Highly recommend so professional and great environment The staff is really really nice. They do x-rays and then follow up and a great package plan. read more

I've been seeing Dr Vince for about two years now and have to say my quality of life has increased exponentially due to her care. Along with Dr Altan, my sciatica is under control and I'm able to go about life confidently knowing they have my back ;) Thanks Montecito Chiropractic! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Vince for many years now, and she has made such a positive impact on my health! At first, I was hesitant about chiropractic care, but a recommendation led me to give it a try, and I'm so thankful I did. Over time, she has really helped me, and I'm now a firm believer in the benefits of chiropractic treatment. In the last two months, I've also seen Dr. Altan, whose adjustment on me healed a shooting pain I was experiencing from my hand up my arm. He also has helped relieve pain in my foot and knee on the left side of my body. He's gentle and reassuring, and I've learned just how crucial it is to maintain proper alignment. I'm so grateful to have both of these amazing chiropractors helping me, and I can't recommend them enough! read more

It may sound strange, since I have not yet actually been to Montecito Chiropractic, but I want to leave a pre-emptive review. This is about amazing customer service from Sara. I was really suffering from crippling vertigo and was looking at treatments. I called and spoke to Sara who gave me a great feeling of confidence that they would be able to assist, as they had many patients who suffered the same. I had booked an appointment with Urgent Care to rule out any obvious causes, but told her I would be back in touch the following week, after the appointment. To my surprise and delight, Sara checked in with me the next week, wondering how I was and if I needed an appointment. Luckily, I had done a deep dive into the causes of BPPV and different maneuvers (Epley, especially) on YouTube and had the vertigo under control from home I have every intention of becoming a client due to the professionalism, kindness and prompt communication I have experienced with Sara. She is a great ambassador for Montecito Chiropractic Center! read more

This office came highly recommended by some of my neighbors but I was shocked at the lack of transparency with pricing. I called to make an appointment and when I asked about how much the X-rays, exam, and adjustments would cost, the receptionist told me the doctor would talk to me about that during the initial consultation which is free. I pushed a bit and asked one more time and got the same answer. I felt it was fishy but decided to go anyway. No wonder they don't tell you over the phone! The X-rays alone we're going to cost me $350! I explained that I am a fully self supporting student and the doctor was quick to give me a discount, which I appreciated, but it was still far too expensive for me. I just wish they would've made their pricing clear before I wasted their and my time by going for an exam. They also recorded the audio of my consultation where they asked me a bunch of questions about my health and treatment history. I appreciate how thorough they were, but I have no idea why an audio recording would be necessary as the doctor took written notes. It made me uncomfortable. read more

I am prone to back injuries due to some scoliosis. A year ago I woke up one day in excruciating pain in my neck & shoulder and I knew I needed to see a chiropractor for some relief. I called Montecito Chiropractic Center and they were able to get me in right away. Dr. Vince and her staff were able to quickly identify the root of my pain. After the first adjustment, I was already able to get some relief and with the attentive care and consistent adjustments, I was back up and around in a matter of weeks. The personalized care I received helped me get to a place where now 1 year later I am stronger than ever. I continue to go for regular adjustments proactively to avoid injury. Dr. Vince and the team at Montecito Chiropractic Center changed my life and I am so grateful to have found them. read more

Montecito Chiropractic is absolutely fantastic. I'm in my 20's and have experience back pain for years. Dr. Vince is beyond amazing and welcomes everyone with gracious joy and warm kindness. Not only does she educate you on what personal problems we are experiencing, but also educates her clients on chiropractic care as a whole and different ways to help strengthen the body. Through my care with Dr. Vince for the past 2 months I've seen significant changes from less back pain, better sleep, but mainly, no more allergies. I had horrible Spring Allergies with pollen, and after Dr. Vince recommended Chlorella, I haven't had to use a prescription medication for allergies since. Dr. Vince and her staff are positive, welcoming, and extremely flexible. They communicate through multiple avenues to relay information or to help book appointments. I'm so happy I started seeing Dr. Vince and feel like I'm living the healthy life I'm suppose to be living! read more

