Since that time he has continued treating patients, managing clinics and rehabilitating spines through mostly spinal subluxation-​based Diversified adjusting, traction therapy, and corrective therapeutic exercise.

How much do real chiropractic offices charge, anyway? $ 50? If they spend even 15 minutes per appointment that would be better value for your money than you get here.
I paid $ 19 — while my insurance covers chiropractic, The Joint just doesn’t TAKE insurance, correct, ANY insurance — and was seen for about 3 minutes. The chiropractor talked a mile a minute. Without warning he did something that REALLY hurt, and then told me to trust him. Why the heck should I trust you? I met you 30 seconds ago and you haven’t even asked me my name.
I came out feeling just as much pain as before. What a waste.

I have been coming here for a couple of months. I absolutely LOVE this place. Dr. Stuart is remarkable. He is so gentle and kind. Catherine and Pamela are wonderful women too. The compassion from the whole establishment is unbelievable! Being a breast cancer survivor, Dr. Stuart has been so understanding, and helps me so much!

Very easy walk in system, you can get an adjustment just about whenever you need one. But, I found the chiropractor that I saw to be more interested in selling me to come back on a regular basis, than actually answering my questions about why I was having the pain that caused me to seek out a chiropractor in the first place.

Both of the front desk ladies are very professional and helpful as are the Doctors. I can only speak for myself. My son loves his adjustments but I find Dr. S less compassionate of other health complications than the other Dr. (Dr. V?) I have RA, Fibro and I have had six surgeries in the last five years so I understand that I am not a typical patient and I should probably seek more traditional chiropractor care in the future. The reason? During an adjustment I had a very sharp pain in my rib and his response lacked compassion and included a shoulder shrug. I feel that the comments made showed a lack of information about my condition. I will continue to see the other Dr. for the rest of my contract who does have an understanding of my situation and didn’t just hear what I said, but listened. I love the concept of The Joint! and the pricing even if it isn’t a good fit for me. My son will continue his chiropractic care at this location.

My pained body is very grateful for this place! After a month of prolonged back and hip pain that was building up on itself I had to find a quick chiropractor appointment ASAP, and google led me to The Joint! Pamela at the front desk was very nice and helpful and wasn’t pushy about the membership (which I’m totally going to be buying once I get paid!). I’ve been to a different chiropractor where they took X-​rays of my entire spine and hips so I literally know what is wrong with me, and would know if he (Stuart who did my adjustment), was feeling out incorrect things. But he told me everything I already knew to be true as well as let me know I was making my neck worse by stretching it, so I felt a lot more at ease with his knowledge! Their hours are also super convenient for those who are constantly busy all over the valley like I am. His adjustment was great and it immediately relieved about 80% of my pain! It may sound weird but his adjustment on my neck, when he had his hands on my ears and twisted, did not cause any discomfort on my multiple piercings (I know it sounds trivial but just try having a hair dresser yank your piercing with a comb! Ouch!!!). Will be back ASAP since my body is so broken!
(Also you can use your membership in different states, which is great for broken people like me who travel!)

Today was my first visit here & it was a great experience. They don’t allow appointments, it’s walk in basis only which is extremely convenient when you’re on the go! Dr. Stuart was awesome in his adjustment, teaching and his recommendation for treatment to help with the issues I’ve been experiencing. I left there on a monthly plan & on my next day off I’ll be in for another session.
THANKS!

Not impressed here. This was my first time at a chiropractor so I don’t know what I should have expected. A single, no more than 10 minute adjustment seems to be too little for me. And since I am doing this from my couch, feeling worse this morning than I have almost all week (and could not make it to work as a result), I will not be returning. YMMV, though,. If need an affordable and quick chiropractic location this is it. I just feel like I could have saved the $ 19 (which is not a scam, btw) and been better off.

I’ve had a membership to the joint of over a year now and I get regular adjustments. I suffer from migraines and the regular adjustments help me so much. I also had a really bad car wreck with I was 16 that left me with whiplash. It flares up every so often and regular adjustments have helped me keep that under control. Now, I’m pregnant and I’m having extreme pain in my pelvic area. I’m talking pain so bad that it takes my breath away and I can’t walk! My walk today was reduced to a shuffle. I went in for relief and Jim gave me a fantastic adjustment! I was able to walk out of the office at a normal pace with no pain! I’m so grateful to the care I’ve received from all the joint docs I’ve seen across the valley/​state/​country. I’ve been able to use my membership as far away as Austin, TX! The joint truly is a lifesaver.

I like the idea of this and the pricing, but the chiropractor (not saying any names… bald) made me feel uneasy about his capabilities. I left Youfit as an emergency because I pinched my neck/​left shoulder on a seated shoulder extension machine. As I walked in with my neck pinched on one side (you can totally tell — because my head was tilted slightly to the direction of the hurt side and that I had to turn my upper body to give someone any eye-​eye attention. The chiropractor told me what I had and that he can fix it… how can you tell by just looking at me? Again I like the idea of this place, and will try it again, but most likely not at this location. The reviews here make me a believer.

This place is awesome. Can’t say enough good things! They are affordable, have convenient hours, and awesome staff. The two receptionists are so warm and welcoming. Don’t even get me started on Dr. Stuart… he is phenomenal! He really knows his stuff. After a few visits he knows how to adjust you when your body just doesn’t want to be adjusted! I always leave feeling great. Also, the memberships are an awesome deal if you get into a routine of coming once a week (your body will thank you!) Check them out!

