Dr. Olsen has been wonderful to work with. I started seeing him about 4 months ago. I had a gallstone attack and my regular doctor and the gastroenterologist I was referred to werent interested in anything other than removing my gallbladder - they didnt want to find out why it was happening or explore other treatments. I was referred to Dr. Olsen by a friend/co-worker after he and his wife had seen good results. Dr. Olsens approach made much more sense for my situation. He checked my whole body (not just my gallbladder as the other docs had). We figured out that I had leaky gut and particles/toxins were filtering through my blood to my brain and liver causing several problems. My adrenals and thyroid were also under-performing and my body was struggling to maintain normal blood sugar levels. All of that explained my exhaustion, foggy brain, anxiety attacks, and generally not feeling like myself. Dr. Olsen started me out not eating sugar, wheat, and anything else that metabolized quickly into sugar (starches, etc.) I pretty quickly saw improvements with my blood sugar and energy levels. Dr. Olsen also very carefully recommended supplements and those have varied as Ive been making progress. Weve been through a round of cleansing to flush out toxins in my body. My brain fog is all gone now. I generally have much more energy. I still have stress from work but the anxiety is mostly gone. Were still working on clearing up my liver that seems to be working through some inflammation but Im confident its only a matter of time before thats solved too. Dr. Olsen is great to work with and is very approachable.This route of treatment isnt exactly typical so I want to understand how and why its all working. Dr. Olsen takes the time answer all of my many questions during appointments and even after. Tara, in the office, is also wonderful. Shes such a happy, positive person and always has a smile to share with whoever walks in. Shes also helpful in figuring out billing and insurance questions.

Dr. Olsen is much more than an incredible Chiropractor. He is an investigator, internal detective, and confidant. He has found things wrong with me that no other doctor has, diagnosed me in ways that I knew were issues but not for other doctors. Like my thyroid for instance. His response? "Sierra, we are going to find out what is affecting your thyroid." I like that. Thats what I want to hear. Not, "oh, well, youre still considered normal," or, "well just prescribe you something." He is a true believer in health and wellness and believes it for you and wants it for you. Also, to quickly touch on him being an incredible chiropractor, I have seen many, however, this is the first time in my life where I have felt NO pain. I have forgotten what this feels like. I could cry. He has fixed my back and neck and is also genuinely concerned with my internal and emotional health. Hes the whole package! Dr. Olsen also uses alternative medicines, which I am a true believer in. Natural and healthy for you. He is extremely thorough, intelligent, and he also makes it a priority for you to be educated as well. So much so, I have felt for lack of a better word, safe. Even his receptionist, Eric is incredible. Extreemly accommodating, welcoming and sweet. Hes the kind of receptionist you want to talk to. If you are looking for a complete re-haul of your body and health, if you want someone to think "outside of the box" and find some real solutions for you, then you must go see Dr. Olsen. He has changed my life!

Working with Dr. Olsen has been life-changing for me. He is very knowledgeable, kind and patient. Terra, in the front office is very professional and works well with the clients. I made the mistake of self-diagnosing symptoms. I altered my diet and took many supplements, but was missing crucial information. I did not know the proper supplements to take, in what dosage, and for how long. I also did not eliminate all the offending foods from my diet. With the proper knowledge from various tests, Dr. Olsen is treating my whole body, and it is healing itself. I am on the proper supplements, and have changed my diet. Plus i get Chiropractic treatments for compression in my neck, and go on his many neck treatment machines. They feel great. My neck is now staying in place and i am pain free. Many times i would wake up with a headache and my neck would be out. I went through many pillows thinking they were the problem, and when my old chiropractor would put my neck in, it would go back out the next day. I just thought that is the way it was. I am dealing with an auto-immune disorder, and I feel the inflammation in my body is gone. I am sleeping through the night, and the connective tissue issues are resolving. I truly can not say enough about how i am being helped back to health. I am very thankful I found Dr. Olsen. JJ Laguna Niguel, CA

For your overall health monitoring and wellness you would do yourself and your family a great service to see Dr. Olsen. Besides his kind and loving nature, he is faithfully committed to treating, monitoring and maintaining a healthy life to everyone he sees. Dr. Olsen has helped me in so many ways I cant even begin to tell you. But one very important thing would be I dont think Id be able to walk today without him. Even if you are not at that level of pain or hardship, your daily health is so important. Most people dont even realize they are feeling bad and there might be something wrong. This reminds me of the old saying: "If you throw a frog into boiling water, hed immediately jump out cause he knew there was danger. But if you put a frog in water and slowly heat it, he would never know there was anything wrong". As we get older, changes happen to our bodies. This needs to be monitored. And Dr. Olsen is the best person to see so you may live a long and healthy life. I wish everyone much healing energy.

After dealing with a pinch nerve in my neck and shoulder for a month, I decided to do something about it. I mentioned my discomfort to my neighbor and she suggested that I go see Dr. Olsen. I called Dr. Olsens office and was able to make an appointment for later that day. After reviewing my initial x-ray that determined that my neck was straight and that I had bone spurs on two of my cervical vertebrae, Dr. Olsen established a plan to correct my neck/spine alignment and reduce the pain and discomfort that I was experiencing. At my first appointment, Dr. Olsen took the time to listen to my symptoms, answer my questions, and begin evaluating my bodys response to movement. Once he senses a weakness in my movement, he pinpoints the exact area to treat and goes to work. I have been going to Dr. Olsen for the last six weeks and feel that I am on the road to recovery as my pain and discomfort are getting better each day.

Dr. Olsen is the Best!!! I have been to many Chiropractors in my life and he is so much more than just a Chiropractor. I have been seeing him now for six months. I have had chronic pain in my right leg for almost three years. Pain that made driving my car difficult. I was limited to 20 to 30 minutes. His approach is so different than anything else I have been through. I did the physical therapy thing and that did not bring relief. After seeing Dr. Olsen I can now drive without the worry that I will have to pull over because of the pain. He is a true wellness healer. In addition to treating my leg he has helped me with nutrition and in the last 4 months I have lost 37 pounds, so far. I just cant say enough about this man. If you are having any type of pain issue, nutrition issue, weight loss, etc. just give his office a call. Tara in the office is very sweet and helpful.
