Dr. Grigoryan and the entire team at Uptown Wellness Center are absolute lifesavers! After my car accident left me with constant neck and back pain, headaches, and limited mobility, I was desperate for real relief. From the very first visit, Dr. Grigoryan listened carefully, explained everything clearly, and created a personalized treatment plan that actually worked. He's been treating me ever since, combining expert chiropractic adjustments, decompression therapy, and gentle techniques that have dramatically reduced my pain and helped me get my life back. I can finally sleep through the night, move without wincing, and even return to activities I thought were gone for good. What truly sets this place apart is the incredible staff--every single person is warm, professional, and genuinely cares. The front desk always greets me with a smile, the massage therapists are pure magic, and the whole office feels like a supportive family rather than just another medical clinic. They make every visit feel uplifting and hopeful. If you've been in an accident or are dealing with pain, do yourself a favor and see Dr. Grigoryan. He and his team don't just treat symptoms--they help you heal and feel like yourself again. I'm so grateful and I recommend them to everyone I know! Thank you, Dr. Grigoryan and Uptown Wellness--you've truly changed my life for the better! read more

So far so good I have more sessions to go but I'm so happy thus far I truly feel listened to and that hopefully the outcome is nothing but positive. read more

Best place to go for realignment of back or neck. Best decompression of neck and great doctor. Plus they give very good massages.

Uptown Wellness has been a life saver. This is a one stop shop: chiropractic,acupuncture, massage ...DrArno is wonderful. After years of chronic low back pain Dr.Arno has been so helpful to get me back to living my best life! read more

I'm a big fan of the spot. I'd been dealing with some major back pain for what seems like forever now. I contacted them and initially scheduled a session. Feel it is definitely going in the right direction now and I also want to say that they were really patient with my inquiries upon the initial consultation! read more

After dealing with persistent lower back pain and sciatica, I turned to Uptown Wellness Center for help. Dr. Arno suggested Spinal Decompression Therapy, and I'm so glad I tried it. The treatments were relaxing, non-invasive, and over time, I felt significant relief in my back and legs. What impressed me most was how the therapy not only reduced pain but also improved my mobility and overall comfort in daily life. The clinic is modern, welcoming, and the team truly cares about patient outcomes. They customize care to your specific condition and take the time to answer all questions. I highly recommend Uptown Wellness if you're looking for real, lasting results without surgery or medication. read more

Went in for shoulder pain . Did a few sessions in the Whittier office and pain went away. Great doctor, office is huge and I had one session with an instrument I only saw at his office . It sent some shockwaves into my shoulder and felt like a tingling feeling but afterwards my shoulder felt a lot better . Definitely would come back in the future if some new pain comes up. read more

Met with Dr. Arno and he was so kind and knowledgeable. Office staff were so welcoming and sweet. Would highly recommend!

Unfortunatly the customer service at this center is subpar and I do not recommend. I called to redeem a gift certificate that was very old and was told they would not honor it even though I was able to provide the name of the person who purchased it for me. They were able to verify she was in their system but not that she purchased anything. The reason given was it was from the previous owners and they could not verify the purchaser, the certificate etc. They claimed the previous owner stole certificates and they couldn't be sure. The person who purchased it for me even called and they were rude to her. I had to call at least 4 times over a month or two and no one called me back until I finally got the new owner?/or manager who also lacks customer service edicate. A gift certificate NEVER expires and it is unfortunate that for the sake of their reputation and good ethics they would choose to take this route over a measly few bucks. read more

Great customer service. Dr Arno is very compassionate. He listens to your concerns. He thinks out of the box. His staff is top notch.

Smart, personable, good listener. Dr Arno will help figure out what is going on and give you the tools to heal. In my case, an interview to figure where I hurt and how the pain has limited my mobility. Followed by an adjustment, that covers what was adjusted and exercises to improve outcome. He is realistic about the healing process. So I am not at all surprised I'm better but not 100%. He is one of those practitioners that I would follow if they move practices. I trust him. I respect him and appreciate his communication skills. As a healthcare provider myself I hold all caregivers to a higher standard. read more

Dr. Arno cares about the services he provides, he actually hears you out and has a conversation over what could be the causes of your issues. I've had treatments for different reasons over the last years (before Dr.Arno came to Toluca Lake). I used to be anxious about chiropractic treatments, even if my back was causing me pain for years, I let my anxiety get in the way. Now, with the help and results from Arno, I feel great and realized that I should have seek help long ago! So, if needed do take care of yourself by getting the help, especially from a friendly professional like Arno! read more

