Dr Manson is outstanding! My wife an I suffer from back pain a lot. We're new to NM so finding someone has been difficult. A friend recommended him and he did not disappoint at all. My wife is moving so much better than 2 months ago and my pain is so minimal now and getting better. Dr Manson and his staff are so friendly and down to Earth people. I would highly recommend him to everyone.

Dr Manson is awesome! Two months ago, my wife couldn't walk or move. Now she's moving better than she has in months. The staff here is wonderful and a pleasure to see and talk to each week. I highly recommend Dr Manson to everyone

Very good! He is professional, listens to what you say is bothering you and is excellent about explaining what he's doing and why it will help. Also goes the extra mile to ensure a clean facility.

I was in a car accident last year and felt terrible afterwards. Went to Chirospa for a consultation and went on a treatment plan designed personally for me. They take the time to ask you what is wrong instead of just doing a quick adjustment and sending you out the door. I refer everyone I know to them and wouldn't trust anyone else!

My wife visited twice in June and told Dr. Manson that she was having severe sciatic pain and she was concerned she may have a bulging disc(s). To make a long, detailed story short. Dr. Manson was extremely rude to her and told her that he would not treat her. She asked questions in an attempt to understand what was going on and he was visibly frustrated with her and told her that if she didn't have pain at the top of her foot then she wasn't having sciatic pain.almost like he thought she was lying.

When she went to check out and pay, Dr. Manson's wife came to the front visibly concerned and wanted to make sure my wife wasn't upset.almost as if this is something that happens there and his wife has to smooth things out with upset customers. My wife left in tears. Fast forward 4 weeks.an MRI revealed 2 mild bulging discs and one moderate (L5) that was putting pressure on her sciatic nerve.which is still causing her significant pain although she's only in her 2nd week of physical therapy.

Not only does Dr. Manson not know what sciatic pain is (his definition flies in the face of the Mayo Clinic and Harvard Med School website information).but his bedside manner is awful. My wife is literally the kindest, most gentle woman in the world and he made her feel like a piece of crap. We would absolutely not recommend him.

Went in because I had a muscle spasm in my back and wanted an adjustment. The first appointment was like 2 hours long and I had to answer soooo many questions. All he did for that first appointment was tap some thing on my back. Then he told me he wanted to see me 2 times a week for 3 weeks. When I left I was optimistic and scheduled those appointments.

Next appointment was supposed to be a 30 minute massage and a adjustment, but the massage therapist was not in that day. He convinced me to so a microfascial release that it would be the same as the massage, so I did. My appointment lasted 15 minutes! He did some small massages that were not even close to where I had a spasm and my bill was $117.75! I was so upset, I went to the front and expressed my outrage, but they couldnt do anything and I called ALL my other appointments! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR YOUR MONEY HERE!

I was referred to Dr. Manson after having severe shoulder pain from an auto accident. I had tried everything for the pain. Dr. Manson resolved my issue quickly, affordably, and effectively. I have not had recurring pain in 2 years and counting. Dr. Manson is a gifted and caring chiropractor. His work is exceptional and backed by a diverse understanding of the human body. I trust jim completely.

Chiropractic medicine has come a long way. Dr. Manson has a very scientific approach. It's not all about popping and cracking anymore! My daughter and I both have aggressive S Curve scoliosis. It can be debilitating. Dr. Manson has helped us both. We have many more pain-free days than we have ever had, and we don't have to go all the time. Forget your negative experience from 10 years ago and give this healer an opportunity to help.

My spouse and I were injured in a car accident, we were referred to Dr. Manson and we are extremely satisfied with the service he has provided. As soon as you walk in you automatically feel welcomed and are greeted by such a friendly staff! Dr. Manson and his staff are highly knowledgeable and professional. Every time we walked out of Dr. Manson's office we were feeling better than ever! Thank you for the incredible treatment you have provided us Dr. Manson!

