Placentia-Linda Chiropractic Center

I came in to get some work done and was not very pleased with the overall service. The person working on me was not the actual doctor and considering I had Graston work done on me i would have expected to be treated by a certified professional.

Just had an awesome Massage by Andrew. I went in with a with a stiff neck and shoulder pain after my massage I could move my neck! I have been suffering for months now with tension headaches and shoulder pain, I am pain free and feeling so great. THANK YOU ANDREW!

Was having pain in my back and decided it was time to see someone! It was my very first time at a chiropractor so I was freaked out at the thought of someone Cracking my back and neck! Dr. Alan was absolutely amazing! Took great care of me, Was extremely friendly, made me feel comfortable and took time explaining things to me and answering my questions! You can tell hes someone who is passionate about what he does! Will definitely be back to him.

There are Chiropractors, physical therapists and everything in-​between, and then there is Doctor RYAN and the amazing Staff at Placentia-​Linda Chiropractic Center. i have been suffering with chronic neck and shoulder pain for years — and I do mean years. I had a regular Chiropractor that I saw once or twice a month — he was a great and neat man — I thought he was helping me, but I NEVER seemed to get any better. So I suffered and was basically told I was going to have to live with this weakness for the rest of my life — Like a fool, I accepted my «condition.»
Dr Ryan was recommended to us by a nutritionist to help my daughter with shoulder and neck pain. After a few visits of therapy I witnessed her getting a whole lot better. I finally caved in and told Dr Ryan about the condition of my neck and shoulders. He dug in and did amazing therapy using ultra sound, electrode therapy — including an adjustment — but it was the message and physical therapy technique that completely transformed my condition. That was about 2 or 3 years ago! I am not saying i am totally pain free, but the difference is night and day. Instead of 15 visits a year or more to the chiropractor, i think I have had doctor Ryan work on my neck and shoulders one or two times since my initial visits and therapy.
If helping my chronic neck pain wasn’t enough, I have also been suffering with horrible problems with my feet. I have the flattest and most painful feet in the world — bad as bad can be, especially my right foot that has a medium sized bunion. If you don’t believe how bad and flat my feet are, just ask doctor Ryan! Anyway, he did miracles with my neck and back issues, so I asked him if he would be able to help me with my feet. He mentioned that 50 percent of his cliental came in for feet related problems.
So a few months ago, Dr Ryan began therapy on my feet including my that nasty bunion on my right toe. It has taken probably 10 to 15 visits. But under the care of doctor Ryan my feet have improved dramatically. Granted, I have had to do my «Homework» so to speak, that means icing, stretching, and «exercising» my feet, but my pain level and the health of my feet have finally taken a turn for the better. The pain is under control and i can function so much better now — I still have the bunion mind you, but it is smaller and a whole lot better. I could just kick myself for not bringing this issue up to him sooner, there was no need for me to have put up with all of this pain and discomfort. But i suppose it is better late than never, and I have learned a valuable lesson
Without a doubt, Dr Ryan and the incredible staff at Placentia Chiropractic have helped me, my family and all the friends I have sent them for treatment. So please, do yourself a huge favor: if you are in pain, and are sick of it, and want to get better, please go see Doctor Ryan. And at all costs, avoid any kind of SURGERY — including Bunion surgery. Honestly, I can’t guarantee you that Dr Ryan can fix «every» condition, all i know is he has helped me deal with my pain and discomfort — that I thought I had to live with. Dr Ryan is honest, and if he can help you, he will, if not then he will give it to you straight. He’s a great guy, knowledgeable, has amazing integrity (as in he is not in the business to make a quick buck off you) and is a rarity in this profession. He truly is «into» his profession to help people get better! Yeah, hard to believe, but true!!!
Again, you can just live with your pain and discomfort, or you can do something about it! You have nothing to lose by paying a visit to doctor Ryan, and everything to gain. Oh, and remember to tell Dr Ryan that Michael W sent you — if anything, it will make me happy to know that someone took my advise!

Dr. Koehler gave me the best adjustment I’ve ever had. He really cared about what was going on with me, and listened to every thing I had to say. I was nervous the first time I got adjusted because I didn’t know what to expect, but he was not forceful at all. And I still got a great adjustment. Now I am headache free and go all the time to keep my immune system strong. I hardly ever get sick now.

I bought a groupon for an hour massage. I told the therapist she was applying too much pressure but she continued. Literally I’m sore all over my back and feel worse than I went in.

Got a massage with Andrew and I didn’t like it one bid. Had to agree with one of the reviews that he talked and tried to ask too much. Besides that, his way of massaging was just rubbing lotion on me. A lot of just long strokes with no massaging squeeze or pressure into the muscles. It doesn’t seem like he was an experienced massage therapist to me. I thought to give this place a try instead of a massage spa. Needless to say I was disappointed.

