Dr. Jess literally saved my life some 20 years ago--my back kept "going out" doing simple tasks and she worked on me several times to relieve my immediate back and leg pain, but I REALLY APPRECIATE how she didn't hold back and told me, "you will keep having these back problems unless you lose the weight." In these days do "shame avoidance" her words woke me up, and I started cycling and went from 260 pounds down to 190 in about a year, in my mid-40s! Now I am a uber-fit 66 year old cycling 150 miles a week and in the best shape of my life at 175! Thanks to Jess for waking me up to reality and getting me started on my road to health and wellness! read more

I started seeing Jess (Dr. Greaux) several years ago. I saw her for various things - back pain, wrist sprain, sprained ankle. She always got me back on track in a visit or two. The thing I like best about this style of chiropractic treatment, ART, is that there is an emphasis on healing in just a visit or two if possible and teaching you how to manage the injury or weakness through taping and/or exercises. This visit was for knee pain, some related to IT band tightness. Jess did some deep tissue work on the IT band with a pain-relieving lotion then did cupping with a little Chinese cupping therapy kit. With the cups in place she moved my leg in a way it wasn't able to move before she began the treatment because it was too painful. She explained that how she was using them was different than Chinese medicine because she wasn't using meridians. The cupping looked really freaky. Big disks of my skin were sucked up into the cups and the skin turned reddish purple. It can leave round bruises but I didn't get any. She slid the cups around a little with the aid of the lotion on my skin. She told me that I could purchase an inexpensive kit online and treat myself with the cups. I found a small one for about $15 and it has helped a lot. She also put two lengths of spider tech kinesiology tape around my knee to stabilize it. I've tried to replicate this at home though it is hard to get in the same exact spot but I think it has helped some anyway. She also suggested biking to strengthen my quadriceps. In any case, one visit with helpful suggestions and my knee is on the way to better when healing had been stuck. Highly recommended. read more

Dr. Jess has been working with me the past few weeks to rehab my shin splint (medial tibial stress syndrome). Shin splints are annoying and I was really bummed that my running was hampered, but just after the evaluation and some (rather "uncomfortable") massage I immediately started feeling better. Typically, they ask you to go 2x/ week for the first 3 weeks, and then to taper the visits thereafter. The initial evaluation lasted about an hour, the second visit involved a video analysis of my running (apparently I twist my right hip really awkwardly), and then it's some chiropractic work and exercise recommendations for about 20-30 minute visits. Dr. Jess is active and loves dogs, up-to-date, and works hard to get you back on your feet. Service has been great, and there's parking nearby which is also helpful. Sometimes I can't remember all the exercises that are recommended, so I do wish that they were written down with directions. Also, if you don't have a dense (black) foam roller or exercise bands (examples are on her website), doing some exercises can be inconvenient. Being able to book online is also pretty convenient; it's a nice plus. All in all, nice sports-oriented chiropractic work. I do wish they took my insurance, though (Anthem Blue Cross); the visit costs add up (prices are not cheap but not the most expensive I've seen) and the paper superbills for claim submission are annoying. An update - it's been about 4 weeks and my shin is feeling pretty darn fantastic... exceeded my expectations... thanks Dr. Jess!! PS: check out her blog -- it's a good read. :) Link is on the website. read more

Dr. Jess helped me to finally resolve my chronic hip pain. At her insistence I got an MRI which revealed huge uterine fibroids that were causing my hip pain. I just had a hysterectomy last week, and I'm already feeling better. Dr. Jess told me how to get the referral I needed to Kaiser Sports Medicine for the MRI. At my sports medicine appointment, when I mentioned that Dr. Jess was suggesting an MRI, Kaiser Sports Medicine physician Dr. Tara Amanda Shaw scheduled it immediately. Because of Dr. Jess, I discovered the real reason for my chronic hip pain. Now I look forward to a smooth recovery and a possible return to running! read more

Where is the 6th star. Dr. Jess is the reason at 70 that I am still doing pretty much everything I want physically. So well read and keeps up on everything. Honest and very effective. One of the best things around! Thanks Dr. Jess. read more

