I've been seeing Dr. Carmona for the past six years. She expertly helped me navigate through a variety of aliments and was an incredibly helpful source of knowledge when a general partitioner was not interested in diving deeper into physical mechanics to find a non surgical solution. Dr. Carmona is kind and thoughtful and will always do a verbal and physical evaluation prior to an adjustment. Her office is easy to find, with plenty of free parking. read more

I saw Dr. Carmona throughout my pregnancy and I can't recommend her enough! Not only did she help relieve pain I had and make my pregnancy more comfortable overall, but her adjustments helped my baby into a more optimal position for birth as he was turned sideways and needed to be facing my back. Chiropractic care for pregnancy is so helpful and Dr. Carmona is great at what she does. She is such a kind, caring practitioner and unlike other chiros, she doesn't pressure you to come several times a week or even consecutive weeks, but is really effective with each of her appointments. So thankful for Dr. Carmona and would definitely come back if anything else comes up- pregnant or not! read more

If you're looking for relief during pregnancy - visit Dr.Carmona! I've been seeing her since around 20 weeks and I finally have some relief. She takes extra care of her patients and spends time understanding your needs and aches. She has a ton of experience with pregnancy, athletes, and children. Her office is spacious so that it can accommodate your child if you don't have childcare available. I'm in need to schedule another appointment! read more

What an AMAZING experience. Had I known about Heather sooner, I would have come at the beginning of my pregnancy. She addressed all the concerns I was having throughout and previously, she was able to make me feel like I was walking on clouds after! 10/10 also, she is the sweetest!!! read more

Guys do not hesitate to see Heather. At first I was unsure if she only saw woman but that is definitely not the case. Long story short I had back aches, groin pain, and neck stiffness for months. When I first met Heather she was really in tuned with my situation and really listened to me. After that she went to work. I can say after a few visits I am back to running, squatting and holding my kids. Now I see her for tune ups. 100% recommended read more

I don't have the best pregnancies and honestly I put off coming here until I couldn't handle the discomfort anymore. The only regret I have is that I didn't come sooner! I got pregnant soon after I had my first child and I'm pretty sure that's why my body is so jacked up. Dr. Carmona is amazing and although pregnancy isn't when I feel the greatest, she makes it a lot more bearable. I finally am able to get some sleep without being in pain all the time. If you are pregnant and having issues I 100% recommend, I will definitely be coming as much as I can and after the baby is born! read more

I found out my baby is breech at 35 weeks and in a frenzy found Dr Carmona because she is certified in the Webster Technique which can be used to coax babies to turn naturally. I left her a voicemail and she was kind enough to text me back personally to say she was on vacation for the week and if I didn't want to wait, would refer me to some colleagues. We ended up exchanging multiple texts throughout the day as she answered my technique questions and even went out of her way to confirm my insurance coverage details. She's gone above and beyond any health care related customer service I've gotten (while on vacay!) and I'm not even technically a patient yet. I can already tell she genuinely cares about my wellness and isn't in it just for the business. Looking forward to my first session when she's back in office and will update my review then. read more

Let me just say one thing. I am SO grateful to have found Dr. Carmona. I'm 15 weeks pregnant and experiencing pretty heavy back pain in my lower back, and hips. It's hard to imagine what it will be like later on in my pregnancy. When I first found Dr. Carmona, she was educating, helpful, responsive and so warm. Even when I told her I may not come to her office (I was looking for something else, but it wasn't covered under my insurance) she was glad to recommend other chiropractor and told me to reach out if I had any other questions. Other chiropractors I was talking to? I got radio silence. When I had my first appt with Dr. Carmona, she took the time to get to know me, my concerns, shared her personal delivery experience, and complimented me on everything I told her I'd research and done, with some additional suggestions. She had wonderful bed side manner, and was very comforting. Now to get to the adjustment. As soon as I laid on my belly, Dr Carmona started working on my back and explained to me exactly why I was in so much pain. I really appreciated that since others might have played the "guessing" game and then said we needed to do more tests and such to figure it out. She didn't do this at all, and instead worked on it for some time, while still engaging in conversation (to distract me from the pain, yes it hurt) and then performed the adjustments which resulted in an instant 50% improvement. Then for the cherry? Dr Carmona emailed me the following day to see how I was feeling. Not only did she earn a patient for the duration of this pregnancy, but she earned a patient for LIFE :) I cannot recommend her more! read more

