I have been adjusted by Dr. Melissa Crago for about six months now and Im super pleased with the results. I am a massage therapist by trade and I play capoeira, which is a very intense marital art that puts extreme force, torsion and pressure on the spine. I had taken some hard falls on my sacrum and was trying for months to relieve the subsequent back pain- so I got lots of massages, took Chinese herbs etc... But not until I was adjusted by Dr. Melissa Crago, did I begin to feel better. That evening, I was surprised how pain free I felt. The next morning I was incredulous at the amount of pain-free movement I was able to do. I was hooked. Dr. Melissa has been a god-send. Not only is she an expert chiropractor, she is also a capoerista, so she gets it! She understands what athletes put their bodies through and she knows exactly how to help them maintain a healthy spine/nervous system while continuing their high-intensity life styles. Thanks to Dr. Melissa Crago, I didnt have to give up training the martial art I love so much and I can continue to massage my clients pain-free. I have seen other chiropractors before and since Dr. Crago, those visits just confirm that Dr. Melissa Crago is the best, she uses many muscle and nerve tests to figure out what is going on with me each time I come in. She listens to what is bothering me, where I have discomfort and she thoughtfully and gently addresses the problem with care and strategy. Ive encouraged my wife and many of my clients to go see Dr. Crago. Dr. Crago does not take insurance but she is very well worth it and has packages and deals too.

What a difference working with Dr. Melissa has made to my general outlook on life and my physical, emotional, and mental well-being. 45 years of sitting hours on end as a court reporter had ruined my posture and my back. I had surgery in 2012 to cure chronic sciatica. While the surgery ended the chronic pain, I was left with painful, debilitating muscle spasms and bouts of Impaired mobility. I went to work as an assistant to Dr. Melissa in March of 2015 and was immediately impressed by her positive mental attitude and her demeanor, the light and love and caring she showed both to her patients and to those who assisted her. I began chiropractic treatment shortly after my employment started; and I have less back pain, less strain on my neck and extremities; and I look forward to the days I go to work, knowing the wonderful patients I meet are getting relief and that I am assisting Dr. Magic Fingers help others feel better. I used to say retirement was the job Id spent years training for. Now I believe it was just waiting to be a member of the Life Chiropractic team.

I rarely take the time to write a review but Life Chiropractic and Dr. Melissa Crago definitely deserve this time. I have had only positive experiences here since I started my sessions about 4 months ago. First of all Dr Melissa Crago is incredibly knowledgable, positive and easy going. Its a pleasure to talk to her and discuss physical issues and she has a great understanding of the body and how to reestablish alignment and balance. Second, the studio is super clean and the staff working with her is extremely polite, accommodating and pleasant in every interaction. Ive been late to many appointments and it has never been a problem, they always accommodated my fast changing schedule and I never had to skip an appointment even when I was very late. I would recommend Dr. Crago and this studio to anyone looking to improve their physical abilities, get safe adjustments to reestablish balance or discuss problems with their body in a safe and pleasant environment.

I have had experience with chiropractic care for over 25 years. Most recently, I have been dealing with severe knee pain related to loss of cartilage, due to aging and arthritis. Other chiropractors have been somewhat helpful, but being cared for by Dr. Melissa is a whole different level of experience. Her range and depth of knowledge of a variety of techniques allows her to provide care for all kinds of issues, and she has been able to provide relief for my excruciating pain. Her compassion and caring come through strongly. She listens to what is going on with you each time she sees you. Her touch is gentle, and yet strong, and her adjustments are really effective. Her commitment to educating her patients, as well as caring for them, allows people to understand the value and importance of regular chiropractic care for optimal health. She is the best chiropractor I have ever had.

Dr. Melissa Crago is great at what she does. She is kind and smart, and she also is able to hone in on the problem areas quickly. I have some back and neck pain from a variety of accidents over the years, and after an adjustment my body moves so much easier and more freely, and I can literally feel the blood return to my head (and most importantly my brain!) after she clears the mis-alignments in my neck and upper back. She covers her bases with x-rays and a spine scan that helps you see just where the problem areas are. The office is relaxing and pleasant, and so is her staff.

Ive been seeing Dr. Melissa Crago for a few months now and I can say with confidence that she is a gifted chiropractor! Her adjustments are precise and she has a keen ability to meet you where you are every time you step into her clean and cozy office. I was suffering from a "locked up sacrum" and after just my first adjustment, I was walking with much more ease and much less pain. Im looking forward to continuing to find more ease in my body under Dr. Cragos skilled care. If youre considering chiropractic treatment, visiting Life Chiropractic would be a wise decision.

Dr. Melissa is wonderful. Ive been to many different chiropractors over the years and find Dr. Crago to be exceptional in many ways - shes obviously passionate about her practice, she uses up to date technology to help diagnose the issues, she doesnt stick you on a machine for half an hour while shes dealing with 4 other patients, shes a very good communicator, she exudes a sense of loving kindness, and, finally, shes super efficient. Im in and out of her office in, literally, a few minutes! Its actually delightful.

I had an amazing treatment from Melissa last week. I have been having persistent back issues since early in my pregnancy. Now 5 months postpartum, I have still been in a lot of pain. Melissa worked on a variety of my symptoms with adjustments, muscle releasing + also gave me tons of great exercises + advice for longer-term rehabilitation. She is SUPER knowledgeable. I wish I lived in the Bay Area + could see her on a regular basis. I have no doubt in my mind I would be back to a pain-free + strong body.

Dr. Melissa is Amazing! I have literately barley been able to make it up the flight of stairs to her office and after an adjustment I skip down the stairs. Dr. Melissa is totally in-tune with how the the body functions and heals. She sets up a practical treatment plan that is effective for your level of activity. Ive found her clam and easy going manor relaxing, helping me to feel at easy while being adjusted. I have recommended her to several of my friends.
