Description

Specialties

The Joint… the chiropractic place specializes in quality chiropractic care, convenience and affordability. The Joint does straight, full-​spine manual adjustments.

History

Established in 1999.

The Joint is a rapidly growing franchise whose story first began in 1999. Back then The Joint set out to promote and deliver the health benefits of routine chiropractic care because at the time, a rapidly changing chiropractic industry left providers searching for an alternate means to meeting the needs of patients in an otherwise conventional healthcare structure. On a mission to meet the needs of both patient and chiropractor, The Joint set out to transform the traditional and often misunderstood practice of chiropractic care into a strong, simple and valuable business.

Dr. Marshall’s passion is helping others achieve their health goals by maximizing the connection between the brain and body through a well-​adjusted spine.

I was skeptical about chiropractic care, I went yesterday for the first time. I have horrible siatica pain. I love to work out, and walk and do yoga, nothing was helping. Yesterday was my first alignment adjustment. I woke up today without any pain. This is not a joke or a scam. Go run don’t wait. I am getting on the plan and going back. Very nice caring clean place.

Came in here to see Dr. Ferrell the other day. I’ve had chiropractic care for years and I have a good idea of what my problem areas are. Its nice to see a place that’s quick and fast to your needs and gets you in and out in a jiffy! I didn’t have to wait around for a x-​ray or an in-​depth hour long consultation. Dr. Ferrell was quick to the point and got all my problematic areas quickly and efficiently.
Note: I recommend to get x-​rays first if it is your first ever experience with a chiropractor. That way, they REALLY know what’s going on with your body instead of just taking the doc’s word for it. I’ve been to a couple of other chiropractor’s before that said different things about my condition that made me question about their practice. But Dr. Ferrell was on point with this assessment and that’s one of the main reasons I got my adjustments with him. Plus, it’s super affordable ($ 29 for first time assessment and adjustment and $ 69 for 4 times a month. Compared to the $ 100 visits I’m used to paying.)

I go just about every week to get a much needed adjustment. It’s amazing what routine maintenance on your back can do to make you feel better during the week. Friendly staff are always quick to serve and answer any questions I have. I also love being able to walk in without an appointment and get seen shortly after getting there. I highly recommended this place!

Lots to like about this place — no need to make appointments; no need to deal with bothersome insurance; reasonably priced, nice location in the center of Mira Mesa, clean, and open late. Only issue I had when I went was that there was a rather long wait, but there were plenty of comfortable chairs for me to wait in. I filled out a bunch of forms in the beginning, but the data is shared across the Joint franchise so no matter where you go, they’ll be able to know exactly where you were adjusted last time.
The adjustment is excellent; I felt like a million bucks leaving here after the adjustment. The chiropractor was great with the small talk and making me feel comfortable. The chair (?) was clean and comfortable and he adjusted my back, which has been needing and adjustment for a loooong time. He did quickly, efficiently, and made sure that I was comfortable the entire time. Can’t ask for me.
TL;DR Excellent adjuster.

Be very careful when going to this place. I have gone to chiropractic all my life. This place, it’s as if they have no formal training in chiropractic. They have degrees posted on the wall for sure but…
Every adjustment I received made me feel worse. I thought it was because of the short female African-​American «doctor» that gave me treatment. She is very short and cannot properly do the adjustment but will blame it on you for not lying still when that is not true. She likes to blame the table as well which makes no sense.
If they changed doctors then maybe give it a try, if not stay away.
BTW, look at the reviews where people have zero friends or very little friend and/​or reviews, most likely they are fake. A tale-​tell sign.

Came here today right at opening. Dr. Corey fixed me up in less than 20 min. He was very pleasant and I didn’t feel rushed at all. He listened and gave great advice for stretching. Front desk girl was ok. She had a friend eating noodle soup at the counter where I was checking in. So not professional. It would’ve been a 5 if she was better at service.

Couldn’t be happier. Don’t get me wrong the adjustments are QUICK but everything that needs to get done gets done. The girl who’s always at the front couldn’t be nicer (Danika I think.)and I always feel better when I leave. I’ve been getting chiropractic adjustments since elementary school and would happily recommend The joint to anyone. I prefer to see Dr. Corey.

My first visit to a different location was good. Here, the front desk girl and chiropractor both had attitude and seemed annoyed when I didn’t want to buy a membership. Living so close, I’ve been in pain and tried to go back but they were closed during business hours with no sign to explain why.

