Dr Hines @ The Joint Chiropractic in San Marcos i've been seeing chiropractor services since the late 90s.. like everything else there are good and bad in everything.... i can honestly say without a doubt Dr Hines is truly top 5 chiropractors that i have come across in over 30 yrs.... and my apologies to those that consider yourselves great that i haven't come across yet... so you want a really good doc that knows his stuff, hit up this young thundercat, Dr Tayte Hines at The Joint San Marcos on Los Posas Rd, you'll be feeling good after that adjustment read more

I was disappointed with my experience. The adjustment felt very gentle and lacked the pressure I was expecting. Unlike the other chiropractic clinics I've visited, there was no noticeable spinal adjustment or release, and I left feeling almost no improvement. The practitioner seemed unable to apply enough force for an effective adjustment. Unfortunately, the treatment did not meet my expectations, and I don't plan to return. read more

Dr. Alex is exceptionally skilled and deeply attuned to his patients. His adjustments are always strong, precise, and responsive to what my body needs that day. I appreciate the time he takes before each session to identify areas of tension and tailor his approach. I consistently leave feeling better cared for and better aligned. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Alex Kamsi for years. He is an excellent Chiropractor! Everything said in the last few reviews about him is true. He is a very caring and professional man. He knows what he's doing and is good at it. read more

Dr Alex cares, and is a very experienced chiropractor. You will feel better after your visit. Remember, structure relates directly to function. So, if you clear nerve impingements, you function better. Simple as that. read more

Dr Alex is one of my favorite chiropractors. He is kind, listens, and has the magic touch. He's at San Marcos location every day except for Tuesdays and Sundays. I always feel 100% better after his powerful yet gentle adjustments. Highly recommend! read more

I arrived 15 minutes before closing and the lights were off and everyone gone. No warning ahead of time.

I have been going to the joint chiropractor in San Marcos for about 7 months. Alex is amazing and his staff are very friendly. I always feel at home there and they are always helpful read more

My daughter and I love The Joint Chiropractic in San Marcos. We are always greeted with a smile and treated with Kindness. Today Dr Alex was there and adjusted my daughter and I. He asked us how we were and if we were having any concerns. He treats you with professionalism, kindness and compassion. He is wonderful and we appreciate his talent with chiropractic care. We have also seen Dr Sharon at this location as well. She is so wonderful and does a great job. So kind and has a great smile. You can't go wrong seeing either Doctor! The staff is friendly, the store is clean and it's very convenient to get in and out without feeling rushed. We appreciate them and will continue to come see them. Thank you! ( We have seen both Doctors multiple times:) read more

I have been going to the Joint for years, starting out at a branch in San Diego when traveling a lot for work, I ended up going to places that suit me closer to errands or home, but it's helpful to be able to go to another location when traveling. Dr Sorensen was probably my longest standing DoC. He recently relocated to NorCal. I was sad to see him go but all the chiropractors are good. In more than seven years I've only seen one who was thought should not be practicing and he did not last long. If you are looking for relief from injury, back or joint issues, this is one solution to explore. I know it helps me live my best life. #TheJoint #AdjustMe #NaturalPainManagememt #TravelSolution read more

Dr. Ray Anvari was very rude and just asked if I want the adjustment or not before even looking into my file and said to one back Monday to a different doctor. I don't even know if he is who he says he is because he was very untrustworthy and unpersonable. I don't recommend this location nor adjustments here if it is this hostile. No front desk receptionist either read more

This place has great people working there but unfortunately management is what's wrong with the business world. I was told I get 4 visits a month with the plan I paid for Then the price doubled after the first month. I was injured so I couldn't go in for 2 months then when I cancelled my membership I was told that the visits I already paid for don't roll over. read more

Dr Sharon Brown is a jewel! I will go back on Sunday just to see her and will follow her where ever she goes! Her adjustment was excellent but so was her personality and the way she interacted with my 6 year old was just special to see the two of them chatting and having fun! A true jewel! Did I mention she has a great adjustment technique! read more

I was in tremendous pain, lower back was seizing up when I sat down for any length of time on any surface. Richard got me relaxed and fixed my whole spine. the doctor knows his bones and their alignments! Standing up from his table, i noticed todays nausea and headache are also gone, replaced with a surreal feeling thats incredibly wonderful. I think I'm in love haha read more

