I just had another most beneficial session with Ryan Caringola. This man has kept me walking for three years. Great job Ryan read more

I have been going to Doctor Ryan since 2010ish (maybe earlier actually). He is fantastic. I was having a lot of knee problems stemming from have a slightly shorter leg (which Dr. Ryan confirmed was the case) and knee surgery in 1996. I was also having a lot of headaches and neck pain from working on a laptop and writing my thesis. At first, there are more visits needed than you might anticipate, but you can feel the improvement and then (in my case) it becomes more of a maintenance visit I like the methodology behind of "chiropracting" that Dr. Ryan utilizes. Gonstead Chiropractic adjustments include analysis with x-rays (to start) and other tools that left me feeling really secure in what path Dr. Ryan was taking to help me start feeling better. I've been to other chiropractors, including a few good ones, but still found getting adjusted a little nerve wracking. I do not feel that way at all with Dr. Ryan. He is knowledgeable and direct. I highly recommend a visit to his practice. He is also a great resource for help in following a more healthy lifestyle through nutrition and exercise. read more

I run a personal training business out of Carlsbad. When I decided to bring my business to San Diego I was looking for other wellness professionals that shared my values. I first met Dr. Caringola at a networking function in 2011. I was impressed with his holistic approach to health and his passion getting his patients well, without surgery. Since then I have referred over 20+ clients and have seen a significant improvement in their kinetic structure. Glad to have him apart of the team! For me personally, I do competitive jiu jitsu and earlier this year, I "popped" my back training. I immediately went to see Dr. Ryan and get it back in place. In time to get healthy to compete the next month. I"m 100% and glad True Chiropractic Wellness is there for a resource when I need it. Thanks guys! read more

Dr. Ryan showed me my latest back X-ray today. I never thought I would see improvement in the curve of my spine but I am 3 degrees less crooked! I was told by doctors that my scoliosis would only get worse, but Dr. Ryan proved them all wrong. I love his holistic approach. He is always advocating a healthy overall natural lifestyle, encouraging all natural techniques to putting the body in the best conditions for healing itself. He will give diet and fitness recommendations appropriate for your condition. Dr. Ryan is extremely positive and motivational! He takes the time to explain everything so you learn more about your body every time you see him. I learn a new way to improve my healthy every time I see him. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Ryan if you want to relieve your back pain and improve your health. read more

I've been under Dr Caringola's chiropractic care for about two years now, along with my wife. I began seeing in order to treat my foot pain due to a spur. Being a full time dance instructor I thought I was going to have to give up on my dancing and teaching profession. Nonetheless, Today after being seen by him for some time, I could honestly say I've felt improvement on my back and neck-not just my foot. Although most chiropractors benefit from seeing you more often, Dr Caringola actually wants to get you feeling better faster and lowering your amount of visits. Versus the 3 times a week I use to see him at first, now it's only once a week, or as needed. All thanks to him! A couple more 'pros' about Dr Caringola: 1) He always takes the time to re-examine one's X-rays while also trying different testing methods before deciding on the correct adjustment needed for you. 2) He's constantly taking advance education courses related to chiropractic and nutrition in order always to offer the best and latest treatment options for his patients. read more

I was visiting Encinitas and after a long plane ride and two nights in a very soft bed, my neck was out. I found Dr Ryan Caringola right next to the barber shop I got a hair cut at. They were really nice to take me in as a walk in late in the day and very understanding of my situation. Dr Caringola was extremely good at finding the vertebrae that were out of position and was careful to not over adjust. His equipment is also extra new and the adjustment bed lowers your body from a standing position to a face down position. Very good if you cannot move your back at all. Thank you so so much and I wish I had Dr Ryan in my home town! read more