I woke up in severe pain today and, unluckily for me, it’s Christmas Eve. I was so excited to find that this place was actually open. I called to see if I needed an appointment, which I was told I didn’t. Then when I arrived (well before closing time, I might add) they turned me away because I was a new patient. But, they did invite me to come back in on Monday – you know, after suffering for four days. I’ve never been so mad – I literally cried the entire drive home (mostly from anger, but also because my neck still hurts). The only plus, I guess, is that in the time I would have been getting an adjustment, I had time to write this review. So, thanks for that, The Joint Mira Mesa. And, no, I won’t be going in on Monday. What a waste of my time…

Like other Joint franchises, this branch upholds the high standards of cleanliness, great service, and minimal waiting. I have been a patient of Dr. Farrell and I am pleased with the results of consistent adjustments. Dr. Farrell has many years of experience.
If you have chronic neck or back pain, I would try them out for a few sessions and be consistent to see results!

The service at this place is great. I always see Dr. David Marshall, and he is really friendly and walks you through each adjustment. I’ve never had to wait more than a couple minutes to be seen, and their pricing can’t be beat.
However, minus one star for the weird hours. I’ve been by twice now and the office is closed for no reason in the middle of the day. Now, looking on their website, I see that the receptionist must take a 30-​minute lunch break between 2 – 2:30.
HUH?! This is the most inconvenient thing to do when your business operates in the middle of a crowded, corporate-​laden area where workers are trying to get adjusted quickly on their breaks.
The other day, I was also stuck in traffic on Mira Mesa Blvd. (just down the street) at 6:45pm and called to see if they’d stay open for me. The receptionist told me the doctor had already left for the day!
If your hours are 10am-​7pm, you need to actually be open from 10am-​7pm!

I don’t easily give anything a perfect rating but this place deserves it. I go here once a week and it’s in and out in 10 minutes or less. It’s cheap, quick, and gets the job done. My back feels much better for days after going. The staff is friendly and good at what they do.

I have seen Dr. Marshall for over 6 months now. He is gentle, professional and excellent at adjustments. I have received chiropractic care since I was 12. They got rid of the former admin who was awful, I almost stopped coming because of her but then they changed the front desk. The new person is polite and welcoming. Again I highly recommend Dr. Marshall especially if you are timid. Thank you for your excellent care!

I’ve been coming here for a while now and have formed a pretty solid opinion about it. I like it here, a lot.
The receptionist is always friendly and helpful when need be, and the place is clean and quiet, (you could here music from next door from time to time, rarely). Dr. Marshall is great, def knows his stuff when it comes to your body. He is pleasant to talk to and has a simple adjustment routine, so it’s predictable and easy. I always walk away feeling so much better than before!
Easy, quick, and effective routine going here. I would recommend everyone try it out, I’m sure you’ll love it.

I felt like there was nothing special about this place and it seemed pretty impersonal. I had expressed how I had pain in multiple areas of my body, and the doctor just cracked my back a couple times and said I was done. I was disappointed it wasn’t very thorough.

The Joint is my go to Chiropractic Chain.
The staff is very friendly and it is always clean. They make it feel very home-​like and welcoming.
It is conveniently located in the shopping center by Target.
They offer great services at a low price, it is fantastic.
If you need your back cracked, come here.

I hurt my back and it wasn’t getting better. A massage therapist recommended the Joint. Great recommendation! I walked in and was seen within 5 minutes of completing my initial paperwork. Dr. Marshall was professional and to the point. The front desk was great and she provided me all my options. For me this place is close to work. I have been two times and each time good service at a very reasonable price. I paid $ 19 first time and $ 29 the second time. I am considering the monthly package. If you want good service, and they value your time.
I highly recommend The Joint –Mira Mesa.

Used the 19.99 first time offer a month ago and walked out with purchasing one of their monthly plans of $ 49 a month with 6mos commitment. Front desk was very helpful and friendly. She’s there every time I go in for an adjustment and knows patients’ names without looking. Great customer service. Their chairs are very comfortable and they have complimentary water in the front and this site does have a bathroom.
Dr. Marshall is friendly too and knows his stuff! My adjustments (back, neck, wrist, and ankles) did not hurt at all. Each time I visit Dr. Marshall, I walk out with no more back pain and no stiffness/​numb on my neck. Always gets a crack each time!
I know they have 2 Dr.‘s. so I wanted to see if my adjustments would differ from the other Dr.
I prefer Dr. Marshall over the other one… oh gheez, I don’t even know his name. He never really introduced himself. But with this doctor, ugh, I can’t explain it. but Dr. Marshall just does a much better job.
Dr. Marshall is there Tues-​Sat!

