Dr Marcy is a absolutely phenomenal. After enduring months of pain from my biceps tendonitis injury, Marcy did the magic for me. I had been to two other Physical Therapists and nothing seemed to fix my pain. Marcy worked on my injury for 3 weeks and I am almost back to normal. I cannot thank her enough and highly recommend her. Thank you Marcy
I have been going to Marcy regularly for massages for 6 months to deal with chronic pain. I can't recommend her highly enough! She is highly skilled and a magician at recognizing issues with my body and fixing them--I walk out every time feeling the best I've felt in a long time. She's also incredibly kind and easy to talk with.
Dr. Marcy is wonderful! I had never been to a chiropractor before so I was a little nervous, but Dr. Marcy made me feel very comfortable and answered all of my questions. She greatly helped my neck and shoulder pain and taught me helpful exercises/stretches to do at home. I highly recommend her for any sort of pain!
I love coming here and I love Dr. Marcy. I called her when I had majorly pulled my back from lifting and she was so accommodating. She has a holistic and gentle approach to healing: instead of focusing on one area of pain she focuses on also alleviating the cause of the pain. When I came in I didn't even realize how much of my body that I neglected and she was able to figure out and adjust so many things in one session, I felt so light and at ease. I definitely feel like she does everything she can to help anyone who walks into her office feel better. After our first session she equipped me with so many resources so I could do maintenance and my back and shoulder pain has gotten much more manageable. I love coming in to get tuned up and adjusted because I trust that after each session I'll leave feeling good. They do deep tissue work and massage which is something I never experienced before when getting chiropractic adjustments, and it makes so much of a difference when the pain and stiffness in the muscles are also acknowledged during visits.Highly recommend anyone who is curious about chiropractic/massage to go here.
Dr. Marcy is very knowledgeable and provides great corrective exercises for you to do at home. In our sessions we begin with adjustments and then deep tissue work. Very necessary if you spend all day at a desk! I would highly recommend her practice to anyone with neck and back stiffness/pain!
Marcy is the most caring, compassionate provider out there. She shows a tremendous amount of expertise with her various methods of care. All care is incredibly personalized and she really goes above and beyond. She has helped me through aches and pains and a full ACL tear, providing so much relief and incredible conversation. I trust her entirely and cannot recommend her enough!
My first appointment with Dr. Morgan Smith was incredible! He addressed my SI Joint pain with massage and adjustments. Then he showed me how to perform my own physical therapy routine that should effectively address the underlying causes of my particular issue. Wasn't pushy to schedule another appointment either; he is leaving that up to me based on how I feel moving forward. This man is a credit to his profession and I highly recommend!
I've been to tons of chiropractors, and I'm very picky. I love Dr. Smith, and my body feels better now than it has in years. Dr. Smith provides many modalities to help my recurring back and neck issues, plus he offers stretches and exercises to strengthen weak areas. Rather than wanting to just adjust me, he wants me to heal and get stronger so I don't need him as often. And...I do, indeed, schedule chiropractic appointments less often than I did in the past. I can't recommend Dr. Smith enough!
I’ve had a ton of general bodywork over the years. Dr Smith is far and away the best in my experience. You will not be disappointed!!
Really attentive to underlying patterns in the body and gives advice on how to correct them. Will really work with you to identify and heal root issues as opposed to just maintaining/managing pain. Very good bedside manner and funny as well. I was very scared to see a chiropractor as I don’t like to be touched and someone pushing and pulling and cracking all on my back? Uh, no thanks. But now going to see Morgan is one of the best parts of the month and a necessity for my self care.
Dr Smith is the best! He has very good detective-like instincts that get to the cause of some of my seemingly mysterious issues. I also appreciate a dose of his energy work before important presentations to have that clarity and alignment.
I’ve gone to Morgan for years in San Francisco. He’s an absolute master. Perfect combination of adjustments and massage therapy. He’s helped me rehabilitate injuries and keep my body moving well. Highly recommend!
Dr. Morgan is super knowledgeable in a variety of modalities and brings so much expertise to bear with each treatment. I think of him as a true healer; he works so hard and puts so much into each session to support my healing and overall health. I highly recommend his care and think he is also great value for the money!
Dr. Smith is the best chiropractor I’ve ever been to. He‘s become the one I‘m sending all my friends to when they struggle with any orthopedic issue. I initially saw him two years ago after a shoulder injury. He not only helped me to avoid a surgery - but thanks to a mix of massage techniques and PT, my shoulder is totally back to normal now.He is also a really kind and fun human being. Consider yourself lucky to have him in your neighborhood!
Morgan Smith is the best chiropractor I've seen, and I've been getting treated since I was 4. A lot of the issues that affect me are soft tissue related, and the time Dr. Smith takes to not only do manipulations, but to also do extensive soft tissue work is what really makes the difference. He is really phenomenal, and to top it all off, he is a great person and I really enjoy spending time with him.
I have never found anyone who can identify and understands muscular-skeletal issues as swiftly, confidently, and accurately as Morgan Smith. I am a distance and high-impact athlete prone to injury. Morgan has helped me recover from countless injuries, including chronic tendonitis + long-term concussion symptoms. Morgan Smith is a magician of the highest caliber. If you see an available time slot, book it before I do.
