Pain & Posture Correction Clinic

Thank goodness for Dr. Lori Prescott, Dr. Jacob Paredes and Dr. Josh Paredes! A recent car accident left me with a severely sore right arm, neck, shoulder and back pain, as well as very disconcerting numbness and tingling in my hands and fingers. I even had shooting pains in my legs, and insomnia the first few nights. Through gentle manipulation proceeded by muscle stimulation, the good doctors of Pain & Posture Correction Clinic (conveniently situated in the heart of Irvine’s Woodbridge neighborhood) alleviated the numbness and tingling within two weeks, and we are ramping up the adjustments now to keep me comfortable and in the swing of things as I begin to heal. Highly recommended for anyone who has ever had injuries or illnesses affecting the spinal column.

I am glad that Dr. Prescott pointed out that I had scoliosis when I came into for a massage. My back and neck were very misaligned, but it is getting better quicker than expected. I also enjoy the massages!

Dr. Lori Prescott was supposed to show up and give the office a free 15 min massage. This whole event was set up by the National Health Bureau. Funny thing… she never showed up, no phone call, no email, nothing!!! After reading another review about the work she did I’m glad she never came.
Thanks Ms. Prescott, for nothing.

I went to Brunelle Chiropractic a few years ago for a massage and loved it. The doctor and the staff were so friendly! I then bought a Groupon and was excited to go back. My experience with the new owner, Dr. Prescott, was not a positive one and the new office staff was not as friendly as the previous receptionists. I met with the DR for a consultation and adjustment, and she basically told me that because I’m a student I would not be able to afford her services, even with the student discount. After I left, I felt completely insulted that she made this assumption and the fact that she wasn’t willing to work with me to keep my business. I then bought a Groupon from Oola Moola for a massage about a year later, and decided I would give the office another chance since I would only be meeting with the massage therapist. The Groupon was expiring in a week and when I called and explained the situation to the receptionist she handed the phone to the DR. The DR stated that they will lose money and this was not possible. I asked if I could redeem the code prior to my appointment so they could get paid (this was what I had done for my previous appointment). She was extremely rude and said her office staff must not have known for my last appointment and she would not do that. For the SECOND time, she lost my business. After having worked at a chiropractor’s office before, I was appalled by the way they were treating potential clients.
I then called another chiropractic office listed on Oola Moola, Miller Family Chiropractic in Costa Mesa, and they were SO accommodating! They honored the Groupon, even though my appointment would be after the expiration date, and they were WONDERFUL. The DR, staff, and massage therapist were SO friendly. I was not going to write a Unilocal review, yet after the amazing experience I had at this other office I realized how important it is to warn other people from having the horrible experience I did with Brunelle Chiropractic.

I bought a voucher from Spreebird for an hour massage. I gave it a shot and boy, I’m surely happy and satisfied. I got lost when I tried to find the building cause it was way back inside some building complex. Grateful for the receptionist who guided me by stayed on the phone with me until I find their office.
The staff is nice and helpful. I don’t do the consultation with Lori the chiropractor but she greet me it so welcoming. I got Ashley as my massage therapist and she is really GOOD. Her hand is just so perfect for me, I’m a petite and kind of skinny so can’t be too rough for me but I do have some tense on my neck and shoulder and she sure got the right spots.
I’ll come back for sure!

Came here after getting Groupon deal of 29 $ for an hour of massage and chiro consultation. I didn’t get any Chiro consultation as I had no need.
My massage was very good the masseuse was polite and knew what she was doing. She was able to sense the tension and adjusted pressure as required.
Overall a very good experience and will repeat whenever I will get similar deal.

I’ve known Lori for many years and she is one of the most caring and competent doctors that I know. I have been treated by Lori many times and she is very effective in detecting what is causing the pain and how to bring relief. I have referred many people to her and will continue to do so.

This place is pretty awesome. I got a great deal on a massage. The massage therapist did a really great job. She focused on all the problem areas that I told her about. The upper right side of my back had been hurting for weeks but after I got adjusted by Dr. Prescott it felt better instantly. I definitely felt like I got pampered. The staff was very friendly and the place was spotless.

