San Marcos Chiropractic

Dr. Tim is one of a kind, careing & nice doctor I know. Because I have tried other chiropractors. I am highly RECOMMEND Dr. TIM for your back problem & over all stress too. Because he helped me get better. He really care what your saying and listens to you needs. Than after talking w/​you he recommends options for what you need to work on. He also work with your payment plans. So if anyone who’s looking to get better call him and do go see him!!!

I usually don’t write reviews but after several visits with Dr. Tim decided I would get the word out. I was in lots of pain and was left with a stiff neck after a pretty bad vehicle accident. I had never been to a chiropractor before and was a little skeptical due to people telling me that it was better to wait after an accident. However because of the pain I was in, decided why not, I’m already hurting, it can’t be any worse. I’m so glad I made that decision. It’s like his hands were magical, almost instantly experienced immediate relief. The other nice thing was I just gave him my car insurance info and he took care of billing my insurance. I had a total of 12 sessions and was left feeling brand new. I recommend Dr. Tim to all my friends and family.

I had a visit with Dr. Tim yesterday after having a really bad stiff neck and shoulders with little range of motion on my right and left side. I called, and he said come in the next 30 mins.
The office is very clean, he was very nice and professional. I was recommended by a co-​worker thats been going to him for lower back problems. He has improved by seeing him.
He did an evaluation, explained to me the root cause of my issues, did an adjustment and gave me an exercise to do. From yesterday to today, big improvement! I was able to sleep last night for once. I will being seeing him 4 more times. I will update my review when Im complete with my sessions.
I’ve seen only one other Chiro before him and it wasn’t good. Im thrilled so far with Dr. Tim!

I have had a hip problem for years. Dr. Tim is amazing! He has helped my hip and I am no longer limping on long walks. I will always continue going to him.

I cannot express how grateful I am for finding Dr. Tim! I had herniated a disk in my lower back and couldn’t drive to my normal chiropractor in Carlsbad, so I turned to Unilocal for someone close by. All of his 5 star reviews are for good reason. Dr. Tim is a huge step above. He truly cares about healing you and helping you rebuild. He doesn’t try to sell you products or rope you into a long term care contract. He took the time to figure out the root cause of the herniated disc. He explained to me what the problem was and how to fix it. I followed his at home care instructions for icing and did the exercises he gave me. In 6 weeks I was able to heal the herniated disk and actually feel STRONGER than I had in months. No injections, no surgery. It is possible to heal a herniated disk with the right chiropractic care. I couldn’t recommend Dr. Tim more strongly. I wouldn’t waste my time anywhere else — go to Dr. Tim.

I was so blown away by Dr. Tim’s professionalism and compassion that I had to finally create my Unilocal account just to write a great review about his business.
Last week I woke up with the most terrible neck and upper back pain and began my search for the best Chiropractor in San Marcos and Dr. Tim’s office popped up at the top of the reviews. I set up an appointment and when I went in for my adjustment, I didn’t expect to instantly feel better after 1 treatment but guess what? It worked. I can’t thank him enough for literally taking my pain away. Thank you again for everything!

Dr. Tim was a lifesaver for me. I had horrible neck and back pain, and my mobility was severely curtailed. Honestly, I was a major mess. Even though I had heard wonderful things about Dr. Tim from a good friend of mine, I was a little reluctant to make the appointment. I have been to other chiropractors many times, and found there were good and not-​so-​good chiropractors. I didn’t want to chance making things worse. I didn’t really know if I could be helped.
So, I put it off. I went multiple times to a very skilled and experienced massage therapist, hoping for some relief. But after three 90-​min appointments in the span of one week, and no improvement, I was forced to rethink things. It was time to seek Dr. Tim’s help.
Can I just say, «WOW!» What a difference a day makes? In just one visit, I was already feeling better! Dr. Tim was able to find the problem areas and make the adjustments, quickly and skillfully. No pain at all. In four visits, I was a new person. Really.Truly.Amazing!
Dr. Tim has also suggested some quick and easy techniques I can use at home to maintain my progress. He really does have your best interests at heart. If you need help and live in the area, Dr. Tim is the man. He put me back together again. NO soreness, no stiffness, and no pain anymore. I am truly grateful.

Professional, clean, & to the point.
Dr. Tim is clearly knowledgable in his craft and takes good care of his patients. I’ll be adding periodic visits to my regular routine.