The best. Morgan and Marcy are both very good. They are experienced and really know what they are doing. At first I was hesitant but after the first session I trusted them and was able to relax. I highly recommend them
I came into this office not knowing what to expect, I recently had surgery done & was instructed to get post op lymphatic drainage massages. I went to a couple people I was referred to, and they just were super aggressive with what is supposed to be a very light touch massage. It hurt so badly to get them done, I was very much traumatized. So I did my research and came across this office. It’s close to my house so I figured why not! I came in for my initial appointment with Dr. Smith and he was super informative and was nothing but very light in touch (thank god!). And best of all I see a dramatic difference with my swelling and draining all because of being properly taken care of. I now come in weekly to get my massages done, and have also just been seen by the other Dr. her name is Marcy, she is so good at what she does too! I recommend them for your go to massages and chiropractic needs! Very punctual, neat & clean!
Unbelievable. Dr. Smith is hands down a master bodyworker. I just completed an initial 60 minute therapy session after suffering from a lower back injury from extraneous weightlifting. Immediately after one session, I can finally move and the pain has lifted. He is professional, caring and focused. He quickly identified the strained muscles and applied body work techniques. Looking forward to the next session in a few weeks. What an experience!
This was, simply put, the best massage and the best chiropractic appointment I have ever received. Dr. Avila is kind, perceptive, and absolutely expert in her applied understanding of the interconnected systems of the body. I'm a customer for life.
I have had body work with all types of practitioners for 10 years and Dr. Smith is one of, if not the most, comprehensive and intuitive body workers I’ve worked with. I’ve been seeing him as needed for a few months and he is always pushing me to help my body heal (atypical of lots of chiropractors who put you on a frequent treatment plan and just crack your back when they see you). 10/10 highly recommend!
Fantastic! Sports Chiropractic & Massage is so helpful and my back is feeling better already! Between the Pilates, massage, and adjustments, it's a truly nurturing place. The entire staff is kind and helpful!
Absolutely Fabulous! very safe and professional. very knowledgeable and friendly and completely listened to what I really needed to be focused on. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Dr. Morgan Smith is an amazing healer. In one visit he emancipated my body from much chronic, nagging pain, discomfort, malalignment and scar tissue. I am so thankful and looking forward to my next session to clear away some more. I have hope for my body again.He is very likable and put me at ease immediately. And he gave me an exercise program to further my progress at home. Yay!His treatment room is very clean and private. I highly recommend! The only difficulty reaching him is a flight of steps, but once you’re in, you’re in good hands.
My experience with Dr. Smith ranks far and above any other massage therapist I have every seen (this was my first chiropractic experience so I can't compare to other). His approach is holistic and geared towards solving the problems that are causing symptoms rather than just temporarily alleviating tension and symptoms. He taught me exercises and stretches I can incorporate into my routine to help fix the issues that I am having permanently. I would recommend Dr. Smith to any one who is having any pain, tension, or tightness.
I found Dr. Smith by chance and so glad I did. I have been suffering from chronic neck problems for years. I saw him one time and he definitely eased my pain. He knew exactly where my problem areas were located and treated all of them. I can't wait to come back.
What an amazing practitioner! Morgan is so adaptive to whatever you're going through. I came because of the first time client discount, but I've stayed on because there's no one better.
Morgan has been the best adjuster I have had. He is super knowledgeable about the body and working with injuries and healing. Most chiropractors I have seen in the past just go through a standard routine and hardly seem to know how to accommodate an individual, but Morgan is totally different. His knowledge about the human body and health shows, and he is constantly improving on it. I highly recommend him!
Dr. Smith saved me when my back went out, and he gave exercises and ball instructions to use at home that I still use for preventative and maintenance. He really wants people to be able to take care of themselves and heal. He is so knowledgeable and skilled in many different modalities including gentle- effective approaches for those, like me, who don't like having their backs "cracked". He's intuitive, and he's innovative. He also helped my husband with a hamstring injury and 14 yr. son soccer and tennis injuries. I love Dr. Smith. He's by far THE BEST therapist I ever seen. Plus, he's such a kind, positive person. San Francisco is so lucky to have him. Best wishes.
I was raised to believe that chiropractors were charlatans, so I was late to recognize the benefits. A close friend who is a respected doctor has been waxing poetic for years about Dr. Morgan's skills so I finally decided give it a try. After my first session with Dr. Morgan I was a believer! Years of bad habits and stress had taken it's toll, and he was able to pin-point all my problems and offer relief. He also gave me a series of exercises to do on my own so that I only need occasional adjustments. When I do need to come in, it is a pleasure because he is both professional and enjoyable to work with. Some people are just able to radiate who they are and what they are about, and Dr. Morgan is one of them! His positivity alone has gone a long way toward my journey back to feeling great. Since my first session I was able to get back to my workout and this has had a snowball effect on my overall well-being. I sent my wife to him and it has been a game changer for her as well. You will NOT regret going to Dr. Morgan. I really can't say enough about what a wonderful chiropractor/physical therapist he is and what a difference he has made in our lives!
