Chiropractor in Oakland for lower back pain
I have been having lower back pain and it's been suggested to me that I try chiropractic treatment for it. I would like a recommendation
to someone in Oakland who is medically grounded and also works in a holistic way with patients.

She is in Albany, but my husband and I go from Oakland to see Sandra Waggener whenever we have issues with neck or back pain. She is terrific - careful, thoughtful, really smart and most of all, effective. She is definitely medically grounded - recommended my husband see an orthopedist for a recent shoulder injury rather than working on it. She was right - he needs surgery. Her phone number is 510 526 2567.
I went to Dr. James Huang for lower back issues and a pulled hip flexor and was happy with his services. He has an office in Oakland and Walnut Creek and splits his week between the two.

I've used Martinet Chiropractic. Dr Martinet uses a variety of modalities and has loads of experience.
Dr. Richard Burg at 6330 Telegraph is wonderful. My husband and I have been going to him for years, as needed. 510-601-6330. Brenda
Bruce Rizzo is by far one of the best chiropractor's in Oakland (and everywhere). He can look at how you stand, walk, move and know how to correct your posture, know where to work, etc. His office is at 63rd and Telegraph. Office number is: 601-6330.
Good luck, I hope you feel better soon.
Really like Delene Bivolcic on Park Blvd. She used to have an office on Telegraph at Alcatraz. She really listens and doesn't push to do anything (like x-rays) unless you agree. Her website http://enjoyvibranthealth.net/
Christoph Meuhlinghaus in Oakland (510) 326-0684. He is far and away the best. Also has a massage therapist in the office. Is on pill hill in Oakland. Very knowledgeable!
Laurie Klein at Back in Balance -- can't recommend her highly enough. Go, you will not be disappointed. She has worked with me over the past 12-14 years -- always with tremendous success and in a holistic, caring approach.
Sid Verma at Oakbay Chiropractic near Summit Hospital in Oakland is great. Combines gentle and effective adjustments with soft tissue work. Super nice and organized office staff. Monthly sessions with Dr. Verma are what keep me going after decades of chronic low back and hip pain. (The other doctors in the practice are also really good - and they have fantastic massage therapists).

My wife has periodic back pain and goes to a wonderful physical therapist in Albany. Ellen DeNeef owns Arcus PT and her results are magical-can not praise her highly enough. I go to a different physical therapist for other issues and when she has problems with her body she goes to visit Ellen even though she (my PT) lives in Sonoma. Ellen's number is:510-913-0969. Definitely worth a visit.
Dr Ruch at the North Oakland Chiropractic Clinic is amazing. Specializing in injured, elderly and ligament lax folks, his style is very gentle but effective. I have Ehlers-Danlos and he's been a major help improving my health.