Everything was just great. Dr. Jess and Mitchell are helping me with my run form with their run analysis and gait retraining. The minor persistent injuries and aches are already going away. The customized therapy and strengthening exercises have really helped. Looking forward to continued improvement. Thank you both. read more

Dr. Jess has a creative and individualized way of treating my knee pain. I have seen many sports medicine doctors and physical therapists for my left knee tracking issues with zero improvement over the past year. These physicians seemed to have put me into a preconceived category of disorder and then just followed the standard scripture for treating it, despite my constant complaints of pain while doing the prescribed exercises and the fact that things were getting worse. Since I started seeing Dr. Jess a month ago, I have discovered so much more about what might have caused my condition and what new remedies I could try for fixing it. It turns out my problem is more complicated than the standard scripture can cover, and ingenuity and experimentation is required to customize a recovery plan that would work for my specific condition. Dr. Jess is the only person I have found that is capable of such creativity. I feel very fortunate to have found Dr. Jess. I can finally feel safe and orientated under her care. Do yourself a favor and see Dr. Jess if you have a long standing condition, as you may be able to revive your journey to recovery thanks to the knowledge, keen observation and individualized care that Dr. Jess will provide. read more

Innersport Chiropractic - Dr. Jess Greaux, she is a dog lover in addition to being a great doctor! :) - Chiropractors Near Me

Dr Jess has helped me tremendously this year. I had sciatica early this year and then been dealing with hip & hip pain which has been feeling better. Early in the year I had to stop running and shes helped me to get back to my feet. She is highly skilled at what she does and super easy to talk to as well. She has lots of experience treating Runners a reason why I began to see her. read more

Dr. Jess is the best. Unlike other chiropractors, her goal is to get you to the point where you don't need to see her anymore. She listens carefully, uses all the diagnostic tools at her disposal (she videotaped me running to look for clues about what was causing my persistent pain), does terrific Active Release Technique, and TEACHES you how to get yourself well. If you are serious about working with someone who will provide you with the tools to keep yourself healthy, you can't do better. I've been to many PTs, chiropractors, and massage therapists, and I think Jess's practice embodies the best qualities of all of those fields. P.S. Her practice is focused on sports medicine. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Jessica Greaux. Over the years I have seen Dr. Greaux for various tweaks and issues that come with the territory of endurance sports. From her chiropractic work, to ART to video analysis and assessments, you can't beat Dr. Greaux's expertise. She understands and is in tune with the body, the athletic mind (and our desire to 'get back to training' asap) and she simply knows her stuff. It helps tremendously that she is an athlete herself. She walks the walk, as they say. As a professional triathlete, my livelihood depends on my ability to train day after day and perform on race day. I trust Dr. Greaux. She helps me help myself and she'll do the same for you. read more

I'm the Yelp Dutchess of Innersport Chiropractic!!! Wait...that means I've paid HELLLLLA money into this place...but...there is no price to relief. I've had plantar fascitis since November 2011, and I've tried all the stretching, light on leg activities, but to no avail. I USED to get out of bed and hobble over towards the bathroom, but after my FIRST visit with Sandy at Innersport, I was up and in the shower before I realized....wait...I didn't hobble...nothing hurt walking into the shower? This has cost MONEY and MANY MANY follow up visits because I cannot put a cost on pain relief...but even after the FIRST visit...Sandy with her magic hands has made me a believer in Innersport Chiropractic care. With her massages and adjustments, I have been able to see the light in a full recovery! Thanks Sandy!!! read more

Dr Jess and her arsenal of therapies/techniques (e.g., ART, Graston, cupping, taping, and traditional chiropractic) have been integral in keeping my aging body going! She always takes the time to listen and assess, regardless of the issue, new or old and customizes appropriate treatments for whatever ails me that day. I am also frequently sent home with exercises/stretches to work on in between appointments to address the underlying causes. It takes a village to be active when older and I am forever grateful for providers like Dr Jess to help make it happen! read more

