Welshons Chiropractic

It’s recently dawned on me on just how long I have been getting put back together by Dr Debbie. It’s been years.
Years later I am happy to report I still absolutely love this place. I not only get put back together myself but I also take my kids. Yes they help kids too!
I’ve been tough on my body over the years and am so very thankful to have found Dr Debbie to keep me going. Fantastic service at a price that is beyond fair. If I could give this place 10 stars I would.

Dr. Welshon’s has been putting me back together for a few year now. I have an autoimmune inflammatory disorder and need both knees and my left hip replaced. She’s enabled me to reduce and then ELIMINATE the need for narcotic painkillers. It’s a whole body approach in their office and she really does care about mind and body. She’s improved my quality of life significantly and I recommend her office to anyone seeking a caring and compassionate doctor.

Dr. Deb is the best! So professional and kind. She truly cares about your well being and never tries to up-​sell you to keep coming back. She is the best chiropractor I’ve been to! Thank you, thank you!!! I always feel better after seeing her!!! Amazing!!!

I have been seeing Dr. Deb for almost two years now and she is a true miracle worker!!! I originally went to her while training for a marathon and she successfully put me back together in order to run it. I was so happy to learn that she adjusts your jaw too, which has literally improved my life. I suffer from pretty sever TMJ and with her adjustments my pain has been reduced almost to non-​existent! I love that no matter what my current issue is, she will adjust me from head to toe to make sure everything is where it needs to be. I recently injured my knee for the very first time in my life, and as a runner this injury was very frightening to me. I immediately went in to see her, and was practically unable to even walk into her practice. She adjusted my knees and I came back in that afternoon to have my bi-​weekly massage with Aaron (who is also a miracle worker). Within hours of both of my treatments, and icing my knee twice, I was completely pain free! I couldn’t believe I went from being unable to walk to perfectly fine in the same day. I was able to even go on a 9 mile run the next day. I couldn’t say enough great things about Dr. Deb and Welshons chiropractic care. I am so glad I found her and this place, it has changed my life for the better!!!

Dr Debbie is EXCELLENT at what she does. Her and her staff are very friendly, helpful, and attentive. Dr. Debbie takes the time to explain exactly what is wrong and why. The atmosphere is wonderful and very welcoming. After having issues with my hips, Dr. Debbie explained thoroughly what was happening with my body so that I could get a clear understanding of my ailments. She then proceeded to adjust me, and it made me feel GREAT! Her infectious spirit and bright smile is part of the reason why I am a repeat customer, and I would highly recommend her for treatment!

Dr Debby was very thorough, knowledgable, and effective. Nice facility and staff.
I have been to multiple chiropractors on both coasts and Dr. Debbie could hold her head high over the rest of them. Highly recommended.

Finally someone who cares about the whole person. Dr. Deb is kind and has a way of knowing what your body needs. First doctor to not treat just the symptom but the actual anatomical problem.

Had a great massage this am. Then an adjustment ! The office is peaceful the staff is kind and everyone is professional !

I’ve been seeing Dr Debbie for a few years and she is very good! I first went to her with a dislocated rib from wakeboarding. She had me lay down on my stomach and found exactly where my problem was without me pointing it out. And of course she fixed it easily.
I’ve continued to see her every few months for new sports related injuries and adjustments and always walk out feeling better.
She ALWAYS remembers me and what my previous problems have been which is pleasantly surprising.
The only downside is that they have some funky hours. Go see her, you’ll not be disappointed!

It is very easy to be worried about going to a chiropractor since things can go wrong but finding Dr. Debby has greatly improved my life. I was a client of the Chiropractor that had the same office before her and really liked him as well but Dr. D. is very current in her thinking. She thinks about the whole body and has been able to adjust my knees and feet — which has been a great addition. I often feel better before I even leave the table.
Another great benefit is she gives CalFit members a discount. Very happy to make this recommendation.

Dr. Debby is amazing and the front desk girl is so polite and considerate she really cares about your time spent at Welshon’s Chiropractic!!! I come in grouchy and in pain and once I leave I am happier than ever. She is by far the best Chiropractor in the Sacramento area.
The Services include modalities such as muscle stim, thumper, stretching if needed as well as ultrasound. What Chiropractor does that?
Not only does she provide these extra services to relax your muscle before the adjustment but, she adjusts MORE THAN YOUR SPINE!!! She adjusts from your neck all the way down to your feet and I ABSOLUTELY recommend her to EVERYONE!!!
You won’t regret it one bit.

Dr Debby is by far the best chiropractor I have been to. She is a very good listener to my needs and most of the time I don’t have to tell her my issues she finds them before I sit down by looking at me. Awesome atmosphere and a one stop shop for all your needs for the body! She adjust more than just your back which in my case is much needed. I didn’t know chiropractors could adjust your elbows or knees.
I would refer Dr Debby to anyone I know, and have. If you want to get you self back on track and feeling good go see Dr Debby!

