AXIS Chiropractic

I came to Dr. Bill as a chiropractic skeptic, and as a sufferer of chronic lower back pain. Nothing in conventional medicine had helped, so when my medical massage therapist, Nicole Blankenship, couldn’t determine why I was developing pain in my front right hip, she referred me to Dr. Bill.
The diagnostics and posture exams were immediately eye-​opening as to just how out of balance my body had become due to the chronic pain. Dr. Bill explained how correcting these imbalances would help alleviate both my hip and back pain.
I drive from Davis three times a week JUST to see Dr. Bill. Not only do I leave his office immediately feeling less pain, but I leave with new knowledge about my body, my health and my lifestyle. Dr. Bill empowers you to be an advocate for your own health, and he encourages you to focus on your ability rather than disability. And it’s all incredibly simple. Too often we miss the simplest truths because we are so focused on the white noise around us, but when Dr. Bill mentions them, it makes perfect sense and you wonder how you ever missed it.
I have already given his name and contact info to friends and strangers with back pain, and I highly recommend him to anyone suffering from back pain. It sounds cheesy (and maybe dramatic) to say that he can change your life, but he has certainly changed mine.

I started visiting Dr. Bill for injuries related to my gymnastics coaching position and he worked wonders for my back and neck, but also for my extremities and overall health. I can honestly say that I believe he cares for the health and well being of all of his patients and he loves what he does. He is very knowledgeable in exercise science and always challenges his patients to think and apply logic to personal health issues. I am in better health and learned a great deal from Dr. Bill. I really need to drop in on a Saturday sometime.

It’s been 3 years with Dr. Bill now and things are only going well :) Dr. Bill has a great bed-​side manner and has really helped me keep my body healthy and functioning at max capacity :) I’ve learned more about my body and how to keep it optimal during my time with Dr. Bill and will continue to see him!

Let me start by saying Dr. Bill is amazing!
I’ve had back problems for years and the doctors kept giving me pills and telling me to do more yoga. Well, that wasn’t working. I’ve always been leery of chiropractors, but one day I came home in so much pain I looked at my hubby & said I’m trying a chiropractor… And so the search began…
I did a lot of research. I read articles on how to find a good chiropractor, shifted through lots of websites, local blogs & Unilocal reviews. Finally I made my choice & went with Dr. Bill.
There are a few decisions in my life that I look back on and say «That was a defining moment!» Walking into his office is on that list!
Dr.Bill goes over EVERYTHING with you. I mean everything… I felt like I should be taking notes there was so much great information. Dr. Bill made me feel completely at ease. He really cares about his patients, their health and well being. His passion & dedication shine through. Dr. Bill is able to answer any questions in this amazing relatable way where you understand what he says & you feel smarter!
After my first appointment he called me that night to see how I was feeling after my first adjustment. I was beyond shocked! I looked at my husband, after the phone call, and said, «This guy is the real deal! He actually cares!»
Currently I’m on my way to feeling better than I have in years and helping my body work at its best. My husband & my extremely traditional skeptical mom in law are now patients of Dr. Bill too! They both say they feel better than they have in years!
I urge anyone reading this post to give him a call & meet with him.

I have never written a Unilocal review, but after my experience at Discover Chiropractic, I felt compelled. Yesterday I went to see Dr. Bill in an emergency situation. My shoulder was in crazy pain, and I was desperate. I chose Dr. Bill because of the great Unilocal reviews. When I called, I talked to Pam, the receptionist. She was very nice and got me in to see him immediately. When Dr. Bill took me back to the room, he asked me many questions and took his time with me to assess my situation. I could tell he just genuinely cares and is quite compassionate. He proceeded to gently move my arm and let me know nothing was out of place. He gave me some instructions on how to care for my shoulder. He hugged me as I left, just as he did every person I saw him adjust. Today, while not feeling 100%, I am noticeably better. Thanks so much to Dr. Bill and I do highly recommend his services. Hard to find someone who actually cares these days.

Great, friendly chiropractor! Always in a good mood and gets you in and out feeling satisfied! I have been going for 2 months now and feel great! I’d recommend Bill to anyone. You won’t be disappointed!

I’ve been very skeptical about going to a chiropractor. Going to Dr. Bollinger has erased those fears. Dr. Bollinger is very friendly, listens to your concerns and is very thorough in his examination. What he believes in hit home with me and I don’t want a quick fix for my body. I want to do what’s right for my body and live a healthy life. I look forward to my next visit with Dr. Bollinger and I would encourage all readers of this review to go to Dr. Bollinger if you’re looking to increase the quality of your life.

