I was visiting family in El Paso for a week when my back went out. My sister suggested I see Dr. Ontiveros. Honestly, I was a little skeptical, but eventually went. I was blown away by the service. I got one adjustment and was wired up to a device for about 10-15 minutes. I walked out of Desert Sun with ZERO pain, and didn't have any other pain after that. It was amazing. If I lived in El Paso I'd go see Dr. Ontiveros regularly! I'll have to settle for going to see Dr. Ontiveros when I'm in town. The staff was friendly and knowledgable, and to walk out after one visit with no pain was beyond what I could have dreamed. Thank you Desert Sun Chiropractic!! read more

Desert Sun Chiropractic - Graduation. To maintenance/maintain my health adjusted back -No pain . Thank You Desert Sun Chiropractic . Thank You DOC "O" - Chiropractors Near Me - El Paso, Texas

This place is predatory and somewhat cult like. I strongly recommend that you get multiple opinions and be very careful what you sign. Chiropractic care is not supposed to involve mandatory videos with groups (hello HIPPA?) weird billing where you're paying for services you didn't get, unnecessary amounts of x rays, etc. I literally just went in to see if I needed an adjustment after running into them at a wellness fair. The next thing I knew, they had me set up for all of the adjustments my insurance would allow for the year, along with extra "classes" and self promoting videos in which this doctor is presented as some weird guru or something. It was a classic con - they tried to make me believe that I was going to become disabled if I didn't immediately join their little cult. I remember being really confused, because I'm active and practice yoga and hike and bike and actually have a really flexible spine. I knew that this is not normal, I also knew that in case I got in some kind of accident or something, it would be really bad for me to have used my chiropractic coverage up on that. It's insanely predatory to behave in this way. I canceled my remaining sessions and never went back. Like others here - I STILL GOT BILLED. It's a mystery how this place is still in operation. Since then, I did actually experience a minor accident. I have unfortunately also moved out of El Paso. I went to a recommended chiropractor from across all fields, in my new home, and found out what I already innately knew... aside from my recent injury and a minor misalignment elsewhere, my spine is very healthy. It made me remember this place and recall that I never did speak up. Please, don't go there. read more

I highly recommend Dr O!! I had taken my kids previously to be adjusted with him and he was so gentle and kind to gain their trust and bring comfort to their experience. Then recently after having my son I was having lower back pains. I scheduled an appointment for me and Dr O created a three month plan to help with my spine alignment along with the nerve interference and cramps I was having. He was diligent to explain the benefits of each part of my program plan. Answering all my questions and being attentive in my weekly updates of progress. I am entering my third month and it's been a complete turn around! His staff is amazing! The whole atmosphere with their customer service makes your healing process that more enjoyable! Jay, Cindy, Amanda, Daisy, and Maria are all wonderful women who are so happy to welcome and personalize your experience. I love coming here because they truly care about the service they provide! Go support a local holistic wellness gem that has been dedicated to serve EP for over a decade! read more

Desert Sun Chiropractic - Chiropractors Near Me - El Paso, Texas

See all

My niece introduced me to Desert Sun and I am so happy she did. I trust Dr. not only with my spin, my husbands but with my almost 3 year olds. Dr. Ontiveros quickly helped me with my hip and leg issue I was having. Having a child, especially an active boy means a lot of falls and I feel safe knowing I can trust and feel comfortable taking my son to Dr. Ontiveros everytime. The staff is friendly and welcoming and that makes it feel like you're part of a family than just a regular Drs. office. read more

Dr. Mike and his team are amazing! I have a chronic neck condition with occasional pain flareups, so I need a go-to chiropractor. After my move to El Paso in 2016, I was experiencing terrible pain and had a tough time functioning...thankfully a coworker referred me to Desert Sun Chiropractic. Dr. O immediately put a plan into place for me and within a few treatment sessions I was feeling back to normal. I was so impressed with Dr. Ontiveros's ability to make me feel comfortable, caring manner, and genuineness. Their approach just can't be beat - I continue to need chiropractic support and I won't go anywhere else! I have also referred both friends and family to Dr. Mike and always hear happy feedback. read more

Desert sun is the best! We get treated so well here. My neck is so much better after being treated here over the past 3 years. I recently had x-rays which showed the great improvement and I was thrilled! The office staff is so friendly. It's always fun to come to the office. Thanks so much for being so great! read more

Watch your bill, the billing department likes to get carried away. The adjustments are okay, but I've definitely had much better. read more

