This place is not even worth considering especially after hearing terrible reviews. When requesting a simple refund for an introductory session, the inept staff took 4 months to make a refund. They rarely returned calls and never lived up to their promise of sending a check. A simple refund request failed on so many levels and only provides a unique POV on how disorganized the staff is. read more

My husband was a patient here for four years, always trusting that his care came first. Recently, he was blindsided by a sudden price increase of over $100 per session -- more than double -- with no notice, no explanation, and no consideration for the financial impact. We understand that prices can rise, but an increase of this magnitude, sprung without warning, shows a complete lack of regard for patient well-being. He left feeling discouraged and unvalued, realizing he was just a number on their books. They didn't just raise the price -- they lowered the standard. read more

Avoid at All Costs - A Scam Disguised as Healthcare If you're considering visiting I'm Seal Beach Chiropractic, do yourself a favor--run in the opposite direction. This place isn't a healthcare clinic; it's a high-pressure sales operation preying on people's pain and trust. From the moment you walk in, you're funneled through a slick but deceptive process designed to convince you that you have dire spinal issues--whether you do or not. The so-called "scans" they use to diagnose patients are nothing more than pseudo-scientific gimmicks meant to create fear and justify outrageously expensive treatment plans. No legitimate medical professional would rely on these scans alone, but here, they act as gospel. Once they've "discovered" your supposed spinal disaster, you're subjected to an aggressive sales pitch. The staff is clearly trained to push long-term, pre-paid treatment plans that cost thousands of dollars. They pressure you into believing that without their services, your health will deteriorate. It's fear-mongering at its worst. And the actual treatments? A rushed, assembly-line experience that feels more like a money-grab than healthcare. You'll get the same cookie-cutter adjustments no matter what your issue is, and you're quickly shuffled out the door to make room for the next unsuspecting victim. Save your time, your money, and your spine. If you're looking for genuine chiropractic care, find a reputable, ethical practitioner--not a sales-driven scam artist like Seal Beach Chiropractic. read more

This place is a total scam don't go there! My husband and I tried she see s you for 2 to 3 mins off you go ! Doesn't remember either one us always cracked my neck after telling her I can't have that done since I have had major neck surgery 5 vertebrae s ! Luckily I caught her ! read more

AMAZING!!! I give Seal beach chiropractic a 100'star! The staff are so sweet and welcoming I was a bit shy it being my first time but they were so patient with me. I highly recommend them, Dr Prescott explained the strain of slouching can cause in my spine. She is an amazing doctor!! I was unaligned and I got once a week and she patches me right up! Overall it was a great experience such welcoming office and well maintained! read more

I loved the adjustment and the friendly service. I believe that if you are consistent about what the Dr recommends for you to do you actually feel the difference. Great service experience Dr. Lori Prescott has been in business for over 40 yrs. read more

Not even a real chiropractor. After multiple 3 minute "sessions' I said it wasn't helping my pinched nerve in my lower back. For which she said oh you didn't pay for that package. I said that is why I'm here. So what are you doing. Got a blank face. Only half way through my "plan" didn't bother asking for the rest of my money back. Scammed like them will always get around refunds. Don't know how they sleep at night. They are taking money and helping no one. Ow no why they are cash only. No insurance company would partner with them. Have never filed a complaint with th Better Business Bureau. But they've pissed me off enough that I'm going to try to stop this scam. Shame on them. And don't like seeing this in our community. Beware read more

Scientology run. Odd defensive vibes from sales lady who will hold you hostage in a closed and unventilated room while she coughs incessantly and shows you sample after sample of X-rays of other people to "teach you about" spinal curvature. read more

So I've been dealing with some back pain and pressure for a few weeks now and tried acupuncture in KTown & it helped but the stiffness didn't go away. Every time I sit down or use the restroom, I'd be stiff getting back up and my body naturally leans to one side so I looked crooked when I washed my hands. I saw this place on IG actually. Their promotion was such a great deal it seemed too good to be true but I inquired anyway. They were fast in reaching out to me via text and I made an appt. Got here last Monday and my son was with me but they were so kid-friendly my son loved their staff and office. Even the Doctor was super cool with him. This is my new favorite chiropractor office! I went to another place but he was always so booked and parking wasn't ideal so I'm so glad I found you guys! I didn't realize my lower back and hips were feeling discomfort and pinched nerve because the bottom bone was hitting my pelvic bone! No wonder! Thanks so much for the x ray, decompression & electrodes! I'll be back next week for the x ray overview and plan of action to get my body back in shape and aligned! read more

