Peter Tekenbroek3 maanden geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“I had a lot of trouble with my shoulders, lower back, and neck. At this chiropractor everything turned out fine. I walk out whistling again. Customer friendliness is top-notch and easy-going. Keep up the good work!”
Fam1122 Van Klink6 maanden geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“I was already being treated for hip/back complaints and asked whether something could also be done about my long-term carpal tunnel complaints. It was possible and serious, after 1 treatment (!!!) already so much improvement!! Truly remarkable and wonderful!”
Marta11 maanden geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“For a few months I struggled with severe headaches and neck and shoulder pain that seriously limited my daily life. It got so bad that I sometimes felt powerless. I first tried to find relief with a Thai neck and shoulder massage, but unfortunately that did not help. On the advice of several acquaintances I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Malone, and that was absolutely the best choice I could have made. After just a few treatments I noticed a world of difference: my headaches are completely gone and the pain in my neck and shoulders is now almost gone. Although my treat”
DJM Verhageneen jaar geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“Very effective and professional treatment. The frequent, short treatment track quickly shows more lasting results. Do not let the intensity scare you off. It gave me a much bigger effect because I now experience lasting improvement. Also a pleasant personality, both chiropractor Malone and his assistants.”
Rob Willemsteijneen jaar geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“Steve Malone is a very skilled chiropractor. He has been helping me regularly for years, always with good results. He listens to your problems, gives good advice, and always has time for a chat. A fine person. Highly recommended.”
Jacqueline van Buitenen2 jaar geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“After a year of headache complaints, and visits to my GP and neurologist without a solution for my problem, I came to Dr. Malone's practice. I noticed results right after the first treatment. Now, 10 treatments further, I am finally pain-free and have my enjoyment of life back. And what a pleasant team, they made me feel very welcome.”
Nishkah Swart3 jaar geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“This was my first experience with a chiropractor and I can only say that I am impressed. I had back and head pain for months and my GP kept telling me to go to a physiotherapist. They just had me do exercises every time and did not really communicate that they had a plan or understood the problem. Very happy with my first visit to Embody Chiro. From the very first conversation they explained the process and how they work. I just had my first appointment, they took photos of my posture, and Dr. Malone really did a full examination”
Frank Wijnands3 jaar geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“Not being familiar with chiropractic care, I found Embody Health through a search. If you are looking for a chiropractor, look no further. I had shoulder and neck problems for a year to a year and a half. Now after 12 treatments I feel so much better that my pain is no longer a daily grind. Dr. Stephen Malone is a very skilled chiropractor, friendly, and takes the time for you. This treatment helped me a lot and I would recommend Dr. Stephen to everyone.”
eeg bollebakker7 jaar geleden · Alphen a/d Rijn | Google review · Translated from the original“Last weekend I had terrible trouble with my neck. I have been seeing chiropractors for a while now and had already been to two. At the start of the week I called my chiropractor but could not get through until Thursday afternoon, so I went looking for another chiropractor and found one via Google: Dr. Malone of Embody Health. As I said, I have some experience with chiropractors, so I can compare fairly well. My first conversation with Dr. Malone was already a revelation. What he observed, told me, and showed me, I had never heard or seen before. I came in with a”
Fanni Egresits3 maanden geleden · Rotterdam | Google review“Stephan is honestly such an easy going person. I loved how easily time flew by during our sessions. He is naturally curious, asks a lot of questions, and connects the dots quickly solving your problem. His Rotterdam location is new besides his other existing popular locations, but that just means you can still grab a spot while it lasts. I can trustfully recommend him if you are in search of a chiropractor!”

Boris Fernández Alcívareen jaar geleden · Rotterdam | Google review · Translated from the original“My experience at the clinic was phenomenal. I am a dentist and implantologist and I spend many hours in a not very ergonomic posture when I work. My muscles overload easily. I came to this clinic for lower back and neck pain. They treated me very professionally and listened carefully to the complaints I had. After the first session I already noticed some improvement. Now I am a regular customer and the only thing I can say is that I wish I had started sooner!!!!”
Lena Sergeveen jaar geleden · Rotterdam | Google review · Translated from the original“I am very happy with how Stefan relieves my pain. I have two herniated discs and I always used to take painkillers to get rid of the pain. But since I started treatment with Stefan, I have not taken any painkillers for a year now. Huge thanks, Stefan.”
Inge Reichmaneen jaar geleden · Rotterdam | Google review“I have a great experience with Embody Chiro. I had back problems for a long time and it got worse again. I was quite desperate as I had only 6 weeks before I was leaving for a long time living in the jungle in Latin America. I went twice a for a treatment for 6 weeks and they really got me back on track. Dr. Malone and Dr. Drakes are both great chiropractors. I liked it to see both of them as their style is very similar but they also have their own way and see/focus on different things as well. Everybody who works at Embody is very friendly. I really enjoyed the personal informal atmosphere. T”