I Went to Dr. Tim today after dealing with severe back pain for years. After finding out from my primary care doctor through X-​rays that I have degenerative disc disease, my options for treatment was to pretty much be on pain medication. There was no real hope of relief from the back pain until my visit today with Dr. Tim. I’ve been to other chiropractors in the area and couldn’t seem to get answers or relief from the pain so I thought I would try again to see if I could get a different result and I’m sure glad I did because I felt pain relief before I even left his office! The difference with Dr. Tim is that he listened to what the root cause of my pain was, he was very patient, and explained the cause and reason behind the pain. I would definitely recommend him!

San Marcos Chiropractic and Dr. Tim are THE BEST. I followed him from another office 6 years ago. I have been a patient of his for 10 years for my chronic TMJ. When I first started with him, I couldn’t open my mouth without grinding and poping. I had all kinds of neck issues from it too. I went from barely opening my mouth and limited on what foods I could eat to a monthly adjustment just to keep things where they should be. It is one of the best things I have ever done for my health.

Severe back/​neck pain and Dr. Tim’s outstanding Unilocal reviews ultimately led me to him 2 years ago. Simply put, the pain that I had lived with for too long, interrupted my quality of life, and forced me to take pain killers on a regular basis is gone. And it was gone quickly. I still see Dr. Tim to this day to continue feeling great and so that I never risk going back to that depressing place where I was before. Dr. Tim’s adjustments, from my head to my feet, leave everything freed up and feeling wonderful.
I was very worried that my pain would return while being pregnant last year, but Dr. Tim’s monthly adjustments are all that it took to say aligned and pain-​free throughout my pregnancy. Fast forward to after pregnancy: the stress of raising 3 kids, carrying a heavy baby, and nursing throughout the day and night is enough to cause even the most fit, aligned mother some aches and pains. With that said, I honestly don’t know if my neck and my back would be in good enough shape to still be holding and nursing my baby to this day without Dr. Tim. And for just that alone, I am so grateful.
Dr. Tim does not take x-​rays because he doesn’t need to. He is a master at discovering your problem areas with only his eyes and gentle touch. There have been a couple of times that I went in experiencing a little pain that was secondary to my main problem, and without even telling Dr. Tim about it, he went to that spot and adjusted it.
Besides being a miracle worker, he is a really great, down to earth guy. I’m an RN at a local hospital, and he has one of the best bedside manners I have ever seen. He is so kind and patient. He listens and empathizes with you whether you’re talking about your bad back or your bad day at work. He will teach you exercises and stretches that you can do at home. He is extremely personable. He answers his own phone and gives you a telephone reminder the day before your appointment. Not exactly on time or need to change it? No problem. Whatever works for you. Need to get in same day? Come on down. Honestly, I don’t know how Dr. Tim manages to do it all, but he does and he does it all with such class and professionalism. He really restores my faith in healthcare. Thank you, Dr. Tim.

Dr. Tim has helped me maintain my back and neck issues. He does more than the 3 typical adjustment. He gives you exercises and activities to keep you healthy and active in what you enjoy doing.

I am so grateful to Dr. Tahmisian for treating me and keeping me pain-​free after years of suffering chronic lower back pain. I felt relief after my first visit and was pain free after my third. Now, I only go once a month for maintenance adjustments. I really appreciate the affordable price he charges for the exceptional quality of care he provides. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Tahmisian to anyone looking for a chiropractor.

I have been searching chiropractor and found Dr. Tim on yulp. He’s review was great so I started seeing Dr. Tim for about 10 weeks now for herniated, and sciatica. When I first went to see him I was barely walking. And now I’m walking.Dr. Tim is a great chiropractor and a gentleman. He is very personal with your individual needs. I. highly recommend Dr. Tim for your back problems!!!

Dr. Tim, was wonderful, gentle, very thorough and did quite a few things I had not experienced with other chiropractors before. He works on you from the feet up to the neck. I have tried five different chiropractors so far and this was by far the most impressive and beneficial adjustment I have ever experienced before. I will definitely go back for follow-​up and go every month to stay in tune. Great experience for sure.

