Chiropractic care is about much more than simply relieving back and neck pain. Chiropractic care emphasizes on diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal and nervous system, thereby contributing to your overall health and wellbeing. Ensuring that your spine and your entire nervous system operates properly are the primary functions of a chiropractor.
In addition to spine and joint therapy, we emphasize the importance of physiotherapy and utilize cutting-edge techniques including the following rehabilitation modalities listed below. After a thorough examination, we will recommend the appropriate therapy that's best for you for a full recovery and to achieve your health goals.
This will provide important information about you and your specific health condition and goals. Physical, neurological, orthopedic examinations will be performed, and your spinal and muscular condition will be assessed in order to discover conditions that may be affecting your health. We may order laboratory tests, x-rays, and other diagnostic images and procedures as required.

Dr. Lazarus provides an incredible program for the overall health and lifelong wellness of the people he cares for. His ability to listen and understand the needs of his patients gave him the aptitude to treat the members of my family in ways no conventional practitioner could. The depth of his knowledge is extraordinary. If you're looking for someone with the expertise to guide you to a healthier life, Dr. Lazarus is unparalleled.

I can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review for these wonderful people who have been taking such great care of me for the past two years! I've been going to a chiropractor for most of my life so I feel like I have somewhat high standards for the treatment I want to receive (physically and bedside manner-y). I'm so glad I found Dr. Murphy & team a few years ago!
I first started going for normal maintenance adjustments, but after a few months I was in a car accident that required much more frequent appointments. The adjustments are great and I've never had any immediate flare-ups post-appointment (unlike with other chiros I've been to). I was in yet ANOTHER car accident a year later (neither were my fault, I swear) and Dr. Murphy got me right back on track again.
The front desk team is super friendly and supportive. My insurance/billing situation has gotten complicated a few times yet they're always 100% on top of it and make sure it's never stressful for me. It's easy to schedule appts and they send text reminders if you so choose. Location/parking is easy as well. I highly recommend these guys (and gals)!

I am so glad I found out about Dr. Murphy, here on Yelp! For over a year now my right hand has largely been too painful to use much at all. But after only a few visits with Dr. Murphy, I feel I am on the road to recovery. Brief history: A year ago a pain burned in the middle of my right palm and extended all the way up my arm to where my clavicle connects to my sternum.
This joint became visibly enflamed, irritated, and enlarged. My hand hurt so it was difficult to grasp and use a kitchen knife, and painful to sign my name with a pen. After much rest and rehab, and receiving help from several other health practitioners over the past year, this bad situation was improving at such a slow rate progress had slowed to a stop.
I mainly avoided using my right, and it hurt anyway! I knew the muscles and tendons in my right arm and shoulder were far too tight, but I could barely get them to budge and relax. Then I found out Dr. Murphy employs several effective deep tissue relaxing practices, in addition to traditional chiropractic services. These techniques are working, my muscles and tendons are relaxing, and I am healing! In short, Dr. Murphy has been fabulous to me. He has great energy and focus, and magical hands as well. As a plus, for me Dr. Murphy accepts Kaiser insurance.

I was previously seeing another chiropractor in Napa for a long-term shoulder issue. The previous chiropractor never diagnosed me and instead, recommended I come in 3x per week for adjustments. This just did not still right with me. Frustrated with no answers, I turned to Dr. Murphy. He spent almost 45 minutes with me during my initial consultation, explained anatomy and diagnosed my issue.
Instead of recommending 3x a week adjustments without a diagnosis as my previous chiropractor had, he suggested regular strengthening exercises and posture improvements to help improve and prevent future issues. He also adjusted my shoulder utilizing a method not previously used and recommended adjustments every 4 weeks. I am very impressed with Lazarus.
The receptionists and chiropractors truly care about their patients and I am now a devoted client. Additionally, I suffered an acute injury. They fit me in quickly same-day and was referred for an X-ray pending further results. Thank you for your genuine care and treatment.

Dr. Ryan Lazarus is my all-time favorite Chiropractor and healthcare professional. He is a great listener, has miracle healing hands, and is passionate to help his clients achieve better health. The team in the front office are rockstars and always helpful. I trust "Team LC" with all my chiropractic needs!

Today was a rough day for me, I drove all over Napa to be told 6 times "No, we can't adjust you today" as I was just about to give up I scrolled yelp 1 more time and called Lazarus Chiro, the women in front asked me what's wrong and I told them I had a rugby game last Saturday and I was in so much pain it was hard to walk, bend, move she said come into the office in 20 minutes and they'd squeeze me in.
I was already outside in the parking lot. Dr. Ryan knew quickly what was wrong with me when I explained my symptoms he said it was a SI INJURY(got lost) and he popped my Pelvis back into place, my back muscles are really sore right now but that sharp stabbing pain I was having when i stood up or walked is completely gone. I'm on Ice now so hopefully by Friday I'll be back on the rugby field thanks for the help and I'll be back for sure.

