I can't recommend Dr. Mike Espinosa enough. He's incredibly patient, takes his time during each visit, and genuinely cares about your well-being. I've been to two other chiropractic practices in the past where I felt rushed and like they didn't really listen to me, so this was a completely different experience. With Dr. Espinosa, I never felt rushed and he really listens to what's going on with your body. After seeing him, I noticed a real difference. My hip and back pain improved significantly. I'm now able to work (the source of my back pain) without discomfort and even get back into the gym pain free. TLDR, highly recommend if you're looking for someone who is patient, doesn't feel rushed, and delivers results. read more

I have been coming to Total Healing & Wellness since I lived in Torrance in 2022. When my husband and I moved to Pasadena, we were stoked that there is another location here. We continue treatment here once a week and couldn't be happier with the result, maintenance, and advice that were shared. My husband and I primarily got treatment with Dr. Mike Espinoza. The staff and students are very friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend to come get chiropractor treatment here. Did I mentioned there is acupuncture as well. I call this place my me time bcs I know I'll feel 100% better after. Thanks Dr. Mike & staff for providing a great service and treatment. read more

I first saw Dr. Dustin after my accident in January, and I can't say enough great things about him. Not only did he help me recover from my injuries, but he also took the time to show me stretches and exercises I could do at the gym to keep progressing. As someone who works out daily, I really appreciated that he understood my goals and even helped ease me back into my routine when the time was right. Now that I've finished treatment, I'm so happy with the progress I've made, but also a little sad because I'll miss seeing him and the whole staff. He's excellent at what he does, always made me feel heard and respected, and often had me laughing during our visits. I'm truly grateful for his care and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a chiropractor who goes above and beyond! read more

this was my first time going to see a chiropractor & i was a little nervous but Dr. Dustin Durke talked me through it & helped relieve my pain! aside from his awesome skills, he also has a caring heart for all his patients! definitely recommend !!! read more

For my first time seeing an acupuncturist, Dr. Yoon Park was very compassionate and knowledgeable about treatment options. After struggling with upper thigh strain, she took time to explain everything she was about to do to relieve the pain. After the second session, most of my pain had already disappeared. The office environment is peaceful and contemporary. They are quick to respond and open to answering any questions about treatments, pricing, and insurance coverage. Highly recommend! read more

I've been going to Dr Mike for over a year and sometimes treated by the other doctors there too. Not only are they are skilled, but you can tell they genuinely care too. Dr Mike takes the time to ask questions about my lifestyle and profession to know what may be the cause of certain tension and recurring issues. What blows me away is that sometimes he finds tension spots I didn't even know existed. Every session feels personalized, and I walk out of the office feeling like a brand-new person! I look forward to my monthly visits and I can't stop recommending them to all of my friends and family!! read more

Dr. Michael Espinoza is awesome in his work of relieving tension. He's so friendly and makes sure you get what you need. He is very personal and listens to your concerns. The combination of cupping therapy and adjustments helps with my overall pain. Personally I get a lot of stress related pain on my left shoulder close to the neck. I typically get massages to help with the pain, but sometimes when I feel like a massage just isn't working, I go to Dr. Espinoza for the cupping and adjustments. I feel like with one visit it reduces the pain to half. Of course to keep the pain from increasing I will schedule periodic appointments. I've seen Dr. Espinoza close to a year now and each time I walk out, I feel better than when I came in. - Office setting is nice and clean with a relaxing atmosphere. - Adjustment table is sanitized before each patient. read more

I used to cry from the slightest touch, but he's there for you every step of the way and you will definitely see improvement. read more

I first met them at my gym, F45, as they were giving free chiropractic mini sessions. Because of Dr. Durke's attentiveness to my neck pain needs, I decided to give them a try. I've been consistently seeing them for chiro as well as acupuncture for 2 months now and I'm noticing more improvement. Although they are out of network, I continue to see them because of the quality service. Would definitely recommend. read more

It's always scary when choosing a new provider but Dr. Espinoza and his office made it so easy!

I'm extremely happy with my visit and will definitely be coming back for my routine adjustments! read more

I've had a lingering dull pain in my shoulder for months and it's been rough trying to do lifts at the gym. I've been to a bunch of places trying to get it massaged out and worked on but it just wouldn't go away. Dr. Durke, I just want to say thank you for getting rid of it! I can finally lift heavy again! If you have something like what I had and it won't go away go see Dr. Durke because he hit every point that felt off. You guys have no idea how annoying this dull pain was.

So its been 6years since I last reviewed Dr. Tiffany Choy's office. And I have no complaints. Since my last review, she moved to her own office in South Pasadena which looks welcoming and nice! I cant have just anyone adjust my neck as Im very sensitive and prone to a headache BUT Dr Choy nails my adjustments every time! My problems tend to be around my traps and neck area as thats where I hold all my stress but after soft tissue work and cupping I feel so much better. After being treated by Dr. Tiffany for YEARS her experience and knowledge in techniques have grown so much and Im thankful to have her as my Chiropractor for my adjustments and injury needs. My Parents also get treated by her and they have no complaints. Shes super fun, knowledgable and if you need an adjustment or treatment for sports injury she's your doctor. :) read more

Dr. Choy is an amazing healer! I have been going to her since 2018. I would always limp into her office with either hip flexor, knee, hamstring or ankle pain.