Came in here an hour before close. The front desk person notified me that I would need to complete by paperwork quickly as a new patient so they could see me same day or I would have to go back the following day. He was very funny about it so I appreciate the honesty. I got the paperwork completed and ushered back to see Dr. Williams. She was really great! She explained what chiro was, the benefits, things to expect etc. She really went above and beyond to go slow and explain things to me. I enjoyed my adjustment and she really worked on my sore hip. I had a great experience and will def be back for more alignment. read more

I went here for the first time a few weeks ago. My lower back is killing me after all the driving I did on vacation. This place is cheaper than any other chiropractor I've been too before. The first chiropractor I had was really good, a great communicator and really had my back feeling better after my adjustment. I went back the next week and had a different chiropractor. He was equally as awesome with telling me what he was doing and what to expect. I left that day feeling great and happy. The third time I went the guy wasn't a great communicator. He was basically popping and snapping, pulling and pushing while somewhat telling me. I didn't like that at all. He also used a massager which I didn't exactly like either. The fourth time I went back, the last chiropractor was there and I almost left. He asked me why, I told him and he did a much better job at talking to me first, then adjusting. I feel communication is key in life, especially if your getting adjustments. I wish I knew the chiropractors names, but unfortunately I do not. I would recommend this place if you are in need of adjustments. They have an amazing $29 first time price and if you check in with Yelp, you can get $10 off a plan. read more

The customer service here sucks! The chiropractor isn't authentic, the way he presents himself is so fake. Not only that but the customer wiser vice from the front desk person is bad! I went in on a 27th of the month. Paid for that visit and then signed up and I told them I wanted my membership to start on the 1st of the month. The idiots,l didn't pay attention to my request and signed me up as if I was starting my membership on the 27th. There was a reason why I needed it to start on the 1st. They couldn't solve the issue so I walked away and I'm never going to give them business. And what's annoying is that this chiropractor considers himself a doctor but he isn't a real doctor because chiropractors are not Doctors! read more

I came in to this place on a Saturday because my normal chiropractor isn't open on weekends and I had a great experience. The front desk employee was kind and welcoming and the chiropractor who worked on me was very helpful. I came in with a limp because of the amount of pain I was in, and I left feeling instant relief; still going to need to go back for more regular appointments but already I feel better than I did in the morning. So grateful they are open 7 days a week in San Marcos and grateful this chiropractor worked with me and let me take brakes to breathe in between each adjustment (because I get nervous). Also a really good price. read more

Sadly, over Dr. Hines time at The Joint in San Marcos, he's begun implementing rules for using the bathroom, rules against anyone sitting back with you during adjustments, even if the next patient is the person accompanying you, and today, he informed me that he will no longer do the specific adjustments he's been doing on and for me since Dr. Sorensen left (2 years?). One or the other, I get to pick. He won't do a drop table AND a side posture "because they adjust the same places even if I don't hear a pop." It's his new policy. "That's just the way he works." Well, it is since I left that review about you and your attitude already. Thank you, Dr. Hines, for being kind enough to adjust me today in both positions, since as we both noted, my back DID adjust during both the drop and side postures.... It's unfortunate for both of us that you'll probably see me again. -Crystal read more

The Joint Chiropractic - The Joint San Marcos - 12/12/2020 - Chiropractors Near Me - San Marcos, California

Dr Hines is Amaziiiiiiing. I can't believe I just recently started coming here. If you want to feel better come and see him.

