Inquire Within Integrated Body Therapeutics

My friend brought me here upon moving back to Santa Cruz. Wares is great, chiropractor/​ear wicking all amazing. My back has ongoing issues and he helped a lot!

This review is for Warren and Tangela: both very skilled healers! (In Santa Cruz, a city so full of loving, conscious healers.)
I first found Inquire Within because I heard about the massage practice of a woman named Tangela. She had some cool Eastern training and a discount so I wanted to try her out. At that time she gave massages at Inquire Within, though I’m not sure where she works or lives now. She is incredibly talented and deep with her work. I’ve had many massages from many people and am a Massage Practitioner myself so I recognize quality when I feel it. One of the best massages I’ve ever gotten definitely. Recommended! There was so much flow and love pouring through her she literally ended it with a little kiss on my forehead! She makes aromatherapy products too.
As for Warren Angelo, lucky for me, he was my chiropractor regularly for a long time back when I lived in Santa Cruz! (I think it was about every few weeks for maybe 6 – 12 months?) It was my first experience with a chiropractor.
I was so scared about the concept of some person cracking my neck into place. I thought it would hurt and terrify me. But when I got my massage from Tangela, I met Warren. He was so friendly and disarming and I think offered a free intro — so thus began our ongoing relationship of receiving frequent chiropractic sessions from him in exchange for me giving him professional Swedish massages. I really enjoyed our exchanges!
As a Massage Practitioner, it was important for me to experience a chiropractor so I see how well it goes along with massage and how it goes into territory massage can’t. Plus Warren’s style includes a bit of massage. It was a gentle experience which never hurt me. In fact it brought me so much relief. My mood felt noticeably brighter after just brief sessions with Warren — on his table and also with a special vibrating sorta table he has that’d loosen me up before the adjustments.
My nervous system was quite off in ways I didn’t even realize before I met Warren. He explained that and felt intuitive and talented to me. Once I took a really intense breathing weekend intensive (Art of Living) which left my ribs really sore and me feeling a bit overloaded and weak. I went to Warren in that state and explained the intensive and he found areas of my spine which were off in a way that full breaths weren’t possible hence those breathing exercises being such a strain for my specific body. He adjusted me and I felt so normalized.
His adjustments helped me feel really realligned and comfy and stabilized other times too, like after a lot of detoxing and releasing at a Harbin Hot Springs trip complete with many hours of soaking in purifying hot and cold water. And throughout me starting off my massage career.
Basically it was through Warren I found what a wonderful component excellent chiropractor sessions can be to someone with a lifestyle full of healing yet intense/​physical/​emotional experiences and some significant past traumas. Other than the adjustments, the charmingly casual, friendly feel to the office and Warren’s personality, his willingness to listen, and insights he speaks add to the overall healing quality of his practice.
I’ve recommended Warren to many people. One of my massage clients was very unalligned and hurting from a bad accident. I felt limited in how much Swedish massage could help him. I sent him to Warren. He loved it and became a regular client of Warren’s. Awesome :)
I strongly recommend Warren and Tangela!

Every time I go see Warren I leave walking straighter. He has become an integral part of my healing process. He was able to adjust my neck when other chiropractors couldn’t (I had a lot of neck pain before visiting Warren). Plus he is incredibly supportive and genuinely interested in the mental, physical, and spiritual well-​being of all his clients. Rhiannon, his assistant, is a great addition to his office. She is very professional, kind, and caring, like Warren! They are very flexible also with their scheduling and the prices are reasonable. I don’t know where I would be without Inquire Within! I recommend Warren to all my friends, and am so grateful such an amazing healer is accessible to me!

Warren Angelo is a stellar healer. As a chiropractor he’s «kept me in line» for the past year and a half and my back has never felt better.
His ear candling also restored my hearing after my ears had become so obstructed with wax buildup that a conversation on a busy street was impossible. One session with him and I was suddenly unable to bear the ear-​splitting volume of my cell phone ring tone… whereas before the session I could barely hear it at the same level.
