Dr. Simpson has made a believer out of a skeptic. I had never been to a chiropractor before as I believed it to be quackery, but after being referred to him from a mutual friend, I thought I'd humor her and try him. I had a slight sciatica pain, and pain in the upper arm/shoulder. Within the first adjustment I could feel the pain in the leg improve drastically. I went back to work on my arm/shoulder and within 2 appointments mobility in my arm has increased noticeably and that dull steady pain has started to subside. I am no longer rubbing my arm, and don't think about the pain any more during the day, just slightly when I get up in the morning. The adjustments that he has done in 3 sessions, have made a very noticeable difference in the pain. I will keep going to see Dr. Simpson for any other muscle/skeletal issues before reaching for the pain reliever, as I am convinced he will make a difference! Thank you Dr. Simpson, you are not a quack!! :) read more

I've always been a fan of chiropractic and would periodically go if I've ever experienced back pain. But recently I was influenced to particularly give the Gonstead method a try. Being that I was pregnant I thought it would be the perfect time since I believe adjustments can lead to a smoother pregnancy and labor. My understanding is that Gonstead is different in that it uses a more complete analysis and more in depth techniques to analyze neurological effects as well as taking a person's overall health into consideration. For example, taking x-rays before adjusting. At one point in my pregnancy I experienced some round ligament pain and Dr. Simpson took care of it right away. Dr. Simpson is super easy to talk to, friendly, very thorough and makes you feel comfortable. I sometimes get nervous but he has a very calming demeanor. The office is very clean, the staff is very friendly, I love that he helps train students and in the short time that I've been going, he has made several improvements to the office. I love the fun, relaxing music that is always playing too. I'm glad to report that I ended up having a super easy, quick labor and delivery at home with no complications. Once my son was born we both came in for adjustments and Dr. Simpson was soooo good with the baby. He noticed something out of alignment in his back and fixed it right away and I'm so glad we came, even though it's a drive from where we live, it has been worth it. read more

Dr Tyler and his therapists are awesome. I worked with Tanya and she helped heal my lower back pain. I was in a lot pain. Couldn't cough or sneeze without pain. Couldn't bend or twist without pain. My husband had seen Dr Tyler before for his back and recommend I go. I'm so glad he did. read more

Dr. Simpson moved from Orange County the week that I came to seek treatment so I started with his trainee, Dr. O and he has taken such good care of me through an incredibly challanging time. I'm so grateful!!! read more

It was a day before the Tax Deadline and I was in pain with a massive migraine and nauseous at work. In a complete panic state, I still had work to do and I called 19 places nearby to see if anyone could fit me in. Not an exaggeration. Absolutely no office could take me. The 20th time was the charm, I was able to see Curtis within the hour of calling. Although I had to step out to throw up a couple of times in the appointment, he was so kind and patient. He was able to pinpoint the issue and adjust me. Heard a giant crunch and within a couple of hours the migraine and nausea dissipated, I was able to work till late the same day. Much appreciated! read more

Absolutely recommend this place. Dr. Mitchell is amazing! She's very skilled, caring, and compassionate. Adjustments here are more than a "crick, pop, thank you, ma'am", it's much more therapeutic. They use electric "stim", and Dr. Mitchell will take the time stretch you if need be to make the adjustment easier and more effective. I've also had a few massages from their massage therapists. Always a good experience with them too. The therapists are kind and professional, and because it's more medical then spa like, there's more focus on problem spots. Much more effective than a traditional Swedish massage. Bottom line: This place is professional, affordable, and they take some insurances. Everyone here is great; Highly recommended. read more

This review is long overdue, sorry Dr. Simpson!! I've been visiting Dr. Simpson since November 2021 with severe lower back pain and numbness in my toes. I walked in blindly not knowing what to expect as this was my very first experience visiting a chiropractor. Dr. Simpson has ALWAYS been very thorough and honest and explains everything in detail. Excellent customer service and I have always left his office feeling like a million bucks. I know every body is different but I am so grateful I gave this place a chance because I have noticed a huge difference in my pain level and mobility. I feel some sense of normalcy in my life again as I am now significantly in less pain, I can workout without discomfort, and no more tingles in my toes! Truly life changing. Gonstead for the win!!! read more