I started taking my son to Dr.Ryan in October 2015. I was recommended by a friend who said Dr.Ryan could help with my son showing severely autistic behavior (head banging, non verbal, sensory issues, not sleeping, gut problems). Dr. Ryan listened to all my sons problems and was determined to help me with my son. Dr.Ryan started my son on a diet and made me go all organic/natural living. He was always thorough with explaining what he was adjusting on my son. Also added vitamins and probiotics to heal my sons gut. My son David was eventually diagnosed with ASD a few months after first meeting Dr. Ryan, but all the psychologists were amazed and stunned by the improvement he made in such a short amount a time on just the diet and chiropractic alone. I swear by chiropractic and healing autism because of Dr. Ryan. Because of him, I have my sweet little happy boy back. read more

Hello yelp, I am raising Jonah who has Autism. I want to comment on the positive effect Dr. Ryan has had with My son. Dr. Ryan has gained Jonah's trust and has helped him regulate week to week. Autism is a spectrum and each case is unique. Jonah's therapy works for him. My wife and I have practical expectations toward Jonah's Long term success, derived directly from this VERY positive form of therapy. Undeniable is the respect my son has for Dr. Ryan, as well as, his willingness to allow him to adjust his back and neck. Dr. Ryan has let Jonah's demeanor LEAD out in regard to the depth of his session that day. There is a stark contrast between his interest in wanting to visit Dr. Ryan VS. getting a hair cut, where Jonah will persistently melt down. Although my son can not speak in sentences we always make an effort to thank Dr. Ryan for his kindness and effort toward making Jonah's day better. read more

I met Dr. Ryan at a wellness expo. He had a deal where you could come in to get an exam for $49 so I signed up for it and went in to see him at his office. I thought that he would ask me about my back and adjust me but instead he asked me about my back and ran a bunch of tests, a stress test really?, and x-rays. He told me that he couldn't adjust my back without doing tests first and x-rays which I thought was weird because I had gone to my very first chiropractor about four months prior and the chiropractor adjusted me and never once took x-rays. But I thought maybe the previous chiropractor should have done x-rays on me? I went in the following week for Dr. Ryan to go over my results with me he said I had issues with my neck but I was lucky that he could treat and it wouldn't take very long. Just three adjustments a week for about six months and he'd have me healed. What? He said that if I didn't get adjusted regularly and fix my issue (which was a curved neck) that I would end up getting bone spurs. I thought he would adjust me then but he said the $49 was only the assessment it did not include adjustment. Then it turns out that they don't take my insurance so I have to pay privately for these adjustments. But don't worry he has all these different payment plan options for you! what? I thought you said I could use my insurance? No, actually now it turns out he's not covered by insurance because he does holistic chiropractic and treats the prevention of disease? All of a sudden it clicked and it all seemed too weird to me. Specially how he tried to bond with me over talking about autism and told me that he adjusts children that have autism to decrease their symptoms. First time I've ever heard of such a bogus treatment method for autism in 10 years. He said there is research studies. All he could show me were some testimonies. That's not research! But I told him I would be interested in him sending me actual research articles. I left vowing to call him to make an appointment later on and figured since I'm dating a doctor I can just ask him what his medical opinion is on this before I decide. I asked Dr. Ryan if he could send me copies of my x-rays and he said he would email them to me. He never did. The doctor I'm dating immediately said he thought it was completely bogus. Unfortunately I never received X-rays so that I could show them to my man. I ended up going to a different chiropractor in Vista who adjusted me about a total of five times in three weeks before I felt completely better. I told this chiropractor what the other chiropractor said and whether he thought that I should come at least once weekly. He could've totally said "yes come in once a week don't worry I'll fix you once a week instead of three times a week" and I would've bought it. But this chiropractor laughed and explained anatomy to me and said people like Dr. Ryan gives chiropractors a bad name. It's been over six months since the Vista chiro treated me and I'm still good and I haven't had any pain anymore. I waited for a long time before writing this review because I wanted to make sure that I wasn't the crazy one leaving a bad review for this doctor when most people are raving about him. I've realized that it's not just that I had a weird creepy feeling about it but two other doctors have validated it for me. That's exactly why I'm writing my review because when you're checking yelp and you see somebody that has just five-star reviews it's like, really can someone be that amazing? or is he just a really Great sales man? read more

