decision. At that time I wasnt hip to the subtle differences between one Chiro and the next. I just needed the pain to go away fast. I really didnt respect my body i had a terrible diet and wasnt aware how that impacted how my body felt. 30 years later, and I was living with pain from head to toe, I just figured it was my life and it was normal. A friend of mine suggested Dr. Lori Rodgers at Ala Vita Healing Center in Sausalito. I figured why not give it a try. I was surprised to learn that Dr. Rodgers was the same one who treated me 30 years prior when my career had just begun. Although now she has her own practice. Her initial exam was more thorough then any other i have ever had, she really was genuinely concerned with not only how my body felt but also what dietary changes i could make that would only better serve my body and my over all health and well being. I know I know drink water, I hear it all day at work. But she explain to me the effect water has on the muscle system. My entire life i have had pretty quick mood swings. No matter how many anger management programs I attended or how many times I quick drinking coffee or tried meditation. I was still susceptable to mood swings. One of the first things Dr. Rodgers noticed was some Cranial issues and oxygen to my brain issues. She detected head trauma and mentioned this. I had no memory of any head trauma. But she did her cranial technique on me and i felt so great afterwards. After several months I began to remember various instances where i did in fact take very hard blows to my head. I never knew that really mattered. But Lori said it was most likely the cause of my mood swings which i eventually confessed to having. She could better explain the head how its supposed to be flexible and the outside barometric pressures effect on a locked up head trauma head. All I know is she turned this roaring Lion into a purring Lion. She began focusing on my feet as well, she fit me with custom soles for my shoes then worked on my knees back neck and like i said cranium. The relief i got was immediate, and It would come back but after seeing her 4x each month to start slowly the pain stayed away longer then longer until it was completely gone all the time. What took 37 years of abuse on my body took her maybe less than 12 months to fix. But I knew the importance of maintaning how great i felt. So I continued my treatments and After 5 straight years I still see her 2x per month. After all I still work 50-60 hours Operating Earth Movers My body still takes a daily beating So I require her care. I would imagine that most people do not put the stress upon their bodies that i do. But I know what my body needs and pain isn't it. Over the past 5 years I have met so many people in her waiting room, from all over the country and even a few from out of the country who make a point of taking their entire families to get her treatments. I have seen children who suffered from head aches unable to attend school, suddenly be enrolled full time in school after being treated by Dr. Rodgers. What many of the people have in common i have met in her office is that many say they could not find help any where else, they tried all the traditional Medical Treatments and ended up getting the relief they sought only after being treated by Dr. Rodgers. I am sure she will not appreciate what im going t say now but she is the only Dr. I have ever seen that takes emergencies on Sundays and Saturdays, although she is closed i have seen her make a rare exception. And imagine She is not an ER Doctor, she is a Chiropractor Neurologist. That Must be experienced to be appreciated. Anyone who HAS RECEIVED HER CARE and followed her guidance will agree, She is the best around and those who travel here from across the city country or internationally must know something to keep coming back. Many i have met in her waiting room have been seeing her for many years. My wish, is not to have any one lean on my review. My wish is for any one seeking above and beyond results in their health care I hope you find it. I did Ala Vita Healing Center. 1000 Bridgeway. Sausalito CA 94965 read more

My sister is the patient. She drove once a week from San Jose to Sausalito to see Dr. Rodgers. Her health and her well being has improved so much that she does not have to go as often but does not hesitate to make her maintenance appointments. Dr. Rodgers has become an important person in her life and mine as well. When I am in the country I absolutely take the time to see her. She is a is everything we want and love in a healer, practitioner, chiropractor and person. read more

Dr. Lori Rodgers is everything you hope a chiropractor would be. She's knowledgable, effective, efficient, radiant and kind. As a professional dancer, I've been around my fair share of chiropractors, and Dr. Rodgers certainly stands out as one of the best. She takes a holistic approach, which I deeply respect and trust. I feel safe going into her office and know that I'll walk out feeling much better - physiologically, emotionally and mentally. read more

I had some serious back and neck issues from rowing and Lori was great at helping me recover. She is always great to work with - friendly, gentle and she really cares. Would highly recommend her. read more

I am an emergency physician. I have gone to Dr. Rogers for many years now, and she is by far the best Chiropractor I know. Her touch is soft but knowing, and she has a great intuitive sense. She has healed my aches and unjuries many times. I would highly recommend her for all things Chiropractic. read more

DYNAMIC RESULTS, after first session!!! Highly recommend Dr Rodgers. She corrected foundational structure issues no one else had yet discovered with me. She saved my honeymoon! I am considering return trips from my home in Texas just for a maintenance session. Thank you, Dr Rodgers! I appreciate you, Jan F. read more

I hurt my back 25 years ago and nothing helped. I went to Lori for a few weeks and felt perfect. I hurt it again 12 years ago and could barely move the pain was excruciating and the MDs or PTs could not help at all-- then I remembered Lori and after a few weeks treatment with her I was back to normal. My husband also hurt his back and had the same positive experience with Lori. I moved to Massachusetts several years ago. hurt my back again several weeks ago on May 20th and have been following all the MD and PT's recommendations- ice, Ibuprofen, exercises, etc.- and although it will feel somewhat better at times, suddenly the pain is unbearable and I can barely function. I am actually considering flying to California just to see her. I am desperate! (Maybe I'll offer to fly her to Massachusetts?) read more

BEST HEALING EXPERIENCE EVER. I limped into Dr. Lori Rodgers office, in so much chronic low back and sciatic pain my life had literally stopped. After the first session I felt much better and within a few sessions, I knew I was on my way to restored health. Dr. Rodgers has the magic combination of science and heart that makes for a true healer. I have tried many healing modalities for my back issues and until I went to Dr. Rodgers had lost hope of ever really feeling well. I had gone to another highly rated chiropractor and was in treatment for a year and a half. With Dr. Rodgers I experienced more RESULTS in a few sessions than I had the entire time with the other doctor. I have gone from being afraid I was going to be an invalid to enjoying increasingly long walks with my dog, being able to sit through a movie and even traveling. After a session, I leave feeling great and I look ten years younger. Not only does Dr. Rodgers deliver results as a doctor, she's a lovely person and creates a beautiful, calming sanctuary in her treatment center. read more
