    Dr. Maher is most dedicated, skilled and knowledgeable Doctor of Chiropractor I know. His knowledge of nutrition and holistic healing is second to none. I have the background to make those statements with authority as I worked with and trained thousands of Chiropractors over the past four decades. I recommend him without reservation.

  •  Aiane Karla  reviewed Valley Center Chiropractor

    I started going to Dr. John in the early part of 2021. During one of my chiropractic appointments in March (at the peak of pollen season), I asked him a few allergy-related questions. He answered my questions and suggested we set up an appointment. Our eye-opening conversation was insightful, to say the least! That day, I learned there was hope for me and that it’s possible for me to be relieved of my symptoms and be desensitized to my allergens. Since I wouldn’t be able to visit for a few weeks, Dr. John gave me herbal and homeopathic tablets to take and instructions on their proper use and dosage... Over the next couple of weeks,..3/10 and I was glad to finally be gardening without having to sneeze, blow my nose, or wear goggles to keep my eyes from getting itchy. Taking my tablets became a regular part of my daily routine, that within two weeks, I started thinking, “Wow! I’m so glad allergy season is over. I don’t have a single allergy symptom anymore! This is great!” Mustard plants that have plagued me for years were even more spread out than they were a few weeks back. It was definitely still pollen season! I’m so glad I took the time to ask my allergy-related questions when I did because I’m finally able to enjoy my favorite season without going through countless boxes of tissues.

    I am in Pain Daily. Constantly. Today I had my first visit. I was hesitant because I didn't know if it would hurt me worse. I can say that I walked in w pain and walked out without pain . I am anxious to go back next week. Thank you so much for your patience and thank you for being the way you are. You helped me today. I can honestly say colors look more vibrant. maybe now that it doesn't hurt so bad I can smell the roses 2nd Visit and I am planning on going twice a week for as long as I need to. A few adjustments and my entire quality of life has changed. I was in so much pain and I was in tears this morning because I was so happy that I wasn't in pain. I COULDNT BELIEVE IT. I feel like there's nothing in the world that could bring me to the place I am today. A few weeks ago was miserable, so much pain I couldn't think straight. I didn't think it would ever go away. I am excited to go into the next CHAPTER seeing life w new eyes. AND MY NEW NECK AND HIPS THAT DONT ACHE. THANK YOU DR JOHN.

    I have been seeing Dr. John since 1984. I had suffered a major heat stroke. I was not getting my strength back over several weeks. The MDs didn’t seem to know what to do. I was referred to Dr. John where he diagnosed the reason why I had the heat stroke and why I was not getting any better. Within the first couple of weeks I was already seeing a major improvement. Since then Dr. John has been there for me, my friends and family time after time. Thank you Dr. John! Valley Center, CA FEB 5, 2021


  • Shawneen Burdick reviewed Valley Center Chiropractic & Holistic Care

    Dr. John is a very intuitive healer with years of experience and extraordinary knowledge. My family and I have been treated by Dr. John for many years for everything from large injuries to hot flashes ( my hot flashes are totally gone by the way). He will only prescribe supplements if your body needs them, and at reasonable prices. He is a direct communicator and gets to the point and will ask you to do the same...hehe. We consider Dr. John our primary doctor and would recommend him to everyone! Garden of Eden Petting Zoo, Valley Center, CA Dec. 5 2020


  •  Amber Schmidt  reviewed Valley Center Chiropractic & Holistic Care

    Dr. John is my go-to in town for chiropractic and holistic wellness needs. He really knows how to find the exact spot and get to the root of the issue, quickly. I’ve seen him for a range of issues and all have been remedied, including some old and persistent injuries. He has a wealth of knowledge and is very kind as well. Highly recommend his services.

    Well worth the drive
    Dr. John is the best Holistic doctor in North San Diego county. If you don't live in Valley Center, it is worth the drive. His adjustments have been helpful for my lower back pain helping me to avoid the recommended surgery. What about price? He is very reasonable when compared with others! Pick up the phone... he himself answers!

    No longer need to see pain specialist!
    Happy New Year Dr. John! Thank you for everything you've done for me! I look forward to 2020 with your help! I just want to let everyone know how great you are. I've been seeing Dr. John for over six months. Before seeing him I suffered from degenerative disc disease and Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction for many years which required surgery and yearly pain injections and RFA's to my lower back. Within the first visit, Dr. John diagnosed my issues and determined I had a pelvic tilt causing the majority of my SI Joint pain which he immediately corrected. With on going therapy, I no longer see a pain specialist. Dr. John is also managing my chronic migraines which I never thought could be managed. I owe everything to Dr. John for my overall improved health. He's amazing!!!

    Great Place to Go
    Dr. John is very professional and extremely knowledgeable. My family and I have come to him with various issues and he has always had an answer for the ailment du jour. I love it that it gives me stretches to work on to help me get through the ailment and try to prevent future issues. It's great to have a place to go that you can trust.

