Dr. Luke was fantastic. I started going to him for a recurring shoulder pain and within just a few sessions it was completely gone and hasn't come back in over a year! He continued working to help me with back issues and have given me so much great advice to improve my posture and comfortability in my day to day life. Such a friendly environment, I would highly recommend!

I've been treated by Dr. Luke several times. He is professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend him. I recently went to see Dr. Luke for a back strain and felt better walking out of the office. Dr. Luke also gave me instructions on what to do at home in order to improve and alleviate stress on my back. Thanks so much Dr. Luke!

Love Dr. Luke, love Sarah at the front, love that massage chair in the waiting area. My constant ache in my neck and hip are relieved and Dr. Luke also walks me through exercises out of the office I can do to truly help better me. The staff here are so kind and Total Balance is such an incredible part of this community!

I have previously had terrible experiences with chiropractors and Dr. Luke alleviated not only my worries and stresses about going to a chiropractor, but all of my PAIN! I've had terrible back pain for years and Dr. Luke has finally been able to resolve it for me. I send everyone I know to him. Also, he is so personable and funny that it makes my trips in much more enjoyable. Thank you, Dr. Luke!

Dr. Luke is kind, thorough, and does an excellent job individualizing your concerns. His office is clean and modern. I have dealt with a frustrating problem for months and Dr. Luke (no pun!) adjusted his approach until a solution was in place. Scheduling is simple with his app, and his office staff are always smiling and helpful.