After seeing Dr. Dave for a few months I wasn't really happy with his office setup. They have 5-8 patients there at a time and he hops from one to another to offer treatment. The process takes about an hour every time, by the time you get in, wait, get treated, and leave - which is a lot of time considering he's only with you for about 10mins total. Dr. Dave is a nice person and a great doctor, however I felt like at times he was a little pushy about how many appointments I had to fulfill per week. I decided to break my "contract" with him because it just wasn't working and boy am I paying for it. If you break your contract then he backtracks and charges you full price for every appointment you went to. Moral of the story? Don't break your contract, or find a more flexible chiropractor. I will say this, if you have the time and patience go for it, he cares about his patients and has a good following which is why I gave him four stars. I just wish he wouldn't have insisted I go twice a week like I had, that bill racked up quick. read more

Seal Beach Chiropractic Center - Getting fitted for the decompression machine. - Chiropractors Near Me - Seal Beach, California

As much as I appreciate being able to refer clients, family and friends for services to professionals, I know the experience does not always result in such a positive way. So when I referred a friend, who happened to be in excruciating pain, to "Dr. Dave", not only was it comforting to know that he took special care to fit him in, but that he went above and beyond to send him a text the following morning to see how he was doing. I also appreciate his approach to reach resolution in care and not sales/numbers. Dr Dave not only are you an outstanding neighbor and member of the community, but you're genuine quality of being carries over into your daily practice. Thank you so much!! I can now say with absolute confidence that my referrals are in good hands!! read more

Never been to the chiropractor in 29 years and my mind was blown with how much I learned about my back compared to all the military doctors I've been around for 8 years. Joshua and the team went above and beyond with their services and gave me an honest full assessment with adjustments, x ray, decompression machine, stimulation and ice and more adjustments for such a good price considering there professionalism. Would highly recommend giving it a try. read more

Went in for a shoulder issue unfortunately my shoulder was never even touched with one finger by any of the doctors. You'd think they'd try and diagnose the issue before coming up with a plan of action to fix it. Nope straight to an adjustment along with stem treatment. Treatment for what though? The issue was never figured out or even given the effort to figure out. Sadly these guys just try and book you for more appointments and more treatments so that can make money off of you. Also the adjustment was 3 positions and that was it. Very poor service here wouldn't recommend to anyone who is actually in pain read more

I was very disappointed and expected alot more for 39.00 , I don't think the decompression machine was even turned on ,there was absolutely nothing, I asked and they said yes ,that they had to keep it at at low level. Nothing is the lowest levelou can get ,it was bullshit total ripoff ,same thing for the electronic pads ,nothing at all. It was a total scam just to get my forty bucks...I'm scheduled for another appt. They told me three sessions s over the phone,but only offered me one more...but im not going to bother with it ,it was a joke and honestly should not have paid them,but I did...I'm actually kinda passed about the treatment,it was the worst non result ripoff,im so stupid to waste my time and money...I'm on a 542.00 month income and my back pain so bad I can't stand it any more,I really had hopes of some relief or something but it was a total joke. Do not recommend this place to anybody no star for this service. It's like getting an empty box for a Happy Meal, you just sit and stare at it ! I really needed that to work out for me...I been in so much pain,I can't take it anymore..... read more

Dr Dave and staff make you feel like family. My care is top notch, and Dr Dave remembers all of your personal aches and pains. The approach improves all aspects of your life. read more

From my first visit, 2 years ago, I've always felt like Dr. Dave and I were partners, working together on my own wellness. He places a lot of emphasis on education so that I understand my situation and what we are doing together to address the root of the problems. Throughout the year, I take regular re-exams and x-rays so that we can monitor improvements. I have had several issues related to my scoliosis, including a compressed disc causing sciatic pain when I run long distances (one of my favorite things to do!). The x-rays have shown tremendous results, moving my spine over 10 degrees closer to the correct alignment. I cannot you how thrilled I am to see this! I would highly recommend Seal Beach Chiropractic Center! read more

