Ideal Body Chiropractic

After extensive research and seeing roughly 10+ doctors, I finally had the luxury of finding Dr. Simon Kuang online. I scheduled an appointment online and within the next business day he called me for the free 15 minute phone call consultation about my problems. He was very thorough and seemed to care about his patients even before I have actually met him.
When I first walked into his facility I knew I was going to get great treatment. He runs his own operation without any assistants and has various tools and techniques to help resolve any problems you might have. Ive been having lower hip issues due to some scar tissue in muscles which have been present for over a year now. Ive had intermittent relief from other places but after a couple treatments with Dr. Kuang, I am now beginning to run and lift again with minimal to no discomfort. Very helpful doctor who I will continue to see until my problem has been completely resolved. I would recommend him over any other ART professional out there as he is not only compassionate about his patients, he takes large efforts to get all of them back in healthy, optimal conditions.

Look no where else!!! Dr. Simon is THE healer! I’ve had problems with my knee for 5+ years prior to seeing Dr. Simon and met with so many chiropractors who weren’t able to help me with long term maintenance or pain relief. My workout sessions after the first visit here were painless! The improvement with my knee is really encouraging me to stay active! Dr. Simon not only spends time with pain relief but also with teaching me exercises to prevent future problems. I really appreciate this aspect of my visits.
He’s really in this business to improve the quality of his clients’ health and livelihood. Highly highly recommend him!

I used to be a baseball catcher and have had a nagging issue in my hip for over 25 years – If I stood for a while my right leg would start to fall asleep. Quite annoying.
Dr. Simon showed me the muscles that were likely to blame on his computer screen. Then explained what he was going to do. I really just wanted to find a remedy for this issue that was non-​surgical.
First Dr. Simon identified the area and started working his magic both on the table and then again on the ground. He explained what he was doing. It hurt REALLY good and I could tell something had changed.
After the treatment he showed me exercises I can do on my own and they have continued to keep this ancient injury at bay. I can now stand and walk around without worrying that my leg might fall asleep!
Thank you Dr. Simon!!!

Dr. Simon Magic Hands, as I like to call him, is a masterful magician of muscular manipulation. My hands and forearms are a hot mess from all my years as a massage therapist and me neglecting the needs of my body. Now I’m a nail tech and my massaging is localized to just my hands and forearms which are inflamed and burn, with what I am sure are the fires of hell. I Unilocaled «active release therapy» cuz I believe it’s the best therapy to relieve fatigued muscles and Ideal Body popped up. After just talking to him on the phone I knew he was my chiropractic spirit animal. He is gentleman and a scholar, literally, very charismatic, professional and knowledgeable. First he sat down and talked with me to see what I felt was wrong and what I wanted to achieve as far as goals for my healing. Next he tested my range and strength to evaluate what needed to be done. Then proceeded with the active release treatment. He even sent me home with tips and tricks to help me between sessions. For my first chiropractic experience I am happier than a camel on Wednesday. Thank you Dr. Simon!

I consider myself an athletic person. I’ve been dancing since I was two years old, received my Bachelors in Dance, and have been training in Olympic Weightlifting for the last two years. My performance and my body are very important to me and I’ve found chiropractic to be the best method of taking care of myself.
The fact that Dr. Kuang is an athlete appealed to me when choosing to see him for chiropractic treatment. He is an athlete and understands how important performance and everyday training is. Not only is Dr. Kuang knowledgable but he is gracious, kind, and thoughtful. He is a doctor I trust and he maintains his professionalism while still showing me he cares about me getting better. His prices are competitive without being too high and his office is fun and active. Dr. Kuang’s office is an environment that promotes healing and function!
From my many experiences with medical doctors and chiropractors, I can honestly say that Dr. Kuang is the best out there. He promotes health and improvement and really cares about all of his patients. I would recommend any of my family and friends to see him.
Thanks, Dr. Kuang! Kilo the dog is the cutest thing ever btw!

I’m being treated by Dr Kuang for my persistent back/​hip pain. My pain started 2 years ago after being injured in a 3 car collision but I believe I was on the tip of the iceberg from continuous years of sitting during my studies and now at work. I’ve been educating myself on muscle movement and trigger point therapy but I sought out Dr Kuang for A.R.T. treatments in areas I could not release myself.
During the first appointment Dr Kuang completed a thorough interview of my areas of pain and then proceeded to evaluate my movements and posture. He also made sure to rule out nerve pain issues. I have received A.R.T. treatments before so I knew what to expect and was happy to feel improvements after the first day. Whats great about Dr Kuang is that he educates you on what you can do to prevent or lower your chances of being re-​injured. I believe that will be my saving grace. As he identifies what movements/​postures in my life that may be aggravating the issue and I report back to him whats helped/​not we can work together to finally be free of pain.
Its rare to find a practitioner so enthusiastic about seeing his patients improve. The added bonus is that he doesn’t overbook his patients so you don’t feel rushed through the appointment. He is attentive through the whole session :)

Dr. Kuang is the man. Knowledgeable, professional, friendly, etc. And his office is beautiful.
I’m a crossfit athlete and I’ve had ongoing lower back pain lasting a few years. Within ten minutes of being in Dr. Kuang’s office and showing him some of my weightlifting form, he identified a huge problem and the largest source of my chronic back pain.
Three treatments later and with ongoing attention to proper body mechanics, I’m as good as healed. Can’t say enough good about this place. Go here.