I've seen Dr. Mitchell for months now and have noted significant improvements in my health and well-being. I went from being unable to breathe to being able to fully participate in physical activity again. Seriously - Dr. Mitchell is nothing short of a miracle worker. I've referred two of my students to her for spinal adjustments, and each one has come back noting the same improvements. read more

Abiding Dr Simpson was notable for me because it has been an experience which has absolutely changed my life. I have been to chiropractors all my life receiving both adjustments and massages. However just getting adjusted by Dr Tyler has completely reshaped my back for the better and with each visit I find that changes are visible through my appearance and lifestyle. I had issues with a winged scapula and despite being seen by 3 other chiropractors Dr Simpson was able to fix my entire back in just one session. After having returned for three adjustment sessions in total I can confidently state that I will be returning to Costa Mesa for Dr Tyler's services as visiting him has been absolutely life changing! read more

I used to be a patient of Dr. Heller's. I went mainly due to back pain issues and I cannot recommend him enough. The man's got the magic touch. Initially he asked me to come in weekly for a couple of months and then over time we cut back to once a month. I feel he helped improve my back tremendously. Plus he is an awesome guy, and the staff is very friendly too. I think Chiropractic care is a good alternative to constantly taking meds for chronic pain etc. I'd like to be clear though that It's not a magic pill, ie my back still has some issues but in terms of pain and frequency, it's 10X better than before. read more

Dr. Simpson is very knowledgeable and thorough in his technique. He takes his time and really listens to his patients. In just a few short appointments my pain has greatly diminished and I am on my way to maintaining a more active lifestyle. read more

Dr. Simpson was able to relieve my lower and upper back pain with a few visits. He also took a few xrays and pointed out that I'm suffering from Spondylolisthesis. No wonder I was hurting! Feeling better now thanks to continued adjustments. read more

All my visits with Dr. Simpson were beyond incredible. He managed to heal and educate me on all the pain I've had for YEARS but never understood. My body had gotten so used to a popped out rib, a twisted knee joint, and sudden headaches. I had been to medical doctors regarding these symptoms, but all I'd get were prescriptions for ibuprofen. Before seeing him, I had this specific spot in my mid-back that if it were touched, I'd have very intense muscle spasms similar to the ones I have when I have anxiety attacks. After seeing him for 5 months, all of those symptoms are GONE. I have never felt healthier and stronger in my life. I cannot thank him enough for giving me peace of mind for my own body. I can walk better, breathe better, sleep better, and even SIT better. I always believed I had a more fragile body compared to others regardless of how well I took care of myself, but that's not the case at all. I just needed to find the right medication to get me to my top performance and I found that in the gonstead chiropractic technique. Everyone needs to get properly checked by a gonstead chiropractor because being treated by Dr. Simpson has allowed me to feel on top of the world being this healthy. read more

FOUND IT! The needle in a haystack of chiropractors! Definitely give Dr. Tyler and his office of Gonstead Chiropractors a try. I had upper, lower, and mid-back issues from three back-to-back pregnancies and years of nursing. I've been to a bunch of chiropractors, good and ok ones. Dr. Tyler is a really REALLY good one. He's passionate about his work, cares about his patients, and he uses proven Gonstead techniques to give you targeted adjustments, not just a standard crank and twist. One month into weekly treatments and I my back spasms aren't flaring up, I sleep better, and wait for it -- my hemorrhoids are going down! No way, I didn't know Gonstead adjustments can fix hemorrhoids!! It's great to feel good again! Both my husband and my son have been adjusted and I'm planning to take my mom there next! Truly appreciate you, Dr. Tyler! -- Signed SUPER busy mom but this is the least I can do for myself and share this HIDDEN GEM with others! :) read more

Dr. Simpson is great. The first time I went, I let him know I was having problems with my lower back. He took some x-rays and after a couple of visits I felt like normal. Turns out a back injury from deadlifting and throwing my back out never healed correctly and needed to be adjusted. I go see him once a month to keep my body from being stiff. With all the working from home and sitting at your desk, I highly recommend seeing Dr. Simpson for all your needs. read more

Amazing work with Tyler. My fiancé came in with leg numbness but he was able to readjust her to get it gone after a little over a week! Keep in mind her numbness has been reoccurring for 2 years now, so to have it fixed that quickly speaks volumes. As for myself, I was having a lot of stress on my upper and lower back. I was able to get readjusted and the pain had gone from 100 percent to 20 percent in the same amount of time as my fiancé. I plan to continue going here with knowing he has our best interests through efficient methods. read more

Dr. Tyler Simpson got me out of pain very quickly when I pulled a rib out. He is amazing!! Highly recommend.