Dr Ryan told me it will take time and I didn't expect a miracle overnight he's very thorough and explains everything.. I feel amazing and pain free.. I highly recommend Dr Ryan and his staff they are wonderful and very accommodating.. Not your typical crack & go.. Schedule an appt you'll be very happy you did.. read more

True chiropractic with Dr. Kipp is my first encounter with chiropractic. I have been nothing but satisfied. He is very friendly, professional and knowledgable. He greets his clients by name and is 100% invested in them. I feel very comfortable and welcomed every time I go. The program I am in is really affordable and after just two and a half weeks I'm already feeling better. I have recommended him to two people already. They even give a $150 referral credit to your referrals! Annette and the front desk has exceptional customer service skills and is really attentive. Great all around! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Ryan since he started his practice in Encinitas. He has made such a difference in my life - helping me keep my spine properly in alignment, and working with me on my diet and nutrition. He truly takes an overall wellness approach to me as client. He has not only done the above, but has helped me with my knees - I was told I would have to have surgery at some point. So far, no need. He's also working with me now on my hearing loss. He's a very caring practitioner, answering all my questions, and giving me information that is supported scientifically. read more

I absolutely love this place!! I was very hesitant to see a chiropractor due to a bad experience I had about ten years ago. Ryan is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. I had a neck fusion several years ago but still experience tingling and discomfort. All of my symptoms have significantly subsided since seeing Ryan. He has also helped me knee and lower back problems. I highly recommend True Chiropractic Wellness. read more

A few months ago I was in an extreme amount of pain from something I did to my back!! I had no idea how it happened and nothing like that has ever happened to me before. I was really freaked out especially because I work on my feet. I went to see Dr. Caringola and he fixed it within a few visits. I don't think that I would go for regular adjustments at this time but I would return to this office if I had another problem. The office was professional and I never had to wait. read more

I will never go here again, even if it is the last chiropractic center in the universe. I found the doctor to be rude, obnoxious and arrogant. A complete waste of my time. I met the doctor at a trade show offering heavily discounted services, that should have been my first clue (heavily discounted services and exhibiting at a trade show/exhibition to try and get new clients). Never again. read more

Dr. Ryan Caringola is simply the best, most caring chiropractor I've ever had! I'm 73 and had my first chiropractic visit when I was 15. I've been in 3 serious rear-end car accidents, the last when I was 57 and have been told I would not completely heal from the damage, well Dr. Ryan is making good progress, I'm happy to report. I know that longstanding problems cannot disappear overnight but slowly and surely I'm feeling so much improvement that I highly recommend the Gonstead method and Dr. Caringola! Dr. Adam Kipp is also in the office and a friend of mine sees him and likes him very much. If you want real improvement this is the place to go, what are you waiting for? I'm very happy to have found him. read more

Having an active lifestyle and being a massage therapist means I really need to be aware of what is going on with my body. Dr. Ryan helped me to pinpoint roots of pain and make very effective adjustments to relieve it. I was amazed, that after one particular adjustment to my neck, my jaw actually realigned to its natural position causing my teeth to settle into perfect alignment. Seems strange but even without TMJ I really noticed how much more comfortable my neck was and how much lighter my head felt. I look forward to seeing Dr. Ryan because I KNOW I'm going to leave in better condition than when I went in. Yay! read more

After 5 months of no real progress with a Chiropractor Dr. that had been able to assist me in the past, I was at my wits end. Continuous pain down my legs and extreme stiffness which really inhibited by physical functionality. I'd gained 12 pounds due to lack of exercise an I was frustrated. I stumbled into Dr. Ryan at the Encinitas Street Fair. I explained my situation and asked him if he thought he could help. He was extremely professional and I appreciated his approach. I decided to take him up on the special promotion which included extensive testing and xrays. After just six visits, I was able to hike Torrey Pines and go horseback riding on Fathers day. Prior to that, I was virtually immobile. I am very pleased with the progress and look forward to playing golf in the next couple of weeks. I like his philosophy around health and strongly recommend the team there. Always on time, welcoming and most of all caring. Thanks. read more
