Optimal Health Greathouse Chiropractic

I barely was able to walk into their office yesterday Wednesday (January 20, 2016) at noon.
After a treatment on the decompression table and a laser treatment, I actually felt less pain as I walked out of their office.
I am writing this to let others know that that Optimal Health can help you through with your pain.
Today is Thursday (January 21, 2016), I am astounded, that I am able to get out of bed without any agonizing pain.
Thanks to the Doctors and staff at Optimal Health.
If you are having agonizing pain, Optimal Health is the place to have it go away.

This is a hidden gem in all of San Diego. I couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming and positive experience when I came in complaining of back pain and knee tendinitis from my 7-​day amateur racquetball tournament. All of the staff were so respectful and attentive whenever I came in for my treatment. Make sure you ask for Hayley to help you out! She was the shining star at this facility that really catapulted my time here from «amazing» to «phenomenal». If I could, I would give this place ⁶⁄₅ stars. It was just that rewarding. I highly recommend Optimal Health and the wonderful the care that they provide!

Wow what a great experience! My dad has had neuropathy for 10 years and we tried everything. We finally came here and I’m sure glad we did. He is walking better, looking better, and is pain free! Hayley usually set him up on his treatments and was great! Thank you everyone at optimal health!

Wow, my experience was amazing! I was skeptical at first but after a couple laser treatments my back feels great. Thank you Optimal Health and Hayley who was great with the laser.

I fell and fractured my hand 2 ½ months ago. A client suggested I try their 2 free treatments and I went last week for my 1^st session and yesterday for the 2^nd one with their laser treatment.
Dr. Garcia took care of me both times. He has a gentle touch and was very knowledgeable about my sort of injury.
I noticed a significant change in my hands and it really helped with the inflammation and healing process.
Highly recommend you try it.

I recently went through the process of potentially signing up for treatment in this office. I went to the dinner presentation, the evaluation at the office, and through the test results (i.e. sales presentation).
I am a healthy 47-​year old, with no medical problems at all and do not, and have never had neuropathy (I told them I had minor neck pain). So the information I am giving in this review is from what I experienced, and from speaking with others who have had experience with this office.
When you sign up for a free dinner presentation, you can bring your family members with you to hear about neuropathy. During the presentation, if anyone asks the speaker what the cost of their program is, they will say the range can be anywhere from $ 500, up to $ 15,000. Quite the range. What they aren’t telling you is that the treatment is just about $ 8,000 — no exceptions. They want you to think that everyone is treated differently, but the price is the price. In my case, despite knowing at the dinner presentation that I did not have peripheral neuropathy, I was still advised by the speaker to «go to the office to at least get it checked out.» They won’t tell you at the dinner talk if you have peripheral neuropathy or not, and that you would need to come into the office for the evaluation to find out. When I said that I couldn’t afford the $ 29 for the evaluation, I was told they would waive the fee.
During the evaluation, they do several tests to measure the nerves, and even though there was absolutely no lack of sensation in my feet, when they were done, they still tried to convince me that I had the «early stages» of peripheral neuropathy. They also use a variety of scare, and «scarcity» tactics as a way to get people to sign up for the expensive treatment. They will tell you that you have to «qualify» and that they usually have to turn people away when in reality, they go to all lengths to let no one walk out of the door without signing up.
When I asked about the treatment itself, it turns out there are unsupervised «techs» treating patients, not the doctors. Just because there are chiropractors «in the building,» that DOES NOT imply that the techs are being supervised. The «Doctors» themselves are not applying the treatments at all, they are only trained on how to sell the program.
There is no MD overseeing the clinic, only chiropractors and «case managers» who are very well trained in sales. There are no Dietitians on staff, but yet they are still recommending that patients completely revamp their diets (apparently a version of Paleo) and take a variety of supplements, which is extremely risky given that the majority of their patients are diabetic, and they can have a severe adverse interaction with their current medications.
When I mentioned that I wanted to talk everything over with my primary doctor, I was told that it wasn’t necessary.
HERE’S THE BEST PART (click on this link):
Scroll down to the post from «Abby L.» SHE’S AN EMPLOYEE OF THE OFFICE!
They have the nerve to post their own reviews on Unilocal acting as a patient? I found out that Abby is actually one of the supervisors at the office. She has to be in her mid-​30s, and judging by the size of her heels, has NEVER had neuropathy. If you go to the office, ask her how her fake neuropathy treatment is going.
So just for fun, go get your free dinner, and then go into the office without any signs of neuropathy, and watch the magic unfold as they try to convince you that the hangnail or toe fungus you’ve been battling is actually early signs of peripheral neuropathy.
They will also tell you that, in 2 months, you’ll probably need to have your foot amputated before it rots off. Or even better, paint your toenails black and watch them try to convince you that your toes are already deprived of blood and circulation, and without their «one of a kind treatment,» you’ll end up in a wheelchair or lose both of your feet in a no time flat.
Dr. Greathouse is the owner and a chiropractor. Request him and tell him your only symptom is neck stiffness (that’s what I did with the salesman who met with me) and watch how they turn just about any symptom you have into an early case of neuropathy.
Fyi, this office changed their name to «Restore Medical Group» from «Foundation Medical Group». I would assume they did this to skate around the bad Unilocal reviews, but it looks like that didn’t work at all did it? I wonder if the Better Business Bureau or the state health boards have looked into this place?
In conclusion, I’m sure there are offices that really do help people who (legitimately) have neuropathy. But I’m sure they don’t go to these lengths to get their patients to pay $ 8,000 for a treatment program that may or may not even work.

