Testimonials

Dear Dr. Runco:

Because Southern California is a mecca for athletes, it goes without saying that ads for chiropractors and athletic injury specialists are all over the place in LA and San Diego. That makes choosing the right doctor kind of crapshoot. I’m a triathlete, and at age 41, I had the first knee injury in my life. A knee injury for the sedentary is a mentally bad thing, but a knee injury for a runner is even worse.

Getting taken out of running at this age had me extremely concerned about what that would mean when I get older. I tried a bunch of chiros, but my primary dissatisfaction was that as good as they might be at adjustments, they weren’t runners, and thus, the focus was on getting me walking again, but not necessarily competitive. Knee injuries are tough things to diagnose; I needed someone who was not only a chiro/injury specialist, but an athlete – someone who would understand the competitive drive to be out there running, swimming, biking as soon as possible.

After nine months of struggling with this injury I came across your ad in Competitor. You not only isolated & diagnosed MCL injury right away, but you emphasized using any and all techniques (chiro, acupuncture, ultrasound, EMI, and other non traditional Asian methods) to heal it, with surgery only as the absolute last resort. No athlete in his right mind wants to undergo surgery if there’ a more holistic option that works. After a mere 4 weeks of therapy, I was on the treadmill, and 2 weeks later, I was out on the blacktop again, running the bluffs in North County and happy as hell to be out there again.

I’m fired up & very happy I found you. Your staff (the Kristas –squared) was extremely courteous & knowledgeable and you are very educational about what each therapy is intended to do. I’ll be recommending any other athletes to you in a heartbeat.

Thanks very much,
Chaz Siu