My experience was as professional as it gets, they took care of my needs and explained everything they where going to preform and why. What I really liked was that they took X-rays before preforming the work so the knew exactly what needed to be addressed. I've all ways believe if you don't test it's a guess and there not guessing with you health over here. Much appreciate for the work they have preformed on adjusting my spine and atlas. read more

Amazing! You won't be disappointed. I have been going to Montecito Chiropractic for about 5 months now and just came across their first review. It seems as though that person did not really want to get better. Yeah sure, for some it can be a bit uncomfortable at first, but if your body is out of alignment for a long time, it's going to take a while to get realigned and allow the healing process to begin. MCC is not a regular chiropractic office, in that 1 adjustment will make feel better. It is a life changing practice that can take time and if you go in for 1 adjustment you are just doing yourself an injustice. I find it hard to believe that their experience with Dr. Egan was a bad one. I have been adjusted by her since she started and she is a very competent doctor. She communicates very well and has helped me through any back pain I have had in the past. I have been to a few chiropractors in my time, and the staff at MCC is one of the best I have come across. I feel better than I have in years and I owe it all to Dr. Egan and Montecito Chiropractic. I know this sounds like a phony testimonial, but I truly believe that this place has changed my life. Give them a chance, just don't go in for a single adjustment, for it defeats the purpose of the practice. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Vince since the early days of COVID-19 shelter in place when my back locked up from sitting in front of my computer for zoom meetings 12 hours a day. She and her staff conducted a thorough exam and imaging to determine how to address my issues. She is compassionate, kind, and very expert in improving my spinal motion and overall body function. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking gentle yet strong care for back, shoulder, hip, foot problems! read more

I thought Dr. Monica Egan was professional and very friendly during my evaluation, however I will not be returning because of my experience with the reception desk. They had the sales approach of a used car salesmen when they were trying to sign me up with future sessions. When I clearly explained my plan was to purchase the large bulk of sessions at the end of the month when I could receive a small discount, they were very pushy to me to purchase a one time session that day, and then to pay $200 upfront which I had already had explained I was not going to do. They did not want to take no for an answer, and it was unprofessional to be that aggressive. For a place that promotes health and wellness, this behavior was unsettling, because when you set up chiropractic sessions, it's important to be consistent with visits. The reception desk did not have my health or best interest at heart, so I will be seeking help from another chiropractic care provider. read more

I went to Montecito Chiropractic for an old neck & back injury that had been feeling a little tight. I've been to Chiropractors before & have always left their offices feeling better. This situation, unfortunately was nothing like any past experience I've had. I wish I didn't have to give a star... I saw Dr. Monica Egan, a 20 something, extremely inexperienced "Dr." A basic consultation took over 3 hours & x-rays alone (3 x-rays), took about 45 minutes, because she forgot to put the film in every time. She uses, "um," & "like," & "uh" so often that I was finishing her sentences. I should've listened to my instincts, but since I've had only good Chiropractic experiences with other offices, I decided to come back for my adjustment. Their office is like a patient conveyer belt, no private adjusting rooms & there are about 6 tables next to each other on the other side of the reception desk. You actually go from sitting in the lobby to walking 10 feet to a table in the same noisy open room. You also have to put your face protector down & lay there for the Dr & wait. My first adjustment consisted of Dr. Egan asking me to go to the Drop Table at the end of the row of tables. After touching my spine for less than 30 seconds she let the head rest out from under me without any warning. Then I was told to sit in a chair & close my eyes for 20 minutes so my Atlas could settle into the adjustment... When I left the office I realized that she injured me after a couple of hours. I had an extremely bad headache & a stiff, tight, painful back, neck & gluts. It's been almost 2 weeks & I'm still in pain. Now I have to see an Orthopedist & Dr. Egan's response has been, "I probably shouldn't have put you on that table." This office is very unprofessional & I hope no one else has to go through this. The last thing anyone wants is an overly aggressive Dr, that doesn't listen to their patient. read more

