Dr Garza is truly a TREASURE! We are so blessed to have found him ... it started with us wanting to have our daughter seen by a chiropractor for her teenage acne and basic wellness as she does a lot of ballet on pointe and is growing so rapidly. He did a thorough first consultation on her and we brought her back weekly for a few months and happy to say she is aligned, her skin cleared tremendously and she is feeling better than ever !!! We were so impressed that my husband and I started seeing him and we both have become believers in Chiropractic care ... my husband suffers from fibromyalgia and we are amazed at the progress he is experiencing with every visit !! He also quickly noticed a difference in his alignment- he has been lifting weights for years and always had to position his body a certain angle but now he is completely aligned and balanced ! I had been experiencing reoccurring shoulder @ lower back pain and can happily say that both are gone ! We all look forward to our sessions and feel it's a great investment in our health ! The front desk ladies ( Crystal & Megan) are wonderful, lots of free parking, the office is very cute and they are very timely and organized! I just read a review about someone being upset about their covid policies and I beg to differ... Dr Garza cleans the chiropractic chair in between patients & his hands - We watch him do it between our turns (even as family members) and everyone wears a mask in the office. We highly recommend Dr Garza and are forever grateful for his care ! Thank you Dr Garza... God Bless you!!! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Garza for the past 23 years. From the time I was a toddler, I suffered from many different physical complications including allergies, severe incontinence, chronic urinary tract/bladder, kidney and ear infections as well as constipation from the endless daily antibiotics. My family had taken me to different doctors and another chiropractor regularly with no improvement for any of the problems I'd had. At 8 years old, my primary care physician had sent me to numerous specialists and after countless traumatizing and uncomfortable tests, they decided that I should have a catheter placed with a urine drainage bag attached for the incontinence. Fortunately, my family wanted a 100th opinion and that was when we started seeing Dr. Armando Garza. Within one week of treatment from him, my infections CLEARED and in two weeks I no longer had incontinence issues. He found that my pelvis was so far out of alignment that the nerves were not communicating to my brain that I had to drain my bladder, which was why I never felt the urge to go.  I was able to stop all antibiotics immediately and the only thing I've taken since for urinary tract health has been cranberry extract (CranActin).   Throughout the years, I continued to see Dr. Garza for all my health-related needs. He has helped me with carpal tunnel syndrome, excruciating menstrual cramps from PCOS, acid reflux and heartburn as well as neck and back pain. Just recently, my mother and I were in a car accident and both of us got bad whiplash. I went to see him right after the ER trip and I haven't suffered through any debilitating back and neck pain or headaches since.    With PCOS, it's typically a little more difficult to conceive and he helped me get my body functioning at as optimum of a level as possible. After two months of trying, in combination of Clomid (prescribed by my OBGYN) and chiropractic care, we got pregnant! I am currently 5 1/2 months along and I have sought regular chiropractic visits with Dr. Garza from day 1. I may be one of the fortunate ones, but I have not had any morning sickness and NO discomfort and I KNOW that that is due to his care and treatment. The only time I feel uncomfortable is when I let too much time pass between a good follow up... Hey! Babies and the extra blood volume gets heavy on your joints! Prenatal chiropractic care is a MUST! I will forever be grateful to Dr. Garza for saving me as a child from the horrific outcomes I would have inevitably faced without his help. Now, as a new mom-to-be, I am so confident and at peace that my baby's health will have the advantage of being in amazing hands.      Mahalo, Dr. Garza! read more

This was the first time trying chiropractic, and it wasn't that great, just a few snaps here n there. I left the place with a relief of pain that lasted for a short time, just like using a salonpas. read more

Dr. Garza is a gift from God. He provides treatment for our family, including our children. He is knowledgeable, kind, and friendly. We have been seeing him for a few years and cannot express how he is a blessing to know. He treats my neck pain and backaches from poor posture and long hours at a computer to my chronic migraines and TMJ that are long gone. My husband sees him for back and knee pain from a prior injury and long hours at an automotive parts shop. And our children see him for regular adjustments, as do we. Thank you, Dr. Garza, for providing us with superb natural alternatives to healing and health maintenance. read more