I purchased $100 Groupon for 3 adjustments and an x-ray, and I'm sad to say I had a very bad experience and I cannot believe this place tried to rip me off. At my 1st appointment I received an x-ray, but the chiropractor could not discuss the results with me until my next appointment because he said he "had a feeling the results were not very good, so I should have my spouse there to discuss payment plans and for moral support"? How could the chiropractor know that my results were going to be bad and that I was going to need a whole payment plan setup if he hadn't reviewed my results yet? He also said that my back was in really bad condition and therefore "could not perform an adjustment." He then walked me over to the tech, and she hooked me up with an icepack and the electrical stimulator machine, not sure what it's called? Appointment #2, I decided not to bring my spouse because I still felt it was super weird that the chiropractor expressed huge concern for him to be there. I showed up solo and he jumped straight into my X-ray results by telling me I had an x-ray "of a 50 year old person" and that I had "the crap shoot of genetics." I was immediately bummed and frightened, tons of emotions were going on in my head. He said I needed to start immediately coming twice a week for 8 weeks and that my insurance would not cover the first 8 weeks of treatment and I would have to pay $100 ($200/week) per treatment out of pocket. I explained that I have amazing insurance (they cover acupuncture) but he said without a doubt, that he was 100% sure it's not covered and refused to check. I told him immediately that I would not pay up front for services, and he said I would miss out on the discount. Then he told I needed to watch an 8 minute video? Okay...sure I will sit here and watch a video I thought? He came in to the room to check on me and could tell I was not interested in the video, so he ended it early. I asked again about the back adjustment I paid for, but he said that my back was in too bad of condition so as an alternative, he hooked me up to their decompression machine and told me not to worry because "they were not going to charge me for the 5 minutes." What, um thanks I guess? They immediately scheduled me for my treatment plan to begin the following week. I decided to google "chiropractor scams" because none of this felt right. Everything I found about chiro scams included: scare tactics, bringing in family members so they are also distraught and therefore make poor financial decisions with you, and watching a video! OMG, this place did all of those things! I called to tell them I was going to get a second opinion and asked if I could have MY x-rays sent over to my primary doctor, but they were unable to because they were not digital. I decided to get x-rays by a Board Certified Radiologist and she said I had zero issues with my bones! I was relieved! I went and even got a 3rd opinion from a Medical Doctor with a Board Certification in Pain Management and Anesthesiology and he said there were also no issues! In the end I did not go back to this clinic. I paid $100 for an X-ray that I could not have transferred anywhere and I received 0 out of 3 back adjustments. I feel like such a sucker! It makes me sad that there are people out there who want to scam you like this! Please do your research. Good luck! read more

My son has been dealing with a serious spinal curvature for a while. Our regular doctors have been doing the "wait and see" for several years. Dr. Dave and his staff have been a wonderful presence for us. After the first three visits, my son no longer has the back pain that we initially went in for and his shoulders are evening out. Dr. Dave and his staff are very informed and patient about helping people. read more

Dr. Josh and Dr. Dave have been life savers, I was unable to walk for a couple weeks and they helped me when i couldn't get help from regular doctors. I have relief now and feel so good when I leave their office. They don't just adjust you right away. They take X-rays and explain to you what is going on. Cindy at front desk and the other employees are very friendly. I would highly recommend taking the time for yourself and making this your chiropractic office of choice for your wellness. read more

Dr Dave is amazing. Began as a patient due to a sore neck that never went away. After a few sessions things began to loosen up and gets better as my treatment continues. He seems to know all of his patients on a personal level and spends time with each to educate about spinal health and the importance of chiropractic care. My wife, mother and son are all patients as well. The office staff are all friendly and very knowledgable in what they do. A+ read more

After having such a great experience with my chronic lower pain treatment I decided to take my 98yr old grandmother in to Seal Beach Chiropractic Center for an evaluation. She complained about having a lot of discomfort thru out all her body and her mobility was very limited. After her XRays and evaluations, Dr. Dave recommended the decompression therapy as well. But he suggested a three session trial to make sure she would be able to handle it and to see if she has any positive or negative response. After the the FREE trial we immediately started seeing improvements. She was moving better, had less body discomforts, and for the first time in a long time had well rested sleep. Along with the decompression therapy she would also get adjusted by Dr. Josh. He is always so gentle with her but still giving her results. She loves getting treated by him. I'm 35 and got excellent result for my chronic lower back pain, my grandma is 98yrs old and benefited greatly from her treatment. If surgery is the last option and are looking for an alternative option then give Seal Beach Chiropractic Center a try your body will thank you and you won't regret it. Dr. Dave, Dr. Josh, Cindy, and the staff are awesome and are truly a Family practice for the whole family, and I believe they also evaluate pets for all the furparents out there! read more

