Dr. Chris is awesome…read more I'm a professional coach, and have worked with many therapists over the years. Chris is intuitive, kind, insightful, and works with powerful tools. I walked away from my first session with a deeper and unique understanding of some issues I'm dealing with, including practical data on how I breathe and could breathe more effectively. Don't compromise - give Chris a call.

Dr. Marrero combines the best of state of the art science with a warm and welcoming bedside manner…read morethat is rare to find. She has keen insights into the way highly accomplished respond to and deal with stress. I never knew that the baseline way that I breathed contributed to my symptoms when I'm a stressful environment! Even from the first day, she prescribed a treatment plan that I am confident will improve my ability to deal with difficult situations and the day to day stressors of being a professional. I'm very selective when choosing how to spend my time seeking help, and with Dr. Marrero, you know your energy will be invested wisely! Don't delay and make your appointment - a first step toward getting the help we all need.

Dr Mary Trumpi, Dora, Trudy and her team are excellent all around!!…read more I initially was a physical therapy skeptic (due to a poor previous experience several years ago in the Bay Area), but Dr Trumpi has made me a believer! I rolled my ankle last summer and I thought I could just handle the recovery on my own... but 4 months on, my ankle was still 2x the size and constantly bothering me to where I couldn't sleep. Before being totally resigned to having to buy different sized shoes for the rest of my life, I finally asked my primary doctor for a referral, but the clinic recommended had a 4 month waitlist and did not accept my insurance. So I went to my trusty Yelp search and Santa Monica Sports Medicine was the top result, and so I decided to book an appointment. Calling the office was a breeze and I had an appointment within a couple weeks. They kept prompt communication and verified my insurance benefits right away, which amazingly helpful (I've experienced many doctor offices that just leave you on your own and tell you to call insurance yourself before booking an appointment). When I came for my first appointment, I was surprised to be seen by Dr Trumpi herself, because I felt my injury was fairly minor... also I couldn't even say it was a sharp pain, just more an annoyance to daily life. Dr Trumpi took her time with me even though asking lots of questions and I felt immediately comfortable with her and that I was in good hands. She wrote up an exercise plan and walked me through a variety of in clinic treatment options and tailored everything to my comfort level, from massage to electrical stimulation and so on. I continued every couple weeks with her and was amazed how quickly my ankle improved. I no longer was resolved to have to buy different sized shoes! She also started treating me for my chronic back pain -- which again, I never thought was a big deal --just life soreness haha, but I now know it's actually something treatable. Thank you Santa Monica Sports Medicine!

If I could give Dr.Trumpi and her team 10 stars I would. My boyfriend recommended her to me as he's…read morebeen coming here for years and we've been going together ever since my first visit. Every single staff member has been wonderful! We adore Stevie! He's been great when we come in for Sports Massage (which is an hour long and so thorough). The staff has been so accommodating with insurance and even if you don't have insurance the out of pocket is SUCH a good deal for all the different types of care you'll recieve! Dr.Trumpi herself is such a wonderful human being and is just the coolest most down to earth person and doctor. I kid you not, the first adjustment/ "back crack" I received from her I was in tears of joy afterwards. I felt amazing and it actually lasted! I can't thank her enough for the difference she's made for us both. We come in fairly regularly for sports massage and adjustments and always look forward to it. Thank you so much to everyone at "Santa Monica Sports Medicine"! I couldn't recommend them more and I'll continue sharing with everyone I know.

Kolt Chiropractic is amazing. Others have mentioned this in reviews, but it bears repeating: he…read morespends time listening and asking questions, doesn't rush you in and out, and somehow always remembers something about you. I'm not sure if he takes notes on what is discussed or if he just has a great memory, either way it's appreciated and adds to the care he provides! He knows the exact muscles to target and even though the pressure points can feel tender at first, it's amazing to see the results as your muscles actually loosen and allow your joints to really adjust. The adjustments were perfect and never too much or painful. He also has all the machines and devices you might need to care for whatever is going on. A few extra points: - Pricing is fair and reasonable. - He doesn't push you to come in more than you really need. (I asked about coming in once a week and while he said I could, he said that every other week would work just as well. I appreciated he didn't just try to "upsell" me.) - Parking is available and easy - Liz (Front desk) is nice and super awesome.

Dr. Kolt and Liz are the kind of duo that make you walk in tense and leave thinking, okay... maybe…read moreI'm not falling apart after all. Liz is an actual saint. Full stop. Always smiling, always patient, and somehow able to make scheduling work even when your life is a mess. You don't get that "ugh, you're inconveniencing us" vibe. It's the opposite. She handles everything with calm, kindness, and competence, and that alone lowers your stress level before you even get treated. Dr. Kolt is next level thorough. He pays attention. He asks questions that actually matter. And he doesn't do the same cookie cutter visit every time because your body isn't the same every time. He explains what's going on in a way that makes sense, checks in constantly, and you can tell he genuinely cares about progress, not just getting you in and out. If you deal with chronic pain or a chronic condition, you already know the struggle of finding someone who doesn't treat you like you're being dramatic or "too complicated." Dr. Kolt gets it. He's patient, realistic, and consistent, and he works with your body over time instead of pretending there's a magic fix. The vibe is: we're going to figure this out together, and you don't have to be stressed about it. They also make the practical stuff easy. They take many insurance plans, work with personal injury and car accident cases, and can coordinate with attorneys if that's part of your situation. Again, it's very much "we'll make it work" energy, not "good luck, figure it out." Bonus points for logistics: free parking on site, plus an underground garage (in LA that's basically a luxury amenity). The office is on the second floor, with stairs and an elevator. If you want a chiropractor who's skilled, thorough, and actually makes you feel taken care of, this is the place. Also, fair warning: once you go here, other offices will feel annoying.

Dr. Carlos Rodriguez, DC and his amazing team at Prodigy Chiro Care have given me back my freedom!…read moreI came in a few months ago with back, knee, and hip pain from running and previous conditions and injuries, and from day one I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Carlos is so kind, attentive, and personable - he was thorough in understanding my symptoms and goals and then got straight to work building a tailored chiropractor plan of care for me. With relieving adjustments, spinal decompression, and custom orthotics, I'm now able to run multiple miles at a time again without pain and sleepless nights. I feel like I have a new body and I'm so grateful! If you're looking for a holistic chiropractor who is committed to your success, this is the place for you! They have offices throughout LA and are very flexible with scheduling. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

I decided to see Dr. Carlos Rodriguez at Prodigy Chiro Care, before proceeding with any surgery. After three years of numbness radiating down the back of my legs, (anytime I danced or walked), Dr. Rodriguez alleviated the issue in the first session. Of course, more sessions with follow. I advised the surgeons of this development, and they said to continue with these sessions and we will postpone the surgery. I highly recommend that anyone with back issues see Dr. Rodriguez before proceeding with any kind of surgery. Even the physical therapy sessions I had did not relieve my symptoms as well as Dr. Rodriguez's methods.
