I've been coming to this acupuncture clinic for over a year for chronic low back pain and mobility issues and it has made a huge difference in how my body feels and functions. I originally started coming in because of persistent tightness and pain in my lower back, and this place has become one of the most important parts of my care routine. Farah is absolutely amazing. She is incredibly skilled, gentle, and efficient. Her needle work is so quick and precise that it's basically painless. I feel very safe and well-cared-for with her, which matters a lot when you're dealing with chronic pain and body tension. Every session feels intentional and tailored to what's going on in my body that day. The front desk experience is just as great. Sonia is the best! She's so nice and always makes check-in and scheduling easy. It genuinely makes a difference to be welcomed by someone so kind and on top of things. The clinic is easy to get to with a small parking lot plus plenty of street parking which is a nice bonus. I consistently leave my sessions feeling more relaxed, less tense, and noticeably better in my body. If you're looking for acupuncture for back pain, chronic tension, or overall body balance, I can't recommend this place enough. read more

I went in for acupuncture and the acupunctist Akhavan Farahanaz was incredibly rude and lacked empathy when I talked about a delicate health condition I am currently dealing with. she made it a point to tell me there was no "cure" for my condition in a very cold manner! Also talked down to me and just her vibe was off! Basically lectured me on how acupuncture really does nothing for you it's not a cure bla bla bla! Maybe by law she has to say that not sure ! As someone who knows people how have been treated with acupuncture and has been recovered from things I am shocked by all she told me! Basically just to treat muscle pain is all she said she can do for me!! nah I'm good! anyway I almost walked out but decided to stay but will never go back! health vibes more like bad vibes !! read more

super friendly staff here. they genuinely care about each of their patients. Been going here for a few months and never once had a bad experience read more

I come here twice a month for acupuncture and I love all the staff and the acupuncturists here. I have severe chronic pain from degenerative disorders, arthritis, and myofascial pain. I had been to acupuncturists before but never felt relief as well as I do here. I am very impressed with their treatment methods and have been able to live a better quality of life since coming here. My chiropractor retired last year and ever since I've been looking for a new doctor to help with pain management type of chiropractic/acupuncture care. Thank you Health Vibes! read more

They exceed my expectations !!! Acupuncturist Farahnaz Akhavan has it all: kind, profesional and knowledgeable . Thanks and Blessings read more

Whatbyou have been treTed eith and rate progress. Doctor reads the charts for details. Hi Tech and quick. 15 minutes under heated massager and needles . read more

Jenni and the Doctor F are great. I love how the doctor explains what he's about to do and informs me exactly what's going on and how he's going to fix it. Jenni is so helpful as well always makes sure you're comfortable and helps you plan your next appointment (she has literally squeezed us in the same day). I've been to 3 different chiropractors before and this is by far the best. read more

A wonderful Chiropractor. Dr. F is great with my kiddo too. We always leave there smiling and taller. I have recommended him to many friends. read more

Dr. Farahanchi is very professional and efficient. Me and my roommate were both referred here after we were both rear ended in separate automobile accidents. The doctor has helped us recover with chiropractic treatment. The facility is small but clean, exactly what I'd want from a chiropractic office. The decorations are not overwhelming, leading to a relaxing environment. Overall, if I were staying in San Diego I would consider being a repeat patient! read more

See all

Dr. Farahanchi is great! First visit here. I've missed chiro! Happy to have coverage again!!So nice, friendly, knowledgeable, takes time to learn about what is going on with your body before treating you. As a retired CMT and chiro employee and a Multiple Sclerosis patient, I fully believe in chiro/natural health alternatives and it's great to be treated again! It's been too long. Great first visit...next time is acupuncture as well! Also love. Thank you, doctor! Looking forward to many health improvements! Btw, he also has an office in Escondido. read more

Came here due to recommendation from my coworker. Decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did. The doctor is so funny so it's easy to crack (pun intended) some jokes with him. I was having bad migraines and he adjusted my neck and I haven't had much of them since I've seen him. He recommended 3 sessions and I'm currently working on seeing him soon. read more

Dr. Farahanci is such a nice, kind, sincere man. He has helped me time and again at this location and his old one in Hillcrest. He want to high school here in USA so his English is perfect, probably better than yours. I have had back pain for a long time, and when it flares up, Dr. F takes good care of me, and also makes me laugh and feel respected and considered like a human being. Very nice adjustments, and i love his traction table that feels like a massage, and his ultrasound with biofreeze. read more

