Michael G Luban DC

Great experience! I was in Chicago for just two nights, with my back locked up, and Dr. Luban fit me in although he had never seen me before. A few cracks later, I was in good shape for my return flight to Phoenix.
During my appointment, Dr. Luban took the time to get to know me, my history and my profession — all just a few days before Christmas when he and his staff could have been seeking to close early. I feel grateful to have been his patient!

I can’t thank Dr Luban enough for relieving me from my years old back pain (that I had been wrongly crediting to weakness or my bad posture) in just a couple of adjustments. He took his time figuring out the cause of the pain which was the soreness caused by one of my back joints. I walked out feeling instantly better and returned for my next adjustment the second day with 90% improvement. I like the fact that he treats the problems and not the symptoms unlike my past treatments where I had my X-​rays done that didn’t show any issues and thus I was put on pain killers. Dr Luban is a very competent professional and I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Luban has been wonderful. He’s extremely knowledgeable about pain issues and has helped me with my back, neck and shoulder areas. His adjustments work in reducing my pain and loosening up my tension and sore areas. He explains what’s going on through the whole process. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is dealing with pain. You can tell he has your best interest at heart and truly cares about his patients. I have seen him on and off for the past couple years and only wish that I would have consistently utilized his treatments instead of on and off.

Dr. Luban has been great in addressing my problem areas. In one instance I had aggravated a wrist injury that I thought was a sprain. I never thought of asking Dr Luban what he thought of the injury as I thought it wasn’t something he could «crack» into place. Turns out the «sprain» was actually a dislocated bone that Dr Luban was able to put into place. Instantly the mobility in my wrist returned. Would highly recommend seeing Dr Luban for any of your issues.

I came to Dr. Luban after more than a week of neck pain that made it difficult to even turn my head. After only a couple of sessions my neck pain not only went away, but I could urn my neck further than I had in a long time. He has also worked on my shoulder (had slight pain there along with the neck pain) and my lower back.
Aside from the great work Dr. Luban does, his staff is wonderful. Nancy is so sweet and welcoming. I never have trouble getting in for an appointment.
I would recommend Dr. Luban to anyone who is dealing with pain or discomfort.

Dr. Luban and his staff are amazing. Nancy the receptionist is so nice and welcoming. They were very accommodating and were able to squeeze me in on very short notice. The massage therapist Shelly is great at what she does and so is Dr. Luban. Both were very informative, using illustrations and models to describe the issue I was having. I couldn’t walk, go up stairs, sleep, move my legs apart, etc. without experiencing excruciating sharp pains in my hip joint area. Dr. Luban adjusted my spine and by the time I got home that evening, I could walk better and go up the stairs using alternating steps. In less than two days, I was back to normal with NO PAIN!

This review is for Shelly, the Therapeutic massage therapist. After my first massage with her I was satisfied/​felt great. She has a unique set of skills. She is able to focus on the area (s) of concern and explain to you what’s going on as she performs her magic. Her knowledge of the body muscle part is well explained. Can’t wait for my next one. Thxs Shelly!!!

I have seen Dr. Luban through 2 of my 3 pregnancies. With both, seeing Dr. Luban regularly helped immensely with back pain and pelvic alignment. Dr. Luban also helped me go into labor. With both pregnancies I saw Dr. Luban the day I went into labor. The first time my waters broke right after my adjustment and the second time I started having contractions on my way home from his office. Both labors and deliveries were relatively short and easy. I truly believe that Dr. Luban helped my body prepare for birth and delivery. He helped my pelvis relax and helped my babies get into the best positions possible. I highly recommend Dr. Luban for anyone expecting a baby who wants to gently and effectively prepare their body and their baby for a smooth delivery.

Dr. Luban is fantastic! He treated the neck pain that had been plaguing me for years. It was so bad that I couldn’t carry even a very light shoulder bag for more than a few minutes. Sometimes my neck pain would even wake me up at night. I’m glad someone recommended Dr. Luban to me because a few weeks of regular treatments had me feeling better than I felt in at least five years. Another great thing I like about Dr. Luban: he’s really up-​front with his plan for recovery. He told me right off the bat that his goal was to get me to the point where I wouldn’t need treatments any longer. Finally, I’ve reached that point, and I’m really happy that Dr. Luban was able to fix me up!

I appreciate Dr. Lubin’s approach to total health and wellness. He was able to help relieve my lower back pain and was extremely observant on other issues. His staff is great.

I had been dealing with pain in my sacrum area since last November. I finally decided to take it upon myself, take the time out of my schedule, and go to Dr. Luban for some serious work on my back. I’m so glad I did! All the months of feeling such pain has been removed in a matter of a couple of weeks and four sessions to Dr. Luban. My whole body feels better, not just my back. I’m kind of addicted now to the feeling of getting my back adjusted and walking out a «free» woman! P. S. I’ve gone to a chiropractor once before in my life and it wasn’t a good experience. Trust me, Dr. Luban gets it and knows what he’s doing!

