Health Performance Chiropractic

This is a review for Dr. Set, a truly wonderful chiropractor! His calm and gentle presence immediately sets me at ease – even when I’m on edge out of pain or discomfort. His neck adjustments spot on, I won’t let anyone else adjust my neck ever again! (I’ve been to 10 other chiropractors in Sonoma County alone. No one compares!) Most chiropractors use a rotation motion to adjust the neck, which mine never takes well and usually feels worse after. His adjustments are perfect, deliberate, never too much in any way!
He takes the time to explain his process and educate every person on what their body is doing, how to connect with the sensation you’re feeling.
More than that the office offers spectacular care beyond the adjustment!!– percussion massage, and a bunch of physiotherapy! I’ve truly been everywhere else and no one offers as much comprehensive and expert care for the dollar! You can tell they really want to help you feel better as much as possible and they’ve got a lot of tools to get you there!
I really love coming in and Dr. Set never let’s me down!

What a phenomenal experience here at the health performance chiropractic. Dr. Set and his associates Heather and Heather, were absolutely amazing, extremely informative, very genuine and gentle and incredibly professional. I was extremely pleased with my overall experience and highly recommend their services!

I looked up this place by surfing the net.
I had an emergency, because I hurt my back just bending down in front of the kitchen sink. I went in the next day. New to the clinic. I had been feeling off balanced for alone time…
Nice clean office. Greeted by Dr. Darius, and then Dr. Set later on. They both assessed me on my initial visit. Educated me with their medical terminology.
Both nice people, they treat you like you matter and explain your imbalance to you. Just by standing alone Dr. Darius can see the imbalance in your body. I thought I was standing fine. I was adjusted by both Dr. Set and Dr. Darius… they don’t settle for less when it comes to trying to make you feel better.
I’ve went for the second time and found where else I’ve been imbalanced and I noticed it.
I’m going back again… once a week… its worth it.

I was rear ended on the freeway… and had whiplash. Having been rear-​ended before and knowing the pain of whiplash… I heard that the best thing to do for yourself is to be treated RIGHT AWAY… I made an appointment. Two days later I felt as though nothing had occurred… no pain… no lack of flexibility/movement…etc. Dr. D and his entire staff were very professional. They explained to me the reasons for their treatments. I was blown away with the care I received… and felt like I was their only patient. Thank you for getting me back to pre-​accident condition. :-)

Dr. Set has been such a blessing in my life! He is kind and gentle and his upper cervical adjustments have changed my life. His adjustments have alleviated my headaches and pain. Dr. Set has tools to measure progress that I had never seen before. It really shows me that his adjustments are helping me! I am so grateful for Dr. Set and his whole team at Health Performance Chiropractic and would highly recommend their office to anyone who is looking to be out of pain or maximize their wellness!

I had never seen a chiropractor before injuring my back while picking up a towel. After a couple of weeks of rest & iburpofen (and some useless suggestions from a PT at Kaiser), I was still hurting and in need of serious help. I checked Unilocal and read the great reviews about Dr. Bunyad. They arranged to see me in just a few days, which was a relief.
Dr. Bunyad took one look at me and noticed some old problems I had with my posture relating to bike crashes I’d been in. He listened attentively as I explained my recent injury, then thoughtfully proceeded through several tests of muscle reaction to isolate exactly where the problem was in my spine. I laid down gingerly on the table and he carefully adjusted several points along my lower, mid, and upper back. When I got up three minutes later, I felt like I could go skipping down the street — it was really fantastic. He also recognized how some muscles around my neck & shoulders had tensed up to compensate for the injury; an assistant did some ultrasonic PT on those areas & the doctor taped me up afterward. I left feeling pain-​free and relieved.
For injuries that are keeping you out of your usual routines, I would strongly recommend Dr. Bunyad and the great team at Health Performance Chiropractic.

Dr. Darius is an amazing and caring individual and a brilliant doctor. He will always go above and beyond to bring the best care to his patients and letting nothing get in his way. He is the doctor that most Hmo doctors wish they could be.

Amazing people work at Health Performance! The team has great energy and is very personable and attentive. You feel the nagging stress of why your there in the first place alleviate right when you walk in from the compassionate and knowledgable staff.
Dr. Darius (I call him Dr. D) is a gentle and understanding doctor who takes the time to empathetically listen and asses the issues. He took one look at me as I stood up on two feet and knew I had been in a car accident from the way my body held its self up! I never told him anything about it and he just knew. He is very knowledgable about the body and how it works. Every time I went in he would adjust me and I didn’t even know I had that many cracks left in back from the previous visit! He can always find the «sweet spots» that need adjusting.
I saw him for about a month everyday and I have never felt better! He fit me into his schedule and always accommodated the times I needed. I really appreciate Health Performance for helping me get back to my healthy life and feel great again!
He even told me about new technologies that he has that can help me with stubborn belly fat. Now that I feel this good in my body I’m going to try that next to improve my body more!
Thank you Dr. D

Wondering why this place has such good Unilocal ratings? Because they sincerely want to make you feel better and enjoy what they do. I was given 4 different chiropractors numbers when my back went out and I picked this place because i’ve learned to trust Unilocalers. Darius is great! I have been crooked and hunched over for two weeks and within 15 minutes of being in his presence, I was upright again and had less pain. What more could anyone ask for? I most definitely recommend this Chiropractor for anyone who is suffering from back pain and needs help today.

I moved to the area recently and found Health Performance Chiropractor through Unilocal.I called as an emergency and they squeezed me in. I was in serious pain because I was way over due for maintenance and nervous because I am a splondy case with a grade one slip. (fractured at Sacrum and L5 since I was 17) Dr. Bunyad his staff have a very excellent culture, welcoming, gentle and an outside the box thinking for each of their patients. They have a variety of pre op and post adjustment treatments including, icing, tens and ultrasound. Everyone is super cool and comforting. It’s a personalized approach to chiropractor with a Dr. who is very intuitive. I am a cash patient so I purchased the prepay wellness package to help with costs. Love it here and love the technology also.

