The Joint Chiropractic

I highly recommend if your in pain but holding out for fear of cost, to visit The Joint. The team is extremely professional and care about you, and take care in your discomfort and make an effort to make it as comfortable as possible. I saw Dr. Conte, he was very knowledgeable and helped ease my fears. The whole process from new patient paper work to meeting the Dr, to the adjustment took less then an hr of my time and the cost was minimal for package they have to offer.

As a medical professional, I would not advise Dr Kevin to adjust you until he has obtained a more gentle touch. His approach and style are rough. He used techniques that have left me in tremendous pain for several days. I did not come in to the Joint with any pain. It was his cervical and thoracic adjustment that caused the injury. I told him he was being rough. I told him I was hurting. He did not adjust his method. I have a membership and have considered canceling as he is now working at the Beaverton location for an undetermined time frame.

Went for my first time today, new patient paperwork was minimal & I didn’t have to wait at all — Dr. Conte was awesome, super knowledgeable & seemed genuinely interested in the problems that I have. I would definitely recommend, very reasonable pricing too!

Wow, what an amazing concept! No appointments needed, walk in service. I only waited maybe 5 minutes. I ended up becoming a member which my membership is good at over 300 clinics. I will recommend The Joint to all my friends and family!

Horrible place! I called this place asked if I need to make an appointment and that I’m a new patient and the lady told me no just come in and that there open till 4. I rushed in at 3:40 from Sherwood. Guess what the lady was rude and said they don’t see new patients on weekend and can’t see me. This place is terrible. Bad customer service.

So far id been impressed with my treatment here until today. I arrived 10 minutes before they closed at 4pm. They advertise the «5 minute adjustment «after standing there a few minutes the ever pleasant receptionist comes out and i ask «am i too late?» She asks the doctor who says yes because shed already turned off her computer. I state «but youre open until 4pm and im really in pain, im miserable. «To which i was told sorry. So instead of turning her computer back on to serve a patient whos stupidly prepaid for a 6 month course of treatment she chose to let me leave her business in pain. Seriously? I was within their set time parameters. Im pissed. Thinking of demanding a refund and finding a doctor who gives more of a shit about their patients wellbeing.

I’ve been really impressed with The Joint in Murray Scholls. Having seen chiropractors for a couple decades for some serious issues, I can say that these ladies are as good as anyone I’ve seen. And on top of that, they are affordable, so for someone without insurance coverage, I can actually get the care I need. Highly recommended.

Wonderful first experiance with a Chiropractor and also The Joint. I walked in with slight lower back pain and walked out feeling 100x better. The staff was so friendly and calmed my nerves. I highly recommend The Joint if you are looking for a quick adjustment to relieve some pain. If you are a first time visitor utilize their great Introductory Offer by signing up online.

I went to the Joint two days ago and was adjusted by Dr. Nina Pridham. She was awesome! She was the first chiropractor to really tell me what was going on with my back. She showed me some hamstring stretches to do, which will help release some of the tension on my pelvis and with chiropractic adjustments, will get my spine straightened out. When she cracked my back it felt so much better instantly! yesterday was the first day in a long time it felt right to have good posture, usually it hurts after a little while. I see in one of these comments that the joint is the «supercuts» of chiropractic. It is a chain, it is affordable, and I’m sure service really depends on who you get, like supercuts, but this is a classy place, I just hope the chiropractors are the ones making the money here, unlike supercuts or massage envy. If you go here, ask for Dr Pridham, she really knows what she’s doing. I keep telling my boyfriend how good my back feels, I can’t believe it!