I was referred here through the Health Center at American River College. I gotta say I am NOT impressed with this place. The front office staff is a tad rude and wholly unprofessional. I made an appointment for 2:15 on a Friday, and I was kept waiting in the waiting room without anyone updating me on the situation. The doctor could’ve been behind, not in the office, or dead for all I know! No one told me anything.
As of 2:45 still waiting and not have seen Dr. Debby. As soon as this appointment is done (who knows when THAT will be) I’m going somewhere else.
Bottom line: there’s no need to schedule an appointment at this place. The staff treats them as if they don’t matter. Also, don’t come here expecting to get in and get out quickly. My 2:15 «appointment» didn’t wrap up until 3:45.

Dr. Debby seems very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and is skilled at giving adjustments. I like how she offers additional muscle treatments before and after your adjustment to help things stay in place. However, after three visits I decided not to go back here because Dr. Debby always seems to be in a rush. The first time I came in, I did not have an appointment, so this was perfectly excusable. The last two times I did have appointments, yet I still got probably less than a minute of face time with the doctor. As someone who has long term chronic pain, I was really hoping more for a doctor who would be a «partner in health» and at least take a minute to discuss my progress, expected course of treatment, tips and advice for followup treatment at home, etc. I’m not looking for sympathy but rather some «here’s what I see going on and here’s what we’re going to do to» kind of information. I find it very odd that the doctor never says goodbye (a «you’re all set,» or «see you in a week,» etc would make a world of difference). She just says asks you to wait in the room, and then calls an assistant to take you to the roller table. You don’t see her again after that. I felt a bit herded through the process.
There is one assistant here who is friendly and helpful, but the rest of the staff seem to operate on a «no information will be volunteered, you must ask the right questions» basis. They don’t really smile or talk, and they assume you know the drill even if you are new. It took me two visits to figure out that when the buzzer goes off on the roller table, that was my cue to get up, go pay and leave. I was just laying there like an idiot wondering if someone was going to come get me and take me to another room or machine (not having been given the customary «we’re done here» cue from the doctor herself.) I also had some sort of «thumper» machine used on me once without anyone explaining what the heck it was or why they were using it. Explanations on these sorts of things would help me feel more at ease, and not leave feeling dumb and slightly embarrassed.
Besides these complaints, I think the treatments are helpful and if your goal is to get in and out quickly, then you will probably be happy going here. I guess I was looking for a more interactive and comforting experience (I’ll admit that being in chronic pain makes one feel rather frustrated and helpless, and probably overly emotional). Dr. Debby, I wish you well in your practice, but this was not the right environment for me!

I went to Welshons for a few months after they ran a ‘deal of the day’ kind of online thing for an initial visit. While I did have some luck alleviating my neck pain, Dr Debbie misadjusted my neck twice. The first time, to her credit, I was re-​adjusted for free the next day. It still took 3 days for the soreness in my neck to fade after that. Recently the second occurance happened and Welshon’s has refused to reply to any of my emails on the matter for over a week. At this point, I’m looking for a more professional chiropractor who understands customer service and taking responsibility for their work/​errors. In the mean time my neck has been hurting like hell.
Welshon’s doesn’t take X-​Rays on initial visits either so you and the docotor have a literal clear picture of what’s going on. As others reported, Dr Debbie does it all by touch. While that may be comforting for people scared of X-​Rays, my case seems to show it’s not always the best or most accurate policy

First impressions are everything. Calling a new patient 15 minutes before a scheduled appointment to reschedule an adjustment is not professional in my book. While I understand Dr Debbie might be a good chiropractor, I will not be giving it a second chance. My time is valuable and I will continue my search for a chiropractor in the area that is reliable.

Dr. Debbie is the $%@# as us young people like to say. I just started going here and can already feel a significant difference in the way my body moves. I feel longer and stronger because of my treatment here. My parents also go here for the magic. My dad actually was scheduled for back surgery because one of his discs looked much like crab meat. He was walking with a cane and taking all sorts of awful pain pills. He started going to sessions at Dr. Debbie’s and his back miraculously healed and he ended up not needing surgery. His doctors couldn’t believe it and, frankly, neither could my family. So in case you were still wondering, yes, Dr. Debbie is Jesus.
Awesome, friendly, helpful staff always! Soothing atmosphere — a nice change of pace after a busy day of running around. It’s really convenient for me to go there right after I work out next door, plus members of CalFit are granted a discount. Great overall experience, and in the words of our former governor, I’ll be back.