Dr. Johanna Lelke was able to pinpoint the exact place where I was injured in my ankle (my prior chiropractor couldn't identify the right spot), and with super strong fingers, I could feel the healing occur as I was going home from my first session. Dr. Lelke is understanding, very professional, and always sensitive to my pain levels, she is a fantastic practitioner, highly recommended for active folks who want to be in top shape for their sport or activity. I am a firm believer that ART is an effective treatment for muscle and ligament strains for me. Just remember during the ART session: Breathe, because it's a good pain! read more

Within 2 minutes Dr. Jess knew what was wrong with my knee! I have no idea why I waited over a year to get this looked at, but I am back on the road to recovery now. I had a couple of questions regarding the exercises and I emailed them to her. She replied quickly and I really appreciate that level of service. I've gone to PT in the past and was given a sheet of paper with the exercises to do. At Innersport they email you a link with videos with the specific exercises you need to do, which is really neat! read more

I highly recommend this chiropractic office! Background: I have been treated by various chiropractors using various techniques on and off throughout my whole life. Most recently I have been struggling with knee and chronic hip pains which have prevented me from reaching some specific fitness goals. Prior to receiving treatment from Innersport Chiropractic, I had been receiving treatment from a sports-medicine and physical therapy center that I was referred to through my HMO. I did not feel well understood or related to by my PT; and while I am not able to make any medical evaluation of my treatment, I experienced almost zero improvement over a period of several months. Innersport Chiropractic: My chiropractic practitioner is Dr. Johanna Lelke. She is friendly, professional and seems to take the fitness, health and well being of her patients very seriously. Dr. Lelke's use of ART and the Graston Technique [please see their website: www.innersport.com] and her strength building and stretching exercise recommendations have already dramatically impacted my physical ability. I have experienced a serious reduction in my negative symptoms. I understand the clinic offers personal training and deep massage services in addition to the physical therapy and chiropractic services offered. I cannot express how grateful I am already for the treatment I have received from Innersport Chiropractic and Dr. J. Lelke! [END] read more

What a great chiropractic practice. I've been to several chiropractors in the past fifteen years, and must say, Jess is the best. She isn't just a crack and run kind of gal... you know those chiropractors who spend like 15 minutes with you and just crack your back all over the place, and then 30 minutes later you feel the same as when you got there? Jess does a lot of different types of chiropractic therapy and also teaches lots of great exercises... she's like part physical therapist, part chiropractor. She's got a sports medicine philosophy which is so great because her primary interest is in getting you back out doing the activities you love. And she has a really sweet dog who comes to work with her. And her office is filled with other great people- an amazing physical therapist, a sports massage person and another chiropractor. They rock. read more

Dr. Johanna Lelke is wonderful! I have seen many chiropractors in my past and I felt like the thoroughness of my first "diagnostic" session was unlike anything that I have experienced. I now feel like I actually know why my back has been hurting me for the past 10 years, and I know what to do about it. Not that I don't like adjustments, but I greatly appreciated how she took the time to show me strengthening exercises and stretches so that I won't have to get adjustments as frequently. For me, this type of treatment really separates those chiropractors who are out to make $$$ from those who are genuinely concerned about their patients healing process. After my visit with Dr. Lelke, I feel empowered to make some changes in my daily habits that will affect my back, as well as my general health. As a side note, as an athlete, I believe that it is really important that my doctors are either athletic themselves or have a solid understanding of the effects of different sports on the body. Dr. Lelke clearly has done many sports in her past, as well as currently, and I think that really made her recommendations and her treatment very effective. read more

About a year ago I was suffering from IT band pain and knee pain. My condition was threatening my triathlon season. I got Dr Jess' name from a massage therapist and got in for an appointment. The first appintment is pricy, but it's pricy for a reason. It's designed to assess you overall health and condition to determine a treatment plan. I learned more about myself, and my weaknesses, than I could ever imagine. Second and subsequent appointments are also a bit high (for us self-pays) and the sessions seem to be short. But, the treatment you get during that time is top notch. Remember, you won't walk out of your first appointment cured. It may take 2, 3, 4 or more to see and feel results. In some cases you might not be cured but your symptoms will be managed well. Dr Jess treated me via 3 disciplines: Normal chiropractic adjustment, Active Release Therapy and Graston Technique. Oh, and some Spider Tech taping to! This multi-facit approach reduced and even temporarily ceased my pain and discomfort and allowed me to complete my tri season, including 2 top ten, 2 top 5 and 1 podium finish. She recently referred me to a Sports MD in Walnut Creek for my chronic knee pain and he has been great. Dr. Jess is a great person. She is very nice and personable and listens to her patients. She has a passions for her patients ranging from top athletes to folks just trying to stay healthy. So, if your back, legs, knees, shoulders are bothering you...get in and see Jess. Be warned though! Beware "The Finster" the biggest puppy in the world that likes to wrestle and is a pick pocket. read more