    Saved my life!
    Dr. John has given me back my life! Most of my life I have experienced chronic lower back pain, sciatic and other aches related to scoliosis. Since 3 years ago when I started working as a teacher, these pains became worst every day to the point where I found myself physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted. The quality of my life was not good and getting up every morning was becoming a real challenge. All these was already affecting my thinking; I was seeing myself not being able to walk or do anything in a few year. Thankfully I found Dr. Maher in Kaiser's directory. It called my attention that he had an holistic practice and decided to try. From the very first visit in mid August my pain decreased considerably. After another few visits and much sooner than I expected I was having pain-free days and I remember how hope for life came back! I was able to think in a positive future again. It is just October and I have been waking up every morning looking forward to go to work, to continue with my studies, to working in the yard. Pain is no longer a distraction, is no longer an "energy leak." I feel stronger physically and free and lighter mentally and emotionally. Deep gratitude is what I feel towards Dr. John. As I said before, he has helped me to recover my life, to live peacefully and look into the future with joy and hope.

    Dr John Maher is very knowledgeable and helpful for a wide variety or health issues. He has helped my family with a bruised clavicle, back pain, ankle problems, stomach issues, as well as mental health issues. He takes the time to explain the issues and remedies.

    Sciatica gone…feel 10 years younger, at least!
    I went to see Dr. John after being prescribed prednisone and ibuprofen by my health providers and getting no relief or clear direction how to deal with it. I'd been in increasing pain from sciatic nerve inflammation, waking up 2-3 times a night from the pain, and barely able to drive as pain was the worst when driving. 3 days later my pain was half gone, and though still experiencing some discomfort I had a vitality and attitude boost that was indescribable. He recommended two additional supplements to what I already was taking and did some percussive work on my back. He mentioned that my thyroid wasn’t functioning as it should. 10 days after that my sciatic pain is completely gone. That was over 2 weeks ago. So, all I can say is that I am now a grateful and very impressed client of his. I'm amazed at what he understands about our bodies. He's the best I've ever been to. I’m 71yrs old and now feel 10 yrs younger...at least!

    Full Holistic Care
    Being new to the community it was important to me to find a good Chiropractor. I was lucky enough to find Dr. John, he more than just a Chiropractor he provides full holistic care. He has taken care of my seasonal allergies, my hormones and even taken care of some parasites that I picked up in Mexico. I highly recommend Dr. John!!

    I recommend HIGHLY Dr. John as so many of his patients call him. His technique is healing and gentle Allowing your own body to heal itself after an adjustment. Dr. John stands alone in Chiropractic care, rising far above all others.

    Dr John—A five star plus Doctor
    Dr. John Is so much more than the typical Chiropractor! He is extremely knowledgeable on many levels. He isn’t afraid to admit that he isn’t the right person for a problem! He sent my Grandson to a Dentist who eventually helped him with a jaw problem. Try him—You”ll like Dr. John!

    I reccommend Dr. John!
    As a retired Chiropractor and Certified Applied Kinesiologist, I am very particular about who I let adjust my spine and who I choose to listen to when it comes to nutritional advice. Dr. John is one of the few Chiropractors I trust. His skill, his knowledge and expertise are exceptional. He meets my needs for non-force adjustments as well as delivering traditional Chiropractic adjustments to those with that preference. Finding a good chiropractor can be a challenge. In my opinion, Dr. John is one of the best.

    Hip Pain Gone
    Dr. John took care of my hip pain in just a few visits. I went in thinking there was something wrong with my hip. He quickly diagnosed me with a subluxation of one of my vertebrae. He worked on correcting that problem and also taught me the correct stretches to perform in order to avoid this problem in the future. Haven't had a problem since.

    He keeps me Health
    Dr John has been my doctor since 2006. I am a healthy active 76 year old thanks to him. When I was 12 I had a spinal fusion, so I have had back issues all my life. Dr. John knows just how to keep me up and fit. He is a miracle worker. I totally trust his practices and judgement of what I need. I highly recommend him to others.

    Healing
    Dr. John has treated me for injuries (car accident, sports injuries) multiple times, and restored me to health. He's identified allergies, and avoiding the triggers has improved my health. If I have something wrong with my body that seemingly can't be figured out, he has repeatedly been able to quickly diagnose it and treat it with manipulations or supplements, and restore me back to being my best. There's no professional I've ever gone to, in any field, that I trust more than him. Dr. John has my highest recommendation.

    Knowledgeable, gentle, and effective!
    Dr. John is a terrific chiropractor. I recently moved to this area, and I am so happy that I found him! He has a similar approach as my former doctor, in that he does a non-force approach with muscle testing, meridian points, and specific nutrition. He also does the traditional type of adjustment, ("cracking") if that's what's needed, but in a very gentle and proficient way. When I first went in, I'd had a right hip problem for months, and it was interfering with my exercise and walking. Dr. John did an adjustment for an "anterior femur head", and the problem was solved - I was so happy! He has 40 years of experience working as a chiropractor, and he really knows his stuff. Take it from me - I'm a retired chiropractor! I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. John Maher since 1996

I have been a patient of Dr. Maher since 1996 and because of his coaching, was able to maintain my health in ways that minimized doctor visits. I have never had surgery or disease. This also applies to my children. I cannot say enough positive things about his experience, knowledge and ethics related to how he has chosen to coach people on healing themselves, particularly in a world where keeping you sick is Big Business. Dr. Maher, and health professionals such as he, have made an unselfish choice to help heal rather than make you dependent upon them for life. His knowledge of whole body health is researched and proven. I have not found a medical professional to match.
