Thanks for Helping During My Pregnancy

by carla1235

I met with Dr. Gloin when I was 4 months pregnant and in severe need of his help. It was a great referral from my friend. He helped resolve the mid and low back pain I was having as a result of my body changing so quickly with pregnancy. His adjustments releived the pain, improved my flexibility and fixed the nagging tension I was feeling. I was originally scared of chiropractic, but Dr. Gloin was very gentle with me and put me at ease. I attribute the pilates classes to my quick and successul birth as the muscles in my core helped support my back. I love the instructors at Live Well as they keep the classes challenging and fun! Thank you also for helping me get my pregnancy body back to looking great!

• Pros: Very caring, clean and ontime
• Cons: None

LOVE ME SOME LIVE WELL CHIROPRACTIC

by Weho90069

I only have great things to say about the staff and services provided by Live Well Chiropractic. When you first enter the building you are greeted by one of their amazing, sweet and professional receptionists. They have 2 chiropractors, both with their own style of treatment - I have been to both and I feel like a new person afterwards. They both take extra time with you to find the best treatment that works for you - my back has never been better. If you like pilates, they have a variety of classes- beginners to hard core boot camp, the instructors are great and they really work you out while maintaining alignment. Within 6-8 weeks of pilates you will see a major change in your body, physique as well as posture. They have the best massage therapists in town, each have their own style. I recommend to test drive them all.

A major big plus is that the Doctors do sometime stay till 7pm to take care of those who can not leave their job during the day. They also have Saturday hours. They work with many insurance companies, and if you don’t have insurance, I feel their prices are pretty reasonable for Los Angeles.

I highly recommend Live Well Chiropractic!

• Pros: Great Chiropractic Care, Pilates Classes and Massages

Just in time for a long weekend

by standy

I was about to go away for President's Day weekend and my neck locked up on me. Afraid to travel I found Dr. Gloin on google. He saw me the same day and treated me with care and compassion. I felt about 75% better after my first treatment. He had me do specific stretches until I returned and gave me some anti-inflammatory cream. I saw him for a follow-up and then began pilates with Jedda. I love the whole mix of what they offer (chiropractic, pilates and massage). Very clean, modern and they accept insurance! The staff is friendly and efficient with insurance and appointments. I will continue to use them to keep my body running smoothly.

• Pros: Efficient, knowledgeable and affordable
• Cons: none

AWESOME doctors, pilates and massage and Great Atmosphere

by imperial5

There are so many wonderful and fabulous things about this place that i hardly know where to begin!!

This facility offers chiropractic care, pilates classes and massage therapy - it is definitely the best that i have experienced (on all accounts). I love that it incorporates all facets of healthy wellness living under one roof. I have been in so many severe car accidents that i can safely say i have run the gamut of places all over los angeles and Live Well is exactly what its name professes. Both Dr. Matt Gloin and Dr. Stephen Gavin are AMAZING. They are gentle yet effective, strong but no overwhelming, and take the time to get to know each patient individually. They go above and beyond on all accounts and work with you to develop an individual and unique program that targets your specific needs. The even take insurance - unheard of in todays market. In addition, all masseuses and pilates instructors are fantastic and have devout followings. Dr. Gavin even teaches Pilates classes on Tuesday and Thursday evenings! If you are interested in meditation, there is a FREE meditation class every Wednesday night @ 8. I guarantee you will not be disappointed if you find yourself at this mecca of health and healing.

• Pros: Convenient Parking - Massages- Pilates - Fantastic Chiropractic treatment!!!!!!
• Cons: Nothing that i can think of .... it's all wonderful

I am amazed!!

by acpi2004

I am amazed at how quickly Dr. Gloin was able to help me with my fibromyalgia. I went to three other doctors and my pain was unchanged. Dr. Gloin was friendly and went above and beyond to explain my problem and gave me several options for care. I am thankful that I can use my insurance to cover most of the cost . Plus, I now do pilates classes in the beautiful pilates studio and this is very helpful in keeping my problem under control. Thank you Dr. Gloin and all the Live Well Staff!!!

• Pros: Easy parking and scheduling

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!!!

by feedfad1

Dr. Gavin and Dr. Gloin are both master healers. They listen and adjust based on your preferences, not on what might make their wallets fat. They actually want you to feel better! In addition, the atmosphere they've created at Live Well is hip, casual and welcoming. Gorgeous, actually. The staff is amazing. Yvonne and Valencia call to remind you of every appointment and know your name when you arrive. I take pilates there three to four times per week with 3 different instructors. They are all amazing. Each one has their own emphisis which has really helped my body firm up. I can't stop touching myself! They offer massage, too, which I have also been extremely impressed by. What I especially like about this place is the friendly clientelle. I've actually made friends here. The classes (up to 5 people on reformers) are small enough to growl together, laugh beyond the grunt, and encourage each other along the way. Live Well is all in the name.

• Pros: care, atmosphere, clientelle
• Cons: none

Great doctor and facility

by jffcloud

Dr. Gloin was such a breath of fresh air. On my first visit Dr. Gloin examined me thoroughly and asked lots of pertinent questions, he gave me a diagnosis and then talked with me about different options for care. Because of his caring and knowledgeable approach I decided to try chiropractic for my first time. I came to his office with chronic neck and upper back pain. I was nervous about an adjustment, but he provided me with a few options. On my first visit he did a low force technique that was painless and seemed fine (I did not have to hear the "pop" sound I was apprehensive about). By the end of my first week of treatment I was about 50% improved and I let him do a traditional chiropractic adjustment. I am now an old pro after 4 sessions and feel completely comfortable with his care. Dr. Gloin made me feel important in his busy day and was very up front with cost and the amount of time it would take to resolve my problem. I now send all my friends to him and highly recommend his office also for the pilates classes and massage offered.

• Pros: Clean, fast, convenient

Miracle Worker!

by missysgoldie

I injured my back to the point of not being able to move for weeks and I found Dr. Gloin through my insurance carrier. His compassion coupled with his indepth knowledge had me on the road to recovery in half the time I expected! Now I am a regular at Pilates and frequently get massages at LiveWell too. The best part is, is my insurance covers it!!!! If you want to get better... this is the place to go.