This review is LONG overdue! I have been going to Dr. Murphy at Lazarus for a couple of years now. Having been in a bad car accident many years ago, I have chronic back pain that makes it hard to even stand sometimes. I have been to several chiropractors over the years and I can say without question that he is THE BEST by leaps and bounds. Not only is he always super nice and positive with a huge smile (my 4 year old daughter has her first crush!), what sets him apart is that he takes the time to loosen up my muscles before doing an adjustment.
Even my last favorite chiropractor never did that. It makes such a big difference. In the past, I have had to get adjustments weekly and even several times a week when I am in pain. Not with him. I will get an adjustment and sometimes I will have a follow up the next week, but often times I won't need to go back for months. I give him bonus points for his music selection in the office:-) Go to Lazarus Chiropractic- you will be so grateful that you did!

I first went to Dr. Lazarus because of a weird ankle pain that I couldn't figure out. I was looking for a doctor that wouldn't just give me a cortisone injection and send me on my way. Dr. Lazarus and the muscle therapist, JC, were able to show me the bigger picture of what was going on with my muscles and tendons. They not only treated the issue in the office but also provided at home exercises and stretches that helped ease the discomfort and treat the underlying cause of the pain.
As a photographer and active person I end up with a lot of aches and pains. I am happy to have found a go to person that can give me building blocks to relieve the aches and also prevent future injury.

I live in Southern California, but after more than a week of traveling, my back and hips were out of whack. Dr Murphy was amazing. I was concerned the pain in my back would prevent me from running in the San Francisco Marathon. He listened to my concerns, targeted my pain, and took the time to put me back in line. Truly a caring and wonderful group. I recommend them to anyone who lives in the area, or who like me, wound up in a crisis far from home. Thank you, Dr Murphy!

Dr. Murphy is a great chiropractor who takes his time getting to understand his clients specific issues and needs and attending to them. He is very thorough and skilled and has helped me immensely. I highly recommend Dr. Murphy to anyone and everyone with back and neck issues, and have referred quite a few friends to him. He's friendly, kind, and really great at what he does. Lazarus chiropractic gets an A+ from me!

I'm a full believe in the holistic approach to their healing method here. Dr. Lazarus is a wealth of knowledge and passionate about his craft. I have also seen Dr. Adam who does absolutely fantastic work as well. I have had an ongoing back spasm for nearly 8 months, been to other chiropractors, physical therapy and been prescribed pills. After 4 treatments with Dr. Ryan and Dr. Adam, I haven't had any of the pain or spasms that I had before. I continue to go here for routine maintenance and would HIGHLY recommend this practice. It's definitely progressive in terms of their thinking and applications!

I was up in Napa doing some wine tasting recently and decided to buy a case. I'm not sure what happened but my back but it went into major spasms and my forearms were pretty sore. I was referred to Dr. Lazarus by someone at the winery who said "he's the best in the area". I called the office and they were able to squeeze me in due to a cancellation. Dr. Lazurus performed a thorough exam after which he diagnosed my with a muscle spasm of my low back and a muscle strain on my forearms. Dr. Lazurus worked on my low back, gave me an adjustment and did some muscle stripping on my forearms, my pain level went down about 50%.
I did a follow-up visit the next day and again my pain level improved significantly. Since I don't live in the area, Dr. Lazarus offered to refer me to a good practitioner in my area for follow-up care and his office called me a couple of days later just to make sure I was doing fine. I was very impressed and was able to finish my wine tasting tour! I would definitely recommend Dr. Lazarus to anyone seeking spine care or for sports injuries.

I have been seeing Dr. Lazarus for 9 months now and he has helped improved my health tremendously. I am weary of chiropractors and have had bad experiences in the past, but Dr. Lazarus is completely different. He actually cares about the health of his patients and isn't trying to milk money out of us. I came to him in January with a very hurt hip flexor that no one seemed to be able to help me with.
Within 3 sessions he had fixed it and I was able to work out (pain free). I was hooked! I have been going to him ever since and if something comes up he gets me in right away. Otherwise, he only has me come in once a month. He has also coached me on weight loss and eating healthy and I have lost 25 pounds. I can't say enough good things about him. Also, love this staff. They are organized, friendly, and always willing to work with you to re-schedule. I have recommended him to so many people and he has helped every single one.

I have been to 3 Chiropractors in the valley since I realized the importance of adjustments. They were all good experiences but it seemed like I was just getting an adjustment every other week and not seeing significant results. Since my wife and I have been going (about 3 months) to Dr. Lazarus our quality of life has increased immensely! Dr. Lazarus not only adjusts the spine and extremities, he is a certified practitioner of Graston Technique.
The Graston Technique has healed an injury that my wife sustained in a car accident almost 10 years ago. We have been to every professional imaginable and not a single person could help. By the 2nd Graston appointment my wife and I had seen a significant increase in range of motion and virtually no pain. My wife could not work a full day of work without extreme pain, now she can work and Crossfit train with little to no discomfort.
I believe Dr. Lazarus's best professional quality (atleast what helped me the most) is his knowledge of nutrition. I struggled with a stomach ache my whole life. I would eat a meal and my stomach would turn upside down. I went to other allergy "professionals" and they didn't know a da#m thing! They made me believe I was the problem. Dr. Lazarus educated me on the Paleo Diet.
I have since then lost about ten pounds and do not have any stomach issues. Imagine living your whole life with stomach pain, simply changing what you eat and the pain goes away along with the weight. It's pretty amazing! Because of Dr. Lazarus's (and his wonderful staff) knowledge and sincere passion for spreading WELLNESS to others, my life is so much better. In a nutshell, if you go to Dr. Lazarus's, you will have a better quality of life.
