The original location on Rainbow was named Rainbow Chiropractic Center Ltd.
After moving to the West side of town on 215 and Town center the practice was rebranded Sportif Chiropractic.

Laser Therapy is clinically proven as an effective treatment for pain and inflammation. Able to penetrate to deep tissue structures, it has the ability to treat a wide variety of both acute and chronic conditions including low back pain, hip bursitis, and chronic neck pain. The non-invasive nature of Deep Tissue Laser Therapy provides a solution for those who are looking for alternatives to prescription drugs and surgery.
Research points to the beneficial effects of traction because it can distract joint surfaces, reduce protrusions of nuclear discal material, stretch soft-tissue muscles and mobilize joints. These effects provide many patients with pain relief from spinal dysfunction. The stimulation of sensory mechanoreceptors that occurs with the application of traction may also gate pain transmission.

I've been a patient of Dr. Vu's for about 12 years. I had been going to another chiropractor for about a year for non-injury adjustments and to treat general back pain. In that years time I got very little relief even though I was going in every 7-10 days and receiving a variety of treatments. My wife told me about a chiropractor a lot of her coworkers were seeing and they all loved him. That was when I first went to Dr. Vu and I have never regretted it.
One my first visit Dr. Vu (then at Rainbow Chiropractic) asked me some questions about why I felt I needed to see a chiropractor.

I just had my right shoulder and lower back treated by Dr. Vu. And it was amazing. I can actually turn to my right and bend down with ease after the treatment. It is still kind of sore but nothing like it was. I have been having soreness around my right shoulder and lower back for a few days and hoping that it would go away. Unfortunately, it was getting worse and I couldn't stand the soreness any more. After adjustments, Dr. Vu used a machine and laser to treat my sore areas. It felt so good with the laser. You can feel the warmth from the laser and it made the areas feel so much better.

OMG! Pain is gone and I can walk with out limping. I have been having knee pain for about 1 month now. Had 2 medical doctors checked it and was diagnosed as tendinitis. And I was about getting an MRI. Treatment recommended was resting of my right knee for about 8-12 weeks. Anyways, my wife told me to go see Dr. Bu at Sportif Chiropractic because she has been getting laser treatments for her tennis elbow and her knee. She said it works and she already feeling better. Honestly, I was really skeptical about the laser treatment, but I went anyways, because I was hurting walking up and down the stairs

Dr. Vu and his staff are absolutely amazing! First, let me say that I called 8 Chiropractors in town to speak with their staff, get a feel for the Office communication, and for the Dr. I have to admit, I called 8 offices because I have HPN/HMO and only 8 chiropractors were in my network.
Nonetheless, I think you can learn a lot by speaking with the front office. His Office was the ONLY Office that was clear, concise, answered all my questions about Chiropractic Services/Insurance Coverage and didn't try to "sell me" on packages or unnecessary services before I even got seen

Amazing! I have never been to a chiropractor and was always afraid to see one, so I lived in pain for about 4 months. The pain was so bad I considered surgery. With only the first visit, my pain was almost completely gone. Pain level was 7-8, and after that day was about 2! I really recommend anyone with pain to see Dr. Vu. He makes me feel confident in him, and that really helps if you're afraid. More importantly, he took the pain away!

The best chiropractor in town in my opinion! Dr. Vu is always on time, makes sure to explain treatment options and he is honest. He'll never try to sell you on something you don't actually need.
The cold laser is an incredible treatment. I had crashed on my bicycle during a race, and after only 4 laser treatments my swollen knee was back to normal. The bruising took some time to disappear, but I was back in the gym within a week!

Having a great Chiropractor on the other side of town was a blessing and a curse for years, but it took the expertise and convenience of Dr. Vu at Sportif Chiropractic to end my horrific commutes for adjustments. After four visits, Dr. Vu has now become my go to Chiropractor. Located right off of the 2-15 at Town Center, Sprotif Chiropractic is super easy to access!
For me, having a quality staff in any office you frequent is critical..especially a Doctors/Medical office!...and Sportif Chiropractic has Melanie...she is very confident, precise, and kind. So it's always pleasant to make an

Dr. Vu, thank you for your awesome help! I had a last minute need for help and he opened up his schedule to assist. As an athlete I super appreciated this as I was itching to get back into my workouts. Not only was his suggestion to use the cold laser therapy super helpful, but i was simply amazed by his gentle approach and the time he spent me with me. Thank you so much! I sincerely appreciate everything! And a mega 5 Star rating for Melany at front desk as well!! ;-)

I am a competitive marathon runner and I rely on the help of Dr. Vu to keep me injury free and at the top of my game. I’ve been coming to see Dr. Vu every week for laser therapy and adjustments. He helps me recover from tough workouts and ready to tackle the next run. He helped me quickly heal from a calf injury and helped get me race ready in a matter of a few treatments. Now I continue to go as part of a maintenance plan to stay on top of my recovery. He is an integral part of my training! I recommend him to all athletes!!

Dr. Vu is probably the doctor you want to see if you're having any ligament or muscle issues. He fixed my calve really fast. Dr. Vu laser treatment is no joke. It really, really works! I've been looking around for a really good chiropractor too. But no more looking anymore. I highly recommend Dr. Vu to anybody here in Las Vegas valley.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Vu for several months now. Not only has my pain and discomfort gone away, he had me back doing my normal athletic activities, within a few weeks. As an athlete, he understood the importance of balance between everyday life and my athletic activities and has me feeling great again. I give Dr. Vu and his staff 5 Stars!
