This review is so long overdue! Dr. B completely cured my VERTIGO -- 100%!! Before seeing Dr. B, I had suffered from vertigo for years. I was on all kinds of medications -- including nausea meds and vertigo meds -- which left me drowsy, sluggish, and still very sick. I had seen every type of specialist imaginable: ENTs, neurologists... I even had brain scans done. No one knew how to truly help me. It wasn't until I began treatment with Dr. B that I finally started to heal. After eight months of consistent care, my vertigo went away -- permanently! I've been off all medication for years now and haven't had any issues since. Dr. B changed my life. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! read more

I have had a horrific neck and back pain that made me feel paralyzed. In just several weeks, I am on the way to healing. My neck and back have see freed up and loosened, and I only have a little ways more to go. Dr. Bonilla targets VERY specifically on just the right places on your spine and he adjusts with precision and just the right amount of force and gentleness. I always feel I am in expert hands, as compared to other chiropractors, who just use brute force and a 'one size fits all' technique, and they go real fast like they're dialing it in, so I can never relax and breathe through my adjustments. Dr. Bonilla really knows how to heal and adjust you. read more

Dr. Allen is an amazing chiropractor and healer. He is very intuitive with his touch. He has a lot of knowledge, and he listens to try to figure out the core issue. I would highly recommend him. read more

Remi is one of the most talented masseurs I've ever had. His strength and use of pressure is out of this world. He truly understands the human body and what it takes to decompress the most difficult and stubborn areas. Highly highly recommend! read more

Dr. Bonilla is truly a healer and an expert in the body. I've been dealing with carpal tunnel pain for the past year and I've seen expert doctors over the last few years who haven't suggested a non surgical alternative to dealing with my pain. Finally, I came to see Dr. Bonilla on a recommendation from a good friend to try out ABC, a specific modality of chiropractic care. The difference in the quality of care I've received is night and day. Dr. Bonilla is able to tell how my body is functioning simply by feeling it -- he doesn't need me to self report. I've learned that my other doctors failed to recognize my carpal tunnel pain as a holistic issue related to posture and other muscle tightness. Dr. Bonilla has been helping me release several sections in my back, neck, and wrists to holistically help relieve the pressure on the median nerve. Three adjustments later and my pain has significantly improved, and I can see, for the first time in a year, the journey to living a healthier, more pain free, life! My only regret is not coming to see him sooner! read more

Dr Bonilla is the best chiropractor I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Why? I came for neck pain, brain fog, disassociation all stemming from a car accident. NOTHING was helping me even 3 months after the accident.Turns out my neck healed incorrectly and was locked in place which was causing all of my mental and physical symptoms. Within just a few weeks, I feel 80% better and each day notice an improvement. Although I came primarily for my neck, Allen has been able to address the rest of my body-- specifically, he is helping adjust my lower back that has been out for 5 years. He is incredibly knowledgable of the body and even when my pain subsides and my neck is aligned, I will continue to come regularly for maintenance. The Space: The office is conveniently located on Pico Blvd and the office is very comfortable and clean. The front desk staff is also a pleasure to work with and I feel completely at ease during my appointments! HIGHLY recommend trying this out even if you aren't experiencing pain! He will help adjust and realign you from head to toe :) read more

Really one of the most skilled chiropractors I have seen in a long time I get headaches and I get so much relief every time I see him Great office too read more

Dr. Bonilla, is wonderful! He's super patient and takes time to really listen to you and goes out of his way to help. He's a great doctor who is more concerned with finding the root cause to your health concerns instead of just slapping a bandaid on your symptoms. I will definitely refer him! read more