Heather is amazing! Her initial spine assessment set the tone for the rest of the treatment and she was able to pinpoint areas of the body that needed work, as well as talk through environmental impacts. She offered realistic recommendations to continue care between appointments (exercises and stretches) and was genuinely invested in my well being. Her countenance is very open and kind. Am so thankful to have found Heather and am excited to return and continue care for optimal health. read more

We love Dr. Carmona! I found her by chance about 3 months ago when I woke up and could not walk. My back, hip and foot pain was a 9 out of 10. I was in so much pain I was willing to try anything. I had never had Chiropractic services before, but knew I needed help. I called the office and explained my situation and was given an appointment for that day. I am so glad that I found her. She was very gentle but yet aggressive to the bottom of my pain. She was very hands on, professional and attentive to my needs. Due to my profession, I am very hard on my body and am always in need of her healing hands. 3 months later, I am walking without pain and continue to see her for maintenance. It is now a family affair, both my husband and son are now patients and Dr. Carmona Fans!! read more

My doulas recc. Heather to me during my first pregnancy and OMG she was a game changer. I always got compliments at how great I looked towards end of my pregnancy, and honestly-I felt great! She also gave me parenting advice that I asked for, and was very helpful. She also adjusted my son when he was a few weeks old and then a few months old. I was able to deliver him vaginally as I had wanted to, and I think that Heather's help in making sure my baby was in the correct placement made a huge difference. I am not pregnant with my second child, and although Heather is not in network with my new insurance, I have decided she is worth paying cash to see her. read more

I saw Dr. Carmona about a month ago for some neck pain that suddenly occurred overnight. After seeing her for three visits she was able to reduce the pain from a 7 to a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10. She also diagnosed the pain as occurring from a bad pillow and sleeping position. I went out and bought a new pillow and sure enough the pain was completely gone within a week! Between the treatment and the quick diagnosis I really appreciated not being strung along for unnecessary revisits as I can imagine will happen at other places. I would have given 5 stars but I have never seen another chiropractor to compare to but I highly recommend seeing Dr. Carmona for any issues related to chiropractic as my experience was fantastic! read more

Dr. Carmona is very knowledgeable and passionate about her job. She is super sweet and empathetic to my pain and injuries. I'm really happy I found someone who understands and can explain why I hurt. After a session with her, I feel immediate relief. I was rear ended in an auto accident. Since then, I had neck, upper back and lower back sprain/strain. My workers comp initially referred me to another provider. When I found out that Dr. Carmona was in network, I was thrilled. I love Dr. Carmona! read more

Dr. Carmona is so AMAZING! I am so glad I found her and took my kids to get seen by her. She is so patient and super sweet and knowledgeable!! I love how passionate she is about pediatrics chiro and that my whole family can be seen by her! I have a newborn and two toddlers and they had such a great experience with her!! My husband got seen as well and felt so much better after!! I am next for an adjustment and I can't wait!! read more

She's so fun. But more importantly she definitely does a great job. My first time at a chiro and she's just very calm and really makes you feel comfortable. Her adjustments really helped my hip. I am only going every 6-8 weeks or so, so not too much. But I'm very happy with her. read more

