After many years of working as an ER nurse, I developed poor posture, almost daily neck pain and headaches. I discovered the Joint when they first opened the San Marcos location and Dr. Sorenson along with weekly adjustments has completely relieved my pain and I very rarely have headaches anymore. Thank you to Dr. Sorenson at The Joint :)

I've been going to chiropractors for twenty years and the Joint for one year. The best about the Joint is you don't need an appointment and the wait time is very small. Also, the monthly plan makes it very affordable to go several times a month, something I couldn't afford before.

When I started working at The Joint, I had never been to a chiropractor before. I was really unsure what to expect at my first exam, but I knew that it was something I needed to experience so that I could inform patients what to expect when receiving ad adjustment. It turns out that chiropractic care is exactly what I've needed all along! I was in a car accident many years ago and I often experience pain in my left shoulder because of it. The pain was something I knew I would have to live with, however, I didn't know that chiropractic care could help. After my initial adjustment, I felt amazing! After 6 months, it has made a significant difference in how often I have pain. It barely bothers me anymore. I will never be without maintenance care because I know how much it helps. If I miss a week, I can totally tell. So I try to never miss a week!

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.

As with many of The Joint members, I attend more than one center; one near work and one closer to home. The and wait times are minimal and the attention to each persons needs is phenomenal. I have seen two doctors here on a regular basis and they are always willing to adjust their style of treatment to what works best for me. The staff is friendly and the adjustments have lead me to say, more than once, okay almost every time, " I am a whole new person from when I walked in." I look forward to my adjustments and feel better than I have in years. I sleep better because I am in less pain and often no pain.