Outstanding work. I come from a medical family, and was raised to be skeptical of chiropractic medicine. My father, who was a urologist, had always told me that the problem needed to be treated with meds from the inside out. I no longer believe this is completely accurate because I can say that without a doubt my body always feels better after leaving Dr. Allen Bonilla's office. I felt that Dr. Bonilla was extremely professional and kind. I thought his realignment techniques were very effective, yet completely non-invasive (I've had some doctors that were a little too rough for my tastes in the past). He is very organized and each one of our sessions begins with a weekly overview of how I'm feeling and what transpired over the week to contribute to any lower back pain. This is essential, for there are many things I was doing to aggravate my recovery that I thought were acceptable. My recent diagnosis of sciatica was debilitating. What I love about Dr. Bonilla is the KNOWLEDGE that he imparts on his clients. Getting an adjustment is one thing, but I feel that more importantly I have a much better understanding of proper, non-aggravating posture. For example, Allen showed me how to sit and get out of chairs more effectively. He also gave me a very clear explanation of why my back always hurts while driving and how to adjust my seat height so that it doesn't have to be as painful. He showed me with diagrams and visuals certain key posture points that I needed to strive for everyday (which I thought I fully knew, but really didn't). Sports are a big part of my life and he showed me how to take extra care during tennis and golf (both require a lot of twisting and bending). I have to say, what was most helpful was the techniques he showed me for posture on my job. I do a lot of heavy lifting, twisting and bending and although I have taken safety courses on the job NOTHING compares to the knowledge I now have. In short, I have eliminated 100% of the body movements detrimental to my sciatica. i really would not have been able to do this without Allen and for the first time in months am having pain free days. I am glad that I did not opt for the steroid injections that I thought were just too over-the-top and not really addressing future flare-ups. Again, the treatment is in the knowledge I have gained on how to carry myself throughout the day and at night with my sleeping posture. I have been supplementing my recovery with Dr. Bonilla with physical therapy from "Titus Motion Therapy," also in the same building complex (see review below). http://www.yelp.com/biz/titus-motion-therapy-los-angeles#hrid:5YIsYTsF0AzXi-3-r9WVLg/src:self The office is very zen and located in a bustling health care facility. Parking is a breeze, I highly recommend Dr. Bonilla my life is changing for the better every visit. read more

I am so, SO grateful for this doctor! I have a lot of work that needs to be done, but I can already see improvements in my posture, as well as feeling a lot better with less pain overall. He is informative, and dedicated to making sure you get the desired results you are looking for. Thank you Dr. Bonilla! read more

Doctor Bonilla is highly knowledgeable, extremely detailed, and simply great. I had a neck pain that would cause migraines about twice a week and I basically had a headache for a year. I'm not kidding, after the first session it got so much better, and after a few more the pain was gone completely, I still can't believe it. I have been to several chiropractors before and had honestly almost lost faith in it until I went to doctor Bonilla. The adjustments he does are different than anyone else, and they are much more detailed. I can't recommend him highly enough and believe me when I say he will certainly help with any body issue you have. read more

Allen Bonilla, DC and the "ABC" chiropractic technique is correcting my life-long bad posture and is nothing short of a miracle. I have suffered from bad posture since my youth, and a life time of "abuse" making the situation worse and worse. I've always known how bad my posture was and how much tightness and pain I had in my back and neck, but I never knew there was "a way out". I have been to chiropractors, massage therapists, and acupuncturists many, many times before, but none ever gave more than minor and temporary "relief". The ABC adjustments I receive from Allen Bonilla, DC feel long term and permanent, and even feel like they are releasing bodily trauma from decades ago. I could go on and on and on, instead I'll just suggest that you visit Allen for yourself and give it a try...it's truly different than anything you've ever experienced. My family and friends are absolutely amazed by the changes in my posture in the first day and subsequent few weeks. Peace, Blessings, and Love, Michael read more

Dr. Bonilla has been a friend of mine for years. I recently got back into golfing after taking many years off. Unfortunately my mind was thinking differently then how my body wanted to perform. I injured my back and my ribs. I immediately thought of Dr. Bonilla. I went to see him and after his first adjustment I could not believe the difference in the way my body was supporting itself. He continued moving to different areas and correcting issues he found along the way. My left shoulder had slight discomfort he fixed that. I broke my wrist as a child and had a lot of weakness. He corrected that. My whole left side of my body for the first time in along time felt amazing. I would absolutely recommend him for any chiropractic work. His office and the staff that works there is incredibly professional and kind! 5 Stars Dr. Bonilla! I will be back to see you regularly. read more

Dr. Bonilla is the only chiropractor I've gone back to week after week for adjustment. He identified the problem areas in my upper back unique to me, and formed a plan to work at it little by little for long-term improvement. He doesn't just do the same treatment to every patient because it feels good. Your body and posture issues are unique to you and I would highly recommend Dr. B to anyone who is serious about making long-term changes to their posture. read more

