  • Top-rated patient feedback

    I feel better and train harder than ever before since I started visiting Dr. Stein on a weekly basis! I haven't experienced any injuries (training as much as 20 hours per week), and I've noticed significant improvements in my performance.

    - Lawrence R.

  • Rated five stars by a patient

    I have been going to Stein Chiropractic since 1993. Every few years my back would go out and I could barely get in a car. After 2 or 3 visits I was back to normal. Dr. Stein showed me exercises that helped me prevent the problem. It has been over 15 years since I have had a serious problem. I go regularly, do my exercises and have kept surfing and snowboarding into my mid 70's