I was seeking some alternative help with my shoulder. Originally I was told I had shoulder tendinitis, but it’s been 3 months and still unable to sleep. I decided to look for a chiropractor on Unilocal,after reading reviews on several, what caught my attention with this guy was his methods his patients were describing were not what you hear from traditional chiropractors. After seeing him for about an hour, he was able to pin point exactly what was going on with my shoulders and was able to provide some relief. So far, I’m very happy with first visit. Plus, the doc has a great personality. Definitely recommending him!

I have been seeing Dr. Simon (aka «the magician») for a few months now. The first few visits were more frequent to address my shoulder pain caused by impingement. It was a mess! I had been seeing another chiropractor but not feeling much relief. Dr. Simon helped identify the issues, helped relieve the pain, explained what was causing it, and we started working on my posture, and strengthening the surrounding muscles that were not doing their job to hold my shoulder in place. Not a quick fix but a long-​term solution. Now I am on a maintenance plan to see him every 5 – 6 weeks and address any other issues. As a masters CrossFit/​weightlifting athlete I feel it is important to take care of the body you have and Dr. Simon has been an integral part of that.
What I love about his approach is how much I have learned about my shoulder, what triggers the pain and how to address it myself. I often hear him say that his goal is to not see his patients every week. He clearly strives to give his patients the tools to help themselves and is always available for questions and help when you need it.
Thanks Dr. Simon!

Dr. Kuang is excellent. I had been going to a different Chiropractor for about a year before I decided to make the switch and I am so thankful that I did! His treatment has done more for me in two weeks than my previous Chiropractor did in months. I have had lower back pain for the past 3 years due to an injury I sustained during a workout and so far nothing has helped me.
After one session at Ideal Body I felt an instant difference! I am so excited about the way I feel and finally realizing that I don’t have to live with chronic back pain. He shows you how your everyday movements can change slightly to greatly improve the health of your back and reduce pain. So glad I found him!

Long overdue review. Dr Kuang has been working on me for about a month now. First we focused on the acute tightness/​numbness in my forearms and fingers from working on the computer all day long. I currently train in powerlifting and transitioning back into weightlifting. After bench/​deadlift training sessions the numbness was always worse. Cleans were unstable and suffering because of the tightness too. I was waking up in the middle of the night with numb fingers/​hands starting in May of this year. After seeing Dr Kuang, I finally started sleeping through the night after only one treatment session.
During the next couple sessions we were able to move onto other problem areas like my neck/​shoulders and hips/​feet. I’ve become stronger, lifts have improved and have been sleeping like a baby!
Being an athlete/​Coach himself, Dr Kuang completely understands how to treat the underlying issues to help improve our movements in and out of the gym.
THANK YOU Dr Kuang!!!

My experience with Dr. Kuang was great. He spent the time to learn my work habits and identified the issues that were causing my chronic pain. He taught me different ways to work so I can continue without pain. I really appreciate that he also explains what he is doing and how his techniques are counteracting the spine and joint issues I had.
For months I would wake up many times throughout the night due to pain in my neck and shoulders, thanks to Dr. Kuang, I sleep through the night now. I highly recommend Dr. Kuang and Ideal Body Chiropractic.

I just saw Dr. Kuang again this past Monday. He has helped me previously with overall spine health wellness. But this time I needed relief from a specific incident: I developed severe lower back pain after a long cross country driving trip. As usual, Dr. Kuang provided immediate relief but also continued to work on me until all other tightness and discomfort was alleviated.
Dr. Kuang’s care remains top-​notch.

Dr. Kuang is warm, caring, organized and modern. Huge bonus for me: his gorgeous chocolate lab Kilo, who could easily become a therapy dog! I’ve gotten the ART (Active Release Technique) for both visits & I feel rejuvenated, with loose muscles that feel the way they’re supposed to, when I leave (and, by the way, I don’t want to leave his work space because it’s so chic and zen). Awesome business, Dr.