Some guy was complaining about the introductory offer. It’s likely he was trying to go to various locations and acting like a first timer.
I came here expecting there to be a catch but just paid $ 19 (no tax) as stated. I was so happy with my adjustment that I came back the following week and signed up for the $ 49/​mo plan which includes 4 adjustments then $ 12 thereafter! My first month is unlimited adjustments and I’m already on my third the first week! I put my back out and it’s totally helping, no complaints. Even the pay as you go plan $ 29/​adjustment is good deal.
I’ll be a regular here.

Sign in the door says $ 19, the girl in the phone says $ 19, but when you show up they want to charge you more than that!!! $ 29 is not $ 19 folks!
False advertising is simply bad business and that is the type of business that thus chiropractor is apparently! Bad business!!!
Charge whatever you’d like to charge, but be up front about it! Crooked business practices won’t ever be successful in the long run!
You lost this patient and likely many others due to shady business practices!

I’ve never gotten adjusted before, (besides trying it myself or a friend doing that bear hug thing) so I had no idea this worked so well. I had such constant severe pain in my lower back I didn’t think if was related to my spine. I pretty much limped in here, figuring it couldn’t hurt to try. I walked out with no pain. Whatever my case is, the pain and swelling builds up slowly over a couple of days if I’m sitting/​laying a certain way, so besides using a donut seat cushion, I’m coming here to get adjusted a few more times until it’s better. It takes the knife out of my tail bone.
Best part here is there’s no appt, which is awesome because my schedule is crazy. They are very quick but very thorough.

I like this location a lot. I went to one in Tempe and they sent me back while the doctor was working with someone else. I felt very strange watching another person get adjusted. This location you are welcome to stay in the waiting room until it is your turn to go back.
Dr Stuart is really a great doctor. Normally I am uncomfortable having manual adjustments and prefer getting adjusted with the activator. When I met dr. Stuart however, I felt comfortable and allowed him to do manual adjustment. I am very happy I did in fact I no longer have to drive up to highway 101 and 59th Ave to get adjusted. I have also been having issues with TMJ. Dr. Stuart has been working with it and it’s feeling much better.

I was a patient at the Joint for over a year and was thrilled with the chiropractor, Dr Drew. However, when he left suddenly the new chiropractor ignored my teenager’s requests for how he needed to be adjusted and walked out in more pain than he had come in with.
Further, when I cancelled his membership for an unrelated reason, they charged me for the month I cancelled (understandable since it was close to the normal billing date), plus another month afterwards. When I complained that they shouldn’t be charging me for an additional month my concerns were dismissed out of hand by the person at the desk.

I am a fairly young person to have such back upper back and neck pain. It got so bad I didn’t know where to turn. Thank goodness The Joint is open on Sundays. As soon as it opened that Sunday morning, I was there. After seeing Dr. Tom a few times, I was finally starting to feel like my old self. I knew the paint wasn’t going to miraculously go away that day, but a few weeks later, I was waking up and not feeling like a 95 year old woman! Now I go just to maintain and adjust some of the work day kinks.

Dr. Drew is a great doctor hands down. And have always had excellent service until I had to cancel our account. We had placed our account on hold because we were going to be gone for the summer. While we were gone circumstances had produced a need to move to another state. So I called the month it was going to begin billing again to request to terminate. The receptionist became very ugly and demanded I sent her proof that we were moving and refused to fax me the form demanding that I come in to complete them. We were out of town so I couldn’t. Before we left I requested that our credit card be removed from the account and to only use our debit. I was told it would be done. Upon returning home they billed the credit card that was to be terminated. The card went over the limit causing our interest rate to go up.
All the while we had another account with The Joint in Scottsdale whom we contacted as well. They had no trouble handling it over the phone and faxing the forms.

I came here for an adjustment for my neck and lower back. It was nice being able to walk in without an appointment and the lady at the reception desk was courteous and helpful. After filling out the requisite forms and waiting for a short while, I was called into the main chiropractic are. The large space was dimly lit for a more relaxing atmosphere and the chiropractor explained and performed the procedure well. It was a quick first visit and cost only 19 bucks, and while the receptionist explained available treatment plans, there was no hard sell.

When my wife’s back started to really hurt at three o’clock in the morning on a Sunday, I despaired. This wasn’t a good time for one’s back to go out because, as I learned in the past, no chiropractors are open!
.. .at least that’s what I thought.. .
A few places make a pretense of being open «by request» but when I emailed one, I didn’t get a call back. A look on Unilocal did reveal The Joint as being open on a Sunday – since we were at a loss to try anything else that day, we decided to give it a try. Turns out that The Joint is owned by the same people that own Massage Envy, and they have a similar concept – if you’re a member, you can go to any Joint at any time for service as per the rules of your plan. Nice! My wife joined, and she got the relief that she was looking for. A few follow-​up appointments later, and the pain was gone.
Keep in mind – this is stripped-​down chiro service. There’s no x-​rays or initial consultations, no water jet beds or IR lasers. If you’re looking for just straight up chiropractic with no commitments, this may be the Joint you’re looking for. Have a look at the reviews. They speak for themselves.
N.B. Not all Joints are open on Sundays, but this one is. :)