Dr. Ontiveros, without a doubt, has got your back! Or neck, or knees!!! He is knowledgeable, thorough, patient, kind, and has a great sense of humor. My old back and neck function so much better and the pain that I have been having is subsiding and my back and shoulder/neck function is much better and the pain is much less! read more

Very good staff. Doctor is engagimg, knowledgeable and effective. He put me on a wellness progrsm thst has helped revitilized me, taken my back pain away and im feeling great. I would highly recommend this office. read more

I've had a bad back for years. No doubt the result of a lifetime of former employers climbing onto it, and former girlfriends putting monkeys on it! I've been seeing chiropractors for about five years now, and Dr.O and his staff offer the best overall experience I've had. They maintain a very welcoming, relaxed atmosphere. Beatriz and the other receptionists are always very friendly and personable; Sarah has to be one of the most consistently cheerful people I know (a rarity for office managers to be sure!); and Dr.O has a super chill and calming demeanor. He's an outstanding listener and receptive to your complaints. Not only does he do an excellent job of putting my bones back in order, but offers lots of advice in exercises and stretches I can do to mitigate my problems. ...perhaps someday I'll try one of them... (kidding Dr O! If you happen to read this, I'm doing the leg lifts as I type!) Really, for facility cleanliness, time efficiency, and friendly and competent chiro service- Desert Sun is where it's at. read more

One of the best Chiropractors I've ever seen. Dr. Ontiveros is amazing! Within the first three treatments, he had me from barely being able to walk for weeks, to standing on one leg and bringing my knees up to my chest. What a miracle worker! read more

Update- received a $200 bill a year later, after I had paid all that I had been charged. Be careful with this place, their billing seems to be seriously lacking. I regret ever going here. read more

Dr. Ontiveros renewed my faith in chiropractors! I had been seen by another practice and completely misinformed and ripped off. As a healthcare provider myself I was very hesitant to see another chiropractor in this area. From the moment I walked in, staff was friendly and courteous. Dr Ontiveros came and spoke with me, preformed APPROPRIATE tests AND preformed an adjusted on my problem area. Although TriCare was not accepted, the billing was extremely reasonable, fair and matched the service. I am very satisfied and felt amazing after I left! I will recommend this office to my patients! read more

I have been a patient here for a few months. Dr. Ontiveros is very friendly and professional. My adjustments are quick and easy. The staff is always pleasant and makes sure I am comfortable. I just had an appointment this evening and let me tell you, I feel like a new person. Chiropractic care has been a necessity for me since my first child was born, and it is very hard to find someone who understands exactly what adjustments I need. I am very happy with the experience that I have had at Desert Sun Chiropractic, and I will continue care here as long as I am in El Paso. read more

I'm very impressed with Dr. Ontiveros and his staff. We took our 10 year old son in for two visits due to a football scrimmage injury and he addressed all of our concerns, was thorough in creating a health care plan and following up at subsequent appointments. A welcoming environment with a knowledge, caring doctor that takes the time to answer our questions, instead of rushing out, has been hard for us to find since we moved here from the greater Seattle area this summer. We are thrilled to have found a dedicated and compassionate team at Desert Sun Chiropractic! read more

Michael Ontiveros has a gift for "fixing" me. Thanks! I have been going for years. I can pop in and pop out in most days without a huge wait. read more

Excellent service and care. The office staff is super welcoming and accommodating. Dr. Ontiveros is a great chiropractor. He has cared for my entire family at this point and we all feel better after our visits, including my newborn son. Highly recommend him and his practice. read more

I've been to Desert 3x now and see myself going regularly for my adjustments. I've been using chiropractors for about 3 years now for my lower back. I've seen a variety of different chiropractors over the years due to my frequent moving (Colorado, Texas, Arizona). Every chiropractor is a little different in the types of therapy they utilize. Some are barebones (no pun intended) back pushers, some require X-rays first, and some have unique ways of adjusting the individual. Desert Sun is probably the best chiro I've seen yet. The chiro accommodated my request to avoid initial x-rays (after first determining that he agree there didn't appear to be any major health issues that required it, especially when I told him I regularly saw chirps). He did a variety of adjustments (me on my stomach for my back, me on my side, and me on my back for neck adjustment). The way a chiro manually checks each vertebra with delicate but precise fingers is often a good indicator of the quality of the chiro. With a very smooth running operation, a variety of chairs available, Desert Sun chiropractic really takes excellent care of their patients. Its fairly easy to schedule an appointment at last the minute as well. With quality comes higher prices but Desert Sun offers a discount if you pay up front and a military discount. read more