I can't say enough about this place. I had never been to a chiropractor until about 6 years ago when I developed a bulging disc in my lower back. Someone referred me to SBC and I'm so glad they did. I recently injured my back and have had to go back for regular weekly decompression therapy. Dr. Dave and Dr. Josh have always been super helpful and dedicated to fixing my many back and neck issues. Cindy at the front desk is so welcoming and makes sure I always stay on schedule. Which is not an easy task. And Najia and Patricia in the back are always so friendly. I couldn't ask for a better group of people to help heal my back. Thanks guys!! read more

Great staff. Back is getting better every day. Dr Josh and Dr Dave taught good stretches to keep back strong.

I have been going to Dr. Dave for almost 30 years. He has also treated every member of my family and many friends. He always takes the time to fully explain treatment options and truly wants his patients to get well and stay that way. His staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who want to improve their health. read more

I went to Seal Beach Chiropractic Center with excruciating neck pain. Dr Dave and Dr Josh helped me immediately. Within the first week I was getting relief from my pain. They are professional, friendly, and genuinely care. They were sensitive to my financial circumstances and did all they could to help me get better. They made me feel like my well being was their main concern. They explained everything they are doing and even offer a class for new patients. The office staff are friendly and always helpful. I would highly recommend them to anyone, whether it be urgent matter like I had or if your looking for preventive care. read more

My daughter was going to him and when I came by t0 discuss her treatments he got defensive and never answered any questions I had. He said he wasn't expecting me but yet he had her xrays there ready to show me. Don't believe anything he had to say. When asked about physical therapy etc he had no answer. You would think an experience chiropractor would have a plan. Very disappointed in his in office reaction to some simple questions. read more

Got in a car accident and told by family this is the place to go, world class service and Doctors that know exactly what they are doing. I stayed with the treatment and it got me closer to something I thought I would never experience again, "a pain free life" read more

Dr. Dave and his staff really care! I've been a patient for many years and I feel like Dr. Dave knows me better than any other dr I've visited. He always listens and looks at the big picture. His office has made a huge difference in my overall health and well-being. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Dave on and off for 6 years. I am now back, but after leaving the area a few years ago, I was forced to see other chiropractors in my new city. Because of my experience with Dr. Dave, I was able to tell the difference between the quacks and the good guys out there. Dr. Dave is the best back doctor ever! He makes it a point to educate each and every client on the benefits of chiropractic care, and to make sure they understand their care plan, and why or how their back is injured, and how he's going to fix it. Other doctors in my new city were amazed at MY knowledge of chiropractic benefits and the dangers of subluxations, spinal curvatures, spurs on the discs and so on..Other doctors DO NOT go into this much detail to ensure YOU know exactly what they are doing to you. I really learned something about general health and arthritis from seeing Dr. Dave. I went from being very fearful of adjustments to CRAVING them in my new town. There is no way that Dr. Dave is making up excuses for you to come in for more visits. The proof is in the pudding; when he reviews all your X-rays (right in front of you) you can actually see the difference in your bones and it's easy to see the progress you are making with your Chiropractic care. Visiting Seal Beach Chiropractic is like joining a "care club!". It's an open environment (love it or leave it) where the jovial Dr. Dave adjusts several patients at once in group sessions. He even gives "pop quizzes" to his "chiropractic students" about their progress, and while Bob is "icing," Sara's on the electro stimulator, and as he adjusts Mike, Betty is working on her leg stretches, and he manages to make everyone comfortable and relaxed, but also respects everyones privacy at the same time. If you need to discuss anything about your condition, he will talk to you in the private adjustment room, otherwise, a visit here is kinda fun! I always leave with a smile, and sometimes snacks are provided too! There is NO better Chiropractor in Seal Beach-just go already. Dr. Dave will completely change your opinion about Chiropractors. read more

