Its a little interesting how everyone in these 5-star reviews talks about awesome spine alignment that Riley has them thinking she does. Well.. not every normal person thinks, "Gee.. let me see my arm hurts, or my thigh has a strain; oh yeah it must be my spine". No!! I had a very very bad experience with this chiropractor. I went to her for my wrist pain. On the first visit about my wrist, she decided she must need my spines x-ray both upper and lower body. So I ask her well, is it something serious and she says to me immediately - "oh no, your wrist is probably a locally sprained bone or muscle pull". So then why the x-ray? She quickly tells me, "The x-ray will tell her if my spine is aligned well". Err.... thats not why I went to her though. This is when she starts talking about how she is a well practiced bio-physicist and that I have come to the right place because my spine is not well aligned. Hey... but what about my wrist?! Remember, I still have an aching wrist !! At this point, she corners me in a room and tell me it will cost me roughly about $2000 for 24 sessions, which she thinks is appropriate, to fix my spine. She basically bombards me with info about how she is best in dealing with spines and that my spine is the key to my happiness. Me still confused as !@#^ what that has to do with my wrist and she already starts walking me out with a 24 session schedule and an agreement to pay $2000 if my insurance doesnt cover her absurd treatment plan ("without cause"). I ended up loosing many night of sleep thinking about my spine and ended up going to a different chiropractor who fixed my wrist in just two visits. I made the biggest mistake going to her for my chiropractic needs. She is a fraud. It is disappointing how she frames so many people into thinking all their problems have to do with their spine and that they should pay her boat loads to get that fixed even though they might be genuinely suffering from something entirely disconnected. Dont go to her. Take a second opinion from another chiropractor and you will feel relieved that you saved yourself from being ripped off by this scam artist !!

I had really bad Beck pains starting this year of 2017. Ive never been to a Charopracter so I felt a little nervous. Dr. Riley not only helped me feel comfortable, but cured my neck pain within 3 visits. She started with x-rays and determined my spine was out of alignment. I have a total of about 24 visits and each time I come out feeling new. Of course you have to keep up with treatment yourself or else you wont help the process. She is also funny and talks to you the whole time to make you feel comfortable. I definitely recommend her as my neck is back to feeling 100%.

I came to see Dr. Riley after repeat injuries to my lower back. She was the first chiropractor that I had visited. She took the time to talk me the through the process and what to expect. After an assessment she outlined a treatment plan and gave me exercises to do in between visits. My visits have greatly reduced my pain and has helped me understand how to prevent further injury. I highly recommend her as she is patient, provides treatment options and has much experience and knowledge.

I was having a lot of pain between my shoulders and lower back due to sitting at work all day typing on a computer. I visited Dr. Riley and she did an outstanding job to adjust my lower and upper back! I feel great now with no pain at all! She is also one of the friendliest and nicest people Ive ever met. You feel completely comfortable in the office. I highly recommend her and will definitely be back if I need another adjustment! Thank you, Dr. Riley!

I have been coming to Dr. Rileys office for years for ongoing neck/shoulder issues. Its not one of those offices where patients are rushed through. At each of my visits, she takes the time to adjust my alignment and posture as well as tractioning and icing my neck. Her approach to chiropractic care (involving office visits and tractioning/stretching that I can do at home daily) has made a huge difference and Im feeling great!