Dr. Debby Welshon is a genius. She has xray vision, I’m pretty sure. She can just look at me, then touch me exactly where it hurts. I walk out pain free from her clinic every time.
I stopped in to seek treatment for an injury I sustained 10 months ago, when I was bucked off a horse. My hip has been painful ever since, and after riding cross country from Colorado to California with my three horses, I was as the old timers say «all stove up».
I had severe pain in my psoas and piriformis muscles, which pulled my sacrum «out» and caused impingement on the sciatic nerve. In addition, all this tension caused my shoulder and neck to lock up in pain and stiffness, limiting my range of motion.
The first visit, Dr. Debby spent 90 minutes with me. She put a «STEM» unit on the tight muscles with a heating pad, did some ultrasound, and then called in her massage therapist to work on my cemented neck muscles. I never felt anything like that in my body. She was able to adjust the axis/​atlas joint and I experienced immediate relief of my neck pain and the dizzyness/​vertigo I had been having for 3 weeks prior to the visit.
It was like magic! I couldn’t believe the vertigo was gone, but it was, and has not come back. I know have more pain free range of motion in my neck than I have ever had in my life.
I fully committed to the healing process, and started a program at home of yoga — 2 hours a day. At first I was doing hip openers, but gradually I bought CDs by Shiva Rea and I could feel my body changing, growing stonger, more flexible, and my hips opening.
After all those months of muscles in spasm, it took a few visits to support my home practice of juice fasting and yoga. I lost 15 pounds in 10 days. Dr. Debby stuck with me through all of it, respectful and knowlegeable and as committed to my wellness as I was. I never had a problem getting in at the last minute. She was always there to see me on the days she was open. (She’s closed on the weekend and Tuesday, and comes in from 4 – 7 on Thursdays.) She’s a young mother, and I respect her needing to manage her home life as well as her busy single Dr. practice.
This Friday was a turning point. For the first time, I have been mostly pain free for 2 days. I can feel that my body will soon be well and better than ever — like a Phoenix rising from the ashes!
I completely vouch for Dr. Debby. She’s an amazing healer, in every way.
You should be aware that Dr. Debby provides experience for interns from a medical assisting program. They are sweet young people, and want to help, but they don’t always know what they’re doing because they are in training. When they don’t know, they check with Dr. Debby first so I have always felt safe. By having these aspiring caregivers working with her, she is able to offer an amazing array of therapies for the low cost of $ 45.00/visit. That’s amazing value. The positive thing about the interns is that they are always available to provide assistance so the service is great. You name it, you got it.
This is the best value chiropractor I have ever ever ever seen for some of my many injuries. Dr. Debby really cares about each and every one of her patients (she seems to be hugging people all the time) and will give you the very best care available, or she will refer you if for some rare reason she can’t help you.
I also must just say that her office is very pleasant. Good Feng Shui abounds, from the vibrant plants and soft lighting to the clutter free space and restful meditation music. The staff are so kind and respectful, and knew me by name after the first visit. My only observation of room for improvement is that a couple of times it was chilly in the office, and it would have been good to have a warmer blanket.
I left on my horse travels prematurely last weekend. I was so much better that I jumped the gun and took off on my usual dusty trail. I drove all the way back from Yosemite and this time I will stay in Dr. Debby’s care until I’m 100%. I will update this review when I have been pain free for 3 days.
In partnership with this wonderful provider, I am approaching complete fitness and flexibility to a level I have not achieved in years. Don’t delay. If you have pain, you cannot afford not to visit Debby. There is no better deal, and no better care at any price.
Also, for $ 10.00 the attached fitness club next door will allow the use of their facilities which includes a sauna and awesome whirlpool hot tub. In case you need a good steam bath… and who doesn’t in the middle of this winter???

Now hear this: Dr. Debbie is a miracle worker!
I hurt my rotator cuff in a backwards fall, turned somersault last weekend. Finally I made the time to hit the chiro. A little stim, some ultrasound, and some expert adjustments by Dr. Debbie and I feel amazing.
So good I went and did some Turbo Kick-​boxing at 24 Hour Fitness. Obviously I’m a crack smoker because my shoulder was killing me after that. However, as I write this, it’s the next day and I can tell you that my shoulder isn’t as painful and I have almost all of my mobility back sans pain.
And, I am happy to report that the ex-​terns she currently has working are über professional and very pleasant.
If you have an injury and are in pain, Dr. Debbie at Welshons Chiropractic should be your go-​to, get better fast gal!
Some details. For new patients she has you walk-​in and fill out forms describing your injuries. Once you are in the system, so to speak, you can make an appointment.
Le’chaim!

There is no one better than Dr. Debby in the whole of CA for personal wellness. She not only knows the human body, but she also knows roller derby (a.k.a. Dr. Diamond). She can tell what kind of penalties I’ve committed when I walk through her doors!
As a chiropractor running her own business, she is dependent on help from local medical assistant students. Many of these students have never worked in an office before. Therefore, they are going through the training process and learning along the way.
I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Debby to any athlete based on her sports medicine training.