I’ve got to admit, I was a skeptic about chiropractors for a long time. It was mainly from watching TV shows growing up like the Simpsons and such poking fun at the professions expense. When I had an ache or pain I would do what everyone does, I went to see my family physician and he would always say it’s all normal and then write me a prescription for some pain killer or muscle relaxer and send me on my way. I hated this and I rarely filled the prescriptions because I didn’t like how they made me feel. I needed to be functional and fully aware of what I was doing at work so drugs with side effects just didn’t work for me. I’ve always had back and neck pains all through life and I kind of prided myself on my ability to work through the pain for the most part. Now at age 40, I just couldn’t do it anymore. I was having some severe neck and upper back pain for about two weeks and one morning at around 2:00AM I wasn’t able to sleep because of the pain I began my search. I pulled out my tablet and went looking for a Chiropractor in my area. I searched through loads of different Chiropractors webpages looking at the feedback and recommendations and then I found Discover Chiropractic and Doctor Bill. I went through his reviews and such but I didn’t stop there. I kept going through more and more webpages from other doctors but I kept going back to Dr. Bills page. I was finally sure about who to choose and I started filling out the forms on Dr. Bill website and submitted them. I wasn’t expecting a call or email for a couple of days and I was surprised when Dr. Bill emailed me back when he got to his office first thing in the morning to tell me he could take me in as soon as I was available. Well, I called him right back and I was in there in thirty minutes. He assessed and documented my problems and gave me more information than I ever had from any Dr. It took about three visits for me to really start feeling better and now about a month and a half after my first appointment I’m feeling great. Dr. Bill is now treating my whole family and we’re all getting better and feeling better together. I now recommend Dr. Bill to everyone. If you’re in pain, you should make an appointment and see what Dr. Bill can do for you.

I have been to MANY chiropractors. even those with super fancy offices… But the result was always the same! Get in get out do it their way or no way. And that doesn’t work for me! I came out a couple months later worse off than I started.
Dr. Bolinger is positive, friendly and knowledgeable. He always takes the time to listen and do what is best for ME. My case is not the easiest to work with, but he is always willing to do things at my pace and within my limitations.
He is able to adapt to my needs for each appointment to ensure I get the best possible results, and is always willing to try new techniques to make my visits more comfortable.
There is no pressure in the way of my lifestyle or the changes I should make unless solicited, and thus far his advice has been very helpful.

Dr. Bill is the best. He is friendly and truly concerned with making YOU healthier!

Since being involved in a car accident 10 years ago, I have had chronic neck and back pain. I also have a very active job that requires lots of lifting and it constantly puts more strain and stress on my back. I have managed to maintain moderate levels of comfort with somewhat irregular adjustments in the past, but had recently stopped with all treatment due to some financial strain and scheduling issues at a previous doctor. Previous doctors had prescribed muscle relaxers and painkillers that left me feeling dulled and gave only temporary numbing relief. The past year I have undergone some significant stressors in life including the loss of 2 dear family members and additional medical issues of my own. These stressors caused my pain to increase exponentially and I began developing migraines and sciatica in addition to my all-​over neck and back pain. I decided to seek out a new chiropractor and when I called Discover Chiropractic the first time, Dr. Bill was able to see me on the same day!
I have been seeing Dr. Bill for a few months now, and I cannot recommend him enough. He is kind, courteous, and has a flexible schedule for my rotating work schedule. His prices are competitive. He takes the time to find out how you are doing and tries to explain things in a way that makes logical sense. While he adjusts your spine, he encourages you to adjust the things in your life that you are able to in order to live a more healthy and happy life with as little pain as possible. Since my first visit with him, I have stopped the painkillers and muscle relaxers. I have restarted exercise and yoga. I have less pain in many aspects, including less tension in my spine and shoulders, and less intensity and frequency of headaches.
If you are ready to receive some wonderful guidance to help you become more in-​tune to your body’s health, I highly recommend you visit Discover Chiropractic ASAP!

I have been visiting Dr. Bollinger for a few years, as needed for my back and neck pain flare-​ups. He is a great chiropractor, always very welcoming and friendly, as well as efficient and effective when it comes to treatments. I literally cannot think of anything negative to say about Dr. Bollinger, I just wish he had an office in Sacramento.