I have so much trust in Dr. Choy's healing process that I have scheduled my new born son to see her in a couple of weeks. read more

As a dancer, fitness instructor, and massage therapist, my body is beyond grateful for Dr. Choy! As an athlete and former personal trainer she understands the body in a different way. Dr. Choy is literally a life saver, she puts me back together on a regular basis. I like to say she beats me up with kindness. The sessions are intense (lots of soft tissue work pre/post adjustment with cups and a graston tool if needed) but that's what my body needs and craves. I am beyond grateful for her. read more

I have been actively seeing Dr. Choy twice a month for 7+ months and the results of our sessions have been very rewarding. I was referred to Dr. Choy by a friend who is also a professional in the Chiropractic Community, which I am extremely grateful for. Prior to seeing Dr. Choy I was seeing another chiropractor for a few months. While their adjustments were helpful they never addressed any of the muscles or soft tissues, which was curious to me because I thought that if I didn't address the adjacent muscles then the adjustment would end up reverting back to its misalignment. It wasn't until talking to my chiropractor friend that she informed me that I was seeing a doctor who practiced a type of chiropractic care that believed adjustments would fix the muscles, the opposite of what I was looking for. Dr. Choy's practice focuses on adjustments and the soft tissues, sports injury care/prevention. The office building isn't difficult to find, as it is adjacent to the road, where I found street parking. I believe there is parking in the back, but I haven't needed to use it yet. The office itself was located on the first floor a few steps from the main entrance, which might make a big difference for those patients who were unable to walk extended distances. The practice has (3) private rooms in addition to the reception area that has adequate spacing. Accessibility and ease were the key aspects of this office's location. My experience with Dr. Choy and her staff has been nothing but exceptional and professional. From the very beginning Dr. Choy took her time to listen to my concerns and any ailments I was experiencing. She was calm during our initial discussion, but you could tell she had an strong passion for her practice and assisting her patients. Over the course of the past few months we've worked through numerous areas where I've developed pain from exercising, sports, and my significant commute (3 hours each day). What has continued to impress me with Dr. Choy is that each and every time when she does her assessment of the muscles and the joints, her movements are swift, but confident. She seems to instinctively know which muscle groups and which joints are the epicenter of pain and need to be addressed. There isn't any hesitation or guessing in her assessment. My sessions with Dr. Choy vary, but typically revolve around adjustments, cupping, acupressure, or targeted muscle release. I've seen tremendous benefits to my posture and overall lower/non-existent pain levels from these sessions. Dr. Choy takes great care in her adjustments with her swift/confident moves. With her I have my neck, spine, and sacrum adjusted. At no point was I worried, uncomfortable, or experienced pain when she adjusted the various areas along the spine. She is methodical and ensures that the patient is aware of each step she proceeds with. Dr. Choy utilizes a guasha tool and electric massage device to hit specific muscle groups. Prior to seeing Dr. Choy I had no experience with cupping, but the various sessions I've had with her prove that there is benefit to this technique. The cupping she uses is suctioned by a device after the cup is place, therefore no fire is required. Cupping is not painful, there may be some pressure like sensation (like a vacuum cleaner) that you will experience, but the benefit of this type of cupping is that the amount of suction is adjustable with each pump. If the cupping has too much suction, Dr. Choy can release the cup, but I've never gotten to this point in my session where I needed a cup released. One of the elements that I particularly appreciate about Dr. Choy is that she is truly focused on the patient's recovery. After each of my sessions, Dr. Choy recommends some stretches or ways to target release a muscle group that I can work on between our sessions. I continue to visit Dr. Choy because I've reached the point where I'm in preventative maintenance mode and want to ensure that I do not slip back into my poor posture or lackluster spine health. Visiting Dr. Choy continues to be one of the best investments I've made for myself since I moved here to Los Angeles two years ago. In particular, my long commute constantly gives me problems, but visits to Dr. Choy help keep me in shape until I'm able to complete the project I'm currently working on that is creating this commute. I always enjoy my visits to Dr. Choy as she has a very gregarious and welcoming nature. Thank you Dr. Choy! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Choy for about three years now. I originally went in for a knee injury due to poor form in my barre class. Dr. Choy was able to improve my discomfort after just one visit and give me so many helpful tips on how to prevent injury again. I continued to see Dr. Choy through my pregnancy and post partum, and she has been absolutely essential to my recovery post baby. After her visits, I always feel like a new person! She is accommodating to my schedule, the office is squeaky clean and I have felt completely safe visiting even during Covid. If you have been looking for a wonderful chiropractor, I couldn't recommend Dr. Choy more! read more

My friend Sonia (the Colorist) told me about her amazing chiropractor. I walked into Dr. Choy's office and was a very apprehensive. I didn't have good experiences with chiropractors before and touch was painful for me. She put me completely at ease and worked me until I now I can't wait for my next treatment. She truly cares for and about her patients. Not only does Dr Choy have a wonderful ability but she's a mother, a professional woman, a mentor for her interns and a wonderful human being. Now it's my turn to invite you to come visit my amazing chiropractor. read more

Dr. Choy is simply amazing! I don't know what I did to tailbone, but essentially, I couldn't sit without feeling extreme pain. This progressively got worse every month for way too long. Dr. Choy welcomed me warmly and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. she literally got me back on my (butt) in no time. Her laughter is contagious, her office immaculate, and her scheduling is very accommodating. read more
