Dr. Gallego is the best chiropractor and I have seen more than 15 over the course of my years. Many years ago, she saved me from knee surgery from a torn meniscus. I am forever grateful.
Michael Noll • Jan 17, 2026
Raphael from Neurohaven is amazing. So is the front desk. I highly recommend.
Cinthia Soto • Jan 17, 2026
Dr. Gallego has been a miracle worker. I am able to perform daily tasks without pain. More recently, she has helped lessen the pelvic and cervical discomfort after given birth. I am able to focus more on being present for my newborn and less worried about body aches. Thank you Dr. Gallego for the years of Chiro support.
