I had a great experience. The staff are all quite professional and Judy's massage was amazing and she was also very kind. Dr. Gulick was great, giving many tips and explaining everything thoroughly. They were efficient and I was in and out of my appointment with no delays. read more

Great Deal on Chiropractic services and Massage. It's a nice to get the massage with your adjustment. Very professional and doen't break the bank. read more

I bought a Groupon for a 55-minute customized massage with posture evaluation, chiropractic consult, and exam. This is my second experience with a chiropractor (the first was another Groupon deal I had bought a couple months ago). The office was not as high tech as the one I had been to previously but Dr Rubens was kind and knowledgeable and pointed out a couple of things that the other doctor hadn't told me about my spine. He does seem to genuinely care about your well-being, he even gave me an adjustment even though that wasn't part of the Groupon I had bought! The massage with Tonya was amazing. Again, I've had limited experience but I've never had anyone get into all the nooks and crannies like she did. read more

Low Cost and The messages feel good. They help me get rid of headaches and they are relatively available as far as appointments are concerned. They have been on groupon a few times so check their for deals! You can walk in or make an appointment. They offer massages and Chiropractic services. read more

I want to recommend one of the Massage Therapists, Monica - She was excellent - friendly and professional, didn't talk during the massage, listened to my requests, used the exact level of pressure I asked, and, overall, she made me feel much better! read more

Just had the best massage of my life here. Ask for Judy, you won't regret it!! That woman has a GIFT for finding & fixing the bad spots that your work/lifestyle create. My husband got a massage at the same time from another masseuse (didn't catch the name) and was equally happy. We practically rolled out of that office, we were so relaxed. Staff was not only professional, but also relaxed and friendly, which I really enjoy. Has a touch of a laidback atmosphere. Like many others, I found this place through LivingSocial, but forgot to use my deal before it expired. Guru still honored the amount I paid for the voucher, and I paid a minimal additional amount (I think it was $10 extra). I love it when experiences are this easy. My husband's masseuse mentioned something interesting..."People are good about maintaining their cars, but they aren't as good about maintaining their bodies. Your car can be replaced, but your body can't." Amen. Now go get a massage. read more

Went back to Guru last week for shoulder pain Dr Rubens took care me I highly recommend him.

Tonya!!! was the best massage therapist I've had in a long time, she is not afraid to touch and HEAL you. I walked out lighter and smiling. She is amazing!!! Dr. Ruben, a smile and a touch removed the tight shoulders. The cool thing was he wasn't running to adjust my body just for the sake of adjusting. He told me the things I need to do on my own and relieved the tightness I was caring in my shoulders. This is NOT your DAY SPA! This is the REAL THING -- it's about healing. read more

I only go here for the massages and only see one masseuse, LETI. Been going to place for just over a a year and I have been to other places when I saw a good Groupon or Living Social Deal, but she is the best I have had. i tried one of her co-workers for massage and was left sore. From now on, will only see her when I need a massage. Don't let her small size fool you she can put in work on your back and legs. I've been to her six times and leave very relaxed. The places is kept very well and quiet so you can relax. They seem to always be running a special of $39/hr massage. Get it and specifically request Lety. read more

My fiancé and I had bought groupons for 55min massages and adjustments at this establishment a few months ago. This afternoon we went in to redeem them, the location was easy to find and there was paid parking in front, although we did not notice the fees sign until we were leaving. Luckily we did not get ticketed! We went in and filled out a few forms, had some water and both were taken back immediately! Which was nice, since when I scheduled our appts. they were booked and we were not going to be able to be seen at the same time. Doctor Gulick was actually my masseuse today which I was fine with, considering he is a doctor with more knowledge and experience. I was very relaxed and refreshed after the hour was finished! My squeeze said that he had enjoyed his as well! We followed up with a 5-10 min wait in the lobby to see Dr. Gulick again for the adjustments. He is very attentive and thorough! Staff is nice and friendly. It was wonderful and we look forward to future visits! read more

Excellent Everything is great specially Judy 's massage. She is so polite, expert and professional.I had a massage with her yesterday and it was the best massage that I have had in my life. I highly recommended going there and getting Judy massage. read more