For the last 10 days I have been experiencing a huge amount of pain due to sciatica nerve concerns. My brother who had similar problems mentioned that he had used acupuncture to relieve his pain but I was skeptical. However, due to the pain I was willing to try anything. I went online and found a Groupon for 3 sessions. I decided to give it a go. On my first visit yesterday I felt immediate relief as Judy applied the needles while I sat. I can tell you that the needle pain is very minimal and the little discomfort you do feel is the tension of the points that are being applied. As I sat, Judy had me move my leg in various positions and it really did feel better. i was surprised! Then she had me stand up and walk for a little bit. I was hugely disappointed when the pain returned after about 5 minutes of standing. She continued to work on me and the pain did go down but was still present when I left. Judy told me to come the next day and the thought started to cross my mind, "how many times am I going to have to come back?" but since I had purchased 3 sessions I agreed. And thank GOD because after today's session I really did feel almost no pain. As I write this I had been taking muscle relaxers because without it I could not withstand the pain. Even sitting was uncomfortable and forget about sleeping. For almost 20 hours I have not taken a pill and I could barely feel any discomfort but no pain. I hope it stays this way. Judy suggested I come in every once in a while and allow the pressure to be relieved. I was skeptical but now I am a true believer. Thank goodness because living with pain is no way to live. Thanks Judy and the group at the Uptown Wellness Center. As for the facilities they are very clean and I was surprised how many people come in and out. There are other services that I plan to use such as the spinal decompression and maybe even a massage. i will keep you informed but don't suffer with pain. Come in and let them help you like they helped me. read more

Today was my first visit to Uptown Wellness Center and my massage therapist exceeded my expectations! I am definitely coming back here!!

My experience at this location has been fantastic. Mostly because my massage therapist Lore is amazing at what she does. she listens she address body your issues a true professional and cares about her customers. I loved the way she would target my muscular tightness. Good communication because she tries to explain that one or two sessions won't resolve your problems. The manager is fantastic too she went above and beyond to satisfy and take care of a client. She called me and offered me a great offer to continue my massage therapy. I wasn't impressed with the front desk girl, she needs more training when addressing customers needs. For example of someone is asking a question. Stop what your doing and look at them and address there questions. Your work will always be there multi tasking when speaking to customers is unprofessional. read more

I've been going to Uptown Wellness seeing Dr. Paredes for years. She's great! Well, recently she left to start her own practice elsewhere and when I called I wasn't aware of this, in fact I was never told this. I was told she was "on vacation" and they "weren't sure when she'd be back" when I asked to make an appointment in a week or two instead. I've heard from others that they were given different excuses for her not being there such as "she hurt herself". I was hurting and I went in to be treated by someone else. The treatment was good, but why lie to your patients? When I went to book my follow-up and asked for an appointment once Dr. P was back they finally came clean and told me she was no longer with them. A quick google and I've found her new office and now have my follow-up back with her, but the deceit here is not an ok way to operate your business. UPDATED RESPONSE: Unfortunately your timeline doesn't line up with what I was told as I was given this information only yesterday when I made my appointment, which by your timeline of being told a few days ago, you would've already known, yet I was still told this, and only after I tried to schedule a next appointment, but wanted to wait for to be back for that appointment was I told today. I don't wish any harm to your business, but I am unhappy with the dishonesty. I would've left and followed Dr. P regardless because I like my doctor, and I understand you wanting to mitigate the loss of clients to your practice, but unfortunately this was not the way to do so. read more

Hey fellow readers, I want to write my updated review on the exceptional chiropractic services I received from Dr. Arno. After, a few months I have managed my back and knee pain like never before. Coming in for adjustments and paying attention to my body has really changed my life. Dr. Arno is super supportive and realistic about my pain. Everyone knows we all go in when we don't take care of ourselves or have an accident. I'm more conscious about my body in all my daily routines. I come in bi weekly or monthly depending how much I push my body or sitting for to long at work. I want to see if you are feeling your age than do yourself a favor and take care of yourself here. Before, it gets worse. Thanks Arno. read more

Been going to Uptown Wellness for some time now using both their massage and chiro services. My massage therapist, Jennifer, is very knowledgeable and always able to release all the tensions on my upper back. I always book a chiro treatment following the message session with Dr Ali, who is well experienced with his adjustment techniques. I just feel like a new person everytime walking out of the practice! I would totally recommend Uptown Wellness to anyone who seeks an exceptional chiropractic and massage services!! The only downside is that they do get busy so I always call a few days before to book an appointment. read more