Dr. Bunyad has been my chiropractor for the past few years and he knows exactly how to put me back together. When I burnt my fingers really badly he used his cold laser on them and the next day they were already feeling much better — I wasn’t expecting to be able to use them for a week but I was able to the next day. He and his laser are miracle workers!

Take my word for it!
As a hairstylist in the business for 10+ years I have definitely felt the effects of my job. Along with weight training and staying very active I had started to feel the toll I have put on my muscles/​joints/​spine etc. I have always been fearful of having my «bones cracked» but upon walking into Health Performance Chiro and meeting Judy (Who is such a hardworking little machine) and Dr D. I started to immediately feel at ease. Darius definitely made me feel like he wasn’t just adjusting me the same as everyone else, but that each little muscle/​bone in MY body he was taking into account. It was amazing to hear all the little adjustments and spots on my body that were out of whack and alignment. Not only did I feel better after the first visit but my flexibility and over all feeling in my body has vastly improved after a few visits. I would definitely recommend this office and Dr. Bunyad if your looking for any Chiropractic adjustments, laser work for scarring or anything else along those lines.
Health Performance is fantastic!

Excellent! I feel sooooo much better in my body. Darius is a beam of light, highly competent, great comunicator and skilled at what he does. I’ve been treated here after a car accident including: chiro adjustments, being «taped up» with kinseology tape, ultra sound, physical therapy, accupunture and laser treatments. I am feeling more balanced, healthy and energetic. Judy his assitant is just as excellent as he is, and adds a special touch. Darius & Judy both came at perect timing like angels in my life to help improve myself and alleviate pain. I leave here feeling good and happy. Highly recommended. :-)

So if you’re anything like me, you’ve probably been to a million different chiropractors, and they all want you to come back like 4 times a week to get adjusted. They do the same thing over and over again, and after you get tired of spending half your pay check on chiropractic care you quit going, and then realize you actually don’t feel any better, except that now, oh yeah, you’re broke.
I was so hopeful when I went to Dr. Darius because I spoke to Judy (his rockin’ assistant) beforehand and she had the same experience: going to everyone with no positive results, but she assured me that Dr. Darius would help.
My first visit with Dr. Darius was eye-​opening. Immediately he was able to show me how the adjustments affected the alignment in my body (and ability to perform certain exercises). In 2009 I ran my last marathon, and after a knee injury, I thought I’d never run again. In fact, I haven’t run at all since then because of this horrendous knee injury, but Dr. Darius assured me I would be running again in 2 – 3 weeks. I scoffed! I was totally skeptical, but I went along with it, saw him twice a week for a few weeks, started running again, and now I’m down to once a week, still running. I’ve also had chronic neck and shoulder pain, which has massively relieved since I’ve been going to Health Performance.
Definitely worth every penny! Thanks Dr. Darius!

Dr Bunyad is an amazing chiropractor, he works differently than other chiropractors that I have been to and makes you really feel comfortable. Less than a year ago I got into a head on collision and slipped my disk, I couldn’t move a bag of groceries without being in pain, after going from Dr. to Dr. I have found my permanent doctor, Dr Bunyad is well trained and has a lot of experience. I highly recommend to anyone who has pains to come to Health and performance Chiropractic office.
Also his acupuncturist Dr. Johnston is well experienced, educated and will make your body completely relaxed as I experienced.

Such a great experience !! Darius is an amazing person who is extremely thoughtful and intelligent. I have been twice now and will definitely be coming back.

Dr. D is a wizard who can fix just about anything. I’ve been coming to him the past few months and his comforting personality makes it easy to feel relaxed. He doesn’t just get you in to get you out. He genuinely cares about his patients and does everything he can to ensure they are taken care of properly and thoroughly. Go see him and I promise you’ll never go to anyone else!

Dr. Bunyad is an amazing chiropractor!
Long after being treated at Kaiser for whiplash; I was not functioning well. Hesitant to see a Chiropractor from past experiences and out of desperation I elected to ask Dr. Bunyad for his help. Dr. Bunyad threw all his energies into repairing the damaged areas. I am happy to say he was successful.
I continue to visit Dr. Bunyad for upkeep. I notice I sleep best just after my adjustments. Working in an office and playing with kids plus the stresses of everyday life play havoc on my body. Dr. Bunyad is very intuitive; he sees most of my ailments as I am walking into the adjustments room.
Dr. Bunyad is the best chiropractor ever!

I give Dr. Darius 5 stars, because Unilocal won’t allow for 10,000… which is probably near the amount of hours this man has spent training and refining his adjustment. Getting adjusted by Darius is like having a beam of lightning shot through your soul! He is quick, he is specific, and yet gentle enough that you feel like you are being honored in the entire process.
I have been adjusted by over hundreds of chiropractors, and Darius is among the top of the the list. He is Grade A, cream of the crop. a true chiropractic All-​Star!
When I’m in Santa Rosa, there is no question who I go to see. Thank you Darius for everything!

I have been going to Darius for a long time. He does great work! Every time I go in I’m in some pain or discomfort but when I leave I feel refreshed an ready for the day!
He always takes his time. Not only does it insure he does quality work but it also makes you feel welcome and you aren’t just another patient.
Darius and his team have positive and outgoing attitudes which is just the environment I want when I see a chiropractor!
If I could give him more than five stars he would have 10! I would only recommend going to Health Performance Chiropractic!
Thanks for everything you do!