UPPER CERVICAL SPECIALIST When I first came in to see Dr. Monica Egan my neck was in bad shape. My range of motion was limited and I was in chronic pain. I had been in a Motor Vehicle Accident and was suffering from a pretty bad case of whiplash, and I was periodically experiencing a frozen and extremely painful neck. I have been in Dr. Egan's healing hands for the past year and I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have found a chiropractor who not only knows how to adjust my spine, she actually helps my body to heal. Her adjustments are always gentle, and so my body does not fight the corrections. She helps my neck to relax and gently brings it back to alignment. Hallelujah! Her specialty is in working with the atlas, and upper cervical spine. In the past year I have learned how to sense when my atlas is out of alignment (sometimes from sleeping on it wrong, or driving, or from just plain too much stress...). I am extremely grateful for the care that I receive at Montecito Chiropractic. Dr. Egan is the one I most often see, but if she is out of town, or if our schedules don't match up that week, I know I am in great hands seeing Dr. Vince that week as well. read more

My family has been coming to see Dr. Elena Vince for about 5 years and we have been more than pleased with her help. My husband's back was in pain and after coming here for his adjustments he has been doing great! She takes her time to talk to us and is super friendly! read more

Great prices, great chiro, esp. for upper cervical care which is very hard to find. Upper cervial care changed my life. Used to get head aches regularly and starting losing loss of motion in my left shoulder. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Vince for over a decade now. When I first started, I could barely move. She has been helping keep me healthy and in alignment, pain free, ever since. I highly recommend this practice. Dr. Vince and Dr. Francis are exceptional people and masterful chiropractors! read more

Past chiropractors I have been to have adjusted me for temporary pain relief and short-term realignment, but for years I kept searching for a chiropractor who could put me on a true path of healing. I have finally found that in Dr. Elena Vince. My goal was to be healthier and stronger than before- NOT just maintain the status quo. When I came to Dr. Vince an old neck injury kept re-occurring with more and more frequency and my lower back was so chronic that I actually stopped citing it as an issue because I had simply adapted to just living with it. Dr. Vince did a nerve scan, performed a skeletal evaluation, took x-rays and recorded a complete health history on our first visit. This is when it became clear to me that she would be treating me as a whole person -rather than treating just symptoms, which is so prevalent in Western medicine. From there I was put on a specific treatment plan to better my health. She also educated me on how the spine contains the nervous system and how each area of the spine corresponds to particular areas of the body. When your spine is misaligned there will be less energy and nutrients going to certain internal organs- which made complete sense since I've had a chronically bad lower back for years along with two major abdominal surgeries. I finally realized they are connected! Today I am strong and healthy and am no longer in fear that I'm about to throw my neck out if I make a wrong move or sleep without my neck pillow. An added benefit is that my libido has shot through the roof- which makes sense since my lower back was compromised for years, now that it is regularly in alignment, that area of my body is now receiving the nutrients and energy it has been craving. So now I need to go find a boyfriend. I will be sure to have him send Dr. Vince a thank you note when he surfaces... I give Dr. Vince my highest recommendation and am thrilled to have found her. She has truly enhanced the quality of my life and my health and I am very grateful. read more

I have learned so much from Dr. Vince about how to stay healthy and how our nervous system is there to keep our immune system strong! I feel lucky to have my young adult kids in her care as well for prevention and a healthy future. Thanks to ALL the staff there for everything! read more

I have been fortunate enough to be in Elena's care for many years and cannot say enough about her consistent ability to alleviate my pain & return me to health whenever I go out of adjustment; and I have seen the benefit of being in regular maintenance and having my body return easier to alignment and stay healthy as opposed to occasional treatment after an incident. She is very good and has an excellent rapport with her patients & is a patient & tireless educator. Thank you Elena for all you do !! Carl read more

