I highly recommend Dr Leo and his team! When you walk in the…read moredoor you are greeted with a friendly smile and a welcome. Dr Leo has been practicing for years and is very knowledgeable. I told him about a fall I had in 2015 on my left hip. The pain and stiffness had gotten progressively worse and I developed sciatica. I could not sit for more than 10 minutes. None of the Drs or chiropractors I had seen in the 8 yrs since brought me any relief. Dr Leo adjusted me and my sciatica was gone. I had developed adhesions, why had no one else figured that out? Breaking the adhesions was painful but brief, my sciatica was gone and I had better range of motion and I can enjoy sitting now pain free for longer periods of time. Thank you to Dr Leo, a great knowledgeable Dr.

I have waited to write this review, because I "felt bad". But even feeling uncomfortable with…read morewriting a negative review couldn't ultimately silence me. The good: Dr. Leo cracked the heck out of my back a couple of times when I couldn't even walk. And it helped. I very much got relief from a couple of adjustments, even though I did get more subsequent adjustments and they didn't help. Sometimes a person's back is just too messed up for chiropractic to heal it or even to get relief. The women at the front desk are ANGELS. patient, kind, professional. I honestly don't know how they can stand working for this guy. In addition to his toxic masculinity seeping out of the pores of the walls of this place, Dr. Leo passively aggressively shares his political opinions with his patients. He even made fun of me as a patient because I calmly told him, "I don't feel the same way". He made an anti semitic joke, thinking I'd laugh with him. How do you tell someone they're inappropriate while they have their hands on your neck? I waited a few months after that, swearing I wouldn't go back. But I was in desperate pain again, and the two other chiropractors I'd seen couldn't get me in. So I booked w him again; he can get you in quick, which is a plus. When booking, I asked the women at the front desk to please ask him not to say anything political. They were very kind about it, and told me they'd talk to him. I believe they did because we barely spoke when I did go in. This last time the adjustment didn't help. I was probably too acute for chiropractic care at that point. I know some of his patients really love him, so there's that. And if you're MAGA you'll get along with him just fine. I, however, will not return. It's not worth selling my soul.

She listened to my concerns and really did a great job and addressed all areas in great detail. I was very happy with Val's massage. My only suggestion would be for the front desk receptionists be a little more quiet because you can hear everything in the massage room, (even with the relaxing music playing :(( ) I'll definitely be back and request Val again.

What makes the best chiropractors? 1- sports chiropractor, 2- investigate the issue(s), 3- they…read moreonly adjust where it is needed given the issue(s) (none of that let's crack the whole back & call it done), 4- Give exercises to compensate for the underlying issues. Dr. Leah Helin fits all these criteria and a lot more. I have seen maybe ~15 chiropractors all together in my life, Dr. Helin is the best chiropractor I have been to. Yes, she is expensive and we visited a couple others before finally landing there. The first hour visit will count as probably about 3 or 4 visits at another chiropractor. She is that smart, targeted and efficient. The whole family goes with great success. The biggest success is that one child that was told by two orthopedic specialists that surgery was needed, completely avoided surgery because Dr. Helin was part of the treatment. A 3-year old pain I had was identified, targeted, given exercises in ~15 minutes; she helped more in those minutes than 12 hours of physiotherapy. The now better targeted exercises keep me improving a lot faster. Go see her, you won't regret it.

Other than one other time, I haven't written a Yelp review in years, but I feel like I need to…read morewrite this. I've been to six or seven chiropractors in the past year. Dr. Leah is, by far, the best, and the most honest. I recently went to a guy in Solana Beach because he had a spine stretching machine (Dr. Leah is always booked, also, so I wanted to go to someone right away for my back pain--I'm an impatient person). The guy told me that the only way I'd get better was to come into his office three times per week for 8 weeks, and use his spinal stretching machine. He also told me that I couldn't do anything active except walk on flat ground for a maximum of 20 minutes at a time. I drove home from there, super depressed and discouraged. Well, after sleeping on it, I came to the conclusion that the guy was full of crap. He also wanted to charge me thousands of dollars to do it "his way." He seemed like a nice guy, but please. Dr. Leah not only gives awesome adjustments, but tells me how to cure my bulging discs. She's honest in telling me that nothing can actually revert them back to how I was 35 years ago, but she said I don't have to get worse, I don't have to suffer in pain so much, and I should still be able to surf, run, do yoga, play tennis, all the things I love. I love that she's a sports-minded practitioner too. She has a positive attitude and is super friendly and likable. She's efficient, too. I am writing this because I found her on Yelp and I want to pay it forward. No one should be debilitated from back pain. I cannot thank Dr. Leah enough for all she's done for me. I have so much more hope, and can do the things I love. She's a keeper.