I’ve been to many different chiropractic offices now so I know what is good and what is not as well as what a good price is. The Joint has the best prices, hands down, then any other place I’ve used. That being said it’s good to note that they don’t accept insurance, don’t let that deter you though! Their prices very much make up for that. If you can even find insurance that covers chiropractic care, the co-​pay usually runs around $ 30 – 40 a visit. The Joint charges much less and offer amazing deals, what’s better is that you don’t have to sacrifice experience and quality for the better prices. Deb the manager is an absolute doll and is so helpful and friendly you can’t help but smile and Dr. Nina (I don’t remember her last name) was quite skilled and did a fantastic job adjusting me, even on my hard to adjust areas, where other Doctors have had issues. Now the Joint doesn’t use heat or electro shock to loosen you up but they are gentle and experienced and truthfully I’d rather not pay the extra money to have those superfluous amenities. That’s just my opinion, but keep in mind I’ve used many different chiropractors in the past and as far as adjustments go I never really noticed a big difference when using that stuff anyways.
A word of note to someone new to chiropractic care, pony up, spend the money to get an xray and figure out what your skeleton looks like and is up to. Why? It will help you get the most out of your adjustments. After you know what’s out and where, The Joint is the perfect place to visit. That being said, if price is what has been keeping you from getting some spinal maintenance, go visit them. Even without the xray you’re still going to leave feeling better, I personally just like to know what’s going on with my body.

Update to my previous review: There has been a high turnover rate of doctors and that might be off-​putting for some. I get adjusted once a week, so I’ve seen it all happen. Keep reading if you want to know about it.
I started coming to this office in the summer of 2013 when it was Dr. Taylor. He had taken over for a previous doctor that had horrible reviews. Then Dr. Taylor hired Dr. Martin. Dr. Taylor left, out of the blue and to my surprise, and Dr. Martin hired more in succession, but those doctors kept quitting. Even though it was one at a time, she hired at least 4 but none of them lasted more than a few weeks. Currently, it’s now November of 2014, and there are two doctors: Dr. Pudnam on Mon-​Thur and Dr. Schulack on Fri-​Sun. I’ve been adjusted by all the chiropractors (probably 7 or 8 total) and they have ALL done a fine job with my adjustments.
They each have had their own techniques that they prefer to use, and depending on your size or adjustment difficulty, their techniques may or may not suit you best. For example, Dr. Martin used the «thumper» on a couple vertebrae to get them back in place. Dr. Taylor didn’t use a thumper or any device, just his hands for manipulating. Dr. Pudnam uses the «table drop» for adjusting the pelvis. Dr. Schulak uses something almost like a «full Nelson» you might see a wrestler use to adjust the upper thoracic vertebrae. Most of the doctors have used a twist to adjust the sacroiliac area. They have all been friendly, professional, and effective, and they have kept notes on each adjustment so my file stays current. Despite the fact that they see many patients a day, I have seen each doctor try hard to keep a rapport with each patient. All my adjustments have been thorough (not rushed), done with precision and care, firm yet gentle, and I get the relief I need when I feel like my back is out of alignment.
One reviewer wrote about a sub who was nervous and that he had a poor experience with his adjustment. I can’t speak to what happened to him, but I’d like to tell my own experience. Dr. Pudnam started out as a sub when one of the new doctors was «sick». She was literally thrown into the business without anyone showing her the ropes. I was there on her first day as a sub, and her adjustment was fantastic, but I could feel her nervousness through her hands. She was obviously a good chiropractor in her own right but was overwhelmed by being thrown into the business with no help at all and not sure what to expect. The business model of «The Joint» is not the same as a privately owned chiropractic office (and I know this because our dear friend and neighbor back in my hometown was a chiropractor who owned his own chiropractic office and he was the chiropractor we used for our family). She didn’t know how to use their particular computer system and didn’t know how the business was run and didn’t know who to call. She could try to call someone in the administration office of «The Joint» but would be talking to someone in Texas who had never set foot in this particular store. Anyway, my heart went out to her because she was truly learning by fire, but her chiropractic skill and adjustment was spot on. I came back the next week, and surprise! She was still there but no longer a sub; she was now the replacement for that doctor who wasn’t sick — he had simply just quit after only a couple short weeks of being hired. She is still giving great adjustments, and is no longer nervous like she was in the beginning. It appears that she’s got her feet on the ground with the business now. Dr. Schulack was hired soon after Dr. Pudnam. He has a casual, laid back personality. He jokes with my children and also gives a good adjustment. Even though Dr. Martin’s name is still on the window of the office, I’m not sure that she is there anymore. She hasn’t been seen since the summer.

