San Diego Integrative Spine Center

I am one happy patient and customer! I felt better than I have in about 11 years in 2 visits– Dr. Spinato is Dr. Lifesaver! I’ve been desperate in my journey for relief and sort of gave up that I’d be anything more than semi-​disabled, no longer to run or do the yoga that I did daily for years and years. Anyone who knows me understands the level of annoyance, pain and discomfort that my neck, back and feet issues have brought me. Since my car accident in 2007, I have spent $$$$ and years in seeking relief whether it be physical therapy (3x’s a week for 4 years), surgeries, and monthly or weekly massages since 2007! None of that compares to the relief I’ve received in just 3 visits so far.
I’m on a plan for 7 visits and at $ 67 a pop, it’s a bargain compared to what I have spent only to feel worse or temporary relief. I think after you go, you’d see that he could be charging much more for the results. Each visit to the Dr., I am getting better and feel capable of going on a run for the first time a long time. I can’t wait to see how far I can recover and plan on bringing my sons and referring all my friends because Dr. Spinato truly is a healer that clearly knows his science.
He does not accept insurance, but will bill for you.

I have been going here for a long time and Dr. Spinato has helped me so much! He can do lots more than help your spine. Whether it’s snoring, allergies, or dizziness, he’s on it, and he always at the least helps a problem become less frequent. Such a nice guy and very nice worker named Roma to greet you when you come in. So many wonderful experiences, so much has changed since Dr. Spinato helped. You won’t regret giving him a try. He has over 30 years of experience, and he understands almost any spine-​related symptom. Look no further for helpful, friendly spine care.

I would give way more than five stars! I have been treated by Dr. Dan Spinato for the last twenty years! I would recommend him to everyone. Best chiropractor i have ever been treated by.

I went to Dr. Spinato after having vertigo. After the 1^st visit I felt better immediately. I continued to go the prescribed amount of times he thought it would take to get me to be 100%. And I did indeed feel like myself again. I now have full range of my neck and can look up and down without feeling dizzy. I currently go back every 3 months to get re-​adjusted just to keep my body feeling healthy and in full motion. I am so happy I found Dr. Spinato, the treatment I have received has been life changing. I’ve never felt better :)

What a disappointment. I was truly hopefully at first. Then on my 3^rd or 4^th visit, something just wasn’t right, aside from the fact the man couldn’t keep eye contact with my eyes (only the front of my shirt). They always took my payment before the visit. But on this day the lady at the desk simply told me they would be taking my payment after my session. The session was horrible, I recently found out after seeing another chiropractic doctor (one who takes correct x-​rays) that I was horribly over adjusted and my correct x-​rays clearly showed it. Then after the session, I went to the desk to check out and pay and that’s when I was told that he uped his rates. I’m sorry but, really, they couldn’t tell me before? No. No thank you. Everything happens for a reason and im so glad it did. The doctor I’m with now is a God sent.

I was in a car accident two days before i went to this place. I was in quite a lot of pain, my back felt like i was being stabbed by nails and wires etc. basically i was in a very uncomfortable place i couldn’t sleep well i had to take sleeping pills two days in a row. Dr. Spinato was very professional, intelligent, and supportive. Everything he said was shocking to me, i had a leg longer than the other, and my weak side was my dominant side. It took him less than 3 mins to adjust everything back into place. Dr. Would usually prescribe meds for muscles but this was SPINE work i needed done. I was scared it would hurt to be readjusted but it was amazing! I’ve lived in PQ my whole life and this place has been here so long, their number on the side the building facing carmel mtn. Road was the first phone number i remembered. I was a bad kid, i would dial their number from my house phone, when those were around lol.
Overall great experience, great staff, great location, not too expensive at all, and i definitely say money well spent!

I have seen many chiropractors over the last 30 years, and Dan Spinato is by far one of the very best. His practice is several cuts above typical chiropractic treatment. He focuses on finding the source of the issue and correcting with adjustments and nutrition through supplementation. I recall the first visit with him, I was skeptical because he didn’t just adjust my neck the way all other chiropractors had done. He said that wasn’t why I had neck pain — so he adjusted the source (which wasn’t near my neck) and asked me to give him a few visits to correct this very long-​term pain that kept returning after other Chiropractor’s adjustments. The amazing thing is it was fixed within 3 – 4 visits and I have not needed that old classic twisting neck adjustment again! Over the years, I’ve been impressed with his constant search to learn and apply better approaches to improve the quality of life for his patients.