Being a Chiropractor myself, I'm always in need of an adjustment. Dr. Bonilla is one of the very few Doctors I trust. He is extremely knowledgeable and gets to the core of the problem. I had excruciating wrist pain and he managed to alleviate the pain after one adjustment. I highly recommend him! read more

I had an issue with a shoulder injury and sciatica and was desperate to find someone who could help. I have gone to many Chiropractors over the years for minor tweaks here and there, but unfortunately they didn't get the job done. I searched for Chiropractors that had specialization in sciatica and I found Dr. Bonilla! He is just an absolute magician. My shoulder pain actually went away after working with him. I will repeat...IT WENT AWAY. I had felt better than I had in YEARS!! I moved to NYC recently and when I come back to LA, I always come to see him. Did I mention he is extremely nice and caring as well? I highly recommend using his services! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Bonilla for about 7 years now and he's awesome. Doesn't pressure you into packages, and for me, adjusts in a way that actually gets results. It's helped with my migraines, posture, form at the gym, etc. As a part of my wedding prep I actually made sure to see him the week of the ceremony to make sure I looked my best in my dress and photos and I'm glad I did! I definitely stood taller and straighter as a result. read more

I felt like a new man. Dr Bonilla made my back pain go away. Very knowledgeable, passionate and professional. I have gone to many other places i.e. acupuncture, massage therapy, orthopedist, yoga but by far Dr. Bonilla Was the best and cheapest. Highly recommended!!!! read more

I've been working with Dr. Bonilla for a little over 6 months now after being hit by a car. In addition to back pain from poor posture, he's been amazing. I recommend him to anyone. read more

Dr Bonilla is the real deal people. Advanced biostructural correction is kind of like going from college to the pros in relation to regular chiro. He will check and align every verterbrae. He can also align hips, ribs, and joints with no problem. It will not be a typical sloppy adjustment where you are pulled by your arms and legs. I have been going to him for years for different issues and never once could he not identify and solve the problem in minutes. I recommend anyone having issues go see him asap. read more

I was at sky zone trying to keep up with my 13 year old daughter. Huge mistake! After a few days with terrible back pain I finally decided it was time to seek professional help. Am I sure glad I did! Dr. Allen Bonilla came highly recommended from a friend and he fixed me back right up. (pun intended) After just 30 mins I already felt 70% better. He is very professional and definitely knows what he's doing. Thank you Dr. Allen! I'll be back to correct my posture! (his specialty) read more

Dr. Bonilla is awesome, he is fixing a physical problem that no other doctor has been able to fix. He's informative and thorough. His techniques are modern and really seem to be helping! read more

I went to Dr.Bonilla's office after 2 painful weeks of bedrest as I could not sit or stand straight with a very acute lower back pain. The pain was a recurring result of a herneated disc injury a few years ago. I have had this problem for 6 years now and the only thing orthopaedic doctors or physiotherapists have advised me so far is to take bed rest and then start a physiotherapy session followed by strengthening exercises. These have provided temporary relief to me, and improved overall pain levels. However, there are times when the problem reoccurs due to stress and strain, since it is still the weakest point in my body. Sometimes, the pain levels get very high. This last time, I was fortunate to have been recommended to visit Dr.Bonilla by a friend. Walked in to his office with a crooked painful body (Pain levels were around 7 to 8 on 10) and came out walking straight and a pain level of around 2 or 3! Yes, that is accurate info. I really liked the way he conducted the visit. He is extremely professional and gets right to the point and the problem. I have visited other chiros who were interested in talking about where I work and what I do and so on before they get to the point...!! Dr.Bonilla understood the problem with my back by observing my posture and walking and he made an adjustment that was bang on! He also made sure he communicated with me what he was doing to help my back. I have been seeing Dr.Bonilla ever since and I have seen a lot of improvement in my back and posture. He also is very realistic in his approach and is not pushy about anything. I cant thank him enough for helping me live a painfree normal life... Highly recommend him. He really has your back! read more

Dr. Bonilla is amazing. I have been a dancer/ yoga /fitness person for many years I was in a bad place with Sciatic pain such that my leg went numb a few times getting up out of bed and I would almost fall. It took consistent visits in the beginning but Dr Bonilla explained his technique and the process to correct issues that others could not. I live two hours away but Dr. Bonilla was worth the trip. I followed him to his present location which is a nice place and cool area of LA. He also helped my husband and son ( tennis player and swimmer)with their posture and other issues( carpal tunnel). Highly recommended. read more