Just had to tell the staff at the office how happy I a with the results of their taking care of me. Brent and Ryan were wonderful in their different therapy techniques. I went in to see them because of tendinitis in the right arm and then a shoulder problem. I am now sleeping at night and not waking up when I roll over from the pain and being able to do other things without pain.
they used several different techniques on me including ART Active release techniques, Muscle Stimulation, and laser Therapy which really zeroed in on the area needing help. The ice therapy always helped and they taught me to do some exercises at home as well as icing it at home also. they also have a super massage department. i went to Amelia. Tanks guys for all you did for me. now i will just see them for follow ups to keep me on the right path. Thanks again. heather Ferber

Excellent chiropractic care.
I have been seeing Dr Ryan for a chronic neck/​upper back problem that gives me headaches, neckaches, tension, & sometimes nausea.
Compared to other chiropractors (I’ve been thru 6 before him), he targets the root of the problem. His goal is to fix the problem & for you not be dependent on chiropractic care. Even his explanation doesn’t sound like he is selling something (others have tried to lock me into packages & unending maintenance treatments. I’ve spent a lot w/​o relief :(…)
He has focused on loosening the muscle then retraining its movements so that they pull the spine the correct way, permanently.
His medical explanations reflect a very thorough understanding of the musculoskeletal groups & the body’s natural ways of adapting. (I’m a nurse). He also seems to have gotten excellent residency training from working with veterans @ the VA in west LA.
I have also observed integrity in his practice (not just trying to sell, honest about what you need to do, etc)

I told Andrew (the massage therapist) what my concerns were and he took them very seriously. What I didn’t appreciate was that he spoke way too much before the massage, and counted that as time for the session. During the massage, I told him twice to lighten the pressure, and he did for those two spots, but then continued to have deep pressure throughout the rest of my body. I woke up this morning with my back feeling extremely sore, and with what feels like bruises on the bottom of my head. He then continued to talk way too much at the end of the session, which he probably also counted as time included. He also needs to work on his eye contact skills. He would look at me for two seconds, and then looked elsewhere, which was kind of unsettling. I appreciated that he was nice, very thorough, and took my concerns to heart, but it would have been better if he wasn’t trying to treat me like he was kneading bread or something.

Andrew is an amazing massage therapist and the other staff at this place are also very nice, knowledgeable and helpful.
Got a livingsocial deal for a one hour sports massage, called ahead and the office was very accommodating with my crazy schedule. I have hip and knee joint pain from a sports injury when I was young and it acts up constantly. Like many people, I ignore it until I can’t anymore, and that’s when I came in to see Andrew. He asked me many questions before the massage about my pain points and the previous injuries, and asked what I would like from the massage. He then proceeded to work on me for an hour with a variety of techniques.
I was sore right afterwards, but the following day I felt 10 times better, and the pain went away. Really happy with the massage and I highly recommend Andrew!

In the passed 10 years I had been to 4 different Chiropractic Doctors and I thought they were all the same but their not.
Dr. Brent listens to what your pain is. and ask you a lot of question so he can Really pin point the problem and then he pin points the area that needs to be worked on. And he told me what I can do you stop the pain from coming back. Other Doctors don’t tell you that because they want to keep coming back to them for more services.
Thank you Dr. Brent
Sincerely,
Ranae Mendiola

I have been to Placentia-​Linda Chiropractic twice now for a massage with Andrew, and I will be returning. He is a pleasant personable young man who seems quite knowledgeable about muscle structure and massage technique. I had gone in with some tightness in shoulders and upper back. As I left this last time, I remember saying to myself that it had been the most effective massage I’d ever had!

Dr Brent is an excellent chiropractor. His staff is warm and friendly. I recently came to Dr Brent because I threw my back out. He spent 45 minutes treating me with various modalities. I was able to walk out pain free and not bent over. He has also done active release treatment on my back and I highly recommend his services.

Took my 10 year son there for some treatment on his back for a sports injury. Dr Brent fixed him right up. Friendly service, great treatment at a reasonable price. what more can you want. Ask about the massage bed in the back room!!!

Placentia-​Linda Chiropractic is a full-​service practice. They provide many different types of treatments as a whole-​body approach to pain therapy and healing.
Their office is clean, and staff, very professional. I am confident to refer friends, family and anyone looking for comprehensive chiropractic care to Placentia-​Linda Chiropractic.

Dr. Howes is an absolute miracle worker. I went to see him after I had been rear-​ended for the third time. Now my pain is gone and I’m back surfing with my boys and hitting the gym. Thank you Dr. Howes.

Straight to the point, they get to where’s the problem & they work from there…
I highly recommend Dr Brent Howes, Dr Ryan Bias & the rest of their therapists/​staff to get you back to where you need to be!
