I am VERY discerning about chiropractors and I would highly recommend his services. I had an adjustment and so did my two year old son (that's how good he was, or I wouldn't have let him touch my son!). Their office staff was so helpful and friendly. Thank you!

I just finished with two months of trying to find out why my left leg was so painful and debilitating. After less then ten minutes into the chiropractor’s exam I had a solid answer. A treatment schedule
Was made and I was totally speechless
At the whole experience. I went home and slept the rest of the day from my stress release and canceled my other appointments with my other providers!
Never give up hope . I found it at Higher
Ground Chiropractic !

I was seen by Dr Portillo and he did a thorough exam, listened to my concerns and gave me a great adjustment as well as some exercises/stretches I can do at home. The office staff was personable and got me set up right away. Definitely recommend this office.