Dr. Kintaru Oku is amazing. He listens and legitimately provides helpful feedback. Not only that but he ACTUALLY tailors your adjustment based on what you say is bothering you. I can't count the times I've expressed different body parts being sore or troublesome just to end up with the exact same adjustment. I hope he will be around for a while, because if he leaves, I will be following him! Please come see him and discover how great he is for yourself. read more

Dr Hines is an excellent Dr. He is Very knowledgeable and he's always brining my wife and I relief. No doubt that God gave him a gift. Nothing to but good to say about Dr Hines and his staff. He's always very friendly and so is his staff. Been coming to him for two years. read more

The Joint Chiropractic - Entrance - Chiropractors Near Me - San Marcos, California

I came here over Memorial day weekend after hurting my back while golfing. Dr. Sharon Brown saw me right away and was very informative and helped realign my back instantly. She heard my concerns and areas of discomfort/pain and was able to fix my issues. Highly recommend seeing Dr. Sharon Brown. read more

Yes better staff training is a must!!! She didn't even assist me in this matter she played the blame game and was pretty rude. Not the proper way to conduct business!!!! It was clearly an error on your end providing the wrong information!!!! Chris B (manager) keeps saying to reach out but doesn't send an email or contact #!!? So I don't know how to reach out because there is no other information!!!! read more

If I could give negative stars I would. I was first to arrive after their lunch break. They let 7 people go ahead of me because "I'm a new patient and take longer". After 45 minutes the doctor refused to treat me because I broke my collar bone 20 years before and didn't have x rays. Don't waste your time read more

I am VERY disappointed in my visit today!! I came in with my neck hurting and asked for that to be looked at along with everything else. Dr. Hines had me lay on the table and he adjusted my neck and said I'm all good to go. ??? I asked him to adjust my whole body, he then pressed three times on my pelvis and said I was good to go again. He did NOTHING for my WHOLE body. I asked him again to adjust my whole body and he said he did not need to because he already adjusted me. I paid $39 for that?? I have gone to the chiropractor my entire life because I was hit by a car when I was younger and it stunted my bone growth on my left side making my hips sit uneven so I KNOW how chiropractor visits SHOULD work. He was SO argumentative and defensive about what he was doing. He would not stop arguing with me once I said he didn't adjust my whole body. He did NOT listen to anything I had to say. That is NOT how you should be treating your patients!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND. TERRIBLE CHIROPRACTOR. read more

I've been seeing chiropractors for over 20years and in all of my visits to numerous chiro's in over 4 states I have never received worse patient care. Dr. Heinz is a cocky young man that has forgotten his mission in patient care. The strong arm technique is for bullies and con artists and has no place here. This is when we are vulnerable, when pain has set in and we are looking for help. I was told by Dr. Heinz that if I was not going to come in for regular visits that I "should find somewhere else to go" I've spoken with the Dr. that over sees the SD area and since visited the Carlsbad location. I had a very positive experience there. Remember to stand up for your self when someone is pressuring you in Healthcare or any where for that matter. read more

If you are looking for a chiropractor in North County San Diego, I highly recommend Dr. Tayte Hines at The Joint Chiropractic in San Marcos. Dr. Hines is not only professional and knowledgeable, but is very friendly and kind! Dr. Hines has more than met my needs to relieve my issues and pain from my very first visit. I have visited other Joint Chiropractic locations, but continue to return to the San Marcos location because of Dr. Hines. Try Dr. Hines--you will be happy and wish you had visited him sooner! read more

Went here for a free adjustment with this promotion they had. The chiropractor put me in a position to crack my neck and pushed down to crack it. It didn't crack immediately so they slammed my head harshly twice again to try to get it to crack. Instantly I felt a horrible severe pain in my neck like nothing I've ever felt. I literally thought my neck was going to break. I said that hurt so bad, and the chiropractor's exact words were "uh oh, that wasn't supposed to hurt" then they said relax your neck and lightly rubbed it a few times before finishing the last couple adjustments. My head was throbbing with the worst migraine I've ever had. They said sometimes after adjustments, some bad gases and things, need to release from your spine and it's normal to have a headache. The headache was shooting from the right base of my neck to the right of my spine all the way up to the right front of my head traveling in a painful line. It throbbed all day in such bad pain that I couldn't eat or sleep and felt like throwing up. I figured it would go away the next day after sleeping. After a week the pain was still the exact same, 2 weeks and I started to get worried about the headache so I went to the ER, they gave me muscle relaxing medicine which finally took the pain away. I declined the prescription which I ended up regretting and just took the shot they gave me. Finally I felt back to normal for just that day. Although the next day after the medicine wore off, the pain continued again for weeks. I was taking tons of Tylenol to try to help with the pain which wasn't really working. It was hard to sleep because of the pain and I was constantly waking up because of my head pounding. It was a horrible throbbing migraine, not just a small one. About 2 years later my neck has still never been the same. Luckily the headache went away after about 7 weeks, but my neck still is not as mobile, it feels like it gets caught or snagged when I turn my head a certain way. And it hurts to look down. The pain is like a 4/10 constantly if/when I move my neck. Anyway that's my experience here. read more