First off this is long overdue.
I first came to see Dr Kuang about 2 months ago. I had been meaning to go get an adjustment for quite some time but I am very picky with my chiro because I hate it when they just do an adjustment charge you $ 50 then turn you out so they can bring in their next patient. This isn’t what happens at Ideal Body. He is not just interested in a temporary adjustment but actually wants to give you permanent results.
First I was attracted to the fact that Dr Kuang was previously and athlete so he would understand my injuries and lifestyle and help me get back into what I enjoy. Second thing that brought me in was his prompt response when I called him. I left a message and right away I got a call back and he was personable and honest. Not trying to sell me a service, he listened to what I had wrong, had a few suggestions and asked me to come
In if I felt he was a good fit so I did.
Upon my first visit he actually sat down and first off got to know me a bit like an actual person not just another number. Next he listened to my issues and waited until I was finished with everything (I had a lot of problems) and then began making suggestions on what he could do to help fix it.
He took a look at my back which was my first problem and honestly I think that just needed some stretching and adjustment. Since the first visit I haven’t had any issues as long as I follow the stretches he gave me and get some adjustments once a month or so.
The knees were the real issue. He took the time to look at each knee, see how my patella was soooo unaligned and explained my issue and was very descriptive. He told me why it is the way it is, why it hurts, and how we can go about making the problem better. I greatly appreciated this as I like to break things down and understand why things happen the way they do so it made so much sense to me. And science is science so not much arguing with him lol.
Again he did some work on my knee, massaged the scar tissue, gave me some foundation stretches and exercises to start re-​aligning. As of today it had been about two months and I can see the improvement. I don’t have as much pain as before, I can hike and swim further without pain and the biggest difference are my lunges. I could only perform about 5 lunges before I would have immense pain. Now I can do two full sets without pain and I can do them right! I now naturally have better alignment when I walk and workout.
Overall I don’t think I could have been in better hands going anywhere else. He is always in a great mood even art thou end of a long day of patients I don’t feel like he is trying to kick me out. He is always willing to listen to anything else going on with me and just shoot the Sh*t for a while too. Even his mascot Kilo (please correct me if I’m wrong) is happy to see me when I come in. Happiest and well behaved dog you see.
I def recommend going to Dr Kuang to at least experience the first consultation, it literally can change your outlook on recovery not just temporary adjustment.
Thanks Doc!

Amazing! Just on the first visit my back was feeling so much better. I was able to sleep with out waking up in pain. Dr. Simon truly cares about his patients and you can tell.

I highly recommend Dr. Simon Kuang.
I am an active crossfitter, and I had left shoulder, lat, and related area issue solid for the past four months (tightness, pain and limited range of motion). In one visit, using a combination of Chiropractic Adjustments and Active Release Therapy, he was able to completely stop the pain and reduce the tightness and limitation on range of motion. The day immediately following the visit, I was able to perform all of the movements that I had been avoiding for the past few months because of the issue.
But what sets Dr. Simon apart, is that he diligently diagnoses the cause of the problem and explains exactly what is causing the problem and why he is performing the specific treatments. Then, he provides you with a game plan for avoiding the problem in the future; for me it was using certain banded stretching and myofascial release techniques.
I will go back to Dr. Simon anytime I have an issue, and recommend him to everyone.
I wanted to add to the Review, within a couple weeks after just two sessions with Dr. Simon, I hit a Hang Snatch PR, an Overhead Squat PR, and a Deadlift PR.

Dr. Simon was referred to me by my weightlifting coach and a few of my other teammates were already his patients. The key things that I liked right away was he spent the time explaining, showing, educating me on how and why I had injured myself and was in pain as well as what to do going forward to prevent reoccurrence. The office is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing, not sterile or cheap. And you can’t beat being welcomed by his pup, Kilo, and being kid friendly that when I had to bring my daughter along it was no big deal. Best of all, he understands from a fitness and athlete point of view, not only did he help me get back to training with his treatments but also helped me and my coach formulate alternative workouts during recovery so I didn’t fall behind!

Dr. Kuang is a difficult to find combination of medical practitioner and athlete. He not only understands the theory behind human movement issues, but also the practice component of human movement. If being able to move your body freely is important to you, Dr. Kuang is without a doubt the person you want by your side.
I came in with a hip flexor issue that had been bothering me for months, to the point I stopped squatting altogether. Within a few seconds of watching me squat he was able to determine the cause of my problem. He definitely has trained eye.
From there, he not only helped relieve the nagging pain with some active release techniques, but also prescribed exercises to increase my hip’s range of motion. On top of that, he gave me some practical cues to improve my squat form. And it’s awesome that he has all of the equipment right in his office on which to practice the movements.
I can’t thank Dr. Kuang enough for his help and expertise. He is passionate about his craft, and it shows. And it doesn’t hurt that his office is seriously one of the nicest I’ve ever been in. There is just a great vibe to his practice along with great results. Recommended without a doubt.

I found this place on Unilocal,and in all honesty I was looking for a more modern day chiropractor, someone with a modern day technique. Fortunately I found Simon’s establishment and was able to move away from the traditional old school chiropractors that are more commonly found. It’s not to say their techniques don’t work but Simon offered sound advice and tips on how I can improve my back problems, taught me exercises that I can implement in my day to day routines. Simon is definitely someone this younger generation can appreciate and understand and would recommend anyone seeking physical treatment or advice. Highly recommended!
