Dr. Weddell is not your run of the mill chiropractor! I'd had a pretty badly broken wrist. The…read morebones had healed, and I'd been to physical therapy which was helping a little with some of my range of motion, which was still pitiful. Dr. Weddell zeroed in on the stuck places, and with such glee! I usually holler when something very stuck comes loose, because it usually hurts. I can't say it was painless, but all I could do was laugh! He was like a giant dousing rod, geiger counter, a dog chasing a squirrel, and yes, there's a sort of sound he makes that is not what I would call "grunting", more like a battle cry. In just a few minutes, I had 60% of my motion back! He REALLY knows what he's doing, and seems to care a great deal about relieving suffering. I have a functioning right hand now, thanks to him. I've been to many different kinds of chiropractors. Dr. Weddell is absolutely one of the best.

Gary Weddell is part of the Chico Chiropractic Center, therefore a lot of information and reviews…read moreabout him might appear under that heading as well. That said, I've written an updated review there about a recent billing problem that occurred which can be read here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/chico-chiropractic-center-chico?hrid=QtTZcGAGbUgykUqzRHFwCA&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) Or read on for a C&P of the review: Fraudulent billing practices. Haven't seen the chiro in over a year and a claim (which was never sent to me) went into my insurance company (who paid). I contacted the insurance company who investigated, reversed the claim (denied), and subsequently received a printed out statement from the billing company (they use an outside service) with some nonsense about how my name looked very close to the name of another patient who *was* in. Fine. However, a secondary claim came through five days *after* this incident, again which the insurance company paid on, this time for $25 MORE than the first claim (for services I did *not* receive. As Edward G. noted clear back in 2014, billing is a complete and total nightmare with this center. We experienced the same problems when we were being seen there a little over a year ago (see review under Gary Weddell). The chiropractor is good, the billing is worse than horrific, it's criminal in every sense of the definition. Hopefully the chiro will note these reviews and clean house. The billing agency is Advantage Medical Billing. PS: Just received call from Jennifer at Advantage Medical Billing (after calling in to file grievance with insurance company) stating that it was a "clerical" error. My response was that it is a fraudulent claim given that the second bill (supposedly again input incorrectly and intended for the actual recipient of the bill) was twenty-five more dollars than the initial claim, which is fraud, plain and simple. (Also see the review for Advantage Medical Billing just posted).

After our session in which she preformed this therapy on the front part of my body, even though it was supposed to be the whole body, she claimed it would have been too much on my whole body, I was in more pain for over a week after treatment then before treatment.

I would give this therapist no stars if I could. I had a massage this afternoon with Isaac. I sent…read moremy intake form a week ahead of time along with a message on it and he never even took the time to read any of it until I came to my appointment. Wasting 10 min. of my massage time. When the massage was over I realized that he shorted me 7 min. of a scheduled hour massage. We started at 2:25 and ended at 3:18. I arrived on time. Had he looked at my intake information before I arrived we could have discussed any questions or concerns via email, text or phone, or as the massage was starting to commence and the massage would have begun and ended on time. The massage was mediocre at best. Hence, his lack of experience of only 3 years. The points of pain that I told him bothered me more than others, he treated just like any other part of the body that had no issues accept for my shoulders, and sadly, that was mediocre at best as well. He needs to pay attention to his clients when they speak to him regarding issues of concern. I have had thousands of massages of many modalities, and all of my massage therapists are seasoned professionals and have the experience and are well trained to deal with all of my issues. They are very common issues to the well trained seasoned professional. I am trained myself in massage therapy in many modalities so I am well versed in what is expected during a massage therapy session and unfortunately this one did not measure up. Definitely go to someone with at least 10 or more years of experience and to someone who does not think that neurological and joint issues are uncommon when you come for a massage, like Issac does. Moving on. Hey Candi: I'm not going to spend much time on my response to you because I already said the the truth regarding what happened before and during my massage session. The bottom line is he was asked to a medium pressure Swedish massage and stay away from my neck. We spoke of my issues briefly but they were not the prime focus of the massage. I gave him the basics. He should have looked at my info beforehand in case he had any questions. If I needed him to lighten up on the pressure I told him to do so and it was still mediocre at best. It was not rocket science. FYI again, I did not get extra time. The session was done 7 minutes early and I was there on time. You said it yourself, he couldn't give me extra time since he had someone right after me. I finally found a professional masseuse familiar with all of my issues and we are a great match. I hope you find massage therapists that can handle people with various issues whether they turn out to be muscular skeletal, neurological, neuromuscular and the like. Your business will be better for it and I hope you and your massage therapists learn to take criticism as a positive tool. It's called being a grown up, instead of a child. Have a nice day!