I was referred to Heather by a coworker. I've had years of back and neck pain, but was always hesitant about seeking help from a chiropractor due to personal insecurities on my shoulder area. Lately, the pain in my neck and back has been pretty bad and I figure it's stress related. I finally made my first appointment for an adjustment, and I am so glad I made the decision to see her. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed as she really worked on my problem areas. She's friendly and knowledgeable. I left feeling like a huge weight has been lifted. I feel no pain or discomfort. I'm looking forward to my next adjustment and many more to come. :) read more

Wow... first Chiropractor visit and I feel amazing. She took her time, and instead of adjusting right away, she made sure the muscles were massaged and loosened so it could really be effective. My neck and lower back were so stiff, and after one visit, I feel great! read more

Dr. Carmona is AMAZING! She made me feel so at home and gave me peace of mind. I like knowing that she is now a part of my wellness journey. She is very knowledgable and truly cares about the lifestyle of her patients and finding the best resources to get them where they need to be. My adjustment was perfect. I walked out of there feeling so much better. I highly recommend Dr. Carmona for all your chiropractic needs. Her friendly and personable approach makes the experience that much better. read more

I loved being pregnant and I'm pretty confident Dr. Carmona is a BIG reason why. I had pretty bad back pain from a previously herniated disc prior to getting pregnant, and by week 16 of my pregnancy the pain was excruciating - I couldn't walk or lay down comfortably, and getting dressed was a huge chore. My OBGYN recommended Dr. Carmona and I'll admit I was skeptical, never having been to a chiropractor and thinking my pain was due to the disc (and likely not solvable easily). I was so very wrong. After two sessions, my pain was considerably less and by three I was moving freely again. It didn't happen overnight but I'm so glad I stuck it out. I continued to see Dr. Carmona weekly or every other week throughout my pregnancy for maintenance and whenever I slept wrong/irritated my back again. Over and over again she helped eliminate any pain that arose. I can't imagine how miserable pregnancy would have been without her care. She's caring, thoughtful, and always willing to make herself available. I'm 10 weeks postpartum and my back is better now than it was before getting pregnant. I highly recommend her services! read more

Dr. Carmona is the 2nd chiropractor I've ever seen, and after a few months of treatment, I will never need to find another. My initial consultation we talked about all the pain I was having: neck pain looking up and down, middle and lower back pain, and sever gastrointestinal issues. Initially I told her these issues just to cover all of my health problems but didn't think there was anything she could do about it with chiropractic therapy. It appears I was wrong. She explained that parts of the spine are connected to the bodies organs, including the stomach. I started receiving treatments twice a week for a month, and then started spreading them out. I am on month number four, and my stomach issues have improved 60-70%, my neck pain went from a 9 down to a 2, and my back does well enough to get me through until my next appointment. What I like most is that she does manual adjustments. After a car accident several years ago, the chiropractor I saw used an "activator" and nothing else. She couldn't believe it. She is able to adjust my neck and back, and I'm a big guy. She also does laser therapy that helps a lot, and some massage. She is also great at taking me last minute if I need it. I can shoot her an email that morning and she will do her best to squeeze me in. I've done it to her several times, and she has never told me no. In short, Dr. Carmona is amazing. Very professional, knows her stuff, but is great at making you feel comfortable. The office in Irvine is small and cozy, and the rest of the staff is great. If my insurance covered more, I would see her on a more regular basis. Highly recommend! read more

Upon entering Dr. Carmona's office I was treated with kindness, respect, and most importantly, was given consideration for my time. There was no lengthy wait, and all of the staff was courteous and helpful. My visit included a thorough examination, a chance to ask questions, and suggested activities I could do at home to prevent the same issues from recurring. Not only did Dr. Carmona alleviate my pain (after just one visit it went away and has not returned), but she followed up to make sure I did not have any residual discomfort and had all of my questions answered. A refreshing side note: Dr. Carmona's treatment plan was to get my pain alleviated as quickly as possible so that I would not have to come back to see her on a long-term basis. I highly recommend Dr. Carmona. She is trustworthy, respectful, professional and knowledgeable. read more

