There…read moreare good ones out there, but unfortunately I've been to a few that see me for 10 minutes (a routine adjustment without any true analysis of what's going on with me), then I'm out. Dr. Lucy Osgood is NOT one of the latter! I started seeing Dr. Osgood 2-3 times per week after a fall I had in early October 2012. Her level of knowledge and care for me as her patient is second to none. She spends a very long time with me each time I see her to relieve the soreness in my muscles (especially my upper right shoulder) and to re-allign my skeleton. She continually gives me tips (and gentle nudging) about what I can do at home to make my health better. If she didn't care about me and how I progress, she would continually do monitor and help me. I like her so well, that I referred my husband and two of my friends to her. My husband has had problems with his lower back for years. With a simple wedge Dr. Osgood had him wear in his shoes, he has had no back pain since! A simple $5.00 piece of plastic in his shoe did the trick when he's been recommended surgery by other doctors. Imagine that! Dr. Osgood has been remarkable in all of my dealings and appointments with her office. Courtney in the front office is also a pleasure with whom to work. Sometimes my work schedule gets hectic, and Courtney is always friendly and accommodates me. I sincerely appreciate Courtney as well. I emphatically recommend Chiropractic Performance Center!

Constant pain, difficulty walking, sitting, driving, it was starting to impact my mental health. Saw a physical therapist with no significant relief. Then a friend referred me to Elite. I've seen Dr. Lim three times and Dr. Ho once so far. + Flexible scheduling. They were able to get me in within a day. Don't be fooled by this availability -- they ARE really good. + They give you an exam AND initial treatment in the same day, both critical but I love that they give you some relief from Day 1. + Evaluation was super thorough. Lots of questions, watched me do daily activities, had me do some basic exercises with variations. + Treatment is painful. But EFFECTIVE. I walked out of that first treatment _absolutely_ pain-free -- literally felt like I was walking on clouds. This was the turning point in my pain -- after that treatment, it quickly and steadily got better. + Their attitude is not to keep you there for months -- they want to get you relief as quickly as possible, and they let you know this. + They spend time not just on treatment but on personalized exercises to increase strength and flexibility. At that first treatment, Dr. Lim taught me how to protect my core any time I'm transitioning positions, and I do that dozens of times each day and can feel the difference. Note: LOTS of professionals have tried to teach me how to protect my core - Dr. Lim is the first one to really demonstrate to me how to do it! + Competitive rates. They were more effective than the PT places I had been and more competitive rate-wise. + Plenty of parking in the lot. This place may not look like much from the outside (pretty standard strip mall), but what they do inside is amazing.

I have had sciatica since 2015 and even had to have lower back surgery (a microdiscectomy and…read morelaminectomy) to help with the pain in 2017. My back felt good up until 2 years ago when I injured it moving a patient (I'm a nurse). My boyfriend has been seeing Dr. Pete for about 20 years now, he goes in for an adjustment about once every 6 months or so. For a whole year, my boyfriend kept telling me to go see Dr. Pete because he's amazing and will help with my back pain, but I was very skeptical. I had never been to a chiropractor before, especially a NUCCA chiropractor, and didn't have much faith in the practice. I tried icing my back, using a tens machine, going to physical therapy, and even acupuncture, but nothing really helped. So after a year, I finally agreed to go to Dr. Pete because nothing had helped and I was taking too much medication to help manage my pain and I was also scared of having to need surgery again. Well, BOY WAS I WRONG. After a couple of sessions, my back pain was completely gone and I felt amazing. I'm kicking myself for being so stubborn and suffering for a year and not going to see Dr. Pete sooner. First of all, Dr. Pete is amazing as soon as you walk into his door. He is very friendly and an absolutely brilliant chiropractor. He really cares about helping you be pain free and gives you advice on how to keep yourself in alignment longer. He's very knowledgeable about spinal care and he makes sure to explain everything he's doing, which definitely put me at ease in the beginning. His hands are literally magic, I'm so thankful how much he has helped me with my back pain. If you're suffering from any kind of neck, shoulder, back, knee, or foot pain. PLEASE GO SEE HIM. Do not be stubborn like I was, and let yourself suffer with pain. He can and will help with your pain. I've been telling all my friends, family and coworkers about him because he has worked wonders for me. Thank you so much Dr. Pete! Go see him, you won't regret it!

I have been seeing Dr. Pete for quite a few years. When I started I had a severe injury, a pinched…read morenerve in or around my neck, with neck stiffness, shoulder pain, and tingling in my fingers. Months of conventional chiropractic, yoga, and physical therapy (more yoga) had failed to relieve the condition, until I decided to try Dr. Pete's Advanced Spinal Care and specialized treatment of NUCCA chiropractic. In several sessions over 2 weeks with Dr. Pete, my body's healing was jumpstarted: The tingling in my fingers ceased, and in the ensuing weeks I had a gradual improvement and finally total relief after a year of suffering. I appreciate and trust Dr. Pete on issues of health and well-being, his knowledge on natural healing and nutrition, his attention to detail, his honesty and professionalism. He is a wonderful human being, and healthcare, whether conventional or alternative, needs more individuals like him. I love the theory behind his practice of upper cervical chiropractic, that the gentle adjustment around one vertebra, the Atlas, readjusts the entire body so that it can work toward an optimum level of health and well being. It's so gentle, that I can even bring in my 90+.year old mom for treatment, which would not even be an option with conventional chiropractic. Highly recommended!

This painful experience happened in 08-29-15, but as they say, better late than never…read more I was referred to Dr Wood by Natalie Miner, the acupuncturist (next door). Natalie had diagnosed my costochondritis as "rib dislocation" without any x-rays or any other proof. During the first visit I gave her a disc of my thorax but she couldn't open it on her computer. Then she proceeded to treat me according to Natalie's (wrong) diagnosis. She did all the twists and turns most of the chiropractors are practicing. By the second visit she aggressively focused the entire time on my left rib cage where the pain was, and started pounding my middle ribs with some small hammer, very close to my heart. According to her explanation, she used an Activator to "adjust" my ribs. Ignoring that my heart was under. She irritated my nerves in that area and I couldn't sleep that night on the left side. The next day the pain turned to fear and the fear turned to anxiety and the anxiety turned to high blood pressure. By the evening my BP was 198/101. On 08-31-15, I went to the ER (Good Samaritan) for hypertension and light headedness and they hooked me up with IVs to calm down and I got stuck with Metoprolol (two pills a day) till I would see my Primary Doctor the next week. On 10-08-15, I was diagnosed with Atrial Flutter and the next day Dr Hirschfeld gave me a cardio-version and for the rest of my life I started taking blood pressure pills, plus I had to go for another heart ablation the next year. All of these, because of her "careful" treatment. By now she must be 72, but at least she retired, one year ago, so no one else can be damaged in the future, by her. P. S. I noticed that on 05-27-14, Dr Wood recruited her friends and they flooded her with five star reviews and of course one of them was from Natalie Miner, describing her "the chiropractor with a very gentle touch". If I knew then what I know now.......only if.

I met with Dr. Wood after stress and an injury challenged me to pursue a path of conscious health choices. The meeting was a gift I shall always treasure. Not only is Dr. Wood very committed to her work, she invests her entire life in becoming knowledgeable and skilled in many world practices that empower her to empower you. This is not your typical bone crunching chiropractor. If you need and desire such practices, she is more than capable, however she brings to each session much more than that, and if you need a gentle touch to guide your body back into healthful alignment, rest assured she's absolutely brilliant at doing so. In the course of my long residency in the Palo Alto area I've experienced other chiropractic work, but their names have long escaped me because their work was kindergarten compared with this Master.
