After studying it a bit and asking other knowledgeable people, I decided to give it a try and the results have been very noticeable. Gabriella took time to learn my history and made recommendations based on it, as well as my current training. I have been simply amazed at the results. I have no aches or pains that last any matter of time. Gabriella is great fun to be around and makes the experience enjoyable. She educates me on different areas too, such as stretching and diet. She knows a lot. As my health is very important to me, I plan on incorporating this into my lifestyle! Don't be afraid to try acupuncture, it is not painful in the least!

Dr. Flora has quite literally given me my life back!…read more One year ago, I started experiencing debilitating back pain. Aside from having to stop playing volleyball, I couldn't even sit through a gentle yoga class or go on walks. I went from being a pretty active thirty-something to feeling like I aged 50 years overnight. I proceeded to see doctors, completed seven weeks of PT, went to acupuncture twice a week, and tried a few other holistic modalities. I would sometimes feel relief for a few hours, but it never lasted. Right before seeing Dr. Flora, I was days away from getting an epidural because that was the only option being offered by my doctor. I wasn't enthused about the idea because I was afraid the pain would be numbed and I would re-injure myself without getting to the root of the issue. During my consultation, Dr. Flora reviewed my imaging and actually explained what was happening in my body. I left the appointment feeling hopeful for the first time in almost a year, so I decided it was worth it--despite it not being covered by insurance. I've been coming here for four months now, and I feel like I have my life back. I'm slowly making my way back to all the things I love and look forward to gaining enough strength to try new things as well. My favorite thing about working with Dr. Flora has been how genuine she is. She's a literal Olympic athlete, so she understands more than anyone how important movement is. She is truly on a mission to help her patients, and I feel that every single time I come in to see her and her team. Of course, not everything works for everyone, but if you are in a place where you're as desperate as I was, I couldn't recommend Dr. Flora more. Trust the process and take her advice on the exercises and stretches you should do--it hasn't led me astray yet.

Meh. I was…read morerear-ended last week and went to see Dr. Matt based upon a combo of being in network with my insurance, and great Yelp reviews. I'm not completely inexperienced with chiropractic therapy, but I haven't been a regular client either. I was a little taken aback by my experience. A really nice intern participated in my appointment, and Dr. Matt explained that she was in her final year of chiropractic school. All good. But then it got kind of weird because he used my appointment as a demo, training, and testing ground for the intern--quizzing her on the names of the various parts of my body that were ailing me, quizzing her on how to examine me, and how to treat me. He even went to the whiteboard. He kept telling her "I want to hear you say it!" I felt more like a fly on a wall than the patient in the room. He also had her adjust me initially, and then he came in after with corrective feedback and readjustments to her not-quite-right adjustments. He was also quizzing me at various points, which, cool, I like to learn; but also... it felt more about showcasing his authority than focusing on my care. Mind you, though not badly injured, I was just involved in a car accident, and I started out my appointment by telling them that I saw an Ortho who thought chiropractic care was great, but discouraged any neck manipulation in my particular instance (to which he disagreed). I also iterated that I was especially nervous about neck adjustments. I was never asked if I was ok with an intern adjusting my spine or back--it just happened. The intern went first, and then the doctor followed up with corrections to her adjustments. Granted, nobody manipulated my neck (just my shoulders, back, lower spine), but overall, I felt more like a student, or demo dummy, than a legitimate patient. (Probably because I was using insurance.) I actually thought the combination of the rolling table, ice, and e-stim treatment were really helpful, but overall, it was an awkward appointment. Nobody ever discussed a treatment plan with me or indicated how long, or how many appointments they recommended. In fact, Dr. Matt took off after the lesson, and when I finished the e-stim, the intern just said "Come back next week and see how you feel." Umm, ok. That was it. It wasn't bad. But it definitely didn't feel like a doctor appointment.

Finally i made an appointment with Dr. Aaron Snyder and was very thoroughly evaluated. My recovery was based on strengthening areas of my body which for years even as a yogi were not utilized correctly, and overcompensated for with other areas. It was brought to my attention that my core needed improvement to protect my back. After each session I was provided specific exercises, and these exercises were cumulative and more were added as I progressed. It was also brought to my attention slight changes to my walking style, and the goals established were not just short term recovery, and injury prevention, but also long term body sustainability. It has been six weeks of absolutely no return of any previous issues, and I am continuing the exercise routine at home. This has brought awareness to my areas of weakness, corrected it, and in fact I feel I am stronger. As a middle age person, I feel unconditionally that Dr. Aaron's diagnosis and recommendations will enable me to age better in the future. Anyone who is questioning a functionality with their body would be well advised to consult with Thrive, and determine if the concern can be corrected.

This review is way past due! I've known Pegah for over 12 years. She impressed me as a calm and…read morediscerning person, who was easy to talk with. I didn't know then she was interested in acupuncture. I sensed she had a healing spirit, but had no idea what she might be doing with it. My previous experience with acupuncture was bad. I had an arthritic knee that was making it hard for me to get around. The doctor was highly regarded by my friends, but after his treatment I felt worse than ever. We spoke about that on the phone, and I decided acupuncture just wasn't for me. Then my MD told me to expect knee replacement within the coming months, and require physical therapy for several weeks afterwards. So when Pegah called to tell me she had opened an office in La Jolla, and was doing a study on acupuncture for troublesome knees, I had some initial resistance. She listened to my concerns, answered all my questions, and did so in a professional and assuring manner. There was no rush at all. She heard me out, told me what she would do, and what to expect. Pegah made no extravagant promises, but said she was sure she could help. So I gave it a shot. The treatments were absolutely pain free. In fact, they were extremely relaxing. After a few visits, my knee was markedly better. The pain and weakness was alleviated to the point where I was able to go into physical therapy, which was out of the question before her treatments. Bottom line: It's been something like 5 years since the doctor told me to prepare for surgery and to be out of work for a while. My knee is so much better now, I don't even bring it up at doctor's visits anymore. Late last year, I was stricken with Bell's Palsy. This is hardly a medical emergency, but it freaked me out. The whole left side of my face was paralyzed, and looked like melted wax. Pegah was very kind and patient. Her knowledgeable, nurturing approach settled me down. I felt improvement from the very first visit. Along the way she treated me with moxibustion. Not being much of a woo-woo guy, I didn't understand how that could possibly help, but there's no denying it did. I began to look forward to it. The wind-up to that episode: within weeks, I had considerably better facial mobility. After a couple of months, people who have known me since the turn of the century couldn't tell I had ever been paralyzed. Along the way, Pegah treated me for arthritis in my neck and shoulder, and also pollen allergies. These symptoms were alleviated as well. During each visit, you can expect that she will begin by thoroughly checking out your situation. She'll address any questions or concerns you may have, with no sense of hurry at all. During the treatment, she is very gentle, and continually checks to see how you're doing. I like her private office set-up. It's like a personal visit to a private physician, rather than being processed through a clinic. My visits were covered by the VA, and that's gotta be one of the most exasperating experiences ever for getting paid. Never a murmur from her about it, though I know they didn't make it easy. Rest assured that Pegah doesn't upsell or push anything on you. I had several questions about Chinese herbal preparations, and gave her every opportunity to sell them to me. She declined to endorse the recommendation in my case. Pegah said she'd make it if I really wanted, but she honestly didn't think it would help my condition. She actually recommended other supplements she doesn't even sell. So if a kind, genuine, and caring acupuncturist who will take the time for you and treat your needs, Dr. Pegah is my recommendation. Believe me - I drove by dozens of Chinese medicine practitioners from my home in East County just to get to her office in La Jolla, and I'd do it again.