About 2 years ago I started having a Burning sensation on the bottom of my feet, numbness in my toes, and tingling all over my feet, and some occasional sharp shooting pains in my feet and legs. I had a hard time sleeping at night. I informed my regular medical Doctor and was diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy. Neuropathy is damage to the nerves which may be caused either by diseases or trauma to the nerves, chemotherapy, or diabetes, among other ways. Unfortunately I was told that there was no cure for Neuropathy, and the treatment for reducing the discomfort or pain, was to take several powerful drugs. Because of all the potential side effects to my body from the drugs they would have to prescribe for me, I decided to seek another treatment for my Neuropathy pain. After reading an advertisement in the morning newspaper for a treatment program for Neuropathy from the Foundation Medical Group in Scripps Ranch, San Diego, I decided to go to the free dinner meeting and check it out. The dinner meeting, led by speaker and Chiropractor Dr. Brown was very Professional, Educational, and Informative. Dr. Brown told us how Foundation Medical group could not guarantee a 100% cure for Neuropathy, but a large percentage of their past patients, over 2600 last year alone, have had improvement, and or relief of their Neuropathy symptoms after treatments. Some patients seeing up to 80% improvement on the Burning, Tingling, Numbness, Balance Issues, Sharp-​Shooting Pain, Electric Pain, and Cramping. After a 34 year career as a University, High School, and Middle School Teacher and Administrator, I appreciated the strait forward, honest, and truthful presentation from the Foundation Medical Group. There was no pressure put on me, or any other potential patients, to sign up for the program. Because of all the positive research and results I found from the program which I discovered, I decided to give the program a try.
After a very thorough examination and discussion of my Neuropathy symptoms, by Dr. Bordes, a 10 week program was put together for me to receive several foot and calf treatments done every week. The overall Painless treatments include a Pro Neuro LED Light therapy, which is an FDA approved therapy, to increase circulation in your feet and legs. Then a specific computerized treatment device from Germany called Hakomed, is applied to your feet and calf’s. It delivers a patented frequency technology to your damaged nerves. This technology starts to exercise your nerves. The Doctors said this is very important when you’re trying to rehabilitate damaged nerves. You have to get your nerves working again electrically. The Doctors also will provide you with a comprehensive nutritional class, and provide daily supplements, and a program for you to follow, to help the healing process of Neuropathy. The medical technicians, Tyler, Samantha, and Cora who administer your daily in office treatments, are outstanding ! Their professional, personable, and caring attitude and demeanor is Top Notch ! They make you feel like family every time you visit for a treatment. After my Ten week treatment program, my results were amazing. The Burning on my feet has improved by 90%. The numbness in my feet has improved about 60%, and the tingling and sharp pains have decreased by about 70%. This Foundation Medical Group program was definitely successful for me, and definitely was worth the time and investment to improve my Neuropathy pain symptoms by that much.

Due to this facility sending me a lawsuit letter. I have chosen to delete my honest opinions of this company. My best wishes to anyone who comes in contact with this place.

i agree with the previous posts; all they want is your money. We attended the seminar which uses scare tactics; photos of diseased feet, and the next step is.amputation. You don’t want that do u; so sign up with us. These people are salesmen, nothing more. There were no diplomas hanging in their offices, only photos of people who gave great testimonials! The chiropractors are very young. Dr. Brown only started 1 year ago. For $ 11,000 plus, which includes 30 visits and supplements, and an apparatus to be used at home, you may get relief; no guaranties. But if you sign up today, the cost was approx. 7,800. The Dr. said they make it affordable for seniors; this is affordable. The cost is more than $ 200 per visit! Have a problem with payments? He suggested we get an interest-​free Discover card. I told him we needed to speak to my dr before beginning this treatment. He said he’ll hold a spot open for 1 week! Lucky us! Buyer beware!

We attended one of the seminars and did not know what to expect. The hostess is a paid actress who really wants to make you feel welcome, great job. The presentation was very interesting and good way of selling their trust to you while you wait for a good meal. They start by presenting how much the United States wastes on health care each year, and how we rank in terms of medical coverage among developed countries. Then they get into prescription medicine and how many adds we have in the American market. All still very good, you almost had me fooled. But then, they go into Peripheral Neuropathy part and their scientific method and $ 50,000+ machines and how they will cure your condition. They even have the testimony of a couple older folks. They want you to commit to a $ 89 medical examination, but WAIT!, if you act now it is only $ 29. Get your credit cards out and let’s get you an appointment. They don’t take insurance for a reason. It’s not medical treatment, it’s chiropractic treatment.

For the small sum of $ 49 I agreed to 2 appointments for «A Consultation & Neuropathy Evaluation». The first appointment went relatively well until the «Dr.» tried to schedule my second appointment. He insisted that my wife accompany me to that appointment or there would not be one. I told him that I did not need my wife to accompany me and that I could not speak for her attendance. He kept pressuring me to find a way for her to attend and would not relent. It was then that I realized that at the second meeting they would try to sign me (us) up to a series of 10 – 12 pricy chiropractic sessions and would want both of our agreements on the dotted line! When I saw that they would not give in, I immediately terminated our relationship.
