Best chiropractor I have ever been too! Very nice man. He really understand what your body needs. I have been going to a chiropractor for 11years. Moved to LB, found him, and was blown away. I have never been adjusted the was he does it. He fixes your back against the wall in your natural form, not laying on a bed twisting you up like a pretzel. He knows the same thing that other chiro's do, in that you'll need more than one adjustment to get you where you need to be. The difference here is, he will ask you to come back the same day and crack you again, does this under the same fee! Other doctors have you come back three times a week and charge you full price every time. Very happy to find this chiropractor to help my back as well as his positive spirit to give me a boost any time I see him. read more

10 stars if I could! This man is a true miracle. My husband and I were referred to dr. Ward by one of my co-workers and I was in so much pain I felt desperate! I'm 9 months pregnant and I suffer from sciatic nerve. Anyone who has ever felt that pain knows it's very crippling. Being 9 months pregnant I was definitely nervous but I couldn't be happier and dr. Ward made me feel soooo comfortable! The receptionist was also extremely comforting and sweet. This is also the only place I found that was affordable since my insurance doesn't cover any chiropractic care what so ever! I would highly recommend dr. Ward to anyone! He has such great energy and his facility has an amazing vibe. Thank you dr. Ward and staff for everything! I will be back. read more

My best friend has been singing the praises of Dr. Steve for quite some time. How her life and the lives of her family members have transformed as a result of their visits with him. Last week I woke up with excruciating pain running up my neck and down my left arm. This best friend took me to his office immediately for which I will be eternally grateful! To her and to him! He is not only one of the most kind, compassionate, generous, intuitive people I've ever met; but a phenomenal and inspiring healer! To see him is a true act of self love! Do this for yourself! God bless! read more

Dr Ward has helped my Family and I for more than 10 years He is very kind and truly cares about our well being, He has helped us so many times with various physical and emotional problems . Thank you so much Dr Ward ! Highly recommended ! read more

Pinched nerve in neck 5 weeks ago, I woke up with piercing pain from my shoulder to my elbow. The pain was so horrific that I could not sleep, could not use my right arm to write, reach for and hold an object, or even use the hand to do daily life activities such as brush my teeth or blow dry my hair. After several nights walking the floors in pain, I found Steven Ward. My family wanted me to see an Orthopedic surgeon but at age 51 I did not want to have any surgery on my neck. Meeting with Steve, I was amazed that he had through knowledge of the pain I was experiencing and he also had insight to what was physically, emotionally, and spiritually going on in my life that lead my body to experience such pain. He made me realize that I had been "carrying" so much burden and responsibilities, with allowing no down time for my physical body to relax, that my body was just now communicating with me that it was time for a change. At each adjustment, my shoulder pain was lessening and the words of encouragement from Steve allowed me to have several "Aha" moments. Because the burden I have been carrying was so many years in the making, it took a few weeks to get my body back in functioning mode. I cannot tell you how grateful I am to Dr. Steve. The journey through this experience opened my eyes to how our physical body reacts to how we are choosing life. I have NEVER experienced any type of pain like the pain I have experienced with this! However, today I am able to go back to my regular life activities but with a new found knowledge that I need to take care of myself and change some of my old habits, such as putting everyone else before me. Thank you...thank you...THANK YOU!!!! Karen Montano read more

Dr Steve is as good as it gets, or better. He has helped my wife S. and her sister V. numerous times. If they are in any discomfort they see Dr Steve. Love ya Doc read more

All I can say is amazing and I highly recommend him!!! I've been to chiropractors before and I though I was getting a proper adjustment until now. I wish I found Dr. ward sooner! read more

The #1 Chiropractor and emotional healer. Very blessed to have Dr Ward in my life!!!

Dr Ward is fantastic! I had been going to another Chiropractor for over 3 months 3 times a week with minimal results. After a coworker referred me to Dr. Ward I was feeling much better than I Had after going to the other chiropractor for over 36 visits. Dr Wards approach and treatment has made my back tolerable and I feel I am on the road to no more back pain! I have referred 6 other Patients to Dr. Ward and they all have the same conclusion as mine!!! I would referrer Dr. Ward to anyone experiencing back pain as he is by far the best and most caring and best Chiropractor I have ever the pleasure of being treated by. I can not say enough good things about Dr. Ward read more