For close to 10 years now, Dr. Spinato has consistently helped my family and I maintain optimal health and structural functionality. With his many advanced techniques, including Nucca, and his nutritional advice, he has helped us heal everything from low-​back and neck issues, to rib misalignment to adrenal stress. He approaches health from a whole body standpoint, looking at the interaction and dependence of different parts of the body, which makes him unique and very effective. I remember one of the first times I went to him with tightness in my neck and upper back and he didn’t touch my neck, but instead adjusted my ankle and my neck and upper back immediately released and felt better. He explained that the source of the issue was my ankle and if he had only worked on my neck, the problem would have persisted. Thank you Dr. Spinato for all the great work you do and I feel comforted knowing you are there to help when we need it!

I recently experienced a lower back injury at the gym and went to see Dr. Spinato. Unfortunately, after 4 visits his treatment had no positive impact. Beware, his methods are unorthodox to most chiropractors! During my third visit, Dr. Spinato had me hold a small bottle of wheat germ oil and told me the energy from it would be beneficial. On my forth visit, he prescribed some other supplement. He seemed to be more interested in trying to treat «other» spinal and ankle issues rather than my acute low back pain. Had I had known that he was into these unorthodox techniques, I would have never wasted my time and money. I share this so you are aware going in. Good luck.

Dr. Spinato has been an answer to my prayers. After suffering of unbearable pain (left lower hip, knee and ankle) for years he has been the only professional who didn’t want to prescribe me countless amounts of medication for my injury. Before I met with him I honestly felt so helpless and somewhat succumbed to the idea that I just had to accept a lifetime of pain and agony. I wish I was exaggerating!
After a consultation with Dr. Spinato he was able to give me so much hope but I was somewhat skeptical at first. I decided to start his treatments and I couldn’t believe how soon I started to feel an overall improvement! Any doubt that I had went out the window right after our first session. For the first time in a very long time I was not in daily pain. My life has changed immensely because of his amazing dedication and knowledge to my care. I feel extremely thankful and would recommend anyone to come to him for healing! He definitely knows what he is doing and you will be in very good hands:) Did I mention that his staff is amazingly welcoming and friendly?

Dr. Spinato is great! I CrossFit on average 4 – 5 days a week and notice sometimes it takes longer to warm up certain range of motions than others or I’d be sore in one particular area longer than normal. Dr. Spinato has helped assess and alleviate tension in my problem areas. Also long term treatment has immensely helped with migraine headaches I would get time to time.
I highly recommend visiting their office. They have great hours and just renovated their lobby; it looks great! A great chiropractor for active individuals in any sport!

I have been going to Dr. Spinato for years. I have significant scoliosis, allergies and migraines. He has been instrumental in helping relieve my migraines and allergies when no other treatments have worked. He is quite knowledgeable, pursues the latest research and always willing to go above and beyond to help me. I like the fact that he integrates holistic approaches into his treatments.

Dr. Spinato has been a tremendous help in my back/​neck issues. His approach is personal and individual and effective.
He and his staff are courteous, friendly, well-​informed, and helpful. I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

Dr. Dan has served our family well and faithfully for 10+ years. He is talented and intuitive beyond measure, always listening, learning and seeking solutions for patients.
We first sought treatment after a car accident. He fixed my neck using NUCCA and then proceeded to even the length of my legs, hips, shoulders and feet. Next, he kept me comfortable and straight during pregnancy and when baby came, he adjusted our baby who was weak on one side of his body (Biocranial). Later, as my very active toddlers and boys started surfing, BMX and Kung Fu, he made sure that they were aligned and straight.
Dr. Dan has taught us so much about our bodies, we now recognize what it feels like «to be active AND pain free». A vital partner for optimal health and maintenance, you won’t find a better champion for your family.
Jaime at the front desk and Debbie in billing are very helpful and will take great care of you too !!!

Dr. Spinato is my hero! Have been seeing him for over 3 years and by leaps and bounds the best Chiropractor or ANY doctor for that matter I’ve ever been to!
There have been times when he’s helped with back/​neck issues, emotions, virus’ and now my Lyme disease. I bring my kids to him as well and he’s great with them, especially the athletes! I skip the orthopaedic now and go straight to Dr. Spinato! He understands the body so well it’s like having a crystal ball!
Awesome, awesome, awesome! He should wear a cape to work everyday!

After two treatments, I needed to up my weights at the gym. My vision also improved. The Oasis System chair is amazing. I also learned that nine of my supplements were not necessary and reduced them to three Standard Process through Dr. Spinato. I have been to many 101 level chiropractors. I am
trained in emotional healing, so I now recognize dedication and gifting. Dr. Spinato has both. His evaluation is targeted and informational. His treatments are delicate and effective. Balance is key in life. I am 100% confident in this level 707 Dr. Spinato.

