Stability Health Center – Dr. Justin Favreau PLLC

I am a chiropractor located in Olympia, WA. I have many patients that move to Seattle for school or work that need a chiropractor. All of my patients I refer to Stability Health Center always contact me after their first visit and thank me for the recommendation. The staff is easy to deal with, and the doctors are very caring and down to earth. I highly recommend this office for anyone looking for some amazing doctors in the Seattle area.

Last October, I went to see Dr Favreau for some help in relieving pain in my back, hips and legs. I had just completed a major job where I was on my feet for up to 17 hours a day and I was in a great deal of pain. Dr. Favreau accurately diagnosed a skeletal issue and created a treatment plan to correct the problem. This year, after spending 9 days walking 8 – 10 miles a day, my feet do not hurt. My back does not hurt. My hips do not hurt. I am actually amazed at how good my body is feeling and I know that it is because of the work that I did under Dr. Favreau’s care. I just want you to know how grateful I am to you for diagnosing my issues and for providing an clear and comprehensive plan to improve my wacky structure. It is really amazing to me that I lived with the discomfort for so long. If you are seeking an honest, thoughtful and professional team to take care of you, Stability Health Care is where you need to go. Thank you!

I am in love with this company and the people who work there! I encourage everyone who’s looking to improve their quality of life through better health to stop by to see what they can do for you! From chiropractic, fitness classes to nutrition education you will be glad you spent the time on yourself!
They also have a location in West Seattle with more great people ready to get you on track to better health!

By far THE best chiropractor in Seattle! Dr Justin Favreau and his super friendly staff make you feel right at home. His corrective chiropractic approach not only eliminates pain IMMEDIATELY from the source, but they work to correct the posture and make sure the pain, headaches, and fatigue never come back again.
They also have Power Plates, which if you have never experienced as part of a workout or therapy, YOU WILL LOVE IT!
Highly recommended!!!

I had sprained my back right before a hiking trip — got an appointment and treatment. The staff is super friendly — they were flexible and were able to schedule multiple appointments on the same day so I could better before the trip. Everyone seems to be knowledgeable about the subject matter, insurance plans etc. Highly recommended

Been seeing Dr Justin off and on for a few years now. He always gives great care but the most impressive thing is he is clear, concise and not going to give you a lot of fluff. This not a quick crack and go kind of treatment, this very comprehensive, find a solution to the problem kind of treatment.

I have been treated by Dr. Favreau and Dr. Campbell and recommend them both.
Dr. Favreau helped with my back problems and after just a few sessions the pain is way down.
Dr. Campbell is treating my knee with prolotherapy which is an alternative to a steroid treatment that I very much disagree with. I’m happy to have found a doctor that wants to treat me with out drugs that have heavy side effects.

Everyone in the clinic is super nice and great at what they do. Justin Favreau, Ryan Campbell and John. Great location and environment too.

Let me start by saying I have a little more insight into spinal pathology than your average consumer and think that my review should carry a little more weight. I have spent that last 6 years as a medical device sales rep specializing in Spinal implants and devices. I have also seen 2 other chiropractors that had very busy practices but I did not write a favorable review.
Dr Favreau has much more holistic approach to treating spinal pathology. The other chiros I went 2 did a very basic exam (consisting of some xrays and a short physical exam) and then spent about 5 minutes every visit on a quick adjustment. Although I this addressed my symptoms it did nothing for the underlying issues. The reality is that the muscles and ligaments that attach to your spinal vertebrae have as much to do with supporting proper alignment as the shape of your spinal column. Unless you actually address these structures, you will never be free of constant adjustments.
Dr Fav did a a comprehensive intake exam and explained exactly what the issues were and what his plan for treatment would include. When I told him my back ground I was really impressed with his depth of clinical and research based evidence that supported his recommendations. In addition to adjustments he put me on an intensive traction and rehab plan including PT. His approach has worked and his plan was right on. He corrected my spinal curvature issues and I have been pain free. Dr Favreau was also very friendly and easy to engage with… I highly recommend him!

I started seeing Dr. Rachel Giordano in Sept 2012 about 6 months after having my baby and desperately needing to lose some weight! I did the Ideal Protein Weight loss program and lost 38 pounds in about 4 months. I was happy with the program and I enjoyed working with Rachel. She is straight forward and didn’t let me get away with cheating on the diet which is a good thing! I continue to see her for other health care needs and really enjoy working with her.

