There are 2 things I love about NUCCA. First, how gentle the adjustments are. Second, each time I visit, Dr. Lee checks my measurements. If everything is aligned, no adjustment is needed. If not, she works her magic. I am able to hold the alignment for longer now and usually only need a few adjustments per year. Proof that this type of chiropractic treatment really works.

Dr. Lee and staff are skilled, caring and great to work with. The techniques Dr. Lee use in my care have resolved, and continue to improve, long-standing structural issues that have resulted in significant and desired improvements. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and her clinic!

Its hard to only give 5 stars. I thought there was no hope for me until I met Dr Lee. I am so grateful for their expertise. They are gental and go through every step of every detail making the experience transformative and relieving.

Before seeing Dr. Lee, I was having daily dizziness, vertigo attacks, horrible headaches for over 5 months straight. Because of this treatment I am finally having days that I am symptom free which has literally changed my quality of life. I still have a long way to got until I reach stability but I am definitely on the right path towards healing because of this treatment. The treatment is non invasive but I find I am exhausted following it. It is important to note that this treatment will require multiple appointments and won’t happen overnight but I assure you, persistence, patience and trusting in the process is worth it. If you have tried many different treatment options with no symptom relief this may just be the treatment for you. Barbara at the front desk is absolutely delightful to work with. Thank you so much to Dr. Lee and Barbara for helping improve my quality of life again.

I can't say enough about Uc Life . It has helped me get my life back. I never realized how much a small adjustment could make such a big impact on my health. I highly recommend it if youre looking for a chiropractor. Ive tried conventional chiropractors in the past and I didnt get much relief. Its only been less than 2 months and its a big difference! Thank you Dr Lee !

I went to UC Life to see if I could get some help for the pain i was having on the right side of my body , hip and knee . It was becoming overwhelming . Well not only did Dr Lee help me with that pain but with my chronic back pain I've had for 40 + years . I can't say enough about it and Dr Lee . Ive been to other conventional chiropractors in the past and I did not get much relief. I was so surprised at how such small adjustments could make such a huge difference in my quality of life in a fairly small amount of time . Im so grateful that I was referred by a friend and decided to go . Thank you Dr Lee , Barbara and UC Life .

Dr. Lee has been fabulous to work with. I've had so much relief in my chronic neck pain and ongoing headaches, after a relatively short period of time. I only wish I would have known about this type of practice and Dr. Lee sooner. Her office is a pleasure to walk into and Barbara always makes me feel so welcome. Can't say enough about how great my experience has been - highly recommend Dr. Lee for real change in chronic pain. She is extremely knowledgeable and it is obvious how invested she is in her patients. This is reflected in her schedule as well, which even allows for weekend appts. Thank you again for providing relief I honestly didn't know was possible after all these years.

Dr. Lee at UC Life provides exceptional care from evaluation through treatment. When I first began my gentle adjustments, I was lucky if my alignment held for even 24 hours. A few months later, I’ve been holding my alignment for over two months...and counting. I’ll continue to update this review as my health and well-being keep improving in the months ahead.

I searched up Upper Cervical Chiropractors after seeing some videos online of symptoms I was having. I had been to all the doctors and specialists and they all told me I was very healthy and couldn’t explain why I was feeling the way I was. They wished they could fix me but they had nothing. I had relentless lightheadedness and brain fog, migraines/headaches stemming from my neck and awful fatigue along with a massive list of other symptoms. After going to UCLife and having adjustments I can feel a shift in my everyday. The lightheadedness (worst daily symptom I had) is no longer. My days are getting better and I have a plan going forward. Healing is not linear is one of the biggest lessons I learned from Dr. Lee and will carry that with me going forward. I now feel that I have someone in my corner and it’s everything! From being an oversharing sobbing mess at my first appointment to now, Dr. Lee has helped me so much and for that I am forever grateful.

Before I started seeing Dr. Lee, I struggled with chronic back pain, headaches, and neck pain. Since beginning treatment with her, my pain has improved tremendously. Dr. Lee is truly amazing, and the atmosphere at UC Chiropractic is always so welcoming. Barbara, the office manager, is wonderfully helpful and greets everyone with such cheerful warmth. If you’re suffering from pain, I highly recommend seeing Dr. Lee — she’s exceptional!

Before seeing Dr. Lee, I was having severe vertigo attacks daily, horrible migraines, my balance was off, and was completely out of alignment, and my neck pain was almost unbearable. I quickly found out Dr. Lee is one of a kind in the way that most doctors will not touch your C1 or C2 vertebrae, and after my first appointment (where we took x-rays of my neck) she found out they most of the issue. I ended up seeing her regularly and within a matter of weeks, my vertigo attacks, my neck pain, my balance, everything was falling back into place and I felt like myself again… but better than before. I honestly have no idea where I would be without Dr. Lee - I was missing work, I could barely drive, she truly is an expert in her field and I would recommend her to anyone suffering from any of the above 12/10. If you have tried many different options and haven’t found a solution for vertigo, neck, pain, balance, migraines… she may be exactly the missing piece you’re looking for. When you make an appointment, you can be met by another wonderful lady named Barbara at the front desk who does nothing but take care of you as well. Thank you so much to Dr. Lee and Barbara for helping change my life for the absolute better.