While I was pregnant, my daughter kept head butting my ribs, thereby popping them out of place (as you can imagine, it was very uncomfortable to the point of me wearing one of my husband's belts to keep the ribs tight while I slept at night). I also had a baby shower where 12 people attending (myself included) got a wicked flu so every time I coughed, the ribs would hurt even more. I was also having back trouble which didn't help. In ONE visit, Dr Jess popped my ribs back into place, fixed my back and put my pelvis back into place (it was also off center and out of whack). The relief was instant. I'm telling you people, if you have some sort of problem you think a chiro might be able to help you with, do not hesitate, it's worth the trip. My daughter is now 3 and a half months old and totally worth every second of pain I'd endured! read more

I have used Innersport on two different occasions: once to work on my right hip several years ago, and recently to work on a left sole injury. Drs. Jess and Jeff have treated me effectively and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others. For instance, today I walked out in much less pain, and was given some roller exercises to do. My work as an audio engineer requires me to lift and carry packing cases which weigh up to 50lbs. While I can allow plenty of lead time at setup, the end of a show is a different story - everything needs to be packed and hauled away as quickly as possible. Those are usually the times when injuries occur. There is also a lot of driving in a stick-shift car to and fro. I am now in much better shape, as I am taking classes at Happy Hour Fitness. However, if Dr. Jess hadn't taught me the basics of using a foam roller those few years ago, I wouldn't have been able to tackle these exercise classes! I've signed up for a multi-appointment pass at Innersport Chiropractic, and plan to see Dr. Jeff regularly: maintenance and awareness are an important component of staying fit! read more

Simply amazing!!! I tweaked my neck and back holding my infant on a cross country flight and Dr Jess was able to fix the tightness and give me immediate pain relief. After three sessions of cupping, ART (active release therapy) and taping I was back to my strong active self! I love that her approach is very open to several techniques and she wants to fix things as quickly as possible and in as few sessions as possible. Instead of telling me she would need to see me for a set period of time, Dr Jess left it up to me to decide how often and when I need to come in, as her goal is to get you back to working out and your regular routine ASAP! She also does bike fittings (very important!) and run assessments (key in not getting injured!) for novices and weekend warrior endurance athletes. read more

I've been to a few chiropractors in my years and upon moving to Berkeley, I was looking for a new one in the area. I went through my insurance's website and found this place. When I went into be seen, I gave the list of the aches and pains I was having, one of which was a pain I was having in my lower back. The doctor told me it was one of a few things and wanted to get me on a regime to treat it. I agreed, but before my next appointment, I received a job offer and had to cancel my next appointment due to time constraints. Before I could reschedule the appointment, the pain started to become unbearable and I went to see my general practitioner about it. Turns out it was a kidney infection and the regiment with the chiropractor might have made it worse. 5 days of antibiotics later, all of the pain I was having disappeared. When I received the bill for the co-pay, I wrote on there that they have misdiagnosed me and it was a kidney infection (kinda passive-aggressively, but I was angry). At this point, I would have rated them a little higher, but it's what happens later that completely made me hate this place. MONTHS after the single appointment I had, I get a bill in the mail from them saying I owed them $150 because they didn't accept my insurance. The same insurance company I found them through. The same insurance company I asked if they accepted and they told me yes. I don't often write one-star reviews, but this place has by far been the worst chiropractor I have been to. read more