I had migraines for 6+ years. A friend told be about this magical thing called a «NUCCA» adjustment. I had tried acupuncture, diet changes, stretching, all sorts of medicines/drugs…nothing cured my migraines.
It sounds too good to be true but Dr. Spinato did 2 or 3 NUCCA adjustments and POOF! Migraine-​free. It’s the real deal!
I think NUCCA secretly stands for «New Unicorn Crack Cure Awesomeness». And crack as in, you know, neck crack/​adjustment. Get it? Unicorns cure migraines!
Exams/​adjustments range around 55 – 65 each but they offer great bulk discounts. This was the best flex spending account money I ever spent. I did a series of 10+ additional adjustments over the course of two months, and I felt so straight and good posture-​y. :)
Stop complaining about your pain in the whatever, just come see him and get ‘er done!

Dr. Spinato is the best chiropractor I’ve had. I had been living in chronic pain for 5 years and after seeing almost 10 different doctors, he has been the only one to help me. I was having weekly migraines, neck pain, back pain and sciatica. He was the only one who clearly understood what was causing me all my pain, I can proudly say that I am almost 100% pain free. If you have see several doctors or are lucky enough to have just found this guy, I highly recommend you see him, you will be very pleased with the results. If you have any questions please feel free to message me.

I found Dr. Spinato after having seen two other chiropractors. The other chiropractors were good in certain ways and clearly honest and caring, but I got tired of going week after week and my back and neck pain never really went away for very long. Felt like the adjustments I was getting with those other chiropractors were just short-​term bandaids.
I found Dr. Spinato online when I searched «NUCCA» which is a type of chiropractor who specializes in upper cervical issues (the neck area and those top vertabrae). These are my problem areas from too much computer/​desk work and writing, and I felt I needed someone who really knows this area as a specialty. Dr. Spinato was the only NUCCA chiropractor listed in San Diego, so although his office is 30 minutes from my home, I made the drive to give it a try. This was the first time I’d gone to a medical care professional without a referral from someone I know, so I went into it skeptical.
Dr. Spinato has been fantastic. I find him to be a gifted chiropractor who thinks outside the box. He did adjustments that no chiropractor had ever done on me, and although I was skeptical at first, they worked. He’s a very nice guy too. Very caring, devoted to his patients, passionate about his work.
Details: He told me right at the start, after doing the intake and x-​rays, that I would need to come a certain number of appointments and the goal was to get my back healed so I wouldn’t need to keep coming regularly. He said that once the structural misalignment and other issues had been corrected, I would need to come only for tune-​ups every few months. He believes in long-​term healing, not just an adjustment that will revert back in a matter of days or weeks.
I followed his protocol (which involved coming once a week for about 4 months — yes, my neck and back was pretty messed up). After those 4 months, my back and neck and shoulders were feeling better than they had in literally 3 years. I definitely noticed long-​term improvement and healing that hadn’t happened with any other chiropractor. I am now seeing him only every 6 – 8 weeks, depending on how tight my neck gets from the hours I spend writing and on the computer.
His office never calls me to try to get me in, even if a long time has passed since my last appointment (which is a relief, since one of the other chiropractors I saw had the practice of his staff calling me to schedule if more than a few weeks had passed).
Flash forward several months after I started seeing Dr. Spinato: My husband, who never sees chiropractors, had a migraine headache and Dr. Spinato told me this is something he has a lot of luck curing. After being in pain for 2 days (and being nagged by me), my husband finally went to Dr. Spinato for an adjustment and within 1 hour of leaving Dr. Spinato’s office, his migraine was completely gone.
Last comment: Dr. Spinato’s staff are accommodating and friendly. They have fit me in for appointments at the last minute. They couldn’t be nicer about this. And when I’ve run late, they still take me. Wait time at his office is minimal. He doesn’t over-​schedule. He takes his time with each patient which I also like. He sees you in a room and isn’t in a hurry.
Unreservedly, five stars for Dr. Spinato and his staff.

Dr. Spinato has been a blessing in disguise. I initially went to him for a vertigo issue I had, He adjusted my C3 in my neck a few times and I felt instant relief from being dizzy. My regular Doctor wanted to prescribe me Anti-​Depressants to help «calm my brain»…No thanks! I prefer to treat the issue not cover it up.
I went to Dr. Spianto three more times and also discovered I had an hormone imbalance, which I never even thought twice about, but knew it was there and thought it was an age issue. He prescribed some natural supplements and I feel so much more energetic and focused. I really grateful to find such a knowledgeable real deal Chiropractor. Now that I am better I dont have any further appointments with Dr. Spinato but will always keep his number on speed dial for any issues.
