Dr. Rob is so professional and kind! I have been experiencing a good deal of pain and already after two visits I feel like my old self again! Not only is he addressing the issues but educating me along the way to prevent future issues. Thank you for your care and attention!

Ive been coming to see Dr. Davison for years! The office is friendly, always clean and very welcoming. Dr. Davison listens and takes care to make sure you leave feeling better than when you walked in. Chiropractic care from Back in Action has prevented me from needing cortisone shots in my knee, helped with an old hip injury, whiplash from a car accident, and saved me from regular life or sporting injuries. I highly recommend Back in Action and Dr. Davison.

Okay, I dont think theres a way to fully express my gratitude for Dr. Davison but Ill try. I am in Berkeley for work and am leaving in a couple of days but I was having some pretty bad neck and back pain. I thought there might be something seriously wrong. I have had a bad experience with a different chiropractor in the past so I was nervous but I thought I better give it another shot. I called Dr. Davison and he made an appointment with me the same day! I requested an X-ray and he accommodated. Yall Ive had neck stiffness/pain/tightness for 6 months and have been going to PT for it for 2. Dr. Davison adjusted my neck once and made it feel so much better!! My range of motion has greatly improved. My back felt better, but I still had pain while trying to sleep so I called Dr. Davison back and hearing my distress, he again made a same day appointment with me. He adjusted my back again and I feel like a new person! I really cant believe how much better I feel after 2 adjustments. But not only that.. Dr. Davison is super kind, gentle, and respectful. He explained everything and calmed my fears.Thank you Dr. Davison, Im a believer now! You rock!! See you next month!

I have seen Dr Davidson periodically over the years and trust him without reservation. But one day was exceptional. My daughter strained her back one Sunday and couldnt walk. Her friend had to drive her home to Berkeley and she practically crawled into the house. I called Dr Davidson, thinking I would just be leaving a message that he would pick up on Monday. Minutes later he returned my call and said that he could see her .. in 2 hours ! On a Sunday he met her in his office, spent about an hour with her, and greatly, greatly improved her movement and her pain. He was our hero.

I was looking for a new chiropractor after my regular practitioner retired recently. As someone who started chiropractic care over 30 years ago, I’m so glad I made a consultation appointment. I did my research. Dr. Davison and his staff are warm, courteous, and professional. I’ve found my new chiropractic home.

Back in Action says it all. I was a patient until they helped me get back on my feet, literally. I repaid them by stopping my visits for several years until once again I needed help. Sheepishly, I called for an appointment. The friendly and courteous receptionist scheduled me for later THAT morning. I was grateful for that alone. Doc. Robert then quickly got me right again.Hes a new and better man. He helps you to understand. He does everything he can, hes Doctor Robert. John Lennon and Paul McCartney. 😎

Dr. Rob is caring and professional. He listens carefully and then addresses the specific area of concern. He gave me a detailed treatment plan, and also let me know what else I could do to improve my condition. His office staff is friendly, organized, and competent, and his office is pleasant and convenient. I have since sent family to be treated by Dr. Rob, and would highly recommend him!

Review №16

I have been receiving chiropractic treatment from Back in Action practitioners for multiple decades. At one point in my medical history back and neck doctors warned me that a pinched nerve in my neck might require surgery and prescribed pain killing medication. Instead of embarking along that course, I consulted with Dr. Davidson at Back in Action. He set up a different recovery plan, prescribing a regimen of physical therapy exercises and regular adjustments, quickly weening me off the pain killers. I thank Back in Action for providing a healthy alternative to invasive surgery. I now consider regular chiropractic adjustments along with exercise and healthy food the key components to a healthy lifestyle.The customer service at Back in Action is excellent. Appointments are easy to schedule. I receive reminder e-mails the week of my appointments. Discounted treatment packages make on-going care affordable, and the Center always acknowledges my birthday!

Dr. Davison is absolutely awesome. He has helped me and my wife with various back pain issues over the years. He listens carefully, takes good notes, and remembers what is going on for his patients. When doing adjustments, he is skilled, gentle, and efficient. Very reasonable rates and flexible with last-minute appointments. Highly recommended!

Review №19

Ive gone to chiropractors since I was in my 20s and consider it an important part of health maintenance. Mr. Davison is one of the best. I have absolute confidence when he works on my neck, and not every chiropractor is good with the neck. The office is great, convenient and the prices are very reasonable. Id recommend Back in Action to anyone considering chiropractic.

Review №20

One word GREEDY!!After a crash, I went to this place for help. I had Medpay, from my insurance. After a week I hired an attorney who advised me to have them NOT BILL the medpay, I signed a waiver with them and moved forward with treatment. Flash forward to the end. They billed my insurance to the max and beyond ruining my legal case to the point that I am walking away with nothing!All they care about is money, I felt rushed at every visit by him and it’s now clear, I was nothing but cash cow. Be warned

Ive been treated at Back in Action for a number of years. I have utilized both chiropractic as well as therapeutic massage services. The staff is competent and friendly.

I love coming here. Everything is very mellow. Dr. Rob is very gentle and careful. He isnt just trying to make a buck. He wont do anything that he thinks could be risky. They have made time to see me when Ive had a chiropractic emergency. There are good package deals. Also the therapeutic massages here are awesome! (And you can include them in your FlexPlan benefit because they billed at the chiropractic office.)

For anyone with back pain, they know dealing with it and anything else added to it can be stressful and painful. Well not if you make it to this place! Peaceful cozy clinic, with people who care about your needs and are willing to help! I would come back a million times if my pockets were deep enough!! Thank you so much back in action!

