After a nagging lower back issue that lasted for months, I went to see Steven for the first time and after two sessions the improvement was remarkable. My lower back issue was creating deferral pain down my leg and obviously the back was aching. After each session there was dramatic improvement. Especially after the second. My only complaint is that he doesn't take insurance. But I have been to other chiropractors that do, and their treatment wasn't nearly as effective. I'm going to regularly visit Steven to prevent the issues I have had.

My wife wanted to find a nearby chiropractor for some lower back pain she has been having. I…read morerecommended my gal in Monterey, but she decided on Dr. Steve right here in the Village. She came home raving about the massage and the adjustment she got. Then, when I found myself with lower back pain I decided to try him despite the fact that he has limited hours and doesn't play the insurance game (can't blame him). I was first impressed with this virtual receptionist. You just logon to his website and choose your appointment right there. I had an appoint scheduled for 3 hours later and showed up. He was a very personable person and seemed to know his stuff. He didn't have a huge staff nor claim that adjustments would cure colds or itchy feet. A big part of his treatment is soft tissue massage before your adjustment. Never one to turn down a great massage I welcomed the treatment. He has very strong hands and fingers and will warn you to tell him about pressure. Dr. Steve is very up to date on technology. You can even pay with Apple Pay and he will email you the receipt, which you sign on his iPad. Good experience.

She was at the point of not being able to walk around the block and even getting out of bed was painful. Dr. Wong got her in right away, listened, did an assessment and gave her an initial adjustment. She could feel relief right away. Over the past few weeks he's worked with her to relieve pain and begin the process of strengthening and returning movement to her life. His treatments have brought great relief and his coaching has her stretching and returning to an active life. We appreciate his personal attention.

Turns out he doesn't take insurance. He said my email must have gotten lost in the 'interweb'. His place is super small and didn't seem clean even though the office had very low lighting. Maybe I'm used to nicer and more professional chiropractic offices. He's also missing most of his teeth. It was a weird experience.