I love this chiropractor! Always clean and so friendly. Good ambiance music. Always felt welcomed. Dr. Heller is awesome. He use to adjust me years ago. Before I knew what yelp was lol. Recently Dr. Mitchell has been helping me. She's amazing!!! In her careers she started with massage therapy, then physical therapy, and then chiropractic. So yes, (along with everyone else who reviewed) her adjustments are the best! She really covers all the bases. I've never had my shoulder adjusted, and let me tell you, it's a revelation! On top of that, she's genuine and so nice. I always feel so much better after leaving. I wish I could go there twice every week! read more

Great chiropractor. He greatly reduced my headaches to almost non existent. Beautiful office and always friendly staff.

Came to Tyler for nagging low back pain that I could not shake off by just stretching. He was able to assess my needs & create a treatment plan to help get me out of pain. I felt immediate relief after my first visit & can genuinely feel a difference in my body after only 2 sessions. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an experienced chiropractor! read more

Dr. Simpson is a life-saver. I go to him for everything ranging from headaches to menstrual cramps to foot pain. He is not your typical chiropractor that applies a band-aid for symptom relief, but rather, he identifies the specific issue and fixes it. Every. Time. Find your relief. Get in here. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Heller's for years and I have nothing but great things to say about him and his staff. He hires great massage therapists and the front desk people are always great. Dr. Heller gives gentle but effective adjustments. I always leave the office feeling like I'm walking on a cloud. I walk in feeling kinked and crooked and leave feeling straight and tall. Highly recommended. read more

Dr. Simpson is a great chiropractor. He's very thorough and helped manage my shoulder and neck pain in just a few visits.

This is my second review because it's a wonderful place and they have a new Chiropractor named Aimee Duarte who is wonderful! She took her time and really asked a lot of questions about my pain. She did some helpful things I haven't had done before and it helped my aching shoulder. If you need a good adjustment with excellent results GO! Brain is also great. The doctors passion for their work shows! read more

Dr. Simpson is amazing! He really cares about his patients and listens to their needs. I've been seeing him over the last year and feel a significant improvement in my shoulder stability and lower back pain. 10/10 would highly recommend seeing Dr. Simpson. read more

Amazing Chiropractor! Dr. Heller makes you comfortable and his place is immaculate! The staff is welcoming. Dr. Heller really cares about your well-being and I look forward to my visits. My first visit to this office was in 2008. I recently started seeing Dr. Heller because of some lower back pain and sciatica issues. Although his office is in Costa Mesa and there's a dozen of chiropractors just walking distance from my house, I'm willing to drive from Carson to get worked on by Dr. Heller. You can trust him! read more

I came back to this office last Wednesday October 16 due to a neck pain possible stiff neck and I was attended by Dr. Simpson. He was very good professional and completely fixed my problem right away. I also have a degenerative disc on my lower back that he adjusted as well. I highly recommend this office and most specially ask for Dr. Simpson. He is really good and will see him again next week for a follow up. read more

PLEASE BE AWARE AND CAREFUL!... when choosing a chiropractor. I came to see this Dr. (Tyler Simpson) with an initial lower right side pain. I chose him based on his "positive reviews and his so called experience on the Gonstead Method' NOT EXPERIENCED.. After much thought I found that unreal for not to have any negative reviews based on my experience. PLEASE BE AWARE. After my first partial adjustment visit' he began with my lower right and then adjusted my neck' and that was the failure. He did it wrong! I felt it when he did' it was done sloppy! Given no time to breathe or relax' and wow my next was injured. Ever since my first visit and my 2nd (last visit) I've had INTENSE upper back and left side now' PAIN. When I had none! I am extremely upset. I can't sleep nor carry anything on my shoulder (in this case my own purse) due to intense pain. I am not sure if his sloppy job was based on how much one pays or in general he takes his job lightly. I hope this review helps you when choosing a chiropractor. PLEASE be careful, our body is our temple and it's not a great feeling when an inexperience chiropractor injures it. read more

