Prowellness

Not even close. By far the best Chiro in South Bay. I had my chiropractor move to Redondo and wanted a closer option. Dreading the change, I now wish someone had referred me sooner.
As in, years ago.
From the range of equipment to the range of services and attention to details you never got before — this place is fantastic. With a sports injury or active lifestyle focus, Julia and Doug make sure to pick up on every posture or pose, and adjust (yes, I know) accordingly. I walk out feeling better, healthier and thankful.
My new Chiropractor.

Diane Kim is wonderful, as a skeptic of Eastern medicine her attention to detail and her skills in acupuncture have turned me around. The process has been great.

I was having some serious problems with my neck, could not turn my head and sleep was impossible, intense pain!
I called them and they let me come in the same day (within the hour) and received treatment right away.
The doctor was great, she explained things before working on me and I felt so much better after the treatment.
I have a follow-​up appointment and my neck seems back to normal.
Really happy that I found Dr. Julia!

If you’re on the fence about whether or not to consider chiropractic care, get off the fence, hobble to your car, and drive to Dr. Julia’s office! :P
EVERYONE at Pro Wellness is friendly and pleasant, the level of care is above and beyond what I have ever experienced from a chiropractor in the past and the office is SO clean. The wait time is almost always either non-​existant or minimal. I have never had a long wait in this office… and that’s saying something because from the looks of things they’re usually very busy. How they do it, I don’t know, but I’m impressed!
There is PLENTY of on site parking (free) and the location is easy to find.
It’s SUCH a blessing to have health care providers that you can trust. Dr. Julia is fantastic. She has helped not only me, but other members of my family and we love her!
Her adjustments are gentle but EFFECTIVE and have made an incredible difference at times when I was in a lot of pain.
I used to have mixed emotions about going to the chiropractor and now I am a convert… I would recommend Dr. Julia to anyone!
Are you driving to her office yet? You are? Put down your phone and watch the road! :P

Found Dr. Julia and team upon researching K-​Laser treatment options. I am seeing promissing results for my trigger finger/​thumb and plantar fasciitis with the K-​Laser and Graston Technique. Friendly staff and easy payment and insurance billing options. I highly recommend.

My grandma first brought me here because I have spinal problems, and I am so happy I went. It’s my grandmas favorite chiropractor, out of all the ones she has been too. I now come here on a regular basis because every time I see Dr. Moen, she is so kind and my back pain goes away. She’s a miracle worker, and such a positive person it will even brighten up you’re day meeting her.

Love getting adjustments by Dr. Julia. She does an examination and asks if there is anything that has changed during every visit. They do the standard e-​stim and heating pads to start the appointment.
This is the first chiropractic I have found that doesn’t make you feel it’s all about the money she can get from you/​your insurance. I had a billing question/​issue and Dr Julia spoke with me herself during the same phone call. I haven’t had service like that from a chiro in LA before her!

A friend recommended that I go see Dr Charlie when I woke up one morning with numb fingers.
I work out a lot (Weight training, yoga, zumba, pilates) so I didn’t think much of it until the shooting pain in my arm and numb fingers caused more concern than I wanted and it wasn’t going away.
Dr Charlie is great, I can’t say enough about his understanding demeanor and over all great personality. I am kind of a Chiropractic chicken– but I am happy to say that my injury is cured– No more shooting pain and no more numb fingers! Yay!
Go see Dr Charlie– He and his Team are great people!