Thank you Dr. Farahanchi for making me feel relaxed and at ease in your care! If you were closer to me, I would see you a couple of times a month. I appreciate your kindness and humor as well. I shall see you sometime next month for a little adjustment and overall heeling. Yes!! I drive 30 miles to come visit this facility. I think your great personality would have made you a very good motivational speaker as well! Thank you! Moji read more

Excellent Chiropractor!!! Respectful, funny, and knowledgeable. His office is super clean (always a plus)!!! And he knows how to explain everything to you. Front desk receptionist is very sweet, and polite. Love the place. Definitely have been feeling better since coming here. Thank you read more

How can I even start? I met Dr. Farahanchi in 2003 when I could barely walk (severe herniated disk, lower back pain crisis). My doctors had told me only surgery would help in my case, but it was risky and only 50% had good results. I had never gone to a chiropractor before, but out of desperation decided to give it a try. Dr. Farahanchi office was very close to my home at the time, so I crawled there (at the time I had a pain crisis - pinched nerve - and I was in very bad shape). Dr. examined me and cracked (manipulated) my back. At the end of the section 90% of the pain was gone!!! I could NOT believe. If someone had told me that I would not have believed, but it was true. I started to see the Dr and started to take his suggested natural supplements. Fast forward 10 years, I have my back 100% under control, have not had a crisis since 2006 and go there every time I have some pain for adjustment (normally about twice a year). I seriously own Dr. Farahanchi a lot and have utmost respect for his abilities and knowledge. If was not for him, I don't know where I would be now. All members of my family became patients there. Also, any problem I have I consult with him. He always has a suggestion (natural treatment). In 2011 I had severe nose allergies and his homeopathic recommendation was the best medicine of all, much better than the strongest prescriptions. Highly recommended. If you have pain and want to try a natural alternative (or lost hope with regular medicine), do yourself a favor and consult wit Ali. He's awesome! read more

I THANK GOD, for PUTTING Dr Farah IN my life . I get RELIEF from the chronic pain..Pain causes me to be DEEPLY depressed and so much unhappiness. With Dr Farah's skills ,I get some relief. Thank you Dr Farah read more

I have been a client for a good few months now and I'm really enjoying the benefits of acupuncture! Their office is clean and neat. Their receptionist has a great attitude every time I go, and helps me make sense of how insurance works. They have a bathroom! haha I personally appreciate this because it's an almost hour-long trip to get there and back home, so I never have to worry. Anyway, Dr. Farahnaz is really easy to talk to about my ailments, but also about life in general. She helps me to better understand how acupuncture works and never hesitates to take the time to do so should I have any inquiries. I am greeted each and every time I arrive and said goodbye to each and every time I leave. I feel very comfortable, welcome and at peace knowing I'm going to be taken care of. Choose this place because you won't regret it. :) read more

This place awesome and the chiropractor is good at what he does. My lower back feels so much better know than it did in years. My skeletal alignment has improved too. When I go walking I used to walk on the right edge of my heels now i walk on my back foot to the front, nice and even. read more

If you are like me and looking for quality care that is still affordable and provided by descent doctors . Look no more. There are so many clinics that advertise and claim they are the best. But not only they are not , they just want to push their products. I have been getting acupuncture and chiropractic care from health vibes . Both doctors are very good and knowledgable. For the first time I could feel that I can trust somebody that is not trying to sell this or that . They get their reputation on releasing patients not like other doctors that keep asking you to come back every week. One more thing, they have a cool membership plan that helped me a lot when I did not have insurance. But now I use my insurance there. Try them you won't regret it. read more

I have been coming to Health Vibes biweekly to receive acupuncture for back pain following a past automobile accident. Dr. Akhvan is very kind and knowledgeable, and I have felt a great improvement in my pain levels. The staff is friendly and helpful. Also, as a once sufferer of frequent migraine headaches, I've noticed that I have not had a single attack in the several months since coming here. This has been such a pleasant disappearance which I'm fairly certain is directly related to the acupuncture as I haven't made any changes to my diet or lifestyle. Thank you, Dr Akhvan and Health Vibes! read more
