I came to Ford Chiropractic due to a herniated disc, C6/C7. I had never experienced the extraordinary amount of pain I was in when I first showed up as a wreck in need of healing. Hunter Ford and his receptionists were quick to get me in, and, fortunately for me, they accept Medicare. Always extremely professional and receptive to what I had to say, Hunter Ford was able to zero in on how to relieve all of the tension and pain I was dealing with. I strongly recommend Ford Chiropractic! Addendum: I am updating my review (above written 3 weeks ago) because my husband just went in due to a lot of shoulder pain and felt much much better after just one treatment! They got him in within 24 hours of our last-minute call for help, and my husband is going back for another appointment in 3 days. Hunter is extremely hard-working, attentive, skilled, and an all-around excellent human being. I haven't been to every chiro in town, but I'm going to say Ford Chiro is the best in town! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Doctor Ford was good enough to see me as a walk patient at their Chiropractic Center, and within 15 minutes he had relieved the neck pain I had endured for more than 2 days! That same night I was back to normal and feeling perfectly fine. I could tell from this one interaction that he really knows and understands the physiology of the human body. Beyond that, he was true to his practice and fit me into a busy schedule because in his own words "We can't turn down someone in pain". Doctor Ford is a healer in the utmost sense of the profession. His actions and values are very much aligned and this will be my go to place from now on here in Santa Barbara. I wish every sports and medical business operated like this!

First appointment with Hunter Ford. Reviewed my exercises and made adjustments to them. Very gently manipulated my neck and mid back. Showed me how to use his adapted theracane. Accepts Medicare. Did a thorough exam. Will return! Thanks Hunter!

Dr. Ford greeted me at the front door of his office and was kind from the start. I immediately felt comfortable and have only been seen by a chiropractor so I was a bit nervous. His knowledge and bed side manner put me at ease. He talked me through what he was doing, was super informative and had answers to my many questions. He also gave me a few stretches and exercises I could do to improve my symptoms. I felt the experience overall was great and I will be back again.