I’m pregnant with twins one breech and one head down. I googled ways to turn my baby because I didn’t want to get a dreaded C-​Section. Dr Luban helped big time he knew all about the Webster Technique and helped me turn my babies!

I had been suffering for a recurring lower back pain for a while now. The pain itself was not intolerable but it was consistent and I would end up taking pain killers every night just so I could get a full night’s sleep.
I did some research and found Dr. Luban’s information. He is very friendly, well organized and easy to setup a new patient appointment. I am really glad I went to him, after doing a thorough examination, he gave me a manual adjustment. I went home feeling a little sore, but also feeling some relief. By nighttime my pain had completely disappeared. I now go to the doctor for followup visits and regular chiropractic maintenance visits. I understand that everybody’s situation is different, but for my particular problem he was a god send. I am pain free and really happy that I found a great chiropractor in the Chicago area!
I highly recommend him. If you read this, and are looking for a new chiropractor, give Dr. Luban a call and you will be happy you did.

My shoulder was hurting when I moved, slept, and breathed. so I finally looked up Dr. Luban. Quickly got me in and in 5 sessions as promised I have no pain. I have peers that have similar issues because our work is very physical in a hospital, and months later they are still in pain. Very lucky to get everything back to normal in a month!

Dr. Luban was absolutely great! I went in to get an adjustment, as it had been a long time since my last and was feeling sore. Deep tissue massages weren’t lasting as long as they used to, so the tightness/​soreness was coming back quickly.
Dr. Luban quickly identified my problem and now my back has returned to 100%!

Wow, this review is a long time coming!
Dr. Luban has fixed me on 2 occasions. First, when I thought I had carpal tunnel — some adjustments to my neck and upper back and voila! Pain in my hand was gone and it has not come back almost 3 years later.
When I was pregnant with my first child, I was experiencing so much pain in my lower back that I couldn’t take it any longer, it hurt to get in and out of cars, up and off of furniture, ect. Dr. Luban has pre-​natal chiro experience and every adjustment was safe to my baby. Seeing him every week was the ONLY thing that alleviated my sacrum pain (my baby was a low-​rider). I was so thankful! During that time I also has pre-​natal massages with Shelly that felt incredible and helped to loosen me up prior to getting adjusted.
Now I just go see him periodically for things I may be feeling like abnormal amounts of headaches, back soreness and such. I always come away feeling less tense. Now let’s talk about how Dr. Luban is the friendliest, most positive-​energy guy I’ve ever met. Good vibes just emanate off him and you enjoy being there. Nancy, his assistant is so friendly and personable as well. Great folks, great care!
I come from a household where my husband will not see a chiropractor. I get the reservations some folks have about that. I realize chiropractic care is not for everyone, but for me it’s been the solution to some pretty painful moments in my life.

This review is for Shelly, the massage therapist in Dr. Luban’s office. I haven’t had treatments or appointments with Dr. Luban before.
I’ve received two massage sessions with Shelly and they are easily the two best I’ve received from all the massage groupon/​youswoop hopping I’ve done. I will probably just stick to her going forward. I’ve had back muscle issues and after both sessions, I left feeling like my back was 15 years younger. I highly recommend if you need massage therapy for actual pain. Probably not the place for you if you just want a relaxation therapy type massage.

My bf has been seeing Dr Luban for a few weeks/​months now and every time he gets out of there I hear nothing but great news. My bf has always had bAck problems, especially his lower back. Since he has seen dr Luban I hear no complains. I on the other hand have neck and upper back discomfort ness. I finally went to see him and my first visit was amazing. He did an assessment on me and was able to target all the right areas. He cracked areas on my back and shoulders as well as my neck. Each visit has been better than the last and I feel less tension on my upper back and shoulders. Not to mention Dr Luban is really kind and welcoming. He knows what he’s doing and he has a very friendly staff.

This is the place to go for a great Chiropractor. Dr. Luban is incredible. He embodies everything you would want in a Chiropractor… friendly, informative, welcoming and very easy going.
I went in for a visit regarding foot pain and he really took the time to analyze my situation. He offered several approaches to help ease my pain and get my foot back to normal. Not only did he help me (and is currently helping me) with my foot situation but he took the time to ask me questions about my overall health and offered a referral to a great homeopathic doctor closer to my home.
Highly recommended… 5 stars all the way!

Dr. Luban is the real deal! !! You won’t get «sold» or pushed into buying a «package» in the hope that you will get better. You WILL get unbelievable personal care from someone who really cares about YOU.
I have been a patient for 14 months now and have never felt better in my life, and I only go every other week. I am still surprised when lay on the table, he moves his hands over my back, and finds just the spot that is bothering me… all without asking.
In addition, Shelly his massage therapist is a INCREDIBLE. An hour with her and all your troubles disappear.
What a great combination.
Do yourself a favor and stop by his office!!!