Dr. Ward is an amazing chiropractor! He gets you in, does your adjustment, and gets you out. No frills, no long waits, no hassle! I have horrible back problems due to car accident and Dr. Ward has been vital in helping me ease the pain and discomfort. He let me know up front that he does adjustments only. No roller beds, no machines, no whatever other things people try to use these days! I couldn't have been happier! If you're in need of an actual chiropractor with great skills, go see Dr. Ward! He is one of the best and also good guy. read more

I've been going to see Dr. Stephen Ward for several years now, and just wanted to express my gratitude towards him & his talents! I originally went to see him for my lower back pain, which I always thought was strictly due to abusing myself physically in my youth (vert skating, basketball, etc.). What Dr. Ward revealed to me was SO much more than I had imagined! His adjustments are fantastics, but he brings an incredible insight into his patients as to the root causes of an individual's pain & the struggles that come with it. He is a beaming light of inspiration, and radiates positivity in a way that one can't help but be affected by it for the better. His eagerness and willingness to share the wealth of knowledge that he has gathered has encouraged me to take the steps to turn my life around in a positive way that had he NOT encouraged me may not have EVER happened! For this, I am forever grateful to him, and cannot recommend any of his services highly enough! So much more than a chiropractor!!!! Ten thousand stars for Dr. Ward!!!!! read more

I rarely write review unless it's worth the time, and only when I have exceptional experience. My husband and I were involved in an auto accident and were in major pain. I stumbled upon luck looking for a chiropractor in Long Beach area and an image of "Ward Chiropractor" popped up when I surfed the internet. I decided to call the office and there was this upbeat and pleasant voice of a gentleman tell us to swing by. We decided to check it out and the rest was history. We went for a few treatments, and already my lower back pain was significantly less painful. My husband's arms and neck were also a lot better. Dr. Ward made every visit worthwhile and not only the treatment, but emotionally we felt so much better because of all Dr. Ward's positive energy. Sometimes it seems so surreal, because there's actually an amazing human being out there. I understand in the end it's about business, but it's totally more than just a monetary for Dr. Ward. Even after we paid him, he even extended an offer to treat us a few more times with no additional charge. How amazing is that? This only means that he truly cares for his patient and we are just not a number. In addition, he's so flexible and h always was willing to work with our hectic schedule. I would definitely recommend Dr. Ward as your to go Chiropractor if you are around Long Beach area. But honestly, I've seen patients that travel from afar to see him as well. My husband and I are so grateful for this amazing Chiro Man. Excellent job Dr. Ward! Thank you so much. read more

my friend goes to dr ward and recommended him to me, she seemed to recommend him as much as everyone else here does. ive been having back pain for 2 weeks, went to a terrible chiropractor near my work and figured i would try to come here. when i called they told me that i could just walk in, i didnt need and appointment which was great. when i got there he seemed to be with a different patient, which was fine, i didnt mind waiting but then came out and called my name. he spent maybe 3-5min tops with me, really didnt ask much about what was wrong with me, he just knew my back hurt. then went back in the previous room and chatted with the previous patient. even my friend seemed supprised when i told her, so maybe i caught him on an off day, but my back felt a bit better when i left so that much im thankful for. he told me to come back today for another follow up so maybe it will be better...keep you posted ...so i went back for my complimentary follow up, same thing, in and out in 3-5 min, but my back feels better :) read more

Dr. Ward is absolutely AMAZING. My mom has been going to him for a few times and wow! She is completely in awe of how great of a person he is. He is not only one of the greatest chiropractors but he is also a great person. He will guide you to the right direction and give you advice about how to view your life. She enjoys going to his office because she actually sees results. It takes her over an hour to go but she'd rather take the time to go to him then to anyone else. He's the best!!!! -Best Regards, Amy & husband read more

There are no chiropractors as knowledgeable and caring as Dr Steve. You will come out feeling much better than when you came in--from the adjustment, good positive energy, jokes and laughter, and genuine caring. You might even get a hug and compliment as you walk out! Best thing is, Dr Steve can tell you how to ease your pain long term by changing the root cause--usually stress! Love him! read more

Dr. Steve is a fantastic chiropractor. I've been seeing him for a few years now due to having some back pain. My job is physically demanding and I can't be laid up due to back pain. Steve helped me through the pain with adjustments as well as coaching. He is the only choice if you need a chiropractor! read more