I was suffering with migraines and neck pain for weeks. I searched online for the closest chiro thinking that might bring me some relief BUT I realized that I could see an accupuncturist so I went in for treatment and met Kevin. Wow! Has my life forever changed! Kevin is absolutely gifted with a healing hand. He is careful and thorough. Exact!Just on my 1st visit alone I knew I had stumbled into something wonderful and I treasure it! I couldn't be any more grateful for having crossed paths with such a good Dr.! I have no more migraines!! If something is bothering me like a stiff neck- I go in with complaints and leave happy and at ease. Accupunture is the only treatment I welcome with open arms. Eastern medicine is golden! read more

Been here twice so far and they take good care of me. If you check in close to your appointment is always good you don't have to wait much. Their service is great, the receptionist at front are amazing very friendly! Yessica goes above and beyond. I come here for a deep tissue massage with Daisy she knows what she's doing always feeling great after. Definitely coming back for more read more

Worse place...pack a lunch cause the walk ins are very disorganized..so save your money and time and find some where else

The clinical equivalent of factory farming. During my first visit the exasperated chiropractor said they didn't have time for a full evaluation, that it was the end of the day and they were running behind. Understandable if I had been late, but I was on time, and I was in pain, so I was hoping to receive better care. I find the person who works the front desk to be terse toward the clients, and rude to the other workers. I will not be returning, and do not recommend this Wellness Center if you have an opportunity to seek healthcare elsewhere. read more

When severe pain strikes me I come here first to check it out and to see if it is anything serious. I have constant back issues/problems that arise all the time which can be a really sad and depressing road to be going on. When being so young and having these issues you really don't want to listen to many doctors and pain medication seems really costly price. My main option for myself is to try to make my life livable and happy! Uptown Wellness Center has many options for making that come true. I have been a patient with them for years and feel the need to talk about them more. Friendly staff and easy appointments make me feel like they do care about my problems and that they are willing to help! read more

Dr. Urteaga (My chiropractor) is very awesome at what he does. He's able to address each and every issue that you explain to him. He is able to help me improve my pain levels with both my wrist, shoulder, and back. He is able to crack and move the bones back into place. Also giving directions with minimal exercises and understands the soreness that comes with minimal exercises as well when other physicians did not understand at times. My Insurance covers 30 visits out of a year with $10 copays. I was lucky enough to be informed by a friend of mine in regards to these benefits. There's a lot of patients that comes to this visit; however, you still get inside fairly on time within 10-15 minutes to see the chiropractor. Appointments usually are 40-60 minutes depending on what they're correcting. Scheduling visits isn't too difficult and there's plenty of time to schedule visits whenever you need to schedule a visit. Parking is on the backside of the building up the mini hill. read more

Finding a professional, caring chiropractor that actually give you results to relief you from pain is a GEM! I always had great experiences with Dr.Arno. He listen carefull, is patient and has help me a lot. I had a couple treatments with him before he moved into this location and even is a bit of a drive for me, I will gladly drive for my appointments! Thank YOU again! read more

My first time having an hour massage in Uptown Wellness Center with Maribel is just a great experience. The staff is very friendly and they have the best customer service. Very Clean office too. Dr. Josh is just accommodating and very friendly and explains everything very thoroughly. I highly recommend this Chiropractor. read more

It is very rare to see talented Chiropractors come to you. Sometimes, I am unable to get up from the bed! Arno always come prepared and on time. Arno is not only professional Chiropractor but also very talented. He can detect where the issue is and and concentrate to fix it. I have upper and lower back issues for years and he has been helping me recover. After multiple sessions I can truly feel the difference. Every each visit I feel like a new person, adjusted with no back pain! Try him for first time and you will be hooked. read more

I started here at uptown wellness about 2 months ago... I started with adjustments & massage.. Dr Ali is amazing and I always feel so much better when I leave.. Recently I started fertility acupuncture with Judy... all I got to say is she has an amazing hand and I hardly feel the needles. I have yet to be pregnant but the relaxation I get while I'm needled and when I leave is amazzzing!!! Judy definitely knows what she's doing. I am now addicted to accu.. it helps me relax and feel focused when I leave... I'll keep u up to date of the day I find out I'm pregnant read more