Dr Carmona is a healer. I have been to 5 chiropractors before her and frankly had given up. I have a 11 mm herniated disc that pinches my nerve. When this happens I have no strength in my legs and can barely hold my kids. I can say since I have been seeing Dr Carmona regularly my back pain is at a fraction of what it used to be. I have my life back! I can work out, Coach my son's teams again! I'm grateful to you Dr, you changed my life. read more

Dr. Carmona is the best!! I found her about 6 months ago when I began having severe hip pain. After the first adjustment, my hip felt much better, and a few adjustments later, it was as good as new. Now I go in once a month for maintenance, and my back, neck, and hips feel great! I always look forward to my visits, because they are so enjoyable. Dr. Carmona is very personable, though always professional. She is attentive to my needs (I tell her what hurts and she adjusts it, and then focuses therapy in that particular area). I have seen her interact with other patients as well and you can tell that she invests her time and energy to ensuring that each person has the highest quality of care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a chiropractor! read more

My previous experience with a chiropractor was the complete opposite of the one with Dr Carmona. Dr Carmona diagnosed my issue and helped fix it within just a few sessions. Unlike my previous chiropractor, she's never pushy about scheduling future sessions and suggested the seeing how I feel and if necessary eded to come back. My previous chiropractor would try to schedule me multiple times a week for a month or 2 for any issue. She seems genuinely interested in the well being of her patients. Highly recommend using her! read more

Dr. Heather Carmona is an excellent chiropractor. She is incredibly knowledgeable concerning the human body and overall health and wellness. Her aim isn't to just treat the symptoms but to find and fix the root if the problem. Most importantly for me, she takes her time to listen to her patients. I've never felt rushed, and always leave knowing I got excellent care. read more

I was very skeptical at first since I have tried female chiropractors in the past with no luck. I searched for a sports Chiro and found Dr. Heather's office. Her receptionist, Tandy, convinced me to give Dr. Heather a try and I'm very glad I did. I love that she still does manual adjustments. I'm not a small guy at 6'2", 200lbs, but Dr. Heather has been able to work on me very well. Between her and her massage therapist, Sharon, who I also think is wonderful, Dr. Heather had been able to take my pain level from a 9 to almost gone in just a few weeks. This is something M.D.s haven't been able to do in 3 years. I am so thankful to have found Dr. Heather! read more

Dr. Carmona is amazing at her work! I've never had any chiropractic work done before but she put my mind at ease and I was comfortable with her. From then on I only would go to her to get any kinks fixed. Now that I'm pregnant she was able to adjust my body back to normal! Last thing you want to be when you're pregnant is to be sore and achy! I highly recommend Dr. Carmona for any chiropractic care! read more

I am an ongoing patient with Dr. Carmona. She will work with you with not only to provide hands-on chiropractic care but also gives recommendations on how to deal with pain flare ups in between appointments. Although I suffer from chronic back pain, I always leave her office feeling better than I did upon arrival and usually for 3 days or more. This is huge for me since I have had chronic lower back pain for over 7 years. I definitely recommend her for anyone who is going through chronic lower back pain. read more

Had 5 sessions, all about 30 mins each. The initial 2 sessions were great bc my neck and shoulders were pretty darn tight and Dr. Carmona did a great job of fixing the stiffness and pain. But the 3rd to the 5th sessions involved mostly the use of a heating pad, which I could have purchased and applied at home. I asked either at the end of the 3rd or beg of the 4th session that I wanted more deep tissue work. However, the 5th session had only a few mins of deep tissue work, and mostly the use of the heating pad.....unfortunately I cancelled my 6th/last session and will try using a heating pad for home remedy, and maybe hit a spa for dedicated deep tissue work. Otherwise, Dr. Carmona is pretty good....maybe we just didn't have good patient/doctor communication. read more

My huband's hip was hurting for a month. My right arm was aching and got numb quite often due to sitting at a temporary cubicle at work. It was getting to be unbearable for the both of us. I'm so glad I found Dr. Carmona on Yelp! We love Dr. Carmona! She's very competent, attentive & personable, who really helped us feel better. Relief is immediate. We highly recommend her!!! read more

Dr. Carmona is amazing! She has helped make my pregnancy so enjoyable and she is so accommodating and informative. Love her!