AVOID!!!! I went in for a knee problem and this chiropractor completely screwed up my back! If you go to her website all you will see is five star ratings, which is completely misleading... I would like to ask "Dr. Jess" how I could post a one star rating on her website, and go into full detail on how she screwed up my back. To her credit she did take responsibility for what she did. read more

I live in San Francisco, but because of Innersport's reputation, I made the trip to Berkeley to check it out. My knees have always bothered me and more recently, I've been experiencing a lot of tightness in my IT band and glutes. Dr. Johanna Lelke was just awesome. She assured me that my activity level did not have to suffer from my pain. She confidently assessed me and taught me much about my body and movement and gave me a range of treatments from massage to realigning my hips to an adjustment that completely released all of tension build-up in my back. After years of feeling like "I'll just have to learn to live with pain," Johanna proved I can still do the hiking and exploring I love. What was most impressive, however, is that Dr. Lelke set herself apart from all other chiropractors I've heard of. She truly understands the athlete's body and how to fix it. I LOVED my visit and felt like a completely new body afterwards. read more

Three weeks before last February's Austin Marathon, I strained my calf so badly I could barely walk, much less run. Through careful rehab, measured training, and multiple visits do Dr Jess, I was able to run my first outside of California Marathon. I couldn't have done it without her. Outstanding! read more

Back in March 2015, I had severe nerve pain running from my cervical spine down into my left arm. It was so unbearable I sought cervical surgery for what was diagnosed as herniated disks. I was told by three different neurosurgeons that I needed complete cervical fusion. I flew down to San Diego for a fourth opinion. This surgeon recommended Active Release Techniques (ART) instead of surgery. That therapy, and especially Dr. Jess, has given me a new lease on life. I am almost completely pain-free, have renewed mobility, and I'm off all my medications after just a little over a month. I owe you so much, Dr. Jess! This is truly a time when yelp needs 10 stars!! read more

Dr. Jess is the best I've visited. I've been to her on and off for years for knee and back pain mostly (related to cycling). Her memory, attention to detail, and desire to get you back to your best during every visit is not only impressive, but genuine. She is always aware of the latest effective techniques and is also able to fully explain their uses to me. You couldn't pay me to visit another physical therapist in her place. read more

I feel so blessed I found Dr. Jess. I am a 68 year old woman with osteoporosis and degenerative disc issues in my neck that have caused me problems. Although her training, skills and abilities are oriented towards sports, she agreed without hesitation to take me, an older woman with different needs, under her wings. I am pretty aware of my body and issues, and also very particular about practitioners. She tunes right in without my having to say a word. After a session with her, I feel like I am walking on air as I go to my car and her therapy seems to hold. Wow! She is the best! read more

Dr. Sandy Baird continues to provide me with much-needed relief from my frozen shoulder. From the very first visit, I could immediately feel an increased movement in areas that have been restricting and painful for many years. I continue to see Dr. Baird and feel fortunate to benefit from her professional expertise. read more

Let me start by saying... I tend to avoid doctors like the plague. As a life-long athlete, my experience with doctors has tended to be awful. Any injury and their solution is to stop the activity. Well, that doesn't work for me. Enter Dr. Jess. For me, her M.O. has been to find the problem, diagnose, treat and send me on my merry way, enabling me to continue my active lifestyle. Score! I can continue doing the activities I love, while treating the problem. If Dr. Jess is not available, I will not hesitate to book an appointment with Dr. Chan. He is just as awesome. So if you're sick of going to doctors whose solution to injuries consist of stopping all activity, I strongly suggest you see Dr. Jess or Dr. Chan and see what they can do for you. Innersport is also not just a Chiropractic office, they offer Sports Medicine services, which is actually what I predominately use them for. read more

Jessica is amazing. She cured my frozen shoulder in 3 weeks, which was several months quicker than she suggested and 9 months to a year quicker than my orthopedist suggested. read more

I have seen Jess over the last 5 years for a variety of back, ankle, and other ailments..... she is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and has hands of steel! Equally as important, she is honest and straightforward, always a straight shooter about your injury and path to recovery - it's clear that her goal is always to get you off the table and healed in the most efficient way possible. Thanks Jess! read more

