Back 2 Health

I give positive marks for good results but I would peg their services on the high end. Not sure I have a good set of benchmarks but he’s the 4^th chiro I’ve gone to and since I had to pay out of pocket, two sessions that have run me over $ 400 is what I consider to be excessive. I feel like I was nickel and dimed with the invoice sitting in front of me.

My opinion of Dr. Hsu has only grown over the years. I am very hesitant about chiropractors as I’ve had some bad experiences in the past. His careful attention to my partner gave me the confidence to try a treatment with him. His treatments paved the way for me having a MUCH better experience with my troublesome back. I am now no longer in the area but he got my back to a space where I can maintain a nearly pain free existence all on my own. And frankly, if I would just do the exercises he gave me I would be completely pain free. If you have back pain, please consider him. Also, I only have gotten «activator» adjustments from him. It is a very gentle way of being treated. So, if you are afraid of manual adjustments that is an option.

I was very excited to visit Dr. Hsu after reading all of the great reviews however, I don’t know if he had an «off» day or if he was busy/didn’t think my case was that important/​or just didn’t care because I was getting a second opinion but my experience was not very good.
First of all, Dr. Hsu stood against the wall with his arms crossed the whole time while speaking to me except for when I further engaged him in conversation. He seemed rushed and explained things in a very fast manner that had an air of arrogance. I left my appointment feeling as though he was talking down to me and didn’t really care for what I was looking for.
The receptionist, while nice, did not focus on me while I was talking but continued to organize her paperwork and get things from the printer while I was trying to figure out what my best plan of care should be.
Instead of shaking my hand goodbye, Dr. Hsu walked me halfway to the lobby and then said «ok, it’s just to your left» and then turn around and rushed away.
I guess you can’t always judge a chiropractor by his reviews but just be warned that there is more there than people can say. He also suggested things that were way beyond what I needed.
Needless to say, I will not be returning to him (much to my sadness because I was expecting something great) and will be looking for another doctor.

Dr. Hsu is hilarious and full of charisma.

I put myself through college working in chiropractic offices so I’ve been exposed to lots of different adjustment styles and treatment philosophies; I’ve also received chiropractic care from a variety of doctors in multiple states over the last 25 years. Dr. Austin Hsu is a top-​notch Chiropractor and quite possibly the best health-​care practitioner (in any field) I’ve ever been to.
What distinguishes him from the rest of the pack is that his considerable professional expertise is matched with a level of genuine caring and compassion that is difficult to find these days.
So not only do you get the benefit of up-​to-​the-​minute technology and training (cold-​laser therapy, spinal decompression, electronic Activator-​style adjustments, etc.), you get a doctor with great energy and a healing touch who will take the time to really listen to what is going on with you and who will work hard to provide you with the knowledge and tools you need to support your own health. All delivered in a warm, upbeat, professional, respectful manner, with as much gentleness as possible!
I’ve been getting treatments from Dr. Hsu for over a year now and my respect for him as well as my appreciation for his authenticity continues to grow. And my back feels better than it has in years!

Dr. Austin Hsu is one of the best Chiropractors I have ever seen. He is very in tune with his patient’s pain and does everything in his power to explain why you are in pain and make you feel apart of a team focused on building you body up to better and more comfortable life’s. On topic his professionalism Dr. HAsi is a very kind and caring person.

Overall: Dr. Hsu has done wonders on my FIRST visit!
What can I say? I’m actually looking forward to my next chiropractic visit!
I’ve been seeing a chiropractor for 3 years now, but of recent I didn’t feel like they were doing much for me. Although my lower back issues were controlled; my upper back /​neck had started to give me trouble, to the point where it was affecting my sleep. Therefore, I was on the lookout for a new doc. This is where Unilocal came to the rescue! There were four, genuine-​looking, five-​starred reviews for back 2 health — how could I not try them?
I had the first consultation this Saturday at 8 AM, which lasted about 1 hour. On arriving, the receptionist was friendly and helpful. After a few pieces of paperwork, I went into see Dr. Hsu (who has his own «adjustment» room, unlike my previous doc). He was warm, friendly, clear and concise. He was informative, without being condescending.
We first discussed what my main problems were and background. Then I did the usual range of motion tests. Apparently, I’m more flexible than the average person, but with one difference, limited neck rotation.
My posture was then checked. A warning, Dr. Hsu is very hands-​on and firm, but in a good way. For a good part of the last three years, I was told that my posture was good. Dr. Hsu told me otherwise. Apparently, you can practice good posture, but your body will just go back to the position of least resistance. I could be going for chiropractic adjustments and massages until the cows come home (which I had been), but nothing was going to really help until I strengthened my muscles.
I then had four x-​rays to check my neck and upper thoracic region. The x-​rays were processed and discussed immediately, which was great. My scoliosis was still very apparent, and my neck was lacking its curve.
Dr. Hsu relaxed my neck/​shoulder muscles with a massager and a gel — whoa, this was good! Then he adjusted my lower, upper back and my neck. This guy is pretty forceful when he does the adjustments, but again, in a good way. As soon as I got up, it felt like I was a new person. My neck and shoulders seemed to have freed up, and I could move again — it was ridiculous! I would never have believed anyone, if they told me I would feel such a difference from my first visit! But it’s true. I had a nap when I got home — it was the best sleep that I had in months!
He indicated my healing process was to involve numerous therapies and strengthening exercises. Initially, my 30 minute sessions would be once a week, for eight weeks.
If you have a Microsoft Prime card, you can get a free 1 hour massage with your consultation. After that, you get a 30 minute massage included in your therapy session… oh, I could get used to that!
Another good thing about Dr. Hsu, is that he promotes healthy living by eating a well-​balanced/​nutritious diet, and non-​drug based therapy, with no new-​fangled diet, or pill-​popping — what else could you ask for?
PS — They are open Mon/​Wed/​Fri from 8am to 7pm (with lunch between 12 – 2 pm), and Tue 9 – 12, Sat 8 to 2.

Prior to going to see Dr. Hsu, I had mid back pain that I couldn’t explain. It felt like it was bruised, but had no sign of bruises. My boyfriend was finally able to convince me to see a Chiropractor. I made a call and Dr. Hsu was able to fit me into his schedule. He had this awesome 3D computer program that helped me understand what exactly was causing the back pain. Dr. Hsu used Cold Laser Therapy on my back and a couple weeks later, I was back to normal. I somehow managed to pull my neck out of alignment just by washing my car, and again I went to see Dr. Hsu. After a few visits, I was painfree.
The office staff is very nice and the office is very clean. I recommend anyone who has back problems I felt like a new person after my first visit and if you want to prevent future back problems, I would suggest to go see Dr. Hsu for preventative care!
