I met Dr. Manish Sojitra while I was driving by on my way home one day and decided to stop in. Over the years as a runner I have sustained many injuries but none worse that my lower back issues. It seemed that most doctors could tell me what the problem was but never fix it. Their approach was simple. Make adjustments, crack the back and that should do it. One chiropractor was basically a production line or like eating at Golden Coral. In other words the more he served the more he made. Thats how he was able to have a lower price because he barely spent 10 minutes with each patient. The second chiropractor I went to actually told me exactly what my issue was and promptly forgot it one of my visits. He also told me I was cured and cut me loose. Amazing! Totally fed up I was about to give up when I stopped in Serene Chiropractic. Not only did he tell me what was the issue was but spent a lot of time with me and recommended strength training and stretching. He informed me that my spine and hip would not stay in place if I didnt stretch to loosen the muscle and strengthen the weaker side. I was amazed at the amount of time he spent with me and not push me through like cattle. Over the weeks he has spent with me this attention to detail has not changed. Serene Chiropractic & Physical Therapy offers a lot more than other places Ive been and really invests in the necessary time and equipment to serve his patients. My favorite is the machine I call the rack which relieves the pressure on my spine. But most important of all he cares and takes the time with his patients. Im currently still a work in progress but getting better every day. If I do my part and listen to what he tells me do outside of treatment on a regular basis I will see a vast improvement and I already have. I will continue to see him for maintenance in the future. Strongly recommend Serene Chiropractic.

I have not had many experiences with this type of care. But, Dr. Manish talked to me in the manner that a used car salesman would, explaining that I needed all the treatments they could offer including massages, chiropractic care, and even acupuncture. He was excited that my insurance covered 90% of the care once we got through the deductible and was interested in burning through the $500 deductible as fast as possible (3 sessions if I recall correctly). To be clear I am in very good physical shape and only came in due to some mild pain in my forearms, elbows, and wrists. I asked for a deep tissue massage of my arms due to tightness from rock climbing and instead received an hour which focused on my shoulders and back. Then, he adjusted my back and neck... which I did not want nor needed in my opinion, which left my back with an uncomfortable feeling the next day that I did not have before. (This was not from the massage as I have and understand that soreness) In closing, I have a degree in biomedical engineering and am well versed in biomechanics and physiology. Admittedly, I was and remain highly skeptical of therapy that is not well quantified by science (chiropractic and acupuncture). But, I was displeased with his attitude to to fix problems I did not have such as my back. I intend to try out other places until I find someone who is interested in what my problem is and how to fix it as completely and permanently as possible through targeted care and education on maintenance. He showed me a new forearm stretch right before I left that I like and will use. (This is why 2 stars)

I had a wonderful experience at Serene Chiropractic. I am a very active individual an avid runner. I have a lower back issue and I have been at numerous physical therapy locations, all corporate locations. I aggravated my back in early September and reached out to Dr. Sojitra. He was able to get me in that day! He took the time to make sure I understood what services he offered and what a typical situation like mine would entail. At no point did I ever feel rushed or pushed into a service. Throughout my therapy process I progressed positively and felt I was genuinely cared far. It is obvious Dr. Sojitra cares about all his patients and their road to recover. When I was able to finally participate in more aggressive physical therapy I felt as if I had a personal trainer. Dr. Sojitra new I was active prior to the injury and pushed me during the therapy process so I could return to that level. Surgery was not an option I wanted to consider, I also dont feel shots would be beneficial for me. Dr. Sojitra and his staff cared for me to ensure I was able to return the active life prior to the injury, a bit over 3 months and I am almost as active as I was prior with no pain or discomfort. My injury was of moderate severity and I will always need to be careful, but his services and care have allowed me to retain my active lifestyle.

Serene Chiropractic has been a life saver for me. I have suffered from bad headaches for over 20 years. Ive been to numerous doctors and they just give me meds that work for awhile then stop. Come to find out headaches are related to your neck which a chiropractor can work on. They gave me hope where there was none before. I figured I would suffer from headaches for the rest of my life but since going to Serene Chiropractic my headaches are becoming less frequent and less severe. What theyre doing is helping and thats wonderful. The staff at Serene Chiropractic are super friendly and knowledgeable. When you go there you dont feel like youre at a doctors office. They make you feel welcome. The environment is very laid back and they are very flexible. I would recommend Serene Chiropractic to anyone, whether you have issues or not. Its at least worth getting an exam to see if theres anything they can do for you. Who knows, maybe they can give you newfound hope too!

In todays world it is extremely rare to find a physician that takes time to talk to his patients about their ailments, their lifestyle, and what could be done to improve their general health. If you are looking for a holistic approach, a physician that will guide you on your exercise regiment, on how to improve your diet, who will offer a wide range of services from massages, acupuncture and bone alignment, Dr Manish is your guy. I thank him for helping me achieve huge improvement to my health. He has gone above and beyond by even offering discounts when I needed it. So if you dont like the feeling of going through a conveyer belt in a mass production factory that we usually get at doctors offices nowadays, go see Dr. Manish.

I highly recommend Oleg for successfully getting rid of pain in several different areas of my body through acupuncture! Oleg first treated my knee pain several years ago. The next year I had shoulder pain that he also treated successfully. The next year I had back pain that he cured. After not having any pain issues for a year, I just started treatment with Oleg for hip and elbow pain. I am confident that after several sessions my pain will be gone. Oleg also gives lots of good advice about things to do to prevent pain come from coming back in the areas of the body that hes treated. Oleg and Dr. Sojitra are very friendly, easy to talk to and good listeners. I highly recommend them.
