Performance Care Chiropractic & Sports Medicine

The first time I saw Dr. Nissim was over two years ago, for low back pain. I was very impressed with his knowledge, and no nonsense approach to treatment. However, because of my work schedule, and normal work commute, it was difficult for me to continue seeing him. Last year, I suffered frozen shoulder and tendonitis (tennis elbow). MY condition was so bad, that I was not finding relief with a former osteopath, MD or orthopedic specialist. I could not brush my teeth, hair, shower, change, the pain was debilitating, excruciating and I was getting depressed because I could get no relief. Then I remembered Dr. Golan. He happened to be at the Westlake Village office and I was able to be seen. He immediately started aggressive therapy on me, with different techniques, both using medical equipment and hands-​on therapy. I have come a long way. My tendonitis is no longer aggravating or acute. I have regained movement with less pain. He has worked on my shoulder, and is now treating me after a fractured ankle. Whenever Dr. Golan works on me, he always wants to know what is happening, what I am doing, how the treatment is going, etc. He always has time to listen. I appreciate that very much. I know I am in capable hands, and I highly recommend him. I have nothing but respect for the doctor, and his assistant, Ray is awesome. His motto is
«You come when you need me».

Been going there for a Year and a half now and Dr. Nissim is the best knows exactly what the problem was when I went in in two treatments he fixed me and Robin the massage therapist is amazing highly recommend her

Dr. Nissim is one of the best! I had tennis elbow that I could not shake. After 3 visits using active release technique I noticed a significant decrease in pain. He is very confident and he knows exactly what he is doing. I highly recommend him and his staff. I will be using him from now on to cure all my sports ailments.

After throwing my back out and still being in pain a year and a half later from the date of injury I finally decided to go see a chiropractor. I was always skeptical that it would even work and never liked that most places have the standard «you need to come 10x or more to get better» recommendation. From the recommendation of a coworker I finally decided to go see Golan and I am so glad I did!!! After 4 sessions the issue with my back was completely gone! I have no idea what or how he did it but I got tremendous relief as soon as I walked out of my first session. I have gone back to him every so often if I do something that aggravates my back, usually only requiring one session. The bonus for me though was being able to go see him after hurting my knee doing a 10 mile hike. I was in pain for months and doctors thought it could have been a meniscus tear. Physical therapy was doing nothing so finally went back to Golan and AGAIN after only 1 session my knee was back to normal! HIGHLY recommend his practice if you are in need of knowledgable and good chiropractor.

Great Staff! dr Nissim worked patiently on my IT Band inflamation before running a Marathon and right after! His treatment really made the difference! I highly recommend Performance Care!

I train for endurance sports (Triathlon: Ironman & Marathons) and Performance Care has always been my clinic for sports injury and wellness. They provide a total solution for sport and exercise medicine. I’ve seen Dr. Nissim, and he has successfully treated ailments, pain and injury from over-​exerting myself. Dr. Nissim and team also showed me how to properly move in any given sport (Swim/​Bike/​Run) to further prevent injury and teach me how to bio-​mechanically ‘move’ better. Very knowledgeable staff, they make you feel comfortable and listen to every detail of your needs. They even offer sports massage therapy, Claire is an expert with muscular system anatomy.

I’ve been going to Dr. Nissim since 2009. He treated a back spasm a week before I raced my first marathon. My back healed just in time. I participate in marathons and long distance triathlons. He has treated me for all my sports injuries and I trust him. He’s knowledgable on body movement and always figures out how to treat me based on the activity that may have caused the injury.
He does mostly active release techniques on me. I’m not a fan of getting my back cracked, but when he chooses to, it’s very specific and not overwhelming. They also offer massage therapy. I love Claire. I’ve never met a massage therapist who knows the body the way she does and is also super intuitive with what you need.
I have recommended Performance Care to my friends and they all came back with positive feedback.

After doing many years of martial arts and athletics, I have never found anybody that is skilled and talented and as carrying as Dr. Golan. Highly recommend!!!

