I started seeing a chiropractor when i was in 8th grade (about 15 years old) for bad neck pain and a recurring inexplainable shoulder pain. Also my neck pain frequently led to migraine headaches. I saw my first chiropractor for a couple of years with good results until I lost my insurance coverage. A few years later I was able to afford to see a chiropractor on my own and had began to experience more pain and headache symptoms. I was turned on to Dr. Zylker by my boyfriends' grandmother who had been seeing him and had known him for many years. He is a very warm and energetic man and makes you feel very comfortable. His evaluation was professional, he can explain medical conditions and terminology very well. His technique was amazing and he got things to shift around perfectly every time. He was so good that I was able to convince my boyfriend to see him as well for his back pain. My boyfriend is a really big guy, and Dr. Z being smaller in stature was still very capable of maninpulating things right into place. All of our experiences with Dr. Zylker have been professional, affordable, pleasant, and RELIEVING. He comes higly recommended by my whole family. read more

I used to see Dr Oksenendler in Walnut Creek for Chiropractic care however he never got rid of my back pain. A year after I stopped treatment with Dr. O, I decided to give chiropractic care another try with Dr. Zylker. I started treatment with Dr. Zylker on March, 4 2007. Dr. Zylker is great he starts you off with a in depth Health and Wellness exam. I explained to Dr. Zylker that I had been diagnosed with Scoliosis at age 13. I started off conveying to Dr. Zylker that I had been experiencing a great deal of pain in my neck, shoulders, and lower back for many years. I conveyed to Dr. Zylker my main goal from chiropractic care was to have a drop in my current pain level, and see it happen less frequently. Within 6 months my pain level dropped from 7-4. In addition, I experienced pain every 2-3 weeks instead of weekly. I highly recommend you see Dr. Zylker for chiropractic treatment if your looking someone who listens to your problems and provides results. As a California certified massage therapist with over 4 years experience I feel confident in referring Dr. Zylker my clients for chiropractic care. read more

8 months ago I met doctor Z. One of the first things he asked me is did I have any health problems that concerned me, I answered no, his next question was if I could change or improve anything about my body or health what would I like to change. There were a number of things that concerned me that I wanted to improve. Doctor Z said having these problems was not OK and would I like to get rid of them? Since my initial visit I have improved my health through a nutritional cleansing program, strengthened my immune system , reduced stress , lost weight , and no longer have lower back pain as a result of a quarter inch difference in leg length. What I really appreciate about doctor Z is his concern in keeping people away from dangerous pharmaceuticals. The tests recomended to me were a hormone balance stress test , a saliva test for toxic chemicals, and range of motion testing to detect nerve damage. As far as I am concerned the wellness approach to regaining your health is the best choice. read more

There been a pain in my foot for months. I have low back issues for years and have seen many chiropractor. It just happened one October Fest Day in Walnut Creek , there was a message chair open with a young women who said your limping! Maybe we can help so I sat down filled out a small question form got a quick message.Then met DR. Zylker who made a serious point to me, that one of my legs was shorter than the other. Just by a 1/2 inch this was causing undo pressure on the other foot. I made an appointment with him a couple days later. After my visit I walked out to my car and could tell right away my foot did not hurt. So after seeing him for a month he helped me straighten me problems and I was ready to hit my treadmill to shed the pounds that had built up. Six months later 25 pounds lighter I can tell you I was saved from destroying my body. I will say if it's a pain in the neck or your foot, give Dr. Zylker a try he has made great effects on me. read more

When my wife's chiropractor passed away in Walnut Creek about 20 years ago, we followed his spouse to Dr. Zylker were she became employed as office assistant. My wife had suffered with terribly painful sciatica for some time...and though temporarily helped by the previous doctor, continued to get worse. Doctor Ken Zylker, unlike any previous experiences, used a table that pivoted up and down at the hip area while using his unique manipulations on the back. My wife felt better immediately, and following her SECOND TREATMENT was COMPLETELY CURED - and never had the sciatica troubles again! It seemed unbelievable such marvelous treatment was possible, but I personally certify this as absolute truth. You may contact me through Dr Zylker for confirmation. To prevent my own back problems as I grow old, I use his services monthly, and have nothing but praise for his expert work. Bill C. read more

My old Chiropractor was alright, so it took me a while to actually switch to a new one when I moved. Eventually, the cross town drive got to be too annoying, and I wasn't able to make any progress because I couldn't get there often enough. I decided to give Dr. Zylker a try on my mother in law's recommendation. I couldn't lie down on the floor at all because I would get screaming awful pain when I tried to get up. At 25, this was a bit of a problem. With Dr. Zylker's help I can go for about 15 minutes now, and finally got a decent explanation for why it happens. His prices are about the same as the other guy I went to, so I can go with the frequency I want. He's a great guy and very accommodating. He even waits for me when I get back from work late. Moral of the story: Sometimes your mother in law is good for something. read more

I believe in chiropractic care. I believe that it has helped me stay healthy. I worked in a chiropractor's office for several months and saw the improvement of patients, some that could be referred to as "miracles." As an employee, I received a free exam and evaluation. It was determined that I have a birth injury that can be treated well by chiropractic care. That was 30+ years ago. I have been going once a month ever since. The past 15+years have been with Dr.Zylker. He is very caring, very interested in his patients' well-being. He listens to their concerns. Right now I am being treated for a whiplash caused by a car accident. Though I want to get back to "normal," I am confident that I am in "good hands" under Dr. Z's care. Pat Kramer read more

I was having pain down my leg and especially in one foot for many months and even after a cortisone injection, the relief was minimal. After 10 visits to Dr. Zylker and 4 months since my last visit I am pain free. I found him very caring, and compassioniate and he put me at ease as it was my first experience seeing a chiopractor and I was a little nervous. He was extremely honest and certainly affordable as my insurance has not been forth coming with payments. I plan to return to his office at any time I need future help. I have and will continue to refer him to my friends if asked for his name. Jill M. read more

When my back went out, I was given all kinds of medication of which I refused to contaminate by body and mind. Dr. Zylker was recommended by a coworker. I was very skeptical in the beginning because I had been told that chiropractic applications didn't work. However, after a few sessions with Dr. Zylker, I was amazed to find that I could sleep at night without the shooting pain in my leg and hip awakening me at night. Even though the distance from my home to his office is more than I anticipated traveling, his price beats all other chiropractors closer to my home. I am very satisfied with his work. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Z's for 10 years and have no complaints! He schedules my appts around my work schedule and works with my insurance to help me get the most out of my benefits without costing me any extra. Dr. Z always asks about areas that are giving me problems and makes sure to focus on them so I am given relief from the pain. He is very attentive to what is going on that could be causing me additional stress which could be adding to the cause of the pain and offers suggestions to help avoid additional issues. I have never considered changing to a different service providor. read more

Dr. Zylker is amazing. I had developed a lot of bad habits after major back surgery and had to relearn how to stand and sit correctly. He kept me on a plan until I was back to as normal as I could be with all those pins and screws in my back. He is knowledgable, compassionate and worked to get me better. He was flexible with my busy schedule. What a great guy to have on the wellness team. In my book he is as good as it gets. read more