Went with a Groupon and the massage was excellent! The masseuse worked out the knots in my back muscles with tremendous strength. She was well trained, friendly and professional. Nice facility: clean and quiet. I'm definitely going back (even though my insurance won't cover it) because the hourly rate is dirt cheap ($39) for what you get! read more

staff is always so welcoming, office manager got me in to see Dr Rubens when Dr Gulick was off and needed to be adjusted asap. Massage therapists are also amazing, Ask for Summer! read more

I am extremely grateful to Dr. Gulick for his knowledge and sensitive approach to helping me get pain and discomfort free. I was recommended to him by a friend after an array of disappointing visits to Orthopedic doctors, other Chiropractors and Physical Therapist that didn't help me. I have suffered from bulging disc's in my neck and tendon damage to my right shoulder for the past 5 months to the point of not knowing if I could continue to do my work! Upon calling Guru Chiropractic I was greeted by a lovely receptionist who advised me to bring reports & MRI's to my first visit. Dr. Gulick went over all my reports with me and assured me that my diagnosis was not as dismal as previous doctors had said. I have been seeing him twice a week and in less then 3 weeks with his adjustments and guidance on how to do some simple exercises I am sleeping through the night, the terrible numbness & pain I was experiencing has been relieved to a point that I am starting to enjoy my life again. I look forward to my health being restored completely and being back on the dance floor soon! Thank you Dr. Gulick for your wonderful care. read more

The doctors and staff at Guru Chiropractic are awesome. I'm so excited about their new office location in Culver City - I've gone to other chiropractors occasionally over the years but always come back to Guru as the best, even if I have to drive 30 or 40 miles to get there. It's totally worth it. They really take the time to listen to you and to work with you individually. It is a very therapeutic experience. I love the peaceful environment, the skilled professional massage therapists and Doctors Rubens and Gulick who really know what they are doing. There is always that extra touch that sets them apart, whether it's the thicker padding on the table to make it more comfortable or the soothing music. You immediately know that it's ok to relax when you get there. I always feel 100% better by the time I leave. I usually try to see them once a month unless I have any urgent issues and need help right away (like the time when I was lifting heavy boxes from the wrong posture) and they have helped me to be pain-free, able to work and stay healthy year-round for many years. read more

Iwas in so much pain untill i came to the guru. These are the best docotrs around and they really take care of thier patients. I will never go anywere else.. read more

I appreciate Dr. Rubens. He helps adjust me energetically and gets rid of all my aches. For people wanting to get cracked, this is not the practice. For people wanting to fine tune their bodies to work synchronously, then this is the place. This goes beyond Chiropractics. I have been going for four weeks and have noticed a difference in my energy and sleep and no more pain. He has also helped me with my hip compensation. read more

I cannot recommend this healing center highly enough. From Muriel's deep tissue massage to Dr. Gulick's additional deep tissue work and adjustments...I leave this office feeling like I've actually treated the pains I walked in with. read more

This place is a gem. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Rubens and Dennis. The adjustment and massage were exactly what I needed. They were super friendly, personable and most importantly, very effective. It was one of the deepest and best massages I've had in a long while...and the adjustment has me feeling like my head is finally on straight. THANK YOU A MILLION!!! read more

I went there on a groupon. Got an adjustment and a deep tissue massage. The adjustment was good. Lot of cracks, no pain. The massage was really good too. I got my massage from Tanya. I had a large knot in my back that Tanya was able to quickly pin point. She then asked if I wanted her to just focus on that knot. I was like, "hell yes!" There's nothing worse than having pain in your back, and having somebody waist your time and money massaging your legs or something. Tanya focused on my knot like it was hers. After 30 minutes, she was able to work it out, and i feel much better. I would go back for sure. read more

This is the kind of an Office that you immediately feel at home. Their professionalism and ther great bedside manner make you feel completely at ease. Doctor Ruben gives you the confidence that your pain will be dealt with, and you will have a speedy recovery. I recommend them wholeheartedly! read more

I had bought this deal off Living Social and was really excited to try it because I've never had a chiropractic exam. Things did not start out well from the very beginning. When I called in to make the appt, I spoke to Dr Rubens and he was very rude. He spoke rushed and very condescendingly. When I arrived for my appt, I was really dismayed to see how dirty and old the office was. I have been to many places for massages and this did not seem hygienic at all. My therapist was very sweet though and she did a great job. When I went to pay though I was really sketched out that Guru has a completely "mobile" office. They work off one laptop and the receptionist uses her cell phone to run your credit card. This is a business that could pack up overnight if needed. I will not be going back and I will be writing to Living Social. read more