Do not go here!!! They called our company last year and offered our employees complimentary 15 minute massages at our office. They told us they would not do any advertising since it was set up through a third party and would only need each participant to fill out a sheet that gave a very brief current medical history /​waiver to make sure they were ok to be worked on. The day came and our employees received their treatments and all was fine… so we thought…
The days that followed were the beginning of a nightmare. Most of the colleagues that received a massage complained of serious pain in their backs/​necks etc… and that the masseuse was too aggressive.
Every day for the next month, Their office called our offices main line non stop asking for every one of our employees to set up a follow up appointment/​consultation etc… and it wouldn’t stop!!! anyone that provided their cell phone number got stalked on that number too, no matter how much they spoke of their disinterest.
No matter how many times we told them to stop calling the office, they continued to call. The receptionist was pushy, rude and manipulative when even I expressed that I would not come in for an appointment.
The crazy thing is, they just left me a voice mail this week asking to come back for another round! I cannot believe they have the nerve to come back to harass us some more!!!
stay far away!!!

I have to say… Dr. Lori Prescott and the staff are just wonderful people! It is SO hard to find people who truly care about their patients the way that Dr. Prescott and All of her staff do. They are always on top of their game, and consistently good and always remember you!!! They see so many patients a day, and they remember each and every one!!! It really is an art and they have perfected it. I feel like they are my second family!!! First you are greeted my Jaimie at the front desk (always happy, always smiling and the SWEETEST personality ever!) then if your lucky enough to get a massage by Ashley (enjoy every second of it!) you will walk out a happy camper to the drop table where dr. Prescott or one of her talented sons will adjust you. You will NOT be disappointed with this office! Trust me! Their the best!!! Take my word for it!!! I’ve been coming here for a few months now and just love it!!!

Fiancé bought me a massage here so since I had MLK day off decided to go and use the deal. Ashley was my masseuse and she was very nice and polite. She asked me if there was something specific she wanted me to work on. I told her I was just there to relax and she got to work. I can see from other peoples reviews that they felt like the massage was too much pressure. I felt the same way throughout my massage. I did ask her at one point to use less pressure and it worked a little bit. Overall my experience was still good and I would go back if I had another deal. I would just tell her from the beginning that I wanted very light pressure. Only other cons was that there was a clock in the room and if you listened to it you could here the tick rock very second and when you flipped over on your back they didn’t cover your eyes from the light.

Got a Groupon for $ 29 for a 1 hour massage with chiro consultation. Nothing special about the consultation. I’m not experiencing pain so there was nothing to treat.
The massage therapist was top notch. She asked me where I was in pain/​had soreness (shoulders and neck, very common for office work environment). She was very strong and concentrated on the spots I specified. I wasn’t much of a fan of the leg massage, but it seems that all therapists do this. She didn’t talk much except to ask me to move a certain way or to tell me to turn over. I liked that. I’ve never liked chatty massage therapists. I find it so odd to have convos with someone touching you while you’re naked. Maybe that’s just me. The clock ticking in the massage room was a bit distracting for me since it was pretty loud, even with the calming music she had playing. And you can hear the rest of the office chit chatting outside the door. But keep in mind this us a chiropractic office not a spa.
After I was done the front desk nurse informed me that my insurance covers massages. Since I have such a high deductible she said I could purchase 5 massages at $ 29 each and it would qualify as an HSA purchase. Or I could get 10 for an additional 10% off. I opted for the 5. Sweet. Massages tax free!

Although I liked Dr Prescott, I was seriously appalled at the terrible service and the disgusting treatment that I received from the receptionist! I have been asking for my X-​Rays for over a month because I have been going to a new doctor, and not only did they lie about having sent them, the receptionist also proceeded to yell at me about how consistent my phone calls have been. That is no way to treat a a patient, whether former or present! I had been a fan of the office and even referred some friends there, but I will never say anything positive about Brunelle Chiropractic again. In fact, I highly recommend staying away from this unprofessional establishment!

I, too, bought the Amazon Local deal which included a massage and consultation. Ashley, the masseuse, used just the right amount of pressure and asked me whether I wanted more or less. Dr. Prescott analyzed my situation (I fell on my hands and knees) as I had a misalignment. This made sense, as I only bruised one knee, and it’s been a few months, I had been to a few weeks of physical therapy, and no consistent improvement. She did adjust me (it cost an extra fee) and I actually felt better right away.

