Anderson Chiropractic

I have just one word to sum up my chiro visits (20+) with Dr. Gregg Anderson and his wife, Dina, at Anderson Chiropractic over the past summer: gratitude. Almost two years ago, an impact injury turned my once-agile, super-athletic physique into something resembling concrete. At first, the discomfort was manageable. But over time, I lost strength and flexibility on my left side. My back stiffened into a single slab of granite, and the pain grew unbearable. I eventually had to give up whitewater raft guiding (more than 30 trips per year for the past 20 years) and even trail running — a daily passion — and by last November, I’d stopped all outdoor activities completely. I had never needed a chiropractor before, but desperate for relief, I visited four different ones in the Auburn area — three through a chain clinic and one highly recommended by the local running community. None of them could solve my problems. Months passed, my weight climbed by thirty pounds, and frustration set in. As a lifelong athlete and outdoor adventurer, I was used to understanding my body. But this time, I was completely stumped. After some research (“—Thank you Youtube!”), I suspected misaligned ribs were part of the problem — deep breaths had become difficult — so I searched online for specialists. Anderson Chiropractic appeared at the top of those results in the Greater Sacramento Area. Despite my skepticism to attempt another Chiropractor, I decided to try one more time. From the moment I walked into the office, my doubts began to fade. Dina greeted me warmly, knew every other patient that passed through by name, and caught up with each like an old friend. The kindness and familiarity in that waiting room set a tone I hadn’t experienced in a long time. Then I met Dr. Anderson. He didn’t try to impress me with jargon or show off his expertise. Instead, he asked thoughtful questions and took detailed notes — something even my primary care doctor doesn’t do. After our conversation, he performed his first assessment and began a series of adjustments to none of the other Chiropractors I tried had done before. The results were immediate and astonishing. Pain and tension released from my hip, leg, back, and ribs. My breathing was much easier and deeper. The transformation was so profound that I felt “clumsy” and had to walk around the parking lot for thirty minutes just to let my body recalibrate. Week after week, the improvements continued. Each session felt like an on-going game of whack-a-mole — one issue resolved, another surfaced — but with every adjustment, the problems became smaller and less frequent. After six weeks, I could rotate my torso again and lift heavy objects without strain. The pain was down to just 15–20% of what it had been. My body was finally decompressing and healing naturally. I still have progress to make, but the transformation has been nothing short of miraculous. The weekly two-hour round trip from my home in the foothills is worth every minute. Because of Dr. Anderson’s care, I have hope again. I do believe I’ll be able to get back to guiding whitewater rafts on the local rivers and running the mountain trails in the Sierras again by next summer. “Dr. Anderson and Dina — I can’t thank you enough for helping me get my life back.” — Stu

Got my first real chiro adjustment ever. And it felt SO good. I was always so afraid and terrified of getting my neck adjusted but I definitely trusted Dr. Gregg because he is just so knowledgeable & experienced. He made my experience so so much better. His wife also was so welcoming at the front. It’s so important to do your research and find the right chiropractor —don’t hesitate to see Dr. Gregg because he definitely knows what he is doing. Highly recommend! My neck felt so much better after and I will definitely be coming back (with my husband next time)! I’m so grateful I met him! Thank you!

I’ve been a mess from head to toe — dealing with everything from mid-back spasms to migraines, chronic pain, and even issues that were starting to affect my daily life in more personal ways. I’d gone to doctors, had tests and scans, tried massage — and still felt like no one could tell me what was actually wrong. Every door felt like a dead end. Out of frustration, I typed all my symptoms into ChatGPT one day, hoping for at least some clarity. (To be clear — GPT is NOT a doctor!) But it helped me connect the dots and suggested that a chiropractor might be the missing link. That’s when I found Dr. Anderson — and it turned out to be the breakthrough I’d been searching for. From my very first appointment, he actually showed me what was going on in my body — my spine, my pelvis, my neck — and explained how it was all connected. It finally made sense. And for the first time in months, I felt heard and hopeful. The adjustments have already made a huge difference. My back has calmed down, my migraines are easing, and I finally feel like I’m moving in the right direction. I know this is an ongoing journey, but the progress I’ve made so far has been incredible. I'm just really grateful. I finally feel like I’m healing — not just surviving.

I had been saying, 'I need to see a chiropractor,' for YEARS, but it was always something I put off. I wish I had done it so much sooner! Dr. Anderson's office is incredibly accommodating—I was able to get in quickly once I finally made the call, and I’ve been going regularly for adjustments ever since. I have pretty intrusive TMJ and general alignment pain that I just lived with for far too long, but the relief I’ve experienced, especially with my TMJ, has been life-changing. I recommend Anderson Chiropractic to all my friends! He’s the best in the business and truly takes the time to assess and provide individualized care. Don’t wait - just make the call!