Dr. Rachel Giordano is THE WORST doctor I have ever met. She hardly seems like a doctor and more like a salesman. I found them through google and emailed the office explaining about my weight issues and that I was diagnosed with PCOS (basically a hormonal imbalance) which also causes weight gain, asking if they specialize in this and could help me. I wanted a second opinion and a doctor who knew how to help me handle this and my weight issues. I received an email back from Dr. Rachel Giordano saying she has helped lots of women with this issue and could «definitely help». I came in for a visit on a Friday and had some blood drawn. At the appointment, without seeing any blood work to know if this was a hormonal balance that could be helped with supplements or medicine, Dr. Rachel Giordano recommended their Ideal Protein weight loss plan, which is like a Jenny Craig meal replacement and I would have to pay $ 350 to sign up. I told her I can’t really afford it, but would think about it. Rachel said she would call me on Monday with my blood test results. Later that evening after researching the meal replacement plan I emailed Dr. Giordano that I simply could not afford it, but that it seemed like a South Beach diet I could do on my own with her help. Her response was very short and blunt stating «You cannot do it on your own and will not lose weight without the program». So as a doctor her only form of treatment is a meal replacement program? She went to med school to sell just this? After over a week of not hearing back from Stability Spine and Wellness about my blood work, I emailed Dr. Rachel Giordano asking about my test result and received an email that Rachel was out of the office, which no one told me about. I was leaving on a trip out of the country so I called the office asking if someone else can call today with my results. Turns out Dr. Rachel Giordano came into the office that day back from her trip and emailed me that she «doesn’t feel comfortable giving results over the phone and I would have to come in for another visit to go over my results», which would cost another $ 65 copay. So out of no where she now changed her mind and I’m expected to come in and pay! It seems that because I didn’t agree to do the Ideal Protein plan I was no longer an interesting client since I wouldn’t buy into their system.
After lots of phone calls, emails and arguing, Dr. Rachel Giordano emailed me my blood work, which turned out to just be a general CBC. She didn’t even do a hormone panel, which is why I went to her in the first place. It just seemed like a very lazy attempt to help me and get me to buy into their Ideal Protein plan.
THIS PLACE WAS A SCAM AND A RIP OFF! I paid a total of $ 90 for my visit and didn’t receive any help or service. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Fav for about a year now, and I’m a big fan of the way he treats me and runs his business. He’s passionate about what he’s doing and it shows. You can tell when someone cares about their work and he’s certainly one of those people.
I first went to him by way of a recommendation from another highly respected chiro from California. She mentioned him before anyone else, so I followed through on her advice. My spine health is improving slowly but surely and the new space he’s running his practice out of is super nice.
I’ve been happy with the way he’s worked with me about payments, insurance, etc. as well, so some of the other reviews don’t really resonate with me. He’s been totally straight from the start and the pricing seems fair to me even with basic insurance.
Here’s to happy spines!

As a naturopath I am very holistic about the healing process of the body. I am all about physiology, structure and nutrition. Dr. Justin Favreau takes spinal wellness to a whole new level. He’s thorough, gentle and holistic. He looks at structure from different angles. Bone, muscle and ligaments. That is so key. Not only does he adjust your spine through hands-​on manipulation, he stretches ligaments and strengthen muscles. It’s about as well-​rounded an approach as I’ve seen. I recommend him regularly to my patients suffering with pain or postural issues, and have seen amazing results.

Save your money and find somewhere else to go.
I visited Dr. Favreau after roughly two months of physical therapy elsewhere for repetitive use injury that was affecting my right arm and mid-​back. The PT helped but several coworkers mentioned that seeing a (different) chiropractor had helped a lot with their similar issues. Since that office was not as convenient for me, I headed over to Align. (FYI, though the clinic front says «Align», the paperwork is for «Stability Spine and Wellness».)
Dr. Favreau and I met to discuss my present injury and past incidents, and then he used some posture analysis equipment and software, and then took a whole bunch of x-​rays and did a few adjustments. I returned a few days later to discuss the x-​rays, posture analysis, and get a massage (which was pretty mediocre, by the way, but that was a different person so I’ll leave it at that).
For those two visits he billed my insurance $ 920. (including office visits averaging about $ 200 each and digital spine x-​rays at $ 70, $ 100, and $ 150.) Thankfully, most of it was covered. His suggested treatment plan would have taken at least three months and cost several thousand dollars out of pocket (i.e., it was waaay more than insurance would cover, and it’s not like I have bad insurance) but of course would be a little cheaper if paid all up front. Then he sent me an e-​mail comparing the «small» few thousand dollar cost of his treatment to a $ 28k back surgery that might be needed later on if I don’t fix my back AND mailed a paper letter full of ellipses (I like ellipses, but come on, you’re a professional…) to recommend him to friends/​family/​etc. Good grief. I’m not going to recommend someone who hasn’t even treated me yet! Overall he seemed set on gimmicky ‘features’ and does not communicate professionally outside of his office. I noticed afterward that he bought the domain «seat​tle​fa​voritechi​ro​prac​tor​.com». Seriously.
I ended up going to see the chiropractor my coworkers recommended and not only is my injury almost completely resolved after about two months and no ridiculous charges to either me OR my insurance company, no one there sent me hokey, poorly written letters and e-​mails. What I did get was a doctor who focused more on actually treating (not just moving the table up and down a few times and then using the vibrating gun thing) and developing exercises I could do on my own to facilitate the healing rather than bringing out shiny but unnecessary equipment and charging me thousands…

Dr. Favreau is hands down the best chiropractor I’ve ever had. Always engaged, always knowledgeable, friendly, and caring. After having multiple problems with back and neck pain, Dr. Favreau was always supportive of new and innovative treatments that actually worked! His exercises and adjustments will leave you feeling like a new (wo)man! I could not recommend Dr. Favreau more highly.