I’m a WUSS when it comes to needles, but I LOVE going in for treatments at ProWellness. It’s not painful at ALLLLLLL.
OVERALL HEALTH & BODY: Diane plops you comfortable on a bed and you basically lay back and relax while listening to the soothing yogi music. I have a serious insomnia problem. I get stressed super easily cuz I am sort of an anal person. I can’t handle the stress, which leads to sleeping problems. I think about it ALLLLL NIGHT. That’s when acupuncture is THE BEST THING ON EARTH! I also have low blood pressure. Diane will sit you down and go over your diet and your lifestyle with you… not in the intimidating way… maybe it’s cuz she’s younger that she understands that ppl in their 30s don’t have the best… ahem…liver and lung… She gives you great positive advice that makes you wanna better your lifestyle.
And may I tell u my FAVVVVVVV part??? The CUPPING!!! OMG… i never knew about cupping until I started coming here last year. I LOVE CUPPING! Wayyyyyyyyy better than massages. ALL the aches are gone after you get CUPPED.
My boyfriend sees Diane every week for his feet. He has major feet issues. His feet hurt… when he stands… after about 7 treatments, the pain was gone. He still goes to make sure that the pain doens’t come back in the future. I think he just likes going in. The service there… they make u feel like a king. Kkkkk.
So, if you’re hurting anywhere, go see Diane. She’ll fix you up in an hour. It’s like MAGIC. You have insurance? Then go. Why not?! Don’t be stupid.
NECK: I needed alignment work. I was barely able to sit at my desk for more than an hour. I went to a different chiropractor who treated me for 3 months. He made me buy a pillow to help my neck. It wasn’t working so I saw Julia (whom Diane recommended). 1 treatment. 10 cracks or so. And VOILEEEEE!!! I was brought back into life! I no longer had a crank in my neck. I thought my bone was sticking out of my neck… but Julia adjusted it perfectly and NOW, I can work without complaining hahaha ;P

Dr. Harper is an awsome Chiropractor. My back always feels great after he adjusts my spine!

Anastasia is absolutely and simply remarkable. I am a hairdresser and I had what felt to be pain that shot up and down my back like fire. It’s gone! I feel like a newborn baby when I sleep now. I can’t remember the last time I ever felt this great. I can swim and workout with ease. My life is pain free all due to Anastasia. She knows every part of the human body and how things connect and what else needs to be worked the next time you come in. My hips were in pain a bit on my 2^nd visit and I can now bend all the way down with absolutely no pain at all, not even a pinch! Aaaahhh! Life is great again. I would definately recommend Anastasia to everyone, even my co workers and clients alike. Thank Anastasia, you gave me back my life, no kidding. I feel amazing!!!

I’m not one to be a believer without physical proof, so when it comes to needles making things better or holistic this or holistic that, I say «Psss fuuuggetabout it» like Donnie Brasco.
However, after undergoing a major surgery and becoming numb, I became desperate in finding a solution. When a friend told me about Diane, and how she helped with his shoulder pain, he told me to go see her and seek treatment for the numbness I was dealing with. With nothing to lose, I called and made an appointment.
The receptionists were very nice, the front area was very clean, and the treatment area was very relaxing and nicely decorated as well. I definitely would have walked out if the place was unclean or shabby looking, esp when there are going to be needles sticking in my precious body! You can say I am slightly OCD about cleanliness…
Back to the point: Diane was very friendly and had good bed side manners. She made me feel comfortable and was very educated about the human body. She wasn’t that new age weird doctor who tells people that she will do some hokus pokus, push on my arm, and hold a sack of crystals, and you shall be better type, which I was half expecting, but THANK GOODNESS, she wasn’t. She was straightforward, she answered all of my questions, and then she worked her magic with her needles.
After 5 treatments, I can say I am getting some feeling back! This is after my own surgeon told me he didn’t think it was possible, especially due to my age. You see, the older you get, the lower chances you have of getting your feelings back after surgery. I don’t think I am old, not THAT old, but I guess all old people say that.
Anyhow, I will continue to see Diane, and hopefully will regain full feeling. So far, she has treated with needle therapy, moxa for blood circulation, and with electrical needles. THANK YOU Diane! I am now a believer!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Julia & Diane the acupuncturist for roughly 2 months now. I’ve been a huge proponent of chiropractic care & Western medicine for over 20 years due to chronic lower back issues involving my discs & spine. I’ve experienced great, good & bad chiros. With the latter sometimes doing more damage than good.
Being new to the area, finding a great chiro can be hit or miss, lucky for me I checked Unilocall The reviews really helped and were right on point.
Dr. J uses the K Laser on my lower back and this has been a first for me, but I can really feel an improvement in my symptoms. I’ve always been a little skeptical of female chiros because I’m 6’2″, 195lbs and athletic and never thought a delicate doctor could adjust me… Boy was I WRONG!!! Dr. J is an athlete, she’s strong, exceptionally smart, and really knows what’s she doing! Both Dr. J & Diane really take their time to listen to you, and put together a treatment program for your needs. BTW I went to an Orthopedic doc & Pain Medicine specialist within the past 2 weeks, and the only thing out of their could give a shit mouths, were «spinal epidural & surgery», and neither explained any procedures… There’s a reason I only prefer Chiros, Acupuncture, Rolfing and Massage, it seems these body workers actually care what you have to say & the choices you want to make,
I get both treatments once a week & as I mentioned the improvements have definitely been noticeable. Diane is an excellent practitioner of Western medicine, and as Dr. J, she really listens to you. If only MDs had the same approach to how they treat their patients!
10 STARS for the Pros @ Prowellness!