I had a pretty nasty neck to elbow collision playing soccer a few months ago and have dealt with pain and discomfort ever since. I am not one who likes to go to doctors and have never been to a chiropractor before and was very skeptical of anyone messing with anything in my back/​neck. After getting prompted from friends to at least give it a try, I found this place walking distance from where I live and it accepted my insurance. All the reviews were good so I gave it a shot. Dr. Golan Nissan is a magician! He consulted with me and very thoroughly asked about my injury and where my discomfort was, which made me at ease. He was attentive and was very enthusiastic that he said he knew exactly what the problem was. He made an adjustment to my neck (in which I heard everything in there explode like popcorn) and Voila the pain and discomfort is gone. In fact, I didn’t even realize how much pain and discomfort was there until it was gone. Anyway, this was my first and only chiropractic experience, so I don’t have anything to compare it to, but Dr. Golan Nissan made me feel comfortable, even though I was skeptical, and he instantly adjusted me to get rid of all the pain I was having so I highly recommend him.

Wonderful place. I hurt my shoulder and in a few visits I was no longer in pain. I sent my husband in when he hurt his back and after one visit he was himself again.

I have been a patient of Dr. Nissim’s for over 15 years. He has helped me through so many sports related injuries over the years and to be honest I wouldn’t be in one piece and in such great shape today if it weren’t for his expert care. It’s such a relief to know that when I need his help he’s always there to get me back on my feet. I can not recommend Dr. Nissim enough!

Best chiropractor ever — terrific massages and helpful staff!

This is the best wonderful, friendly service, clean. I have been dealing with horrible back pain for months and now only after 3 visits I am walking normal and feeling great. I would recommend this place to everyone!

I just became a patient. and I have fallen in luv with these guys.
I was seen by Dr. Fernandez who was kind and professional, took time to explain everything, and answered all my questions .
My massage therapist is KIM. She is sent from heaven Im convinced.
She is extremely skilled and in just two visits, I feel much much better. I have a lot more range in the use of my neck and right shoulder.
a big thank you…
To be honest, Im counting the days till my next visit. :))

Dr Golan Nissan is Brilliant. Wish i could find someone like him in London.
I am hypermobile so just need someone who isn’t scared to get right in there to work on my back and hips. He cracked places i didn’t even know existed and no-​one else has done. He is fast, and gentle in a tough way. Walked out feeling amazing.

The ONLY place I go to.
I live a very active lifestyle and push my body to the limits. I have tried other doctors and types of therapies for my injuries.
Pulling my groin muscles has been a common reoccurring issue for me. Dr. Nissim not only remedied my injury… he taught me how to prevent it from reoccurring.
They used cutting edge technology (i.e Low Level Laser, etc), massage and Active Release Technique for my treatment.
I HIGHLY recommend this place.

It was an act of God that I stumbled across Golan Nissim /​Performance Care.
I had a debilitating internal injury that even Neuro Surgens couldn’t diagnose. I was literally at the end of my pain tolerance rope. Dr Nissim not only dialed right in on this truly mysterious injury of mine, but within just a couple of sessions I was getting back my hope. My injury was nerve damage caused by scar tissue (from a previous operation) that had been cutting away at the nerve itself. I was literally being internally electrocuted.
My sessions with Dr. N were few (in comparison) and started spacing out as I began seeing him less and less often. It was a fraction short of a miracle how effective his treatments were.
I’m more than happy to report that I have long been injury (and pain) free and I don’t see any sign of going back.
Thanks Doc!
You were a God Send!

Golan is great — he has used ART to fix my cycling knees many times over the years. Robin gives a great massage, too!

He is one of the best!

Golan is a genius. I’ve been to quite a few different chiropractors over the years for adjustments and hands down Golan is the best I’ve ever been to. I go to his Agoura office now, but I’ve been to the Toluca one too and they’re both the same. You are invited into a private room, lay on the table and Golan goes to town. Takes care of the main problem areas you’re complaining about and then hits all the other areas just to keep you loose.
The first time I saw him I could barely bend over because my lower back was killing me so bad. No lie, after the first adjustment I left his office with practically no pain at all. He mad a big difference.
My wife and I both see him now, only takes 15 – 20 minutes and he takes our insurance so our cost is practically nothing.