Friendliest staff ever! I got a great and much needed adjustment from Dr. Nina. Deb was super nice and gave me options to fit my needs. It was clean and I had a great experience. Thank you!

I highly recommend this place. The new Dr that took over for the last one is by far my favorite chiropractor I have been to. She (Carole) is laid back but direct with adjustments. The office staff is over the top in regards to friendly. I have only had to wait a few times due to patient needs. With the expanded hours there is never a time that I cannot be seen. I drive from Gresham jus to see Carole. Try it out for yourself before making a decision based only on reviews, that’s only fair to each side.

I recently moved to Oregon, and hadn’t had an adjustment in over four months. Due to two bad car accidents, I usually need adjustments twice a month. Here on vacation and finally could not stand another minute without an adjustment.
It was a relief to find this place on Unilocal,and know that I could walk in and be seen without x-​rays or exam fees.
The office is nice, the staff is very nice, and Dr. Taylor was very compassionate and professional. He took a lot of time discussing my issues, even though I live too far away from this office to become a regular patient.
As other reviewers have mentioned, this is a good spot for someone who is familiar with chiropractic, who does not have serious underlying health issues or herniated disks, and who appreciates a reasonable price and the convenience of dropping in.
If I lived in Beaverton they would be my chiropractors for sure!

I have been to this location a few times now. The atmosphere is very calm and pleasant. The latest chiro is a good guy and seems to listen to my needs very well. In fact, he is a much better adjuster than the last guy. I feel better already! I highly recommend The Joint. They offer a very pleasant experience at an affordable cost. Likes include the cost and ease of scheduling. Cons, are limited only by my decision making of their convenient schedule! = no CONS! Try these guys. I own a business and I get it. They are legit! J

This is fourth chiropractor I’ve been to in my life. Two wanted $ 50-​$ 60 per adjustment and wanted me to come in few times a week. Another in rural farm said I only needed to be seen once or twice a year… So needless to say I was confused how often was in best of my interest. I have no pain or spine discomfort but wanted preventative care and maintenance. So when I found Groupon deal I decided to give it a try. Member fee of $ 50 month for 4 adjustments were affordable too.
Office was easy to find, and accessible for public transport (#62 dropped me off) Place is clean and had sufficient space to get work done up to three patients at a time. I filled out forms and was seen within 15 minutes. We briefed over my past care, concern, and condition. He noted all misalignment mentioned by my previous providers. I was done and put to catch the next bus in timely manner. My spine no longer feels tense and I’m looking forward to next visit. Have seven more visits to see if this will be my primary care.

Zach is great the prices are fantastic and they have locations in all the cities i travel to!:) SOLD!:)

This place sucks. Save yourself the time and money… This is like the Wal Mart/​McDonalds of chiropractic care… The 5 star reviewer must be on the payroll… The office looks nice is the only positive thing I have to say. «No waiting or appointments»? That should be your first indication that this is not quality. Ever had a walk in hair appointment? Usually sucks… Good, quality professionals are booked weeks in advance. You can’t even get a walk in massage in this town!

My consultation was short, like 3 mins tops, and lacking. Shortest conversation I ever had with a «doctor» about my health. Doc needs to work on interpersonal communication skills and honing his craft.
I got an adjustment. Was it the best? No. Did I get what I paid for? Probably. Lets just say: I used a $ 24 GroupOn for a consultation and 4 adjustments, I did not go back for my other 3.
A pitch of theirs is no appointments necessary. In theory, that sounds good, but then how good is it going to be if you have a waiting room full of people?
If you are looking to supplement your holistic healthcare with quality chiropractic, pass up this «joint».
