Lighthouse Wellness Center

I would have to side with David C and his comments about Dr. Ross. I too seen him once and only once. After the staff being rude at the front desk and then he treats you like he is doing you a big favor by giving you an adjustment, that you pay for. I also didn’t really need to here about how he is from Canada and how bad there medical system is and how Obama Care will shorten your life by something like 15 years? Either way when you are in pain because of a spinal injury you really don’t care about Dr. Ross’s personal feelings. That being said I would say that Dr. Ross’s response is just a way to cover his butt and not to look bad. The truth always comes to light.

Just had my 2^nd adjustment with Dr. Trisha. First ever adjustment in my life was last week and wow what a difference! I’m 27 wks pregnant so I was a little hesitant starting to get adjusted this far in, but I’m so glad that I did! I highly recommend this office is you’re looking for a great chiro! I’ll be back next week!

The doctor was knowledgeable. Staff was very nice, however, the woman at the front desk told me she phoned my insurance and that I was fully covered, but I received a bill for my visits several months later. When I asked about the bill the front desk woman was unable to tell me why she either lied or was misinformed about my insurance.

This is my first Unilocal review, after using the app for literally years. After my experience here, I found it imperative that I create an account to post this review.
I was directed here from a Groupon package, that was 1 adjustment and a 30 minute massage all for $ 49. My doctor was Dr. Ross, and I have nothing bad to say about how he practices or my experience with him. A very friendly, personable guy.
My issue arises with their philosophy. As someone who works in the medical field, the cornerstone of the medical profession philosophy, as anybody knows, is «do no harm.» This comes with the assumption that you give every patient the highest extent of your knowledge and advice based on sound medical advice and empirical observation.
When I met Dr. Ross, the very first day he was quick to point out how he hates the medical field. This is understandable because many doctors definitely have a negative view towards chiropractic. This is where it gets ugly: he went on to vent to me for the next 20 minutes about how horrible vaccinations are and how they aren’t necessary and that they are imposed by the government to control you. I wish I were kidding but I’m not.
Later, I went out to the lobby, where they advertised their program titled a «vaccine health talk.» This program is a fancy way of indoctrinating people to tell them that vaccinating your kids aren’t important. In fact, if you go to their website at
, you will see that they advertise their vaccination seminar as, and I quote from their website: «Vaccine Dangers: We outline all the myths surrounding vaccinations and immunizations and shows you how to keep your family healthy without injecting them with dangerous drugs!»
I am literally flabbergasted. The reasons that people don’t die from polio or tetanus or measles anymore are vaccinations. And they are preying on indoctrinating people with their agendas.
Upon looking at their chiropracter biographies on their website, it says that several of them graduated with degrees in biology. Anyone with a degree in biology would know how the immune system works, and what primary and secondary immune responses are, and how clonal selection works to create antibodies to previously exposed antigens. This is not propaganda– this is basic human biology and the premise of how vaccinations work.
My question to everyone is this: how can you trust your body and spinal health to someone who doesn’t believe in the principles of basic biology? Aren’t chiropractic (along with all healthcare professions) supposed to be built on the foundations of human biology?
If you want to go to this chiropractic center, all I have to say is be warned. If I can’t trust these guys to understand the principles of the immune system and how vaccinations work, I definitely can’t trust them with my spinal cord.
Peace and good riddance, I got my massage, and I’ll never be back.

I found this place on Groupon! My back was hurting a lot and my best friend suggested I see a chiropractor. They had a good deal and were able to see me within half an hour.
After taking a X-​ray on my spine they let me know, on a follow up appointment, that I had mild scoliosis and neck issues. They set me up with an affordable monthly plan for the next 6 – 9 months.
My dr is Dr.Drake. She is so awesome and very pretty too! And boy she cracks my neck so good. I haven’t had any back pain since I’ve been coming. Thank god! Looking to see how my back and neck improve during the next couple of months. No metal rods for this girl ;)

Dr. Trisha is amazing! I was terrified of getting adjusted due to a bad chiropractor experience. She walked me through everything slowly and her adjustments are lightning fast. I highly recommend CHC and Dr. Trisha Wimbs.

Great team! Dr Trisha Wimbs, Dr Ross, and Ashton are great people! Extended family referred me there and I see why they keep going back even though it is a 40-​minute drive. They truly care.
I am adding further to my earlier review here. I have been seeing Dr Wimbs for chiropractic care and she is great. She is also the reason I now have my dream job. She is really uplifting and awesome! I have been seeing Kat Fleming for massage therapy and she has been hugely aiding in the healing process when I started that about a month later, referred by my chiropractor. My neck and back were affected when my car was rear-​ended and the tension in both tissues and muscles have been a tough factor.
The other day, Dr Ross filled in the schedule and popped my neck and back really good. The pop in my back was burning and it was the first time I was able to go face-​down on the massage table without being in pain. Whether it was timing or skill or both, I don’t know. I just know that my neck has not been so bad while sleeping and I don’t feel the need to try cracking my neck on my own throughout the day. So I highly recommend him in addition to Dr Wimbs and Kat Fleming.
I found out later that Ashton was the initial massage therapist but she also runs the front desk. Ashton signed me up with Kat. She could’ve signed me up with herself just like Dr Ross signed me up with Dr Wimbs. I think that really goes to show what a team they truly are. They look out for each other and for their clients.

