I will say first and foremost... I was not a believer in Chiropractic care. However, Dr. John and Dr. Allison have created a great experience at Thrive Chiropractic. They have a very scientific approach to chiropractic care which is a relief, for me, being a member of the health industry: it is a very clean cut approach that I understand well. I went in because I had a horrible crick in my neck from being maneuvered on a bed while I was asleep because I snore and my girlfriend couldnt deal with it. Also, Ive had upper back trouble ever since a rowing injury back in high school (Im in my late 20s now) that has affected my ability to be comfortable driving long distances, working out, and just life in general. Dr. Allison took me in and did some scans and range of motion checks to see exactly how "out of wack" I was. After some time they were finished and in a few days I came back to see the results, according to their technology, I was in bad shape from years of trauma... which isnt untrue. They suggested that I take a more ballistic approach with treatment which means I should have 2-3 sessions per week for a minimum of 3 months or I take it slow and get better slow. I took the ballistic approach. I came in 3 times a week for about 2 months. I must mention that I was receiving Graston from Dr. John once a week during that time.Graston Technique is an innovative, evidence-based form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that enables clinicians to detect and effectively break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions, as well as maintain optimal range of motion. After that period of time I was already noticing changes in my range of motion and recovery. I no longer had pain from driving in my car for long periods of time, I was no longer uncomfortable from certain range of motion exercises and lifts that use to plague my upper back trauma, and even my girlfriend noticed the bones in my neck seemed to be less protrusive upon putting her hand the back of my neck in passing. So the evidence is clear! Thrive Chiropractic does lead to thriving. I highly recommend going in anytime you have the chance and experience recovery the way I got to. Thank you Dr. John and Dr. Allison for taking care of me. ...Now I just have to stop snoring...

UPDATED Update to my review. Dr. John personally called me from his own cell phone to apologize for the mix up and explained the staffing situation that caused the confusion and misunderstanding. The fact that he called personally and didnt have a staff member call for him shows his thrive to provide excellent customer service. I will be returning as soon as I can to continue with my treatment.  Thank you again Dr. John. Well Dr. John seemed great I went on Thursday FOR FIRST TIME WITH AN APPOINTMENT and I wss seen no issues great visit. Dr. Says come back Sat. from 0830-1000 so i show up today at at 0835 walk up and sau hi i was told on thursday after my appointment to come back today she says ok have a seat. No problem i do 6-8 people that had been therr before i was go to the back and new people kept walking in and signing into the ipad after 3 people that arrived after I did got called back I ask the young lady so was I suppose to sign in or something? She says no only after your 2nd visit I say ok thank you and sit back down 2 more people get called back now its 0915 and they came in well after me so I get up and ask how much longer the last 4 people got here after i did. By this time i was therr before everyone in that place besides staff. She says oh your next. Ok I wait then she calls 2 more people and I was not one of them so I just walked away without expressing my feelings towards the front desk staff. Not Dr fault but I guess its best if you make an appointment they should tell you that. Wasted my time.

This couple saved my life twice. When I met Dr. Allision at a women group meeting I wasnt going to approach her, but she gave such a dynamic presentation about adjusting the body to keep the organs joints, and organs flowing scared me to death. She meant how not keeping the body lined up and signals turned on can cause more problems to the body then you could ever imagine. I knew my signals in the body was diming my mom, and I needed our signals turned on so we made an appointment. From that appointment our signals have never turned off. They did a free consultation tell you what you need, and how long the chiro service your body will need until you are in maintence. Ive been with this couple for 3+ yrs and the dynamic duo are team players, and work hard to make sure their clients are satisfied. I see both Drs and they both do a fantastic job. I feel like part of the family now this is how they make you feel, and the atmosphere is very positive you are in, and they dont waste you time. I would recommend them to anyone looking for sports, rehab chiro or any other service. Give them a call they have more service information to provide. Thanks so much for your healing chiro service cant wait for my next adjusting..Hugggggs Cheers!!! Cortina

This review is long overdue. I have been coming to Thrive to visit with Dr. Allison and John for almost two years now. There are very knowledgable of their practice and always continuing to learn. They also have a history with aiding the community in health education for free. The two and their staff and very welcoming and are attentive to your needs and questions. I originally came to Thrive after being recommended for help with shoulder pain that bugged me during my Crossfit workouts that my general practitioner/pts couldnt really help with. We tried everything from regular adjustments to even the graston method. Turns out that I did quite a bit of damage growing up and competing in gymnastics. All in all, I feel like a brand new person every time I get adjusted and can definitely tell the difference when I havent been in weeks. I highly recommend Thrive and couldnt imagine a life with out this family! P.S. Their posted hours actually dont include the break that they have between 1 and 3 pm on weekdays.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! First of all, Dr John and Dr Allison are incredible people who are extremely genuine and passionate about their practice and helping people get out of pain, naturally. I have been going pretty consistently for the last 5 months and no longer suffer from back spasms or neck issues. Thrive offers so much more than adjustments, they also provide wellness and nutritional advice, cleanses, supplements, etc... all with no pressure, just simple professional medical advice. They genuinely want to help you feel your best. Even better is you dont have to make appointments ! You just walk right in and Ive never waited more than a couple minutes. With their guidance, Ive taken the path to taking better care of my body and since Ive started going to Thrive, I not only healed my back, but Ive lost 20 lbs and cut my bad cholesterol in half. I truly believe Dr John and Dr Allison have helped guide me on this journey to better health and I feel better than ever and am forever grateful!