I am usually someone that really cares about ambiance, i like a certain estheitic when getting massages, facials or the like. That being said Guru is not exactly my style normally, HOWEVER, I had one of the best massages of my life here and an incredible adjustment, so who cares about esthetics when it really comes down to it. The massage was really intense in a good way, it seemed like the person working on me (Monica I believe) actually cared about where my tension was and seriously worked out my knots. Then I met with the Chiropractor who like everyone else said actually seemed to be completly passionate about his field. He told me I had to stop cracking my own neck and back and told me why it was so bad for me. As a dancer I have always been able to crack myself, did it daily and I thought it was a good thing! It turns out it isn't and I should only be letting a professional do. I am going back again a week later and am really excited about my second appointment. They are very affordable and everyone that works that has been lovely to deal with. Highly recommend this place. read more

I bought the LivingSocial deal and so far have been unable to make an appointment with them. I am called several times on weekdays between 9 and 5 but the message on their 800 number says there is no one at this ext. This seems strange to me, as does a local business with an 800 number, it seems very impersonal. If they ever call me back to set up an appointment I will update this review, but so far I am frustrated. read more

I was wrong about my review and the bad comment that I made to GURU Chiropractic, the e-mail that I sent to them went directly to spam so they never got it, they called me and apologized to me, they are very professional and they do care about giving a good experience to new customers. read more

I haven't yet been here but I'm already sorry. I bought a livingsocial voucher, otherwise I wouldn't be going. They've canceled my appointment 2 times now, once because they didn't realize the day they set my appointment for would be a holiday. UGH! read more

ok guys this is an update of my previous review. Dr. Rubens from Guru Chiropractic had offered me a complimentary massage in lieu of my bad experience. My massage therapist was Tanya and she was amazing . She massaged like a pro and was very professional asked me the problem areas and worked on it. Ohh Man..... wat a great experience this time. I will definitely go there again wand would like to have massage from Tanya read more

Dr. Gulick has an amazing approach to treatment that is both unique and comprehensive. Did amazing work on my mid back on first session, already feeling amazing results. read more

i bought the living social deal for a massage and chiro exam because i love massages (who doesn't) and have been having some tweaky stuff in my lower back along the waistline. after reading the reviews, and quite frankly making my appointment with the sweet but unprofessional receptionist, i wasn't too excited about using it. i'm so glad i went anyway! the reviews are right about the ambiance: it's lacking. but let's just be clear - when you're face-down on a massage table, do you care? ok, so the music is pretty loud (and what the heck is muzak doing to "light my fire / blue monday" ????) but overall, it's a simple, non-swanky joint in culver city. if it were a bar, you could order a jack and coke and not be ripped off AND not have to deal with "trendy lurkers" ... just don't ask for a hoity-toity "red" i did have to wait about 30 minutes because i was supposed to see the doc first. finally miss sweet but unprofessional (and cute in person, but still) suggested i see the massage therapist first. lettie (letty, leti, don't know) was amazing. i mentioned my problem and she had a few theories, then asked if i wanted to have a whole body massage or concentrate on the back. i said the back, and she went right to work. and i mean deeeeepppp work. she also mentioned specific muscles that i seemed to be holding tension in other than my waistline. i love that in a masseuse! tell me what's wrong so i can be aware of it and say, not hunch, or not hold tension, or whatever. cause sometimes we're so used to our tension that we no longer recognize it as tension. yes, i was sore afterwards. in a wonderful way. then i saw the doc, laurent rubens. just like another reviewer said, he was so gracious! said i was lopsided (yeah, i figured that...) but most people are. adjusted me and said i would be fixed for as long as *I* wanted to be... meaning... *I* was responsible for doing the exercises that he showed me and paying closer attention to my posture. he even said that there was no "real reason" to come back in unless something drastically changed. chiropractic couldn't necessarily help me. i didn't get sold a bill of goods, like some chiros try to. the guy is a gem. so nice. also a gentle chiro... he paid attention to my tenseness (hey, first time to see a bone cracker is always a little nerve-wracking) and DIDN'T push to get a crack. he just said "well, that side doesn't want to be pushed today" and did another tactic. i wish they weren't so far from home, though i do go to that area of town some and will be back. and i have friends nearby that i'm specifically going to recommend them to. yep. that good and nice. just don't expect much to see... :) read more

