Swink Chiropractic - Robert R Swink Chiropractic offers natural relief of chronic pain, headaches, disc disorders and personal injury cases. Chiropractors help newborns, infants, teenagers, adults and seniors. It's no secret that leafy vegetables are packed full of nutrients that help keep our bodies well. Getting outside and into the fresh air for a period of time every day is something we should all strive to do. I agree to refrain from including any personally identifiable information or protected health information in the comment field.

Our approach is simple. We believe that health is amongst our most valuable possessions. And while we generally meet people after they've lost their health, our commitment is two-fold. Relief care is care necessary to get rid of your symptoms or pain, but not the cause of it. It is the same as drying a floor that was getting wet from a leak, but not fixing the leak.
I have two maternal uncles that are chiropractors in Colorado who sparked my interest in the chiropractic profession. For most of my high school days, I suffered from chronic low back pain, especially during sports. I remember how I felt after my first adjustment, I immediately had less pain and it was easier to move.
Here I stand at the Ritz Carlton resort (formerly Bacara) in Goleta with my beautiful wife Jessica and our cute dog-child Oliver. I was born and raised in this great town of ours and grew up in a chiropractic lifestyle. My dad, Dr. Robert Swink, is a chiropractor, and my mom is our office manager. To this day, we practice harmoniously in the same family-owned and operated clinic.
Many types of chronic pain have been identified, however many with chronic pain do not have a clinical diagnosis from their doctor. Scar tissue is frequently the culprit in this un-diagnosed pain. Repetitive motion, injury and surgery can result in the formation of scar tissue. Since there are no blood vessels that nourish this fibrotic tissue, it dies, becoming rigid and inflexible, impinging nerves and impairing normal movement.

I was appreciative to the help as I had fallen and my spine needed a serious adjustment. Mr Swink was fine. I was more concerned by their lack of concern and ethical code to wearing a mask while interacting with the public. The front desk person explained because they were homeopathic they didn't really do that anyways (?) She proceeded to tell me her thoughts about protesters who didn't wear them and they were the ones who deserved to be throw in jail.

She noted my blatant disgust and retracted her statement. Concerning to me as she would have been completely comfortable saying that to anyone else who walked through the doors that didn't look at her with distaste. Thank you for the assistance to my spine, I do no plan to return.

Amazing chiropractor, I was a little skeptical about chiropractors but after just one visit and the immediate relief I've felt, I have not stopped going. He'll fix any misalignment you have as well as any allergy as well. The staff are very understanding and accommodating. I recommend everyone to go and give this cute family owned business a try and see the results for yourself. You won't be disappointed.

I just want to share how amazing Dr. Swink is! It's been about 2 months now since I came back after 12 years since last I saw him. I came in due to a bad back and he has done such an amazing job on since the beginning of the treatment. Today I was still pretty tense and wasn't able to touch my toes. Well in two months I am now able to touch my shins but still some stress getting to that point. Dr. Swink did a new method on me that was really bazaar at first but at the end very effective.

He performed and emotional stress test by reading my body. Like really talking to my body where my heavy emotions are causing me pain. Well after that I all of sudden can now bend over almost touch my toes which I haven't been able to do in 7 months. I was so relieved and feel so much better and really energized after he performed this on me. Just wanted to say thank you and share this experience with anyone who's looking for a great chiropractor! Thank you very much for all you have done. Highly recommended to anyone who is looking for someone who knows what they are doing!. Thank you Joel Ramirez

I had a constant lower back pain, along with some shoulder pain. My first visit Dr. Swink was able to pinpoint the origin of my shoulder pain. I was very much impressed with my first visit and I highly recommend coming to Dr. Swink for any pain that you think should be checked out. Overall, Swink Chiropractic is great to their patients in every aspect.

I've been adjusted by Dr. Swink for over 10 years now, but what I'm really impressed by is how he works with my kids, and has since they were babies. My youngest had recurring ear infections when he started daycare (from 6-9 months). He's now almost 3 and hasn't had an ear infection since Dr. Swink adjusted him.

The Swinks are a great family-operated practice (including their little 4-legged family member). Both the Dad and son are nice people to work/interact with, but I saw Robert Swink the entire 5 months I was getting treated. They're very lax people and they work well with you in terms of scheduling and financially. There was just one glitch in my experience with them where there was a miscommunication or something with scheduling an appointment, but when I came in for a supposed appointment they were closed and I was not at all notified which was sort've an inconvenience for me, but things happen beyond our control; we straightened it out later.

My first visit with them was a very productive one and I was amazed at how much Dr. Robert did with me in the hour-ish I was with him. He gave me a mini lecture on what and why the benefits of getting chiropractor treatments are and then he did an x-ray and adjusted me all in one visit for the price of the co-pay I had! It was awesome and I felt very light and airy after that first adjustment. I believe that adjustments are very necessary and such a natural way of healing and restoring the body internally! I would recommend Swink chiropractic!

I would highly recommend Dr. Swink, I was in pain due to a car accident and couldn't wait two weeks for. Physical Therapy. I made that call and was seen the same day. He thoroughly expanded what was going on with my body. So I was seen the same day I called, was greeted with his lovely sweet receptionist, X-ray's taken and an adjustment all in my first visit.

He is awesome and amazing. I'm so glad I made that call it was the best decision I made to go to Swink Chiropractic. He's a doctor who really cares. Thank you so much Dr. Swink!

I have been seeing Dr. Swink for about 3 years. I have tried many other Chiropractors in the area and Dr. Swink is the only one that has been able to help me with my back issues. He is very knowledgeable of the most up to date techniques and equipment, knows a lot about supplements and is also a very caring doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Swink.

I highly recommend Dr. Swink for your chiropractic needs. Always pleasant, always efficient, most of all he will take excellent care of you! I recently suffered a spinal injury due to a car accident. He relieved my pain and straightened me out. I am very grateful for the excellent care.