My experience with Dr. Carmona was extraordinary. She really listened to my concerns and addressed each thing with patience and kindness. I came in with low back pain and within a few visits she had me feeling better than I have in months. I have referred all of my family to see her. She is great at what she does and the office is so nice and the rest of the staff are so friendly. Great chiropractic experience! read more

Dr. Heather is amazing! Always treats her patients with the utmost respect. I trust a chiropractor that truly listens to what their patient is saying. I would recommend Dr. Heather to anyone looking for such a doctor. read more

I tried another chiropractor, but I felt something uneasy. They wanted to charge me for a lot of sessions then "look at things three months from now" after I was 32 adjustments in. I went to Dr. Carmona for a second opinion, and I was so glad I did. Dr. Carmona is very professional and has a heart for the business. She explained what my problem was and gave me reasonable ways to treat it. She took ample time to make sure I was assured of my treatment. For comparison, the previous chiropractor took about 3-5 min for an adjustment and about 10 min to explain x-rays before he suggested 32 treatments for a pretty healthy 32 year old male. Dr. Carmona spent about an hour talking about the problems, doing the adjustment, and deciding the right course of treatment which was nowhere near 32 adjustments. I highly recommend Dr. Carmona. On top of all this, she's also a delightful individual! read more

I am so fortunate to have found Dr. Carmona. She was recommended by one of her former instructors. I was experiencing sinus issues and dizziness and thought maybe part of my problem was due to my neck and lower back. I was a little hesitant since she was not in my area plus she didn't take insurance. Well all of that is history. Not only did she work on my back but also my sinuses. She is so gentle plus you know she wants you to feel better. I go to her once a month for maintenance & feel better each time. She will always work to fit you in. I would not go anywhere else. read more

Heather is AMAZING!!! I was going to a chiropractor that was closer to my home and he did a good job but my coworker recommended her so i took a chance and made an appointment. One visit with Heather was 10times better than my old chiropractor! Heather is incredibly nice and genuinely cares about her patients. I highly recommend seeing Heather and you'll find out for yourself how great she is! read more

Dr. Carmona deserves 6 stars. I have very bad Sciatica and Dr. Carmona has been the only doctor to relieve the pain and straighten me out. She is very knowledgeable, informative and truly cares about her patients and their well being. I HIGHLY recommend her!! read more

After seeing many chiropractors over the years, it was refreshing to meet Dr. Carmona. I'm pretty picky when it comes to health practitioners and she met all my requirements: no x-rays, soft tissue massage around the problem vertebrae, communicate with me on how to resolve issues on my own to include a series of exercises to work on between sessions, and have a plan on how we are going to tackle the problem areas. During every session (I have multiple issues in different areas), she checks in with me on what's going on in my life (potential influence on the severity of the pain) and takes great care to go out of her way to fix the issues. The space between every session has increased, and I hope to see her once a quarter soon. I really like Dr. Carmona and will return to her, when I have back pain, and will refer my network to her. read more

Periodic adjustments by Dr Carmona keep me aligned and healthy...and happy. She's a wonderful person and a dependable professional. Thumbs up! Five stars! read more

I am so happy I found Heather Carmona. My whole family sees her. Dr. Carmona is so passionate about what she does and she really listens to each and every patient. She has helped each of my family members with their issues with empathy and grace. She's incredibly knowledgeable and will give you an honest plan of action based on your needs. Truth be told I was initially a little skeptical of chiropractic care, but she has made me a believer. We will be her patients for life read more
