Well, Yelp! wins again. Dr. Steven is amazing. If you second guess why he's at the top of the…read moreBest Of lists, well then you owe it to yourself (and your spine) to give him a ring. I called and left a message about hoping to get in quickly for a consult and an adjustment due to some back strain from moving/biking/life. However, being in meetings on a Monday and Tuesday meant little time to actually try to schedule something - can't be stepping out to make calls constantly. Dr. Steven was able to work with my schedule over text, and within a matter of minutes, I had an appointment that fit my schedule, and he gave me some (very reasonable) cost for services. I wasn't in the quaint waiting room before Dr. Steven came in to get me. On time. His demeanor was very casual and welcoming, which I love. I had a chiropractor once whose mannerisms were so erratic, I would always get nervous he was going to snap something or trip over his own feet (he was good, though, but man, just made me nervous). We went to his office, and he sat down and listened to me. Just sitting down and conversing with me meant a lot - no jittery movements, no multitasking, no BS. He took a great history and did some test movements to make sure he wouldn't injure anything before doing an adjustment. His adjustments lasted a fair bit longer than I have had in the past, as I usually get a quick crack or two then shoved onto a traction machine or some other contraption. Not Dr. Steven. Using only his handiwork and one handheld tool, he manipulated, massaged, stretched, moved, and then adjusted me. He educated me on some of my body's natural mobility, and the rationales for why I might be feeling some of my pains. After our appointment, he gave me some GREAT tips on how to improve my pain and spine health at home, and offered me to just message him and set up another appointment. In today's hectic world, finding someone who is accommodating, flexible, and skillful is a daunting task. Add on Dr. Steven's excellent demeanor, knowledge, and fair pricing - and you've got yourself a fantastic doctor. Thanks again, Dr. Steven - I will be back!

I'm fortunate enough to never have had musculoskeletal trauma, but I've spent years hunched over a computer and using smartphones. Obviously, my posture and alignment got out of whack. What a difference chiropracty has made! For the first several months, he saw me twice a week. After a while, we went to once a week, then less often. I moved out of Asheville five years ago, but he'll see me every time I visit! Since I was here two years ago, they've given up the location on Church St. and now operate a mobile clinic and accept appointments at their new "permanent" location, but they can also travel to you. Gardens of Health no longer accepts insurance, but their rates are quite reasonable.

I am currently in the second week, working with GHC everyday and I can feel such a difference already. Dr. Landon is very knowledgeable and professional, while still being very friendly and comforting. His office has a traction table, he makes adjustments with an activator, with a drop table, and manually, and he also has an inversion table (which I am a HUGE fan of!). I was very leery of going to the chiropractor 1.) The last one I went to had a weird vibe that could be interpreted as unprofessional and 2.) I'm a massage therapist, therefore a huge advocate of massage, and I had little chiropractic knowledge. My visits with Gardens of Health have been so very informative, and he told me exactly what he was doing and why as we went along, which helped me to relax. I'm so happy I gave it a chance! I love everything about Gardens of Health, including their salt soaks and plant based body butter that they make in house! If you're new to chiro or are looking for a friendly, professional atmosphere that leaves you feeling refreshed, you definitely have to come check it out! Tell them Lolli sent you! ;)

I have been going to Dr. Ken ever since we moved to Asheville 13 years ago. He is always warm and cheerful and, most importantly, he sets me straight (spinewise). He always has given me good advice and, now that I am in my mid-70s, I've taken his advice to come in for monthly tune-ups. I've also had successful laser treatment for soft tissue issues at Lawson Chiropractic. His office staff mirrors his own positive tone and they keep things rollling along smoothly. His professional colleagues are equally as kind and effective (when he's been away, I've had treatment from them). One important point for us seniors, Lawson Chiropractic takes Medicare, which not all chiropractors do. In short, I highly recommend Lawson Chiropractic. read more

I have seen the Sara and Kenton for five months for a sciatica issue in my lower back and leg. Sara quickly identified two root causes of the underlying drivers of pain: (1) one leg over two inches shorter the other leg (unknown for fifty years +) and (2) a collaped arch in one foot. She recommended spinal adjustment, stretching exercises, and orthotic shoe inserts along with heat treatments as corrective action. Sara's adice has been followed. I have been able to experience a fifty percent reduction in pain. Great support staff, simple billing process, and consistent on-time appointments! The Lawson team cares and it shows time in and out!

I have been going to Lawson on a maintenance basis for years. There is little comparison in my quality of life before and after seeing Dr. Kent. I used to have chronic pain (6 to 8 out of 10). I work at a computer all day and am a distance learner (i.e. internet student) by night. When I'm not at my computer I split wood, lift weights, run, and like working on my vehicles. In spite of my own continued abuse to my back, chronic pain is now a thing of the past. I still feel 10 years younger than when I started going. All of the staff are extremely pleasant, and you can count on speedy and professional service. read more

I've been going to a chiropractor for my back since pregnancy. Years later, I still needed chiropractic care and tried Lawson Chiropractic. I was satisfied and had been going there for many years. Then my son started going to them too. My husband who had been skeptical for many years started seeing them too.

I've been going to Lawson Chiropractic for about a year now. I can't say enough about the staff, the efficiency of the business, and of course the chiropractors. I went specifically for a knee issue I had been dealing with for a couple of years. After some laser therapy and regular adjustments, my knee issue is virtually nonexistent.

I came in at 10 for Physical Therapy. It ends at 11. And usually I'm seen by Chiropractor within 10 to 15 minutes. At 11:20 I went to the front desk and one of the ladies made a face concerned that I haven't been seen yet. She said she will look into it. At 11:30 I walked up to the front desk and said I'm leaving. This is the second time it happened. If it was the first time I would've written it off. I did not write a review after the first time the physical therapist was not told I was there for a treatment. One of the staff went into James's office and said I was waiting to see him. Yes they gave me a last-minute appointment that morning. I don't know if his schedule was updated or what happened, but he had no idea that I was there and had an appointment with him that morning. This isn't a large office. Luckily the first time, one of the staff noticed me sitting there and alerted James. He said he would look into this and it wouldn't happen again. Well today, I waited 30 minutes. I watched people who came in after me get treated by the chiropractors. At 11:30 when I left someone at the front desk was said: 'she's next.' I should have been next at 11:15 or even 11:20.... and again, I'm gonna say this it is a small office. The front desk could've seen me sitting there. The front desk could've seen that my paperwork hadn't moved forward. The Chiropractor's could easily see me. There are three chiropractors on site. I really don't understand why I was ignored for 30 minutes. So if you have an appointment and you feel like you're waiting too long and you see other people who came in after you being treated before you, you've been forgotten just like I have been. Twice.