So being the broke college student that I am, I decided to purchase their $30 groupon for a deep tissue massage. I called to make appointment and got scheduled in for later that day (great!). Reading past reviews, I arrived a little early to do the paperwork so it wouldn't cut from my massage time, but it didn't make a difference, the massage was still only 50 min. It's important to note that the receptionist and masseuse were very friendly. The room however was kind of small and unwelcoming (see picture). There were also multiple times where my masseuse would sit on the rolling chair while massaging me (that was a first). The massage itself was pretty mediocre at best...no rhythm, form, she used only one hand for most of it (might have been texting), used lotion like a gazillion times because it would only last like 10 seconds, moved around me in a rolling chair which was pretty loud...just an overall poor massage experience. I may have just had a poor experience, but I do not think I will be coming back to this location, even with their coupon. As a side note: Parking was pretty difficult to pull into, but that's not their fault, just another hassle. read more

Best facility and customer service experience ever!!!! Everyone here is so kind and understanding very knowledgeable. I will definitely be coming for an adjustment soon. read more

Had the best care from chiropractors, acupuncture and amazing massages ! Feeling so much better definitely will recommend to family & friends read more

Dr. Ali is the best doctor they've had. I schedule the 9am appointment because of work. Often, like today, I am not seen on time. I have the first appointment and the doctor is late. Today I wasn't seen until 9:30. I'd like to say this is the first time it's happened, but it's becoming the norm. Time to find another chiropractor. BTW, the massage and acupuncture are great!!! read more

Dr. Paredes has been treating me since 2008, due to chronic back issues. If you're looking for a chiropractor, look no further!! She's a breath of fresh air. I always look forward to seeing her. I highly recommend Dr. P. I send all my family and friends to her when they have an musculoskeletal issues. Dr. P has warm healing hands. She has excellent bedside manner. She's attentive, caring, compassionate, and is there to help me reach my optimal health goals. I am looking forward to having her treat me when I become pregnant, and eventually treating my little ones. read more

I've been coming here for a little while, Miss Judy has helped me tremendously with my neck pain, wrist pain, and back pain. When I'm driving me with my session, my body and mind are at peace, I walk away pain free. This place is my zen. I'm grateful for Judy and the staff. You are treated good here. I recommend you give them a try. read more

I have been much delayed in my review of Uptown Wellness Center and my visits with Dr. Paredes. We came here for infant craniosacral therapy. We had our 6 week old daughter's tongue and lip ties revised and they strongly suggested this to assist with her learning how to nurse properly. Dr. Paredes was just wonderful. We found out that she had a bit of tightness along one side of her neck as well. Dr. Paredes was so gentle with her and took the time to work with where she was at. At times, doing some therapy while I was holding her and others, lying on the table. I credit a large part of my being able to have a successful breastfeeding relationship with my baby to this therapy and Dr. Parede's work. She even taught me gentle ways to promote good bowel movements and gave me ideas for different types of tummy time. Best side effect of these sessions was great poops and that she slept so well that night. Dr. Paredes truly is patient focused. I would go to see her in a heartbeat again. read more

Dr. Arno always does an amazing job. He is very patient and gets to the bottom of the issues without wasting any time. You get real results! I highly recommend his chiropractic services. It has made a remarkable difference in my life. read more

Dr. Arno was very conscious of my problems and used unique techniques to solve them. I just started going, but I'm excited to have found him... Especially since his office is right by Warner Brothers and open till 8 pm! His office is very warm and has a wonderful feeling to it :) read more

I purchased some massage therapy session which were great! Then I was convinced to purchase some chiropractic session. The chiropractor is a joke. Probably spends 5-10 min per patient, says his script which you can hear is the same for each patient being serviced before you, and then just puts you on a muscle stimulator or rolling table. States he will call back in a month to follow up and see how your doing, never does. After watching some other chiropractors online and how they conduct their sessions... this chiropractor seems to just knock out the appointment/visit as fast as he can and then onto the next one. Doesn't seem to really work on the patient or target specifics. just a quick general adjustment and off to the next patient. read more

Disorganized and irresponsible front desk. I called inquiring about acupuncture services. I wanted to make sure my insurance was taken at this location as well as wanting to know what type of coverage and payments I was expecting to make before going in. It has now been 3 weeks of me trying to follow up on the information as they keep loosing my personal information, giving information for other services I did not request and they have never contacted me as they kept saying they would. They should be more responsible with sensitive customer information and follow up on a timely manner. Due to covid shutdowns good customer service is more important than ever for ensure customer safety and comfort in order for businesses and to survive. I am extremely disappointed. read more