Bye Bye Allergy Meds Dr. Monica Egan is the first chiropractor I have ever been to. I never believed in chiropractic, but she told me that being adjusted correctly would take away my allergies and make me sleep better. It's been over a year and I am still sleeping great and haven't taken an allergy pill since. This place is great! read more

ANTI-VACCINE chiropractor!!! BEWARE! Dr. Vince makes all new patients sit through a "health talk" in which she tells us that vaccines are dangerous and that she did not vaccinate her children. So let's hope this is not a place to catch a disease. She can adjust well but very dangerous in her "health talk." read more

Seriously, I've had much better care/results here than any of my MD's where I pay quite a bit in monthly medical expenses for services I only use 1-2 times a year! In additional to feeling like permanent improvements are happening, I feel like my "whole self" is being cared for by not just Dr. Vince but her staff, too. Along with chiropractic care, they are genuinely there to offer help with nutrition, exercise ideas and simple lifestyle adjustment ideas. They have fun little office things that keep me cheery, even when I'm not feeling my best. Flavored water, cider during the holidays and ever changing motivational encouragement on white boards! read more

Dr. Vince is truly amazing. The extra training she received for upper cervical care has made a huge difference in my life. Five months ago i started coming here. She immediately started to fix the pain, posture and range of motion problems physical therapy and my old chiropractor had been unable to resolve. Now, I am back to cycling classes and TRX 3-4 times a week. Two weeks ago I was even able to go mountain biking for the first time in almost a year. Thank you Dr. Vince! read more

This is the best place ever for chiropractic adjustments and healing wellness! Dr Elena Vince and her team are so full of positive and healing energy as soon as you walk through the door. Dr. Vince's adjustments are gentle and healing and she gives me great advice on how to improve my wellbeing. I'd give her 10 stars here if I could! read more

Hi, today I met Dr. Monica Egan. Wow! Great! She is so beautiful and kind, esp. warm heart for a patient. Today, it was my first visit to exam my condition, esp. cervical problem with Groupon. She offered great service with X-rays and other exams evan I paid a small amount of Groupon. She did her best for me. I will met her next week to review X-rays. I really expect her diagnosis and treatment. Thanks Monica today. God bless you. Chiho read more

Dr. Monica Egan is amazing. She has gentle hands. Very professional, explains everything as she goes. I have been to at least 10 different chiropractors over the years and I would say she is one of the best. Before working on me she took extensive x-rays, and other testing methods to see how my neck and spine were doing and then proceeded causiously as I had been in a car accident and still had a lot of difficulties do to the accident. read more

About 10 years ago I was referred here by a friend. Dr. Vince has helped me more than any other chiropractor I have seen over the last 35 years (there have been quite a few). Here work with my atlas has made such a difference for me. I've brought my children and husband for adjustments and referred some friends too! read more

Wishing I could give 6 STARS!! Dr. Vince and Katie are such an amazing team!!! This being my first experience with chiropractics I didn't know what to expect or if I would even understand what was going on with own body. Dr. Vince is so warm and welcoming, she instantly made me feel so comfortable and explained IN DETAIL each and every part of the process. She really takes her time with EVERY patient that walks through the door, never making you feel like you are just another "client". You feel like you are part of a family from the moment you walk in. The office is extremely clean, and nicely spread out, never feeling like you are on top of one another. Her "resting room" is straight out of a spa! I could spend hours in their. =) I would never trust anyone but Dr. Vince and her team with my health and wellbeing again, only 2 sessions in and am ALREADY FEELING BETTER! Regardless of the severity of you injury she will have the answer, do yourself and your body a favor and book with her ASAP!!! read more

I've had severe scoliosis for most of my life, and as a result my body has been very crooked and uneven, and my neck listed at an odd angle. I've only been seeing Dr. Vince for about two or three months now, and already there is a marked difference. My shoulders are almost even and my neck almost upright. It's like magic - I'm thrilled and my doctor is impressed. I can't wait to finish the course. This is wonderful, wonderful work, and I highly recommend it to everyone - people suffering from ordinary, everyday pain in the neck and shoulders, and those like me with special needs. read more

A great approach to health and wellness. Everyone is very friendly and Dr Vince is excellent!