I have been a patient for 3 months now and my experience could not be better. Dr. Dave does an excellent job in explaining how his treatments are healing you. As an ironman triathlete I had many nagging injuries that would flare up from time to time. Since I have started in December the injuries have been non existed to greatly reduced. I would recommend anyone and everyone to doctor Dr. Dave if they are injured or not. Preventive maintenance will always be better than waiting to react to pain or symptoms read more

VERY DISAPPOINTED in how Dr. David is EXPLOITING me! He took advantage of my circumstance and is trying to manipulate me into paying more than what the contract clearly states in black and white and has the nerve to file suit without even responding to my numerous letters disputing his fraudulent charges! For one, there is no indication on the contract that states what type of services are being performed, what type of equipment is being used and that there is an EXTRA charge for the use of certain equipment or anything else. It clearly states $54 office visits. Secondly, I was matter-of-factly told at the end of the appointment I deemed as my last appointment after he told me that I will have to be charged for the use of decompression machine without being told how much EXTRA that would be! Not to mention that none of the decompressions went past two minutes and were wrongly calibrated!!! Making me feel WORSE than when I started. I am a cash paying client (without insurance). Surely, anything EXTRA would have to be clearly stated upfront and approved. Should I have known upfront that I would be charged this EXTRA (not indicated on the contract) expense; I would have not allowed that method of therapy. I have unfortunately resorted to filing a complaint with the Board and will respond to suit. He and his staff were nice HOWEVER, his business practice is deceiving, manipulating and fraudulent. Fair is Fair. read more

I would give them 6 stars if possible. I have been going here for many many years for maintenance. I am part of the Monday morning group and I love it. Since I have been a patient, I have not had a cold or flu because I stay in alignment and healthy with Dr. Dave. In addition, every person that works there is so incredibly nice and friendly. It is a real treat to visit. I highly recommend Seal Beach Chiropractic to everyone. read more

Dr. Dave and the whole staff are wonderful! Dr. Dave knows each of his patients personally. He is concerned with the patient knowing about their bodies and why he is doing different things. I think it is important to know what you are spending your money on and Dr. Dave does a great job at making sure I know how and why chiropractic care is helping me. Since going to Dr. Dave I have seen my overall health get better. I would definitely recommend him and his office to anyone. read more

I have been to many chiropractors in my life since about 20 yrs ago due to many car accidents and by far this Chiropractic Center is the best. Doctor Josh's adjustments make me feel like a brand new person. He is very friendly and he listens to what you have to say. Going to see Doctor Josh and Doctor Dave is the best remedy for all of my neck and back issues. The expertise of Doctor Dave with all of his years of experience, combined with Doctor Josh's manipulations, they are the best team. My body has improved and I can do so many things I could not do before without pain thanks to Doctor Josh and Doctor Dave. Things that are simple to other people like sitting, driving, looking at my computer that i could not do before without pain are now possible thanks to Doctor Josh and Doctor Dave. Thank you so very much to all of you at Seal Beach Chiropractic Center. Do not know what I would do without Doctor Josh, Doctor Dave, Cindy, and Melanie. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to you guys. Without you all I would still be in tons of pain. Seal Beach Chiropractic Center is the best and I do not know what I would do without them! read more

I have chronic low back pain for years & have tried numerous types of therapy. I was referred to Dr. Dave by my massage therapist. I just wanted a quick tweak on move on but he asked me if I wanted a quick fix or if I wanted to treat my ailment?

Dr. Dave and his staff, truly treat you and educate you on your therapy. I appreciate that they show concern about your well being and treat you with respect and not just a number.

Dr. Vigil is beyond amazing. I've been seeing him since I was in a car accident in 2001. I cannot tell you how much has he helped me through the years. Unlike a lot of chiropractors, he actually does x-rays and teaches you all about what is going on in your body. He wants to make sure that he is fixing the root of the problem, not just the symptoms of it. I'm currently pregnant and was having the worst back pain ever. Dr Dave has been working on it for a few weeks and I feel so much better. I don't know if I would have been able to get through this without him! The office staff is great too--shout out to Cindy & Jodi!! If you need a great, honest and reliable chiropractor who really knows what they are doing, Dr. Vigil is your man!! read more

I have been going here for probably a year now, and I can't tell you enough how much it has helped me.
