I am a hairstylist and came in as a last resort before shoulder surgery. I have been working in extreme pain for a year, done PT, cortisone shot, massage, other chiropractic … honestly every thing. Dr. Karlene saved my life. My pain is lower than it’s ever been and I’ve even had weeks with no pain! The Graston technique, cupping and adjustments are a magical combination. I highly recommend Dr. Karlene! The entire staff is just lovely and parking is super easy as well.

I have been seeing Dr. Sadie for a couple years. She is one of my favorite people! She listens and really cares that the work we are doing together makes a difference in how I feel. Her energy is super calming and great to be around. The facility is clean and positive. I recommend Dr. Sadie to all of my friends!

Seeing Dr. Alandi at Life Force Chiropractic helps bring me peace every time I go. I always leave feeling better, both mentally and physically, which makes sense knowing now what I have learned about the mind/body connection during our visits. I would highly recommend Life Force Chiropractic to anyone looking to improve the quality of their lives!

Love this place! Dr. Sadie and Riley are AMAZING! Both of them take the time to get to know you and care a lot about making your experience the best! Unlike several chiropractors I have been to in the past, Dr. Sadie doesn't try and sell me a bunch of stuff, which I appreciate. Instead, Dr. Sadie taught me stretches and things I could do with the tools I already have at home! Kathy the front desk person is super kind and personable! Highly recommend LifeForce Chiro!!!!

I called as a new patient for a same day appointment because I tweaked by back and was in a lot of pain. They didn’t have openings but then the receptionist called back a few hours later and told me Dr Sadie would stay late to see me. Dr Sadie was amazing! Took time to talk me through what was going on and the adjustments helped so much. They have a lifelong customer now!!

Happened upon this place after not being able to move my neck for a week. I was desperate and called all the chiropractors in my area that were showing up as in-network for my insurance. They got me in same-day for an abbreviated intake which was a huge relief, literally. And while I don't wish pain or tension on anyone, I am very grateful I found this place!!
I've since been following up with Dr. Sadie and she is amazing. After establishing care with her, I strained my ankle and she has also adjusted it and it has helped improve healing. She's extremely knowledgeable and her technique

I can't speak to the chiropractic side of Life Force, but I just had a massage with Riley and it was amazing. Riley has a very aware sense of touch (trust me, half my reviews are of massage places). We got out several knots, and at the end I was thinking (to myself of course), "Riley loves me!" Okay, obviously not, but the mark of a good masseuse is to touch with love - and to put you in a mind-altered state where you think a stranger can love you. Super calm, quiet setting, nice music. Yes yes yes!

This is a very good Chiropractic Clinic. Dr. Sadie really looked after me. The receptionist also is very nice. They take most insurance here as well. I had a really bad rib back injury. I clearly have pulled some muscles pretty badly. While chiropractors can't always do a ton with people with muscle injuries, Dr. Sadie did do her best to align me, and I definitely think it helped my back. Also, Dr. Sadie did a great job of making sure that her adjustments didn't in any which way shape or form hurt. I would come here anytime if I was having problems with my back again. This is my new chiropractic

When I found out that I needed to go to a chiropractor, I thought I was going to die. The image in my head was of a tough old Romanian woman with big meaty hands, prime for kneading my back into shape like lumpy bread. Needless to say, I was completely wrong.
My chiropractor, Gina, is a tiny woman with a passion for her work. She's a bit of a nerd which is awesome, and has a plethora of cool science knowledge and is eager to talk about it. We got along immediately.
The work itself was successful. Of course chiropractic work will not fix you in the first session, but I can honestly say that

Every time I go to Life Force, my loyalty grows.
I usually see Kevin, and have been impressed with how he never tires of my weird questions. For example, my jaw had been sore & cracking and I asked him if he could adjust it. Or if that is even an option. He did some massaging and within a day, it was much better.
Or when my lower back was aching like crazy, and I saw him...and he called it within a few questions and explorations: I had an enflamed galbladder that needed to be removed.
It is commonly pretty easy to get in on short notice, within a day at the least. The location is convenient