Review №24

I found Back in Action Chiropractic via the web after experiencing lower back pain for several days. I am new to Chiropractic, so I chose this office based on their reviews, which were mostly 5 star. I found the facility easy to access, with reserved parking, a huge plus, as I could barely walk at first. The office is clean, sunny, and inviting. Dr. Davison is very knowledgeable, professional and thorough and I trusted his opinion with my diagnoses and suggested care. I have had three visits, and two adjustments so far, my pain is greatly reduced, and I am confident that I will continue to heal under the care of a professional.

What worked for my sons high school friend the runner years ago is now working for me too! I never imagined how much healthier I could be in my late 60s than I was at 62. When I finally heeded my friends gentle insistence that I try Back In Action for my chronic pain issues, I got a diagnosis and appropriate therapeutic massage and chiropractic adjustment that brought not only RELIEF but also renewed health and physical ability and understanding and continues to do so years later.

Review №26

I am just starting an intensive treatment plan here so I cant share a full story about how my condition has changed completely... But I can say that Dr. Davison is awesome. He really listens to what you have to say unlike a lot of other doctors Ive seen. He comes up with a wholistic plan to help you to regain your health so you dont have to come in as often. Shows that hes honest and not trying to make you come see him all the time and pay him all your money.

Flexibility is the word that comes in mind when I think of Back In Action Chiropractic Center. As Dr. Davison offer me a treatment plan for regaining the overall movement ability and strength after my car accident on 6/4/2015. Not only the treatment itself that was very helpful but also the time schedule was very agreeable to meet my need. This really supported me on my path to recovery.

Ive been a patient here for ~15 years. Dr. Rob is a former professor of his trade and stays on the cutting edge, staying educated and bringing any new awareness immediately to his patients in newsletters I actually read. Great table side manner and friendly staff. I am still a fan after all this time (and your tops compared to several previous chiropractors!)

I receive regular chiropractor services and massage at Back in Action. I have been a client since the late 1990s and if that isnt testimony to my complete satisfaction of their services, I dont know what is. I would probably bent over looking like an old croan instead of the upright and feeling good person I. I highly recommend you give this practice a try. They are the best and nice too.

Back In Action came through when I truly needed chiropractic care, as I could barely move due to back problems. Dr. Davison has been absolutely wonderful. He genuinely cares about my recovery and after each adjustment I truly feel much better. He gave me stretches and exercises to help strengthen my back, core and neck in order to avoid pain in the future. The staff is accommodating and friendly. I highly recommend Back In Action for anyone seeking chiropractic care!

This is my first Google review, Im only writing it because they emailed me today asking for my feedback, and my experience several years ago was so bad I wanted to share it. Ive been to many chiropractors over the years, and this was one of the worse experiences I have had. They made my injured rib considerably worse than it was before and I had to go elsewhere to have it corrected.Whats more, they tried to sell me an herbal remedy for an under-active thyroid they insisted was a health issue. Id had a physical, including a full panel on my thyroid, two weeks before that said everything was fine. I would never, ever go back here, and would strongly encourage others to look very carefully before entrusting your health to this establishment.

I have been a patient of Dr. Davison for several years, and have always come out of his clinic feeling a foot taller and with the posture of a ballerina! Because I sit in front of the computer for hours, I have chronic shoulder/neck issues. Dr. Davison is my savior, and I highly recommend his skills. He is warm and personable, and always on time; and the parking situation is very easy, which is a big plus in my book.

I have been seeing Dr Davison since he took over the practice from Ethan Feldman. The transition was smooth and the care excellent. Dr. D. is personable, empathetic and professional always. He goes the extra mile to accommodate your needs and listens to help you figure out what they are. They have a six visit discount, with an seventh visit free and you also get a free adjustment for your birthday. The receptionists are also very helpful and pleasant. I have limited experience with the masseuses, but yesterday I had a massage with Julie for lower back pain. It was a great massage and today I really feel much better. Make an appointment. You will be happy you did.

Ive been going to Dr. Bob at BIACC for years for treatment of back pain/spasms that crop up several times a year, and hes never failed to provide relief. Im sure if I went in regularly for adjustments i would have fewer episodes (or none;-) of what is sometimes debilitating pain, but thats just me. Maybe youre smarter than I am.The office staff at Back In Action is as good as the doctor and I also get a free adjustment every year as a birthday gift!You wont regret letting them help you.

I have been going to Back in Action for many years, initially to help me with a life-long problem, and now to help me stay in tune.

Review №60

Im a distance runner and I have had to basically quit running due to a chronic hip problem Ive had for almost seven years. Ive seen numerous physical therapists, chiropractors, and orthopedists for the problem- none was able to give me lasting relief, and they all recommended that I stop running. I often had trouble sleeping and walking because of the pain.Ive been seeing Dr. Davison for a few months (about 12 sessions), and I am now training for a half marathon PAIN FREE.The doctor has NEVER told me to cut down on running, the exercises I need to do outside of appoints are minimal, and I have received two free sessions- one for my birthday and one after a flare-up.Appointments are easy to make, quick, and the receptionist is very helpful.I am so happy and grateful- worth every penny. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Review №67

Been going to this office since early 80s – when Doctor Ethan Feldman was there. Pleased to report that Dr. Feldman sold his practice to Dr Davison, someone with the same philosophy, approach to health & intuitive magic touch. I go once a month for a tuneup adjustment & massage, and walk out of there 2” taller, straighter and feeling overall refreshed & uplifted; and that is saying a lot for a 70-year-old with neckbone spurs & degenerative lumbar discs in addition to a fairly recent massive stroke, hip and knee replacements and broken ankles. Give your mind & body an enormous gift by calling for an appointment!