I love coming to Dr. Garza!!! He is literally the best chiropractor ever. The location is convenient, right in Kalihi so it's totally close to home. The first visit was a lot longer than the other visits just because he has to explain everything and go through everything. The spine is really interesting and he explains why things are happening the way it is and if there is something wrong with your spine. I told him I might has scoliosis and the only way to know for sure is to take an x-ray but he did say you can see it through the curvature of your back when I bend forward. I love how honest and true he is with you and that's what I appreciate the most. I love those chiropractor videos onlines so I always get a kick out of it when he cracks everything. Idk why, I just love it so much! Parking is free, he is located on the second floor so the only problem I see would be if patients have a hard time coming up the stairs. However that's not the case for me so everything is good. After your initial visit, the visit time will shorter and you'll just go to adjust the next and back and done. Definitely do recommend! He's so kind and actually thanks everyone for waiting. I also like the front desk receptionist, Sheena! She's awesome! read more

All right all right all right !! There is a great chiro in town and I've discovered him ! Right in the heart of adorable Liliha the office is convenient to access Lovely space , coffee complimentary , front desk team CHARMING !! But let's get to the good stuff the adjustment ! I'm a barber so I'm all out of whack and the doc , with a few short precise moves , had me all better ! Not a quick fix type thing , I'll have to go back a few times and then for regular visits . I'm so pleased with the reif I got worth every penny !! read more

Dr Garza and Ms Carol are amazing. Not only has Dr. Garza worked with me with my medical payments and such but with my care he's also listened to me, worked through and talked through everything with me step by step and has helped me thoroughly with what I originally went in for and more. I was iffy at first but let me tell you, that first visit helped with my debilitating migraines and more and continues to do so. I so recommend. Give it a try I promise you won't regret it! read more

I was experiencing some lingering back pain and decided to try a chiropractor. I tried shiatsu and it wasn't working for me I went to see Armando today and wow, what a difference. When he adjusted my areas of concern, I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome. Armando explained everything to me and even helped me with other areas I failed to mention. I thank God for the relief I received today. I will be telling my fellow workers about Armando and hope they experience the relief I did read more

My favorite family owned chiropractic business! They are very professional! Dr. Garza has helped me so much with my back, hip pain, fertility issues, & migraines!! He is so knowledgable and kind hearted!!! read more

Although this is not my first time to see Dr. Garza I'm so glad I was reminded to Yelp my experiences. On a recommendation from a friend of mine, I called to make an appointment and spoke to Sheena. She was really sweet and efficient. She emailed me the paperwork I needed to complete prior to me getting to the office for my appointment. When we got there we met Dr. Garza, got to telling home what and where we ached. He asked us a few questions then the real work began. It didn't take very long at all and it was like we were renewed - body, soul, & spirit. Oh what a feeling! I can't explain the relief we felt leaving, and what a difference it made to be re-aligned. If you've never experienced true relief...why wait pick up the phone and call. You won't leave disappointed! read more

Garza Wellness Care Center - Entrance way to feeling so much better! - Chiropractors Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I am so grateful for Dr. Garza! I was experiencing awful migraines however when I went to see Dr. Garza consistently, my migraines lessened a lot! There was a lightness that my head felt, instead of a constant heaviness, after my adjustment. He has also helped my son with his allergies and reflux. When he gets adjusted regularly, his allergies and reflux also improves noticeably. And lastly, he's also helped my young daughter with her alopecia. She had a bald spot about the size of two quarters for about half a year. After her adjustment her hair started to grow back and now she has no bald spot whatsoever! Dr. Garza is kind and compassionate. We fully recommend him to all of our family and friends. Also, Carol at the front desk is always so helpful, kind, and on top of it. Much mahalo to Garza Wellness. You guys are truly the best chiropractic office in Oahu! read more