Dr. Ward has been my chiropractor my for the past 5 years. He exceeds expectations, he is the only chiropractor that I have seen that truly cares about the persons well being. I have been getting chiropractic adjustments my entire life to stay healthy and happier. Dr. Ward not only adjusts a person but digs deeper into why their body is feeling the way it does both physically and emotional. I have brought so many of my friends in that continue to see Dr. Ward because they see improvements in their lives. Many of them came from having awful experiences at other Chiropractors. I can keep going on about the benefits of visiting Dr. Ward, but it take the person making the first step to improving their life. Thank you Dr. Ward for all the wonderful care! read more

I have been coming to Dr. Ward for over 12 years and when I found him threw a friend I was in such bad pain nothing would help. Dr.Ward worked with me and I found that it is not only physical pain but emotional pain that is linked together that takes a toll on our bodies. You see when I started coming here I was going threw a lot in my personal life. So fast forward to last year and I was pregnant for the 1st time. that took a major toll on me as well because I am a hairstylist and on my feet all day. I came 2 times a week and that's how I worked up until a week before i delivered my baby. He doesn't adjust like the old fashioned way of pressing down on you , he sits you up on a stool against the wall, you lean in and he adjust you that way. "the wall adjustment" Dr. Ward is Amazing and his staff are the sweetest kindest ladies you will ever meet. Also he is very reasonable in priced @ $50.So you get so much for your money. I have referred so many family and friends over the years I've lost count. Give him a try you won't regret it :) read more

Dr. Ward is a Godsend, he is always so happy and positive and he really has a passion for enriching people's lives and taking away pain. I have been to him on numerous occasssions, once when I somehow tweaked my neck and couldn't even turn my head, I was fixed by the end of the day. Another time I was having horrible pain in my lower back, I literally thought I was having kidney pain and thought I should go to the ER, then my friend suggested to go see Dr. Ward, and what do ya know.... I went in a couple times that same day to get adjusted and the next day I was good as new. Thank you Dr. Ward for all that you do. read more

I am so lucky I found Dr. Ward this week. I hurt my neck and shoulder working out so bad that I could not move and was in terrible pain. It stems from a car accident fifteen years ago when I was a teenager in which I broke my collar bone and required a fusion surgery on my spine. Dr. Ward has seen me three times a day for four days and I have improved so much, I don't need any pain medication and am starting to feel normal again. He has also helped me to identify how emotional pain contributes to the burden we place on our physical bodies. He is so kind, warm, welcoming, and encouraging, and I am actually happy I went through this ordeal because I know now that I will continue to take better care of myself going forward, which will include regular visits with Dr. Ward. If you have any kind of pain, whether from an injury, sports, or just stress, I highly recommend doing yourself a favor and visit Dr. Ward! read more

I have had a long history of spine problems from a background of heavy lifting during childhood. I have been evaluated and sought treatment from numerous chiropractors, cranial and sacral specialists. In reference to my extensive treatment by chiropractors, I would rate Doctor Ward at the top of the stack. He is a second generation chiropractor that has a decisive advantage over other practitioners from his father's practice. He understands the manifestations of psychological effects on the musculoskeletal system. He also understands the comprehensive complexity of the spinal column as a complete system, from the coccyx joint up through the cervical column and in relation to the cranial bones. This understanding and his treatment has helped me immensely in saving my eyesight, which was deteriorating due to sphenoid displacement and retinal tearing from excessive dural pressure exerted within the eye sockets. I highly recommend this chiropractor for help in remediation of your health issues caused by musculoskeletal issues. read more

I had lower back surgery 11 years ago and was in pain 24/7. I've tried acupuncture, medicines, epidural shots, massage and more to no relief. Then I started going to Dr. Ward and with his unique approach to chiropractic I am feeling so much better. It's been about 2 months of seeing him and I see results! I'm able to move better with less pain and now it feels like my body is awakening to accept adjustments. Dr. Ward is truly a healer. I'm enjoying more fun in my life thanks to Dr. Ward. read more