I am so glad that I have come to find this office. Dr. Julia, (Dr. J), has been able to piece me back together again. I’ve had a bad year trying to keep active and Dr. J has been able to get me back to good health. Sort of like Humpty Dumpty if you know what I mean…
I’ve never had a cold laser until this past year when I became injured with a hematoma while playing soccer. Sigh… much discomfort but the the attention I received was sincere and I felt that the office staff really cared about me.
The office is just the right size, located in Redondo Beach off of Diamond and Prospect. I am able to get late evening appointments and I am very happy with the attention from the office and the care of Dr. J.

Dr. Charlie is the best. I was very nervous about chiropractic treatment, and he slowly explained everything and was very gentle with me. Also at Pro Wellness is Anastasia, a medical massage therapist, who is an angel; also very sensitive, and very talented. Now that I know how much better I can feel, I will be a regular at Pro Wellness!

I have been going to Dr. Julia for several years now, and she has really helped relieve a lot of pain and suffering I’ve had. I have been in several car accidents (gotta love those LA drivers who like to rear-​end and sideswipe you!) and always go back to her to help crack me back into place! Before seeing her, I was having chronic back and neck pain, and suffering from terrible migraines. I also had a bad ankle injury a few years ago that she helped with her cold-​laser treatments. :) She helped me to see that my hips were misaligned due to my constant limping when I injured my ankle, and helped adjust me so that I could walk normally again! I highly recommend her and ProWellness to anyone in LA! I drive an hour to see her, but it is worth it! Totally affordable, and everyone there is always happy and positive.