Dr.. Garza is a very good DO! Very thorough in accessing my pinched nerve, helping me understand the CT scan, diagnosing areas that he felt contributed and he would work on. Finished up with a red light treatment on my spine that felt good (and couldn't hurt). Recommended to me by young professional dancers. Both my husband and I were very impressed! read more

Very impressed! Doc adjusted my hips which was causing major lower back pain. Garza seems very knowledgeable about the human body and how all the body parts connects and interacts with each other. Highly recommended!! read more

I first heard of Dr Garza from my dad. Just recently Dr has been making trips to Molokai to do some work on people here, one of them being my father who deals with arthritis and other stuff. I have Systemic Lupus as well as chronic back pain. Mind you I've never seen a chiropractor in my life and was honestly scared to do so. After much convincing from my father and telling Dr about what I'm going through, I tried it out. Prior to my visit, when my back would give out and I would walk, it would be as if one leg was shorter than the other and I would compensate the pain by leaning on the not painful side. After my first consultation and appt with Dr here on Molokai I could feel a difference. First off, he has amazing bed side manner. Very calm but also very informative of explaining each step or procedure he is doing. Before any step he checked to see if I was aligned or not. Boy was my whole body out of whack. Totally not aligned and no surprise to me I was definitely one leg shorter than the other and I could feel it when he stretched me out prior to starting. After about 10-15 minutes of doing his magic and doing a re-measure...I was aligned again and I never felt better. I saw him two more times after and each time I feel so much better. And what he does is much more than re-aligning your bones...its all got to do with your nerves as well and he explained that. If you ever need an adjustment....I recommend Dr Garza and Garza Wellness Care Center. You won't be disappointed. read more

From Dr. Garza's top-quality care and knowledge in the field to his most gracious and accommodating receptionist, Carol, who always helps to fit me into our very busy schedules, are some of the many reasons why I HIGHLY recommend Garza Wellness Care Center! Over the past 15 years of living on the islands and visiting multiple chiropractors, Garza Wellness Care Center has consistently been number 1. I'm forever grateful to you Dr. Garza, Carol, and the rest of the staff! Thank you! read more

I don't go to chiropractors very much, usually just when something is out of alignment and it's been a while. Dr. Garza was able to get me in on the same day and the relief was fairly instantaneous! Very informative and professional, clean offices, friendly front desk staff. Couldn't ask for anything else. Thank you! read more

I see dr Garza once a week and have been for the last few years. Every visit he gives me all of his attention and truly care about my treatment. I have Multiple Sclerosis and live with a terrible amount of pain daily. His adjustments and the deep muscle work he does really helps and gives me much relief which helps my quality of life. I so appreciate his attention to detail and the vast knowledge he has through continuing education. It's always nice to know that you have dr whose interested in learning and improving his craft. This past year he went through training to become the first Neurological Relief Center in Hawaii. This new technique is amazing!!! You should ask him about it!! Good job Dr Garza!!! Thank you Dr Garza, I so appreciate you and am so thankful that I have found you. read more

Dr. Garza is the best! He took time to explain what was going on with my back problems and the numbness in my fingers. He also made a plan to help those problems get better,I can't wait till my next appointment! He's a must go to chiropractor. read more

Dr. Garza is one of the best Chiropractor's I've been to. He's very personable while maintaining professionalism. I recommend him to all my friends and family. read more

As a child, I would get many headaches and was able to "handle" them through medication and massages. It wasn't until I was treated by Dr. Garza that, through adjustments, I no longer use pills to help me function. I've also dealt with painful and debilitating menstrual cramps as a teenager and well into my adult years. I would frequent the OTC aisles until, during one of my visits, Dr. Garza shared with me about the power of helping my body naturally heal itself. He thoroughly explained that through adjustments and proper alignment, he would be able to help my cramps. I couldn't believe that an adjustment as well as consistent visits throughout the years have literally rid me of my menstrual cramps that I've been dealing with for many years! My whole family sees Dr. Garza even my two kids, ages 13 and 11. They have been treated by him for many years and he is one of the few doctors that they feel very comfortable with. As young children, they would get adjustments, but Dr. Garza would always use the appropriate technique for their ages and stages; Very professional and knowledgable. THE most genuine and patient Doctor! I never feel rushed and am always educated on what I should be expecting from each visit; He always puts my family's mind at ease AND my kids love visiting Dr. Garza. We live on the opposite side of the island from where his office is located, but will continue to drive far across this island to be treated by him. read more