I have been a customer of Align Chiropractic for over eight months and I couldn’t be happier with the service and support of Dr Favreau and his office staff. Dr. Favreau worked with me to put together a comprehensive plan to resolve my back and neck pain rather than just treating the symptoms. Through regular adjustments, special exercises, and traction, Dr. Favreau has been able to rehabilitate and reestablish curvature in my neck. In addition to the great results, I look forward to seeing the friendly team at Align Chiropractic.
In addition to leveraging the chiropractic services at Align, I also participated in their Ideal Protein weight loss program. In a two month period I went form 165lbs to my ideal weight of 140lbs. It was a lot of work, but the coaching and support of Align’s staff made it possible. Sometimes all you need is a nudge in the right direction and a little support, and you’d be amazed at what you can achieve. I have been able to successfully keep the weight off.
Thank you Dr Favreau and Align Chiropractic team! I haven’t felt this great in years!

I have been receiving chiropractic adjustments from Dr Favreau in order to stay healthy and maintain good posture. He takes time to listen, is attentive to details, his office provides state– of –the — art chiropractic equipment and treatment tools. Dr Favreau is highly skilled, competent and has a great attitude. One of the best chiropractors in town with a range of treatment options.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Favreau roughly since March of 2011. I’m undergoing CBP (Chiropractic BioPhysics) therapy for some pretty signficant neck issues related to an old injury that finally caught up with me.
Dr. F listened, thoughtfully responded to my every concern, and designed a program to begin recovering from my issues. The program involved lots of neck traction, frequent adjustments, partnering with my own Physical Therapist, lots of homework (read.you have to work at this too), and lots of patience.
If you saw my xrays and MRI, you’d probably say I should have headed straight for surgery… but the problem was… not just one area of the cervical spine was affected… it was significant degredation of discs and bone growth into the nerve roots at 4 locations. Dr. F was, frankly my last hope. I’ve been told I’m not a good candidate for surgical intervention with this issue.
After three months of this, my condition is significantly improved. I have greatly improved neck range of motion, and very little (if any) pain. I have some nerve issues because, frankly, the damage has already done. That will, hopefully, resolve itself over time. A chiropractor can’t fix damaged nerves.
I’m very pleased with Dr. Favreau, and the CBP program he champions. In the right hands, it has merit. In my experience, Dr. F has the right hands. If you’re in similar shoes, I highly recommend this, and Dr. Favreau.

Seattle’s best back-​hip-​neck-​whole body mobility specialist
I have been consistently BLOWN AWAY with the quality of care, wide range of complimentary tools, and undeniable skill found with Dr. Justin Favreau at Align Chiropractic.
I have seen dozens upon dozens of practitioners my entire life, with varied or little results.
I can say with confidence that Dr. Favreau is among the very top in his field, if not at the very tip top.
The team of people at Align Chiropractic is stunning!!! First of all, parking is free, easy, close and always available. Then, you’re greeted by their bubbly receptionist, perhaps you’d like a cup of tea? Oh, then let’s utilize these amazing wobble chairs to get our joints loose and ready for adjustment! Then it’s time for some one on one care with the good doctor on his amaazing drop table, before choosing between a host of other amazing tools to assist in healing: inversion table, a host of traction devices, perhaps some more one on one time with his Rehabilitation Specialist –whatever your body is needing, this a a good place to start/​finish.
I was taken care of better than I knew was previously possible. They have raised the bar, consistently and with results. It truly is a new approach to chiropractic –and wellness.
Eternally grateful, mobility .I had missed thee!

Dr. Justin Favreau is an outstanding chiropractor. There is no one else in Seattle, or the Pacific Northwest for that matter, that I would recommend more strongly. Dr. Favreau is compassionate, considerate, and efficient. He takes x-​rays of every patient and has a collaborative discussion with each individual before beginning treatment. I have felt incredibly comfortable speaking with him about not only the wellness of my spine, but my overall health as well.
I first sought Dr. Favreau’s treatment after having been in 3 car accidents in 18 months. The curve in my neck was gone, and in 6 months of care, I have seen nearly a complete restoration! His certification in the revolutionary new Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) rehab program has made all the difference. I don’t even want to imagine how much pain I would be in if I did not have the wonderful, knowledgeable help of Dr. J.
This is saying a lot as I was raised by a chiropractor! A great one at that! My mother’s practice, however, is down in California– so I will be seeing Dr. Favreau as long as I live in Seattle and beyond!
If you’re still unsure, feel free to give the office a call. Rissy the office manager even checked my insurance for free, so I knew going in day one what I was going to be paying and what to expect down the road. A fantastic healing experience all the way around.