Go see Deirdre! As a 2016 Olympic hopeful in Rowing, I have to say, she has been instrumental in my training recovery. She gives the same level of attention to each person and is invested in your success whether that be Rowing in the Olympics or simply getting rid of some minor ailment. She will help improve your quality of life, as she has mine. read more

Jess knows athletes and how to keep em going!! been using chiropractors since I was a child, and Jess is one of the best I've ever worked with. She has a multitude of backgrounds which can help change your problems for the better and provide maintenance exercises and body work. Attentive and ready to help you get better, not just suck your wallet. read more

WATCH OUT!!!! This place is VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! I was out of work from a back injury when I went to this business. I was charged $70 for just a consultation. I went back one time and was seen by Dr. Baird. I was only charged a co pay of $20 at the time of service which was in DECEMBER 2011. I wrote the Dr. when I decided to not go back, telling her to bill what my INSURANCE DID NOT COVER to my home. A YEAR later they sent me a $200 dollar bill for when I was seen. I thought this was covered by my insurance being I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THEM. When I called to tell them I thought this was taken care of by my insurance ~ being A YEAR HAD PASSED THE RECEPTIONIST TOLD ME: "I'M SORRY WE HAD SOMEONE WORKING HERE WHO COULD NOT DO THEIR JOB. I AM GOING THROUGH PAST ACCOUNTS AND CLEANING UP THEIR MESS." Why do I owe you for something that I thought was covered by my insurance?!!! Now over a YEAR LATER I DO NOT HAVE COVERAGE.....BACK THEN I COULD OF TALKED TO MY PROVIDER. How dare they tell me that they had someone who was incapable of doing their job...then charge me for THEIR MISTAKE OVER A YEAR LATER? The treatment I got also left me in more pain than I was in before I went in. BE CAUTIOUS OF THIS OVERPRICED, UNPROFESSIONAL BUSINESS. They should of never admitted to me that they dropped the ball on their end. read more

I would highly recommend Dr. Lelke! As an athletic herself, she was very sensitive and thorough during my first appointment. I had an injured ankle that prevented me from running but over the course of several sessions, Dr. Lelke provided me the tools to strenghten my ankle. I appreciated her showing me several exercises, stretches and how to tape my ankle on my own. It was worth the cost and made all the difference when Dr. Lelke thought I could start running again after several visits. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Aundi Mevoli for the last several months. I've seen probably 10 chiropractors over the last several years and I get a level of care from Aundi that I've never received or experienced before. She does this magical ART (Active Release Technique) that has resolved some persisting issues I've had. She doesn't just crack my bones and send me home, she works with me in different ways until the problem is addressed. If she doesn't have an immediate answer to something, like a diagnostic procedure I need to get, she researches it and calls me. She'll write referrals to other doctors for tests. She's truly interested in me getting better, and she's seeing to it. She spends whatever time she needs to, is flexible around scheduling, and is very sweet. It's the first time I've ever heard myself say, "I can hardly wait to get to the Doctor!" read more

Dr. Aundi has been fantastic for my body. She has helped me recover from a rupture Achilles tendon, foot, knee and hip problems and now shoulder problems. As you can see I really test her ability. Dr. Aundi has used combination of adjustments, taping, muscle work and exercises. You can tell she is always think about what is best for her patients she checks up with me between appointments and really wants to know what does or doesn't work. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to feel better and keep on moving. read more

Dr Jess is the greatest. I've gone to her with a number of different issues, from ankles to muscle pulls to back problems-- and she always figures out the root of the problem and is really great at treating it. The combo of ART and chiropractic services is great. Also, she's an athlete and so definitely understands the desire to get back to the game after an injury, and so will work with you to heal and return as soon as possible. read more

Dr. Lelke is wonderful! I had never been to a chiropractor before my visit, so I was a bit nervous. But after my visit, my back felt infinitely better and my posture improved dramatically. Dr. Lelke is wonderful to work with, and she makes sure that the treatment and her methods meet your needs and preferences. Also, Dr. Lelke used a massage technique called A.R.T. (active release technique) on me, which was amazing, and seemed to be more effective than other massages I've received in the past. I highly recommend Dr. Lelke! read more