Always reliable , friendly & able to accommodate my busy schedule. Feel great after every adjustment.

Dr. Garza is not only an amazing chiropractor... he's great assisting in other ailments as well! I didn't realize this until I decided to see him again after 3 (or more) years of not coming. My neck was bothering me so badly... After that first adjustment, I was hooked again. I asked about my carpal tunnel issues, then my plantar fasciitis, my plugged ears, then my sinus issues and allergies... and he was able to check the severity on each and had a solution for them. He's always informative, patient, and just a positive and mellow spirit -- which always makes for a pleasant visit. I recommend him to all my friends and family! read more

Our minds are deeply connected to our bodies and any interruptions in our spinal cord will affect how we feel and think. Dr. Garza is the first practitioner I've met that TRULY understands this and has the ability to heal on many levels. I've had many many many adjustments done by very talented chiropractors but Dr. Garza is special. A very special soul put on this planet to change lives for the better. I 100% agree with every single raving review here! Take care of your body, mind and soul FRIENDS! I can confidently recommend Dr. Garza to everyone and even say he's THE BEST chiropractor/healer on the island! read more

Dr Garza over the past year and half has helped me so much!! I have injury from car accident disc herniations nerve impingement etc and carrying baby now and busy mom life. He keeps my pain manageable. At one point before having my baby he helped me so much that I was able to stay away several months feeling good. With my health condition seeing him regularly keeps me feeling so good. So nice that I've finally gotten around to writing. I hope more people can come here and get to feel as good as I do after my adjustments. Also front desk always helpful and sweet. Squeezing me in with my hectic schedule. Couldn't have a better chiropractor than Doctor Garza! read more

This is the second time I've left a review for Dr. garza but after today's adjustment, I just had to come back and rave about him again. Dr. Garza's commitment to his patients' wellbeing is unparalleled. I've been a chiropractic patient since college (okay. 20+ years, but who's counting) and have a myriad of spinal issues. But this recent persistent radial pain implied that my bulging disc between c6 and c7 was getting worse. I haven't slept well in months, and the pain was so bad at times I felt sick to my stomach. Today was my fourth session in two weeks to try and get to the root of the pain. Dr. Garza was concerned that we hadn't made more progress with my pain management and asked me if he could try a deep adjustment of my c-spine; right at the base of my neck. I sit here, 40 minutes later, in tears of relief. I had no idea the magnitude of pain and pressure I had been carrying around ...everything feels open, clear, and pain free. I have complete restoration of mobility. In Dr. Garza, you'll find a doctor who listens, remembers, considers all the options, weighs the variables, and doesn't stop until you feel better. Plus, his staff is wonderful, his office is conveniently located, and he can usually squeeze me in if I'm having an emergency. Mahalo piha. read more

I can't thank Dr. Garza enough, he's amazing at what he does. I had initially gone in because I was having terrible migraines and wanted to try a more holistic approach to healing. During my first session, Dr. Garza took the time to speak with me about lifestyle, work and other factors as to why the body reacts the way it does. He connected all the symptoms and his observations and put me on a series of treatments to help me back on track. The first session will be the longest (about an hour) with the follow up sessions to range between 15-30 minutes. I'be been meaning to put up a post after my first session but couldn't find the time. I've seen Dr. Garza over half a dozen times and he's still the best. He's a humble man that works out of a comfortable office near Liliha Bakery with ample parking. read more