I have been visiting Dr. Illia for two years now. I feel my review can be extensive enough to…read moredescribe just about everything. I'm like grumpy cat. Nothing much amuses me. I read people all too well and can call the bull card. Before I met Dr. Illia I was a very angry and frustrated individual due to my scoliosis and constant headaches. To top it off now I was pregnant and had to deal with the awesome pain of having to carry my LO in the womb. My last pregnancy was not fun at all. I searched for help immediately and I found her through a website, she helps preggers... Kids... All sorts of people of any age! I thought... Why not? I'll give her a try. She's located off Palomar Airport Road, in a office right next to a restaurant in this two story building. Parking is iffy. Her office is welcoming and she not only treats adults but also children as well! She will have toys for the tots as the parent is adjusted. As for Doctor herself... The moment I met her she put me at ease. She worked her Dr. Illia magic that only she can work. At first I was hesitant but she knew all I needed was good care. She really knows how to work with you and she actually has everything she needs to treat you immediately. If I can describe Dr. Illia, she's one of those doctors you always see in movies that is the "family doctor" that everyone runs to immediately with a problem. That's her only flaw... That she's not a doctor of ALL and everything!!! That's my only peeve. Back to the topic at hand... She helped me so much with my pregnancy. I was under a lot of stress with my scoliosis and every time I went over to get adjusted I felt like I was walking on air.. A true feeling of joy and bliss. I felt like a butterfly or a person who just took a hit of acid. I felt heavenly. She is what kept me from having my baby early. She helped ease the stress with her relaxing adjustments. I had a very big baby girl and she was breached and refusing to get in position for her exit to the real world but Dr. Illia adjusted me and helped my LO go into the correct position. After baby.. She would adjust my family and myself. We would all leave in bliss and joy each time. I've never had a bad time, and with each and every visit I've never seen her without a smile. I've never met another doctor who is beyond excellent at her job. If you are looking for a personable and comforting chiropractor who will actually adjust you and put you at ease... Then this is it. You've reached the place. Pricey... But it's worth your $$$.

In a nutshell: I was 36 weeks pregnant when I started going to Liesel and she helped me become…read morepain-free within 3-4 weeks! I greatly appreciate her light touch when needed as so many chiros just crack away and that can be a negative experience. Liesel is very sensitive to her clients. Longer story: I had JUST started maternity leave when 2 days in I suddenly had this sharp pain in my back lower left hip. It hindered every ability to walk, reach for things, and worst of all hindered my sleep! I was in a lot of pain whenever I had to make a micro movement lying or sitting down. My plans for leave included plenty of walking and getting things done in the house to be ready for baby. When this pain appeared I was devastated that it wasn't going away and I am not exaggerating when I say I was walking like a 100 year old woman (I am 40)! I started seeing Liesel on my 5th day of pain. After my 2nd session with Liesel I'll be honest I was skeptical. After week 2 I could tell something shifted and my pain was slightly less. But started to feel like the pain would take a step forward and half a step back. I'm writing this 4 days after my 6th session (at 2 sessions a week) with Liesel and I have felt totally normal these last 4 days consistently!!! The pain is GONE. Which means that I'll be able to deliver with better agility, less physical pain, I CAN WALK and sleep! I can't thank her enough! I'll be continuing to see her until I deliver to make sure this doesn't come back, and plan to see Liesel after delivery as needed. She is wonderful and being pain free means everything!

Upon our initial meeting, she pulled up my charts and pointed out the impacted areas of my body that were caused by the accident & explained next steps. She did a great job explaining my chart where it was easy for me to understand. The journey of healing & recovery with Dr. Lisel was amazing. She also has such a welcoming & friendly energy. At the end of my recovery phase/appointments, I felt not only was Dr. Lisel my doctor but also a friend. I felt so much better. I have been to 2 other chiropractors prior to Dr. Lisel, I clearly experienced a huge difference in the level of "QUALITY" care and professionalism delivered by her. The other chiropractors didn't do anything for me, every visit was the same where I would lay down under a heating pad for 10-mins. Dr. Lisel is the real deal, thankgoodness I was recommended to her!