I have been receiving chiropractic care from Dr. Aimee Duarte for awhile now, and I can't say enough positive things about her and the treatment she provides. She is patient and actively listens to my concerns and needs. I am in my mid thirties, healthy, and have 5 children. With my busy schedule, I make time to see Dr. Aimee because I feel so much better after my treatments. Recently, I was experiencing numbness in my arm and hand and after she adjusted me and worked her magic, I felt better. The numbness is gone and I can continue to care for my family without disruption. I trust her with my health and that of my children. read more

Dr. Heller is the best chiropractor out there! I had severe back and neck issues that rendered me limited in mobility. I had seen various chiropractors with the same outcome (no change); however, during one of my first visits, Dr. Heller's adjustment gave me significant relief. I was no longer in pain and I've been seeing him since, along with my son - both of us for 21 years. That first adjustment changed my life. I was able to incorporate fitness back into my life and function normally. I could sleep comfortably and I had a smile on my face again. We've since moved and I make the drive b/c he is the best chiropractor around and I trust him implicitly. Highly recommend! Office staff is super nice, too. read more

Dr. Tyler is an outstanding, reliable, and caring Gonstead chiropractor. I was suffering from (sometimes multiple) weekly migraines when I researched and scheduled care with him. I can say that after 3 months of care with appointments every other week- the frequency of the migraines has significantly decreased to 1-sometimes 2 a month and the intensity of the migraines is now tolerable where as before I would be laid out unable to function for an entire day- multiple days a week. Healing takes time and I already see the fruit of Dr.Tyler treating me through gonstead technique. He also treats my mom who had several gnarly injuries when she came to him and my mom cannot stop raving about his care. Mama can now move her body daily w/out pain or discomfort which is huge! Dr.Tyler is our new family chiropractor and I'll never stop referring people to him bc of his excellent care and attention to detail. Thank you! read more

Seriously the best chiropractor I've been to! Dr. Mitchell genuinely cares about your overall health and targets your specific needs. She takes the time to teach you what is best to improve your body for the long run! She's also very trustworthy, personable and kind. I couldn't ask for a better chiropractor. read more

Dr. Simpson is great! I have had chronic low back pain for the last few years of my life and my old family chiro and primary doctors weren't helping. I was sent to Dr. Simpson by a friend and within one visit I was feeling better, and it's only progressed since then. Dr. Simpson is very thorough and good at what he does. I highly recommend him to all of my family, friends, and anyone looking for a Chiro that gets results! read more

As a medical professional myself I can attest to Dr Tyler Simpson's excellent chiropractic care. He takes the time to listen to you and asks questions to determine exactly where your area on pain is located. He focuses on what your concerns are and is very skilled at locating the origin of the problem. He takes his time and will use just enough pressure to release the joint or muscle. I recommend Dr. Simpson to anyone who is looking for a kind and skilled chiropractor. read more

Dr. Mitchell is thee absolute best. Kind, hospitable and extremely knowledgeable. I came in barely able to move my neck. I had to turn my body like batman in order to look around. Even after my first visit, i feel like a million bucks. She's been voted "rockstar doctor" 3 years in a row according to rockstar doctor magazine. that last part i can't prove but you could take my word for it. read more

I went in with a stiff neck. Had two adjustments in two days because pain got worse. By the third day I'm sitting in urgent care because I cannot move. I will never go back here! Dr. Simpson was nice but having him adjust me was a huge mistake. read more

Dr. Heller is both skilled and compassionate. He permanently fixed a horrendous neck problem I had through a series of precise adjustments. I read another review on him that said he had the "magic touch". I couldn't describe that any better. It amazes me how he can literally feel where the issues are, and knows exactly what to do to fix them. Separately I has some lower back issues, so naturally I went back to him with the same fantastic results. My highest recommendations. read more

I've seen several chiropractors in my day and Dr. Simpson is without a doubt at the top of the list. It's clear that he takes a lot of pride in his work and the care he provides to patients. He's incredibly thorough, and very specific and gentle with his adjustments. Dr. Simpson specifically practices the Gonstead technique and if you haven't seen a Gonstead chiropractor before, you need to! My low back flares up intermittently do to work and he's always able to figure out the problem and completely resolve the issue in a couple visits. read more

I have seen Dr Simpson for the past 2 weeks and my lower back pain is gone. I have never felt better and I'm back to my regular daily activities. Thankyou Dr Simpson!!!! read more
