I've had it for the past few years, and seen multiple chiropractors which gave me a variety of diagnosis but no success fixing it. I recently started training for a marathon so the injury became a serious problem.

I visited ProActive Chiropractic and saw Dr. Cohen. He identified that the pain was due to a rib that was out of alignment. He adjusted my rib and provided a few exercises that helped immediately!

My last few appointments have been with Dr. Chu since Dr. Cohen was booked. I've continued to get better under the care of Dr. Chu. She's a great adjuster and very knowledgeable. I'm finally back to running with no pain! read less

However, after seeing multiple great reviews about Proactive, I decided to give it a shot. I can happily say that they've made me feel much better already after a few visits!

The entire staff is very kind and makes you feel at home. They also make it a point to help you understand what's going on with your body and how you can relieve aches and pains on your own. Highly recommend! read less

I came in with TMJ problems and headaches, in which she used a technique called Craniosacral that helped alleviate my pain and headaches. I have also played volleyball and basketball for many years now and she was able to address any mechanical dysfunction and acute issues I was dealing with. Thank to Dr. Chu I have remained injury free and have seen improvements in my performance on the court. She cares a lot about her patients, she is personable, and an amazing adjustor. I look forward to every visit with her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for chiropractic care. read less

Cohen for a shoulder issue and I was blown away. His knowledge of human anatomy is unparalleled and, although it was pretty freaky when he demonstrated how body responds to certain trigger points, I was blown away by the effectiveness of his treatments.

5 treatments in, I have made significant improvements on my shoulder health AND he has made my sleep quality so much better by treating the muscles in my jaw.

He is also a kind human being and made it easy for me to share my story.

So basically he is an utterly knowledgeable man-witch.

Can't recommend enough! read less

I always thought chiropractors would focus on the back but I like the holistic approach the doctors at ProActive take.
I saw Dr.Chu for my initial assessment and she walked me through the process and would work on each area of the body and see what I may need help on. My foot pain is what we've decided to work on, the initial appointment is really helpful to better understand what the body might need help with, she will adjust each area and move on if those areas, should,back, etc. don't need any help. She gave me exercises and goals to work on for the following sessions.
The second session was more focused on targeting my foot and adjustments needed. I was able to work on the exercises she provided and worked building balance and foot strength in yoga as well. After her adjustments in the first and second session I could feel improvement in my foot pain and can tell the adjustments and exercises are making a difference.
I recommend Dr.Chu and ProActive for anyone with pain or stiffness, it's been helpful to work on my foot while training for my next race.

Their office also has informative sessions every 6 weeks or so on taking care of various areas of the body which I thought was a nice plus, if you bring a friend those sessions are free! read less

I've been a patient for the past year and a half, and, as I've told them, labeling their office as simply a "Chiropractic office" is almost an oversimplification of the service they provide.

I've seen several Chiropractors over the years, and the ProActive team do so much more than just simple adjustments and back-cracks.

I'm an active guy. I used to play professional basketball and now I run marathons. I take my recovery and my health seriously. Although I was really interested in the recovery tools they have at their disposal (muscle testing, Graston Technique, cupping, Normatec), I actually originally came to ProActive to help with my stress and anxiety.

Releasing tension in my body that was caused from years of stress and wear-and-tear has been a game changer for me. I'm sleeping better, I'm in the best shape of my life, and I'm just happier, in general. Working with the ProActive team has been a big part of that. read less

Dr. Chu is a miracle healer, I feel like a new person, the pain I had in my neck, shoulders, and my bottom all disappeared after my session.
Nancy works her magic with a very cool mix of Chiropractic, Trigger Points, Kinesiology Techniques.
My iliac crest was very tight, (its a tendon), it's painful to stretch, Nancy relived my Iliac, with lots of laughter, I laughed into the intense pain 😉 Nancy is very charming and down to earth, she makes you feel at ease instantly, and she gets the job done, she is small, but a powerhouse.
I went in a foot short than when I came out, I had ridden 100 miles last weekend, akes in my bones, my deep tissues, and tendons all got released, so much so that when I finally stood up from the bench, my bra was undone 😉 bravo Dr, Chu...
Why live with pain in your body, when you can get relief in one visit and live your life pain free-with a visit to ProActive Chiropractic, I highly recommend Dr. Nancy Chu read less
