Report
Shout out to Dr. ALINA MOSER, D.C., L.AC.- Dr. Moser is the best chiropractor I've ever been to and comes with the bonus of practicing acupuncture, as well. I have never walked away from a chiropractic appt feeling so good. She spends time, listens, and treats intuitively using hands and touch. If you can't handle the common twist and crack services anymore, she is the one to come to. Pacific Naturopathic staff is friendly and efficient. I highly recommend this business.

I am a newer patient there and so far I am blown away by the level of care. My initial appointment was so thorough and detailed. I have never experienced that with any doctor. Dr Thorne sent me home with extensive instruction. After leaving it was the first time in my lifetime I have hope for my health. Their staff is amazing, communicative and kind. I am so thankful to be in their care.

Report
I wish I could give more than 5 stars. My husband got so sick he could not work. He had bad anxiety, cloudy head, weight loss, and many other symptoms to the point that he could not function. Two different doctors (and lots of tests and money later) and they could not figure out what was wrong with him. They suggested it was depression / mental illness and that he see a psychiatrist.
Dr. Thoring figured out what was wrong after one visit and some blood tests. My husband has Lyme and a parasite in his blood cells. The treatment we have received there is exceptional and the staff are all very kind