I woke up one Wednesday with a mysterious pain. I went about my daily business, hobbling through crossfit and work, thinking it would work its way out. The next morning, I could barely get out of bed. I was in a state of panic, because I had a 15k race in San Francisco that Saturday; I had paid for it and trained for it– and had a lovely weekend trip planned with friends. Dr. Katie squeezed an exam into her schedule that day (the other chiropractors I was able to reach all tried to schedule me for the following week). Even though I was a last minute appointment, I was seen at the scheduled time and Dr. Katie was attentive, but efficient. During the exam, she was educating me about posture and alignment while gently manipulating my body to see how my range of motion was affected. She promised to look at my xrays that evening and fit me in for my first adjustment Friday morning.
Magically, when I woke up Friday, the pain was already gone and I was moving normally! I did still have some tenderness– more of an awareness that a problem was there, rather than pain. Sailed through my adjustment and managed to stay mobile through the run and the hiking up and down the hills of SF.
I am still working with Dr. Katie, because that injury– whatever caused it– still flares up. But, with her help, it has not interfered with my life activity at all.
In addition to working on my alignment, Dr. Katie is friendly and supportive. She chat amicably– remembers what’s happening in your life and makes personal inquiries– she treats you like a friend, not a sack of bones and muscles. She also offers advice in nutrition and other healthy habits.
I’d recommend Dr. Katie to anyone who is seeking chiropractic care!

They are absolutly wonderful. I have been to other chiropractors and I can now say im sure they had no idea what they were doing. Dr. Tricia is amazing and truly cares about you. I was in a bad accedent as a child and I can not even remember a time before I was in pain and Dr. Tricia has helped to make my life enjoyable again. I would never go to another chiro. again. Also the massage therapist who is wonddrful

I have always had back problems. I had gone to a local Chiropractor for years but I wasn’t getting better. Then I met Dr. Ross, he has truly taken an interest in my well being and after one week I was feeling great. I was doing things like mowing the yard which I hadn’t done in 2 years. I can truly say Dr. Ross and his staff are awesome.
I couldn’t imagine the condition that I would be in now if I had not met him and his staff.

Have gone in twice now, very friendly staff and informative. Would not hesitate to refer someone here.

I am a huge fan of Dr. Ross and his staff. He he has a genuine concern for his patients and I believe he’s invested in helping me improve my health. His kindness and actions prove it. He offers regular health talks in his office and I’ve been to a couple. I found each one to be of great benefit to me and I have implemented changes based upon what I’ve learned.
To give some background: I was a regular patient of another chiropractor for years. I liked him so I was loyal to him. I’ll call him Dr. A. There was a time of about 3 months when I lost insurance and couldn’t see Dr. A anymore. While he was getting approved with my new insurance company, I found Dr. Ross who was already approved on their list and began to see him. I had a beginning visit done with Dr. Ross and he measured the angle of my neck so he would know where to begin.
Once Dr. A got approved with my company I went back to him as I had planned.
After two years with Dr. A he decided to not take my insurance because they were not good about payment (totally understandable.) Although after 6 years of being a patient he just let me go, no offer to work with me, nothing. That was his prerogative– I don’t expect doctors to work for free.
So back to Dr. Ross I went. He still accepts my insurance. Because it had been 2 years he did another analysis of the position of my neck. In just 2 years my neck had gotten much worse despite continued visits! This was upsetting. I had been going as regularly as I was allowed by insurance. My health had also seriously declined. I now was experiencing disturbing neurological symptoms, a result of an organic cognitive impairment. My body was also expressing pain through fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. Many functions within my nervous system were upset or impaired. I knew I needed regular care but because of these problems I’ve been unable to work and bring in income.
We began treatment and he wanted to see me every week (now that’s what I actually need!) After my insurance visits for the year were up he began to work with me financially so I could continue the care I desperately need.
I can’t even tell you the level of my gratitude. It brings tears to my eyes. I’m only 44! Not old enough to have the symptoms I have.
The other bonus is that he adjusts for TMJ problems. Ya hoo! I’ve had TMJ pain for over 20 years and no treatment offered has ever helped me. I have to take ibuprofen just to go to the dentist so I can hold my jaw open while they do a cleaning. When Dr. Ross began adjusting my jaw I think it finally sunk into my awareness– He is a godsend.
As if that’s not enough last night the class I attended in his office was called «How to Build a Titanium Nervous System.» It was information about the exact nuerological things I am experiencing and need help with.
I was definitely guided to the person who could help me most! I bet he can help you, too.
So, so grateful.