Dr Armando is amazing. My first time at the chiropractor in my life and he has helped my quality of life so much. He is really blessed. I had / have all sorts of problems but my first time seeing him I NEED TO SAY HE HAS already helped my problems improve tremendously! Since then I've been in once more and plan to go back next week! He's kind and makes/helps me to feel comfortable he's always very gentle and has an amazing spirit . He's helped so many of my issues acid reflux, anxiety, neck ache and headache and more! Thank you doctor! My ONLY GO TO #1 chiropractor! ! read more

I was referred to Dr. Garza by a coworker who even brings his 10 yr old to Dr. Garza. He is an amazing chiropractor! What set him apart (for me) from other chiro's I've seen is his approach to only adjust what needs adjusting. He checks up my whole spine and only adjusts things that are misaligned, i.e. he doesn't go through the same routine each time and then rush me out the door. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Garza for anyone with chronic pain. I'd been struggling with low back pain and hip pain that was pretty constant and was slowly getting worse and worse. I tried a lot of different things including several rounds of PT, massage, acupuncture, and another chiro. But within a few weeks Dr. Garza had me feeling better than I had for years. I'm really kinda blown away. I'm a lot happier and more active for it. He's also always so kind and easy to work with. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Garza since 2014 and he has helped me so much. My life has completely changed over the last 4 years and the work that Dr. Garza has done with me has made that possible. In 2014 when I first started to see Dr. Garza I had constant widespread pain particularly in my neck shoulders and head. After tests for everything under the sun and every kind of treatment imaginable I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, but it always seemed there was more to it. I had x-rays and MRIs of my neck over and over, and was always told that there was very little structural damage, but it just kept getting worse. After I graduated nursing school in 2011, all I had left to do was take my nursing licensing exam but I was in too much pain to study for it. I had to move back home, just when I thought I would be starting my life it felt like it all ended. I worked less and less, quitting entirely by 2015. I stopped contacting friends and swore of off of romantic relationships. It all just seemed too hard. I rarely left the couch for a few years. By the time I started seeing Dr. Garza I was on a number of medications including Morphine, Percocet, Ativan, and Soma. And I was still in constant pain. Initially I saw Dr. Garza for chiropractic adjustments which gave me some of the only relief I ever experienced at the time. Later, I began seeing him for NRCT (neural relief center technique) a technique that works to help relax the nervous system and relieve tension. After my first session I noticed less pain and the more I saw him, the longer the relief would last. Another interesting thing is I always felt unbearably hot, but after the sessions that would go away. By the time I finished the treatment I felt like a new person. The amazing thing was the treatment seemed to calm down my nervous system enough that I could focus on where the pain was actually coming from and Dr. Garza would address those issues. In 2016 I was able to explain to an orthopedic surgeon where the issue really was and he found some nerve impingent in my shoulder and after surgery my pain decreased even more considerably. The doctor never would have found that issue if I hadn't gotten help from Dr. Garza. I was also diagnosed with a hyper mobility disorder and Crohn's disease, both of which Dr. Garza helped me with. The nutritional counseling he did with me helped immensely with my Crohn's symptoms (severe pain and digestive distress)and now I am in remission and almost completely symptom free! Today, I am way less pain. I can truly say I have a great life. I am off of all narcotics, I passed my nursing exam! I have been in a relationship with a wonderful man for over three years, I have great friends, and now I have a job! I truly never thought I would get my life back, Thank you Dr. Garza! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Garza for years. He's the best chiropractor that I know of. I like the "hands on" way of adjustment and not just using machines. My job is pretty demanding physically and I can get into some weird positions that make my back twist and bend. Whenever it gets "stuck" or "out of whack" he can put it right back. He and his staff have the best personality around. Always willing to help with what you need. I highly recommend this place! read more