I had a chiropractor for 5 yrs that would Just do his thing and never explain or ask me How I was feeling . I started adjustments here for 3 weeks And have learned more and been treated better in 3 weeks and feeling great ! read more

Had a great experience here. No pressure to buy expensive plans- worked with my insurance and didn't pressure my wife and I to pay out of pocket for things not covered. A breath of fresh air read more

Dr. Meyer is young and I understand that, however, Dr. Oku had me spoiled. He was the only practitioner that kept me mobile and he's gone now back at the Oceanside location. Dr. Meyer has a lot to learn, but won't be "practicing" on me. I'm done with San Marcos after 2+ years. Dr. Meyer, if your assessment skills are indicative of your ability, Good luck to you. read more

Dr Hines' name is on the door and the one I prefer to see, although the other Drs are good too. A consummate professional and always very courteous Dr. Hines does his job and does it well. This is a subscription program and you take advantage of it by ensuring you get all of your appointments by showing up consistently. My neck soreness and back stiffness have gone away due to seeing the doctor every week. The plans are well worth it and I highly recommend this location due to Dr. Hines professionalism, bedside manner, and magic touch. He has the ability to know when he did not get a complete adjustment and does one small tweak and ends up getting that adjustment complete. I have taken full advantage of the program I subscribe to and I highly recommend it to anybody else looking for adjustments to be done, it's quick, it's efficient and it's effective. read more

Dr. Sorensen is wonderful! My husband swears by him and now so do I. The receptionists are always really friendly and I've never had to wait to be seen. Dr. Sorensen gets you in and out and does a great job. I will note that I saw one other doctor here and he gave me more of a massage than chiropractic care, so I highly recommend calling beforehand to make sure Dr. Sorensen is working if you're looking for serious bone cracking. read more

I recommend this location for chiropractic adjustment. I went in on a Wednesday afternoon. I didn't have to wait at all and I got excellent service from the front desk to the chiropractic adjustment. I was uncomfortable with the hip adjustment so the doctor did the adjustment in a way that made me more comfortable. If you're in need of chiropractic care, I recommend giving this place a try. The chiropractor that did my adjustment works Mon-Fri. read more

My first, blah experience at the Joint. I've been to several different locations in San Diego County, Temecula, Phoenix, and Utah and this was not at all what I was accustomed to. Every other location the chiropractor asks why I was visiting and if there was anything that was bothering me. They then do a quick assessment to see if I'm misaligned and where to focus their adjustment. The chiropractor here immediately had me lie on my back and she adjusted my neck, then my back. I couldn't believe she was adjusting areas without even knowing what to adjust. Really disappointed in the experience here. Luckily I've been to other locations and know this is not how all of the Joint locations operate. Note to self: Don't go to San Marcos. read more

I came to The Joint specifically because I have an internal condition I heard could be helped by chiropractic care. After filling out the forms, I talked to the doctor and figured out this wasn't the place for me. They focus on adjustments, not specialty work. Appreciated their honesty. I'd happily go back for a normal adjustment. The office is nice, and Bell at front desk is just delightful. I'm sending my aunt in to make this her new chiropracter. read more

Worst Joint in San Diego county . They were super rude, no one there to check people in 30 minutes after they opened. Doctor would not do it and instead had us just wait. He said someone would eventually be in to check us in and then just went back into the back room. read more

My back went out one morning before work, and I wasn't sure what to do. I found The Joint online, and saw all the great reviews on Dr. Hines. He is so nice and friendly, and knew exactly what my back needed to get me going again. I'm currently going twice a week, and every time everything is moving into place and feeling better and better every time. I'm so glad I found him. You will be too. read more

Management sucks. They don't respond. No regular doctor and they move them around too much. Hard to get consistent. Help when there's no consistency. read more