Dr. Vince is fantastic. I commute long hours in the car day after day, and seeing her for an adjustment each week is what saves me. I definitely recommend Montecito Chiropractic! read more

I've been going to Dr. Elena for more than 10 years. She's great for long and short term health issues. She is gentle and responsive, and does a great job helping me care for my body. My body feels great and I am able to bike and run as I approach 60. And because she is also concerned with overall health, I don't get sick as often. I highly, highly recommend her. read more

Montecito Chiropractic Center offers excellent chiropractic care and a respectful, kind, and professional staff. I have never felt better. Past chiropractors I have tried do not even measure up to the kind of care, attention to detail, and true professional integrity that Dr. Vince and her staff have to offer. I was referred to Montecito Chiropractic Center and Dr. Vince in particular by a few other family members who also are patients of Dr. Vince, and I have never been happier! I definitely made an excellent and well thought-out decision to move over to Dr. Vince. She and her staff are the best and I have never felt better. -MP, RN read more

I have been the biggest skeptic when it comes to chiropractic, but a few months ago I could hardly walk / stand so I decided it was time to give it a try. I have now been seeing Dr. Egan for about 3 months & the amount of pain that has subsided in my back is unbelievable. I am so glad I have started this journey with her. She seems to genuinely care about me and my health. Not to mention everyone in the office is always friendly. Another thing I love about thus place is they are doing a food drive in exchange for FREE care. I have never heard if any kind of Dr doing anything like this! read more

I started getting adjusted here in October, the doctors are amazing at what they do as well as amazing people. They are very accommodating and genuinely care about your well being. I have been adjusted by both Dr.Vince and Dr.Egan, they both relieve my aches and pains equally. I can be having really bad stomach pains or striking headaches; I go in to get adjusted and they know exactly where to pin point their adjustment. I am so glad that I found them and would never wish to go anywhere else. read more

I really wanted to write a good review, because I like Dr. Vince. She's cheery, upbeat and positive. I know she's intelligent, but the level of chiropractic care I've received over the past 6 months has been subpar. I kept giving it more chances because she's positive and while I did experience some level of relief, the results were minimal compared to the new chiropractor I'm seeing now (Dr. Orcutt). Her adjustments are too similar for all patients (she does an open-adjustment room, so I see others getting adjusted) and she never adjusted my ankels and wrists or legs even when it really would have helped. My new chiropractor adjusted me in more locations than just the neck and back, and I felt better after one adjustment with him than I have from 6 months of treatment with Dr. Vince! Also, Montecito Chiropractic wasn't covered by my insurance whereas my new chiropractor is. Overall, I feel that I wasted a lot of time and money here and would not recommend it. read more

I have had a very positive experience at montecito chriropractic center. This has been my first experience working with a chiropractor and I have had great results. I worked with Dr. Monica Egan the last several months who has kept me well informed through the process. This stuff takes time. I get a massage once a week and am very active, since the adjustments received my masseuse can't believe how much my neck has loosened up. This was pretty much the only tense area I had from an older Brazilian-jujitsu injury. I feel stronger and better balanced in my workouts. My handstands have improved almost instantly. Yes, I do handstands. Haha. Anyway good experience, my neck has been holding alignment for nearly three months! read more

Drs Elena Vince and Monica Egan are real gems - professional, caring, and offering quality chiropractic care. They are upper cervical specialists (Blair tradition). I always feel welcome. The open treatment area has a feeling of community, though at times it can become overly busy and fast paced. read more