I have been coming here for almost a year, with chronic neck pain from an old injury. Thanks to regular treatments with Dr Gulick, I finally feel pain-free and able to move without limitations. Dr Gulick seems to really care about his patients, and I appreciate his intuitive and gentle approach to his chiropractic treatments. read more

I came here for a chiropractor visit with Dr. Ruben and a 50 minute massage. I was incredibly impressed with Dr. Ruben. He was very friendly and knowledgable. He immediately identified my trouble spots and helped me figure out ways to improve on my own. He also did an adjustment. It was my first time getting one and it was amazing. I get migraines and this really helped. I immediately felt relief from all the tension in my shoulders. I also got a 50 minute massage from Tanya which was also really great. I am surprised by the one star review. Not only was the massage well over fifty minutes but it was also easily the best one I have had. My bf had Desiree and he was also really happy with her. It was very relaxing and since I stand up at work for 8 hour shifts this was much needed. Overall I was very impressed by the office, the staff, and the doctor. read more

I can't speak for the chiropractor, but the massage was very "meh" kind of like paying someone to rub oil on your back - I would have been better off at one of the established massage places around the area. read more

Oh my word!!! If you want a deep tissue massage thatll rock your world, ask for Judy! Thank you Groupon for introducing me!!!

I purchased a Groupon for services a couple of weeks back... To start, making the appointment was friendly and pleasant. Once I arrived and checked in, I was greeted by Dr. William Gulick, D.C., He was so caring, patient and educational. The initial adjustment and conversation was top notch. I felt like he connected with me and sincerely cared about my overall well being. Now part II was a 55 minute massage. OMG!!!!AWESOME!!!!! Did I say AWESOME!!!!!. Sold, I grabbed my calendar and made my future appointment with the intentions of focusing on my well being on a regular basis. Thank You GURU Chiropractic Services read more

I started with a Groupon and I was impressed how nice and affordable they are. Judy gave me a wonderful therapeutic massage and she was fun to chat with. I am about to call for another appointment. read more

I had a very pleasant experience. I went to Guru because I had a Groupon. At first, I was a little put off because they double booked my appointment, so I had a bit of a long wait (I should add, however, that I got an appointment for the day after I first called, which was impressive). To make up for the wait, Dr. Rubens offered me a free adjustment, which was great. I was expecting the folks at Guru to be really pushy because I had a Groupon (I had used a Groupon at a similar place before and I was told I should come back twice a week at $50 a pop - no thanks), but both Dr. Rubens and the masseuse were not pushy at all and just gave me helpful advice for stretches and other things I could do at home to improve my posture. I see that they also offer returning customers $39 massages, and $59 for a massage and adjustment, which is very reasonable. I will be going back. read more

Bought a groupon and went by there the same day. No problem getting an appointment. Receptionist was very friendly and Tanya, my masseuse was great.. Definitely going to be a regular. read more

I was very pleased with all services from Guru - from the very helpful receptionist to the extremely knowledgeable chiropractor and the most incredible massage by Judy. I tried Guru with a Groupon and have returned for more visits. Also bought gift certificates for massages! They offer very reasonable post Groupon deals!! Great experience!! read more

Making the appointment was easy and the receptionist was friendly, yet efficient. My massage was excellent. Judy addressed my areas of concern which had been bothering me for weeks. I felt good when I left, but I felt even better the following day. I was pleasantly surprised to realize the stiffness and nagging pain were greatly reduced. I will definitely return! read more

I've been treated by both of the chiropractors, Dr. Rubens and Dr. Gulick, and I highly recommend both of them. They do have different styles, so perhaps you'd want to try them both out, to find which one you prefer. They've both got great space about them, clearly love being of service to people, and besides the actual adjustments, give good advice on exercise and so on. The folks in the office are friendly and helpful. I've never had to wait beyond my appointment time. The office is "basic", nothing fancy, but perfectly adequate, and the location is convenient for me. read more