I was referred to Dr. Tim after going to another chiropractor in La Costa who assessed me for a mere «36 visits» after telling me my immune system was severely compromised (after doing a scan of my palm for 5 minutes). I showed my diagnosis and treatment plan to several of the chiropractors I work with (I work for a worksite healthcare company) and they immediately told me to be warned and not go to this place. They said there are a lot of very sketchy healthcare providers who are into scaring patients and talking them into way more than they actually need. I am a marathon runner and have had my share of injuries however in no way did I need this many visits.
Our rockstar chiropractor at my work referred me to his friend and colleague, Dr. Tim! I found him on Unilocal and booked right away. He is so thorough, patient, and understanding about all of my questions and concerns. His diagnosis and treatment plan is like getting PT and chiro all in one (he had my work on certain strengthening exercises to help the root problem). I continue to see him once/​month for maintenance since I do run a lot. He is extremely realistic with how often I need to come in to ensure my feet, hips, back are all in alignment to help me continue to run efficiently. He is a very honest healthcare professional who gives chiropractors a good name. Finally!!!

I have been a patient of Dr Tim for about 4 years now. I was referred to him from a different Chiropractor in the San Diego area after relocating to San Marcos. I am a fairly unique patient I have two metal hip replacements. Whenever, I need an adjustment I call Dr. Tim and he get me right in. I have never experienced a time that he has not been able to get me in. His times are convenient to fit within a working professionals schedule.
Dr. Tim is extremely knowledgable about the anatomy of the body and nutritional requirements a human body needs via evidence based medicine literature. He is not shy to help give out referrals to other experts to help you heal and be pain free if he feels it is out of his area of expertise. He is excellent at helping me understand my limitations with hip replacements (rotation) and gives me useful exercises to help decrease my arthritic knees after having massive doses of steroids apart of chemotherapy in the past.
He makes sure to do a full assessment of your body, even if he is busy. He taylors the adjustment to your body needs and limitations. I have been to other chiropactors that just don’t seem to be able to get the spots in the upper and lower back like he can. He is the only doctor that I have ever had to follows-​up after a session to see how I am doing and continues to follow-​up.
His office is clean, professional and friendly. His rates are very economical. He is very good at what he does and is never pushy. I recommend him to all my friends and family. I have recommended him to many friends and family. It is clear that Dr. Tim wants to help you heal and use realistic lifestyle changes to not become dependent on Chiropractic treatments. He is big on total wellness (nutrition, sleep, exercise, massage and spinal work.) Incredibly grateful my previous chiropractor referred me to him. He is hands down the best and has been able to help me avoid a knee replacement with his healing techniques. Thanks Dr. Tim!

I have been a patient of Dr Tim for 7 years and I only have good things to say about him. I saw him through each of my 3 pregnancies and he helped me with the back and hip pain I was experiencing. I see him on a regular basis even when I am not pregnant and he can tell the areas that are bothering me without me even telling him. He is very knowledgable about his practice. He has also given me excercises to do at home which have really helped.
I have been to other chiropractors and even worked at another chiropractors office. Both experiences were the same as far as receiving the same type of adjustment every time I went even if I had different pain example pain in my knee or foot. Dr. Tim has worked on my feet and even my jaw. He adjusts only what need to be adjusted, he taylors the adjustment to your body’s needs.
His office is clean, professional and friendly. He has a very affordable rate too. He is not pushy and listens to your body’s needs. He is very good at what he does and I have recommended him to many friends and family. His goal is to make you better so eventually you are not dependent on chiropractic.

I’ve been fortunate enough to be a patient of Dr. Tim for over 10 years now and don’t have enough good words to say about him and his practice! He is a fantastic Chiropractor! Dr. Tim takes the time he needs with each patient, and actually helps you HEAL! Through my many cheerleading injuries throughout the years he has always been my go to doctor for Chiropractic care. He also has a wonderful bedside manner and truly cares about each patient and makes a great effort to get to know everyone on a personal level! Never have I had any doctor care how my family is doing and really be interested in my response. I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Tim Tahmisian other than if you go to him you will never ever have to look for another Chiropractor again! He is just that amazing!!!
–Patient for life :-)

I have been a patient of Dr. Tim’s for about 12 years and wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else! He treats both me and my husband as well as several friends and coworkers.
A lot of chiropractors tell you that you have to come all the time in order to get better, I agree with Jaclyn p., he actually does try to make you better so you do not have to come as often. He also shows you stretches and exercises that help heal and/​or prevent further injury. I also feel that he is extremely affordable.
Thanks Dr. Tim!