I went to Brunelle Chiropractic after purchasing a deal from Amazon. I had had some pain in my neck and lower back, so it was perfectly timed… I thought. The deal was supposed to cover a consultation, an adjustment, and a massage. The only bright spot of the appointment was the receptionist. She was friendly, engaging, and helpful.
I had my massage first, since they were especially busy that day. The masseuse was polite and asked where I wanted her to focus. I told her about my neck and my back, and she got started. From there, it all went downhill. I prefer light-​to-​medium pressure and said that before the massage started. «Firm» wouldn’t even begin to describe the pressure she used. I felt like I was being tortured by the KGB for government secrets. I asked her two different times to use a lighter touch, but it didn’t change anything. She was hurting me so much, I nearly slapped her hand away. I walked out of there sore and bruised across my neck and upper back. She didn’t even touch my lower back.
After the massage, I got dressed and waited for my consultation. Because I used to go to a chiropractor for years in high school and college, Dr. Prescott met with me for less than five minutes. I have different insurance than Brunelle Chiropractic takes, so I’m assuming that’s the reason she didn’t go any further with her ‘consultation.’ I went back to the front, and they essentially sent me home. Once I was outside, I realized I hadn’t even gotten the adjustment, which was my primary focus. I was in so much pain from the massage, I decided to cut my losses and go home.
I would never return to Brunelle Chiropractic, and I would strongly suggest you stay far away, unless torture is your kind of thing.

If I could post a negative star I would. I started going to Brunelle Chiro, when Dr. Brunelle owned the practice, and it was great. I loved both Dr. Brunelle, and Dr. Sandu. Dr Sandu was my main man there. Then, Dr Prescott bought the practice, and it became an uncomfortable place to go to. She has a big ego, and attitude. Had trouble with billing from her, and noticed charges to insurance company, that were more than I had done. My co-​pay was the same; but insurance company paid out more than they were supposed to. I am glad that she is no longer associated with Dr. Sandu, and I am now happy to continue with Dr. Sandu. Unless you want to be ripped off, and not adjusted well, don’t go to her at the 33 Creek Road. Go to Dr. Sandu, he cares about you, and your health

Dr, Prescott and her staff are always efficient, knowledgeable, and SUPER Friendly! They are clearly devoted to their work and to helping people feel better. I have been through 6 chiropractors in Irvine and I am happy to finally have found Dr. P. Having grown up with chiropractic care, I’m picky, so that’s saying A LOT!
Her passion really comes through in her work. Give her a try!

DR. PRESCOTT IS A LIAR. She lied to me and she will lie to you. She is not at this address anymore, but she is trying to steal patients and take them to her address by telling horrible lies to them.
If someone tries to send you to 33 Creek suite 230 in Irvine to see Lori Prescott DO NOT GO THERE. She does not know how to take care of patients and she is a liar. So is her receptionist.
Also, my neck is killing me now. Thanks so much «doctor» Prescott!
FYI: Doctor Prescott also billed my insurance for visits in which I did not see her and even billed for the visit where she lied to me about the whereabouts of my real doctor and when she tried to adjust my neck. She went about it all wrong, I was in terrible pain and asked immediately for assurance that I would not be charged for the visit. Well, I was charged. So was my insurance. Once for $ 400, once for $ 300, once for $ 175 and another time for nearly $ 300. I had to fight with my insurance company to let them know they were fraudulent charges.
Huge pain in the ass. I love that she finally changed her address, since she was trying to piggyback off the old doctor’s Unilocal account. Pretty sad. Glad I saw this update.

If you suffer for pain this is the place to go. The whole office staff is extremely nice. Went in when i threw out my back and within visits i was feeling back to my old self. Dr. Sandhu is amazing. Very professional and really explains why you are hurting and in pain. Most importantly he explains how to fix it and prevent this from happening again. Highly Recommend!!!

Bad experience with the Chiropractor. Three appointments for a consultation and still no adjustment. The chiropractor was late by at least 30 minutes each time. One time strolling in with starbucks. He blamed the office staff all 3 times.
If you value your time– stay clear of this place.
I do have mixed feeling leaving a bad review because the sports massage guy was friggen awesome! He was professional and skilled. I would go back to see him if it didn’t stress me out so much to think of how the chiropractor pissed me off. (And I’m still pissed!!!)