Dr. Bonilla is someone that I have had a chance to work with professionally. He is what I call a "chiropractor's chiropractor", meaning that as I chiropractor myself I can thoroughly appreciate his depth of knowledge and adjusting technique to the extent that I am thrilled to get treatment from him for my own personal needs. Dr. Bonilla is kind, caring and has those personal skills that also make being seen by him enjoyable. If you have never been to a chiropractor, then Dr. Bonilla will provide a great first experience for you. Likewise, if you have been to many chiropractors, you will be thankful to have him as your new chiropractor to keep your body functioning at it's best. read more

I just got adjusted by Allen and it was a wonderful experience. He had a very unique approach to getting a hard knot out of my back and I had instant relief! I will be sure to make an appointment with him soon! read more

Doctor Bonilla is amazing. He can locate the position of your pain by touch. Before I could point, he was telling me where the source of my pain was. The next moment, he was fixing it. If you suffer from chronic musculoskeletal issues, you owe it to yourself to drop by his office. read more

After I had surgery on my knees and ankle, Dr. Bonilla reset my whole body, including ankle, arch, knees, hips and back to get my posture back to normal and my pain down to a minimum. I've never met another doctor who so intimately understands the structure of the human body, and extends his knowledge and practice beyond just the spine. Additionally, the most important work he's done for me was to actually heal my IBS. Once, I casually mentioned that I was having several food intolerances, and he started to inquire more into it. He identified that I was having trouble breaking down foods high in Thiols due to a mercury accumulation. He consulted with me on a combination of natural supplements I could take, and helped me create a healing plan. Within 3 months I could finally reintroduce a whole bunch of foods that I hadn't been able to eat in 5 years, and my stomach wasn't in pain anymore. I owe so much to him for this relief, and recommended all my friends to see him whenever they are having an issue which causes regular doctors to just shrug their shoulders in bewilderment. read more

Dr. Bonilla is amazing and passionate about what he does. From the time I was a teenager, I always felt the need to crack my wrist. Dr. Bonilla took a look at it, gave one of my fingers a little adjustment (which I would never have thought was the problem), and I have not had the need to crack my wrist (or any related areas) since! This was years ago. I have since recommended all my friends and family to him. He has helped my mother out with her ankle, foot, and back/neck problems through the years as well. He also gives genuine, well-thought out advice -- You can tell he actually cares about the patient, other humans, and the science of it overall. read more

Minimal interaction and disconnect. I felt he was way over priced for the little he provided.

I love Dr. Allen. Very patient and listens to all symptoms to find the true root of the problem. I went to Dr. Allen Bonilla when my knee had reached the point I could not even put weight on it. Dr. Allen Bonilla, looked at my knee pain and swelling not as the problem but as a symptom of another problem. Dr. Allen Bonilla began by adjusting the ankle I had sprained prior but that had gone untreated. I had seen several Doctors that just gave me pills or drained my knee. Without Doctor Allen I would most likely not be walking right now. read more

Allen is a very enthusiastic Chiropractor who is not out to fix you 'just enough' to keep you coming back, instead he works with you to find a solution. Allen was able to noticeably change my posture with just a few adjustments and reduce back pain very quickly. He is very passionate and i highly recommend his services. read more

I was glad to have found Dr. Bonilla that Saturday morning. I had been in pain all week and the specialist that I normally would go to was waiting on insurance information before performing any care. For a reasonable price for consultation and realignment I was happy to finally have someone helping to correct my problem. Dr. Bonilla was very considerate of my situation and explained what was happening in my body that kept making the pain return even after multiple decompression sessions. He explained that as long as the body is out of alignment, decompression sessions will only give a temporary result, not long term. After working to correct my alignment problem which greatly relieved my pain, allowing me to walk, sit, lay and finally get a night of good sleep, he started to work to straighten the reverse curvatour in my spine. I am sure this will allow for greater mobility and even longer term correction. Dr. Bonilla knows his practice, is a very personable guy and he is willing to share his knowledge of the body with his patients. I am glad to have found Dr. Bonilla that Saturday morning. read more