This was truly a great experience for me. I suffer from lower back pain and hesitate about going to the doctor because I know they will just want to put me on meds. Walking into the place was a bit scary because I had never gotten adjusted before, but the lady ant the front desk made my experience a lot better. Karina explained to me the process and offered me some hot tea. She really made my concerns go away and I felt a lot more comfortable after she explained everything to me and I watched a video. Besides my amazing adjustment, Karina was very helpful in helping me get a plan that worked for me and at my budget. Overall very pleased with my experience and I would recommend this to anyone. The Mira Mesa location is far from me, but I rather drive the extra mile to get better customer service from the front desk, and a better doctor.

They are the best!!! I suffer from migraines, and a minute after my adjustment my migraine is gone!!! Also I haven’t been sleeping well due to lower back pain, last night I had the best sleep I have had in months! I did not wake up once!
Thanks again!

Love it. You’re in and out with in minutes! For the price of one adjustment elsewhere you get for a month here! Not too long ago I had a chiropractor try to enroll me in their plan of $ 350 a month for unlimited adjustments! I get better treatment and faster service at the joint of only $ 49 a month ! If you’re in pain this is the place to go!

Dr. Marshall is one of the best Chiropractors I have ever visited. I really like The Joint’s business model, and appreciate that they’re open on weekends, which is when I usually do the most damage to myself. 5 Minutes in and out, no wasted time with unnecessary treatments. Love it.

When I came here (as a walk in!!), I was in bad shape but Dr. Marshall tweaked it out great. He is very informative on how your body got like how it is, how to fix it, and tells you what preventive stretches can be done. The price for a first time visit is $ 19 and regular is $ 29. Either price is phenomenal since other practices are at least $ 55 – 70.
The practice interior is very mellow and neat. Front desk experience was normal to me on how a receptionist should be, she knew all the info to give and advertise.

Price-​wise for a chiropractor, you can’t really beat The Joint however in terms of personal care and the doctors getting to know all your aches and pains, I don’t really get that sense here.
Each adjustment takes about 10 minutes and the doctor really goes off of what you tell them are your problematic areas. I’ve been to other chiropractors where they either do an electric (IR) scan of your body to tell where the tense spots are or a physical scan using their fingertips to locate where the spine is out of place or the knots in your muscles. That is partly the reason why I am not all too impressed with the Joint. I noticed a considerably different adjustment between me and my boyfriend whereas he got much more work done to him (because he listed all the areas as being affected). So if you want a good adjustment, I suggest checking off all the boxes for upper/​lower/​mid back, neck, hip, etc. since they mainly go off what you tell them.
FRIENDLY TIP: First time, your adjustment will cost $ 19. Any time after that and it will be $ 29 however you can get any of the deals/​packages where you pay a lump sum or a monthly fee for a set amount of adjustments. I got my BF the 10 adjustments for $ 142 (holiday pricing).

So I’ve been going to the chiropractor since 2007, and have been adjusted by now 5 different chiropractors. Different chiros have different philosophies and styles. One chiro I went to would adjust pretty much every single point in your body regardless of if you needed it or not. Even knees, wrists, fingers and toes. Another did massage, electric stimulation and a back roller to loosen up your back in addition to the adjustment. A couple chiros I’d seen consider themselves almost like primary physicians where they will address ANY concern you have whether its an cough, sore throat or orthopedic concern.
This chiro appears to be the opposite of all of the above. Since he’s being paid a small amount for an adjustment he’s getting people in and out within minutes. It’s not lengthy and I have to question how much he knows about health etc. That said, if you’re JUST looking for an adjustment at an amazing price, this is the place to go. Dr. Marshall does solid adjustments every time — he’s consistent and can do the hard adjustments on my hips (my hips are very hard to adjust apparently). Normally I can afford a $ 50 adjustment about once a month… But here, I can get 4 simple adjustments for $ 50 a month. If you can get your spouse to give you a massage beforehand and you know enough about alternative medicine/​health/​homeopathy yourself or through another practitioner, you can just go here to get adjusted.