My husband & I have been seeing Diane Kim for acupuncture therapy for several years. My husband has been seeing Diane for somewhere around 3 years while I just started seeing her about 6 – 8 months ago. My husband has been dealing with several health issues over the past 10 years and they have been gradually improving over these last few. Those of note, would be his asthma, which he has not needed to take medication for in about 2+ years (he had been on asthma meds for the previous 25 years). The next big thing was his night sweats. He used to have excessive night sweats almost every night in which I would have to wipe his face with a towel and have him change his t-​shirt. Those have completely stopped. In addition, the acupuncture therapy has helped speed up the healing process of his sports related injuries (his knees, foot, wrist, shoulders) that pain meds such as Advil and naproxen don’t help. Other things that have improved are ringing in the ears, stiff necks, hand/​finger pain, stress management, and anxiety. Of course they are still working on things, but his health is improving nonetheless.
For myself, I didn’t think I needed acupuncture as I had thought I was in pretty good health. However, certain things that were lingering that I thought was normal have improved. So it turns out that I wasn’t in great health to begin with. Of note, my emotions have been so much better. I am an emotional person (ask any of my friends & family), but acupuncture has really changed my outlook and how I respond to situations. I no longer get sudden periods of extreme sadness, nor do I blow up in anger as much. These emotions went from a daily thing to now a rarity (maybe 1 – 2 x month at most). In addition, she has helped heal my stomach bloatedness and leg inflammation when from overexertion. My back pain from sitting a lot at school & standing a lot at work has improved. One small thing (but important to me) is that my finger/​hand/​wrist pain that I was having from excessive hand writing at school is now gone. It improved within 24 hours of my first therapy session. That was enough to bring me back and become a regular.
Finally Diane has helped with my dizzy spells. I used to get dizzy for about 10 – 20 seconds on a daily basis after I exercise and then eat my first few bits of food (happened whether I eat right after exercise or long after exercise; whether I work out hard or light; whether I eat before or not, it just always happened). However, it gradually improved and within 1 – 2 months of the acupuncture therapy, I no longer got dizzy spells after exercising nor when eating. This went from 20 – 30 times a month to 0 times a month.
Now as far as a person and a professional, Diane is great. She is very kind and down to earth, and is a normal person just a like you and me. She will give positive reinforcement and pick you up mentally when you are down. She is non-​intimidating and very comforting. You really can’t ask for anything more. If you are thinking about getting acupuncture for the first time, we do highly recommend Diane as you want an acupuncturist you can trust.
Keep in mind that acupuncture does not work the same for everybody. Some respond better or more quickly than others. Don’t expect everything to heal and reverse itself after one or two visits. If you have had certain health related conditions, they took time to create themselves and they will need some time to heal. We think of our acupuncture sessions almost as a trip to the spa and look forward to our visits.

I personally doubted acupuncture/​eastern medicine but was referred to Prowellness by a friend after he saw Diane for a sports injury and I can say after visiting her is wow!
Diane was wonderful, great at treating holistic pain. She’s treated me for a wide variety of injuries including shoulder problems, wrist problems and chronic back pain. You have to visit Prowellness and see Diane. She actually cares about you as a person and does a fantastic job. I would highly recommend her to anybody.

CALLING DR. DIANE KIM! please report. stat! ^_^
One of the best doctors to provide acupuncture and holistic medicine. I love going in to see her. I walk out of the clinic feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. She’s gentle, but boy~ can she hit the spot! I wish i can see her EVERYDAY!
She has helped me with digestion problems and muscle aches/​tensions. She’s very attentive and truly cares about her patients. I find myself feeling calm and relaxed when in her office.
Few weeks ago, I tried the cupping treatment. Some of my friends have had this procedure done by other doctors and mentioned it to be a bit painful, therefore, I was a little nervous about getting it done. But when I got it done with Dr. Kim, I didn’t feel a thing. She’s very poised and confident in her work, which makes me trust her 100%!
It’s really hard to find great doctors that you can trust. She’s one of a kind and truly one of the best i’ve tried!

I’m a healthy male that works out everyday and I hardly ever suffer from injuries but recently the back of my neck/​shoulder area was in serious pain. I couldn’t look up because i would feel a stabbing pain behind the back of my neck/​shoulder area. It would bring my mood down and i didn’t want to do anything. i waited 3 weeks because I thought the pain would go away but it didn’t so I called up ProWellness.
I made an appointment before I got there and they saw me as soon as I arrived. The facility was clean and everyone was kind.
A doctor by the name of Diane Kim treated me. I told her what and where the pain was, after feeling on my upper back/​neck/​should area she told me that I had a muscle spasm on the back of my neck.
She started off with acupuncture and I couldn’t feel a thing. She was REALLY good. I laid there for about 30 minutes and then she began the cupping therapy. I laid there for about another 15 minutes and that was the end of my treatment.
After the treatment in about 45 minutes I already started to feel much better and was able to move my neck freely and look up again. I definitely recommend this place to anyone that needs chiropractic treatment.