Dr. Ward is the best Chiropracter I have ever met! He is so personable. He is a very caring person. His spirit when you walk in the door will already have you feeling better. Dr. Ward has helped me for many years. I am a hairstylist and I always cut hair looking down so I struggle with neck and shoulder pain. Then I became pregnant. I had to stand for 8 hour shifts with back pain and my frequent shoulder and neck pain. He was always there to relieve my pain with his wall adjustments and talk me through my struggles. He really helped me physically and emotionally to get through my pregnancy. Then I had my baby and my baby was not an easy baby she would cry all the time. We realized she was suffering with reflux so I would talk to Dr. Ward about it and he suggested I bring the baby in for treatment. He said that baby's really go through a lot when they exit the birth canal delivered naturally. The baby's body gets cramped up and needs to be adjusted. So I brought her in, he just used a small gauge spring that lightly popped on her skin and it didn't hurt her at all. After a few times using the gauge we really started to notice a difference in her behavior. She was more calm, not crying as much, and was able to move her head around more freely. I am ultimately so very thankful to have met Dr. Ward he has changed my life and my baby's life. Anyone that gets a chance to go see him will realize just how much they need him in there life too! read more

I started seeing Dr. Ward last year after visiting about half a dozen Dr's that just could not help me and were clueless about what was causing my problem. The first day I met with Dr. Ward I was with my mom, I was a little hesitant and scared to let one more Dr. touch me because of the severe pain I was in. Dr. Ward was very patient and took his time explaining his methods and answering my questions and after my first treatment I noticed a difference and began to see Dr. Ward on a weekly basis. My case was not only challenging and difficult but throughout the course of my treatment I had days where I had to call Dr. Ward on an emergency basis because of a set back my body was having. No matter what my situation was Dr. Ward was ALWAYS available to help me. Dr. Ward was always encouraging, always happy, bubbly and always positive even on days where I had so much going on and just wanted to give up! I truly feel Dr. Ward gave me 110% and the reason why after spending 9 long months on medical leave I was able to start healing but it doesn't stop there Dr. Ward has an amazing staff. The girls are not only beautiful, intelligent, encouraging but also extremely helpful. Ward Chiropractic is truly the whole package! I am now back at work, going to the gym on a regular basis, started dance class and very happy! Thank you Dr. Ward. read more

I am sure coming back . read more

I have been going to Ward Chiropractic since I was in High School, about 8 years. I was a cheerleader in HS, constantly had ribs out of place from catching girls and had a back injury as well as two car accidents. He is always so kind and caring. He truly cares for his patients and genuinely asks how life is going. He is very knowledgable and the best around! I still go to him now from previous injuries and always having back pain, it definitely gets better when I see him! Recently, I was having very deep, sharp pains in my back and went to see him. (I had moved further away about 10 months ago and did not see him in awhile so there was definitely tension built up). I had several ribs out of place and he adjusted me. I saw him a few times the next week and was feeling amazing after that, there was so much release and the pressure was gone! He is amazing, highly recommend. Such a great guy! read more

I have seen a few chiropractors over the years and Dr. Ward is one of the best. His technique has given me relief on many occasions and I am appreciative that I don't have to sit and wait 30 min. in a cubicle. Besides being a great Chiropractor he is an all around good guy. read more

I want to let everyone know that is considering coming into this Sanctuary that you will feel more than welcomed, you will feel more than comfortable, and you will leave feeling more than happy, relieved, and refreshed. Most importantly you will leave having met a new friend, Dr. Ward. I was under severe lower back pain and was looking for more than just a doctor to give me a crack, write my symptoms on a clip board, suggest the next visit, and call it a day. I received more than what I expected. It has only been a few days and I already feel SO much better. Unlike most, Dr. Wards approach to healing is very unique. His commitment and dedication to his specialty is what I admire most. He puts his patients first and goes above and beyond until you are healed. He is truly genuine and caring about your well being. I cannot thank you enough, Dr. Ward. You changed my life and are amazing! read more

I felt compelled to write a review about Dr. Ward because the services he provided helped me through an extremely difficult time in my life. All throughout the first two trimesters of my two pregnancies I experienced terrible "morning" (and I use that term loosely because it really was morning, noon, and night!) sickness. With my first pregnancy, I sought help from my ob-gyn and he tried everything- injections, suppositories, prescriptions, etc. but nothing was working and I was dropping weight like crazy. I began to worry and started looking for alternative methods. That's when Dr. Ward came into my life and changed it for the better. With a few simple adjustments (up until the day I delivered!) I was able to return to work and start eating on the regular again- woohoo! Without him, I don't think I would have been able to enjoy one of the most precious times in my life and for that I am extremely thankful. Till this day, if I have any hint of nausea or pain I get adjusted by him immediately. Thank you again Dr. Ward... you are the best! read more
