I’ve had the opportunity to work with many different chiropractors in Santa Monica, most of which usually begin and end the same. I typically arrive, discuss my discomfort and I’m given a temporary solution to a permanent problem.
However, my experience at UCSC with Dr. Nimira Alibhoy was significantly different. Unlike other chiropractors in Santa Monica, Dr. Alibhoy takes the time to thoroughly explain her healing methods and the science behind them, prior to any body part being examined. I was instantly comforted and had the security of Dr. Alibhoy’s expertise. Where most chiropractors place you on their table and begin adjusting your spine, Dr. Alibhoy is an upper cervical specialist, helping restore communication between the brain and the rest of the body, ultimately, allowing health and healing messages to be sent with long-lasting results.
Not only does she take the time to inform her patients, but she spends time taking x-rays as well. Prior to any adjustments, she confirms the root of the problem in order to create a proactive recovery plan. After she adjusted by neck, I felt a very vibrant and soothing sensation throughout my body. She led me into a relaxation room where I had a chance to rest and allow the adjustment to set in the right way. After 45 minutes in her relaxation chair, I remained in a euphoric and enlightened haze.
The following week, Dr. Alibhoy invited me back in for a follow up visit in order to show me exactly how the adjustment balanced my nervous system.
She focuses on results by ensuring a properly functioning nervous system. She teaches her patients that healing comes from within and how to maintain your adjustments.
I was highly impressed by the professionalism and extreme knowledge that Dr. Nimira Alibhoy exhibits. Not only is Upper Cervical Specific Chiropractic an amazing experience for all but it is now the only form of chiropractic healing for me!