Everyone in our family- and many friends- are very happy patients of Dr Garza. He works with the seniors in the family, all the way down to the kids. He is gentle, humble, kind, extremely knowledgeable, talented, and makes everyone feel welcome and worthy of his attention. And he can really fix you up! I have many happy friends that I have referred to him- and now their families will go there, too... thanks for all that you do, Dr Garza! I would also like to mention there is easy parking, free coffee and water, and most of all, a gorgeous, warm and loving, and smart and funny front desk manager- you will always feel welcome and like family. read more

Dr.Garza helps me feel relax a lot. Very nice and patient customer service. I really appreciate it

This review is specifically about Dr. Garza's covid policies. I've been to quite a few health care offices this year and I've never felt as unsafe as I did here. Dr. Garza did not wear his mask properly (covering his nose and mouth during the consultation) and gave me the "option" of wearing my mask during the adjustment. It was not apparent if he washed/sanitized his hands between patients. I really hope they decide to update their covid policies for the sake of the health of our community. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Garza for my chronic neck and back pain and he's helped me tremendously. I've felt so much clarity mentally from his neck adjustments and it's helped me a lot with being able to feel good enough to create more music. I'm so grateful for his skill and appreciative of his kindness. You won't be disappointed by your visit. He's more than willing to listen to you on how your body is doing. Great Bed side manners! read more

I did not believe much in the practice of chiropractic medicine before I came to Dr. Garza's office for help and healing of my digestion problems and IBS- D. He has the gift of healing hands and is guided by both his training and his 6th sense of what the body needs. He is very gentle and it is very plain that his primary concern is the healing and comfort of his patients. I have been to many doctors, accupuncturists, naturopaths, and other chiropractors over the last 12 years without finding much relief from my symptoms from IBS-D until I came to Dr. Garza. Over the course of this past year, My symptoms have been slowly improving and I am getting better. His two receptionists are living testaments to his successful treatment of their digestion problems and I am encouraged and inspired by them. He has also been able to diagnose and detect the sources of my problems with a very different but simple method of using kinetics and a sense for energy flow. No lab work ups! He can even figure out the dosage of supplements that my body needs using these methods. His diagnosis are confirmed by my lab and blood work tests ordered by other doctors. He is a truly amazing healer! read more

Dr. Garza is the Best Chiropractor and his assistant Sheena is really awesome too. Once you come into the office, you feel so much Aloha. He explains everything throughly with the exam and during treatment. Felt sooooo much better after the first initial visit. I would most definitely recommend seeing Dr. Garza. I wish I had seen him sooner with my problems. It made a really big difference after the initial visit. Thank you YELP and reviewers for helping me find such an AWESOME Chiropractor!!! read more

Dr Garza and his staff are wonderful. Dr Garza has helped me for over 5 years and has helped tremendously with my allergies and body adjustments. Have recommended him to many of my friends and family. You will walk out of his office a new and improved person. Give him a try and you'll be glad you did! read more

I can honestly say I am a true believer in chiropractic care only because of Dr. Garza. He listens to my concerns and pays attention to the issue's that is the cause of my discomfort. It all started when one day I woke up one morning and just couldn't get out of bed. My lower back and left leg was really hurting bad. I couldn't even stand up straight and could barely walk. Anyway, my girlfriend told me about her chiropractor that she had been seeing for awhile and highly recommended. Well, out of desperation I called and made an appointment. Luckily he was able to see me that afternoon, so I dragged myself down to his office. Long story short, after a quick consultation and examination. He did quite a few adjustments which apparently I needed because I was, as I like to say "crooked". Then, and I'm not kidding, instantly I felt better. The pain was 100% gone, I was standing up straight, and I must have been "crooked" for awhile because I felt "brand new". Since then I've been going back to see Dr. Garza to get regular tune-ups because we all put our bodies through stresses. If you like to get out and be active, it pays to to keep your spine healthy. I'm a believer! read more

Love Dr. Garza. I wish he was open on Thursdays, though. He is patient, gentle, and he is great at educating you about your bones, spine, muscles and how everything works together. Such a kind doctor who gets the job done! I had all kinds of pains and he fixed them all in one visit! Even my heartburn! Go see him. You'll love him, too. read more