I was pretty disappointed with my first and only visit to this establishment. Having been in pain for a week with a kink in my neck, I was hoping for at least some kind of relief, it's not like I was in an accident, or anything severe, just slept on it wrong. They told me that an adjustment was somewhere around 50$ ( I don't remember the exact number) but that because there was I diagnostic procedure he had to do on this first visit, it would be 140$.

As in pain as I was, I needed some kind of result ASAP, so I agreed. So when I went in, they were very nice, and his "exam" seemed pretty thorough, and then he said " ok now we are going to have a conversation. He spoke to me about stretches I could to help, and how it would be a long process to get me back to "closer to healthy". Then he took out a little tool and tapped my back for about 5 seconds, and sent me on my way.

While informing me that he wants to see me every week at $100 per visit, and that they would send me some emails about the stretches I should do in between visits. A week later with no emails and no change in my pain. I understand that healing takes time and work, but I really wish that I could charge 140$ for a quick conversation with nothing being done in my work, but I imagine if I did, I would not get a lot of repeat customers. I will not be going back

Have been in pain for two months. Been to two other chiropractors they did adjustments, then urgent care which diagnosed me witj sciatica. When pain got unbearable I went to Dr. Manson paid over $100 dollars for him to examine me vaguely and do a small deep tissue massage. Felt better but mostly still the same. Paid less at other chiropractors and got more. No xrays, medication or much more advice than I got on Google. Save your money.

Let Me start with my age: 71 My pain: Had gotten a letter stating; Your Dr. May suggest surgery. My Fear: imagine 71 years old, enjoying laying pavers in the back yard, new to Albuquerque and scared to death that I was at the end of my active life. I went to a psychic fair and met a spiritual healer; she gave me a healing and told me I needed to see a chiropractor.

I had seen one years ago in my 50s and had been satisfied with the treatments. I contacted my insurance Medicare and BC/BS, They cover it, so I looked for a provider in my area. My experience: I can not tell you what they do. I can only tell you my experience. I could not stand for more that a half hour and I'd have to sit down. I was constantly Complaining of pain, my husband was worried, beyond words.

On my first visit Dr. Manson DC-APC " SEEMED " strict and all business, no humor. I learned, he is a humanitarian who does not see you only as his patient, but as a person in Pain and In need of help and encouragement. On this day: I am now being weened from my treatment. I started 1/2/18. I have had 9 sessions. I know treatments are different with each individual But, I know that, the treatments I have had, have gotten me to the point of getting back to Paving my back yard and planning trips of travel, with my Husband. My THANKS: In my heart the Rainbow ends at this address and there is the Golden Treasure of health and the ability to see a bright active life.

I have lots of Traumatic Brain Injury symptoms--and I am awed, inspired, confident and and speedily improving under Dr. Manson's care. NO JOKE--my balance, vision, hearing and speech are returning week by week. Dr. Manson LISTENS AND HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. I have always responded well to chiropractor and naturopathic healing--and this office combines both--while utilizing scientific methods.

Couldn't be in better hands. Aaahh ChiroSpa exudes beauty, soothing, respect and confidence--from the interior design, check in stations, reception staff, office manager, intake exam--well, every atom in the place. Medical massage provided by Lory Slade has been powerful healing element. My insurance is accepted. Walk in and you will be as stunned as I continue to be.

I fell really hard on my shoulder just a few weeks ago. The office staff was great at working with me to be able to get in right away. I've seen the dr just 4 times and I've gone from not being able to move arm to even my chest to full range of motion again. I highly recommend them!

Best chiropractor I've ever been to. The doctor was amazing, spent a good time explaining why I was having pain and had relief after my appointment. The staff was friendly and made me feel welcomed as soon as I step into their office. I would highly recommend him! :

I've suffered from chronic headaches and migraines for as long as I can remember, but after a few visits and a prescribed stretching regiment, Doc Manson and his team redefined what normal meant. I can't really tell you how freeing it is to change from constant pain to being pain-free. Doc Manson succeeded where other chiropractors, acupuncturists, and "modern" medicine failed. I cannot recommend him or his services highly enough.
