Dr. Laurant Colvin of The Joint on Telegraph Road, Berkeley is an exceptional chiropractor who is friendly, has a sense of humor, compassionate, thorough and an effective practitioner. I have had 7 car accidents in 40 years, 6 of them were caused by drivers who either failed to stop at a stop sign, turned left out of a gas station through 3 jam packed lanes and head on with my vehicle on the fourth lane that had a green arrow to turn left toward the intersection, two different drivers over a period of 6 months, hit the rear of my vehicle when I was at a red light and other similar incidences. From each accident, I suffered severe pain from whip lashes and other injuries that each took 6 to 9 months before my headaches and pain in my neck, shoulder and back disappeared. Without chiropractic adjustments for 40 years, I could have easily relied on addictive drugs such as OxyCodone and became a drug addict, ruining my family finances and possibly became homeless for decades.I am very familiar with chiropractic techniques from a patient’s perspective. Of the 6 chiropractors I have been treated under, 4 in Los Angeles, Dr. Colvin and two other sports medicine chiropractors are top notch and most effective practitioner in their field. Among the 6, one was graduated as top of the class 30 years ago from L.A.’s Cleveland Chiropractic College. To help the readers, only Dr. Colvin, Dr. Matthew Cobb of West L.A. , Dr. Gutierrez of Walnut Creek who is not a geographic competitor of Dr. Colvin have been found to be specialized in sports chiropractic and have proven to be exceptionally effective and most helpful to maintain my painless state and a comfortable life.The staff at Dr. Colvin’s The Joint clinic, Vanecer (?) and Chris are all friendly, welcoming and helpful. There are other chiropractors who also served patients at Dr. Colvin’s Clinic that are excellent as well. The cost at The Joint is minimal, students and retirees can easily afford the $89 monthly fee for 4 adjustments a month. Dr. Colvin’s clinic has a tall and airy ceiling, very attractive decor at Carleton and Telegraph. It opens 7 days a week from 10 am to 7 pm with one hour lunch from 2 pm to 3 pm. It is, by far, the most accessible clinic in the entire world. It is a clinic I gravitate to once a week to maintain good circulation and optimal health at age 77.I am totally indebted to practitioners such as Dr. Colvin at The Joint to remain healthy and hopeful, instead of having headaches and other joint pains like many have suffered from injuries but have never experienced the restoration value and the magic of chiropractic.I highly recommend Dr. Laurent Colvin, his other chiropractors and his administrative staff who have helped Berkeley and nearby cities’ residents to remain pain free, healthy and enjoyable lives. Thank you to you all.Here are photos of Dr Laurant Colvin in his knightly outfit on Halloween Day.

I’ve been coming to this location for twice a month maintenance care for many years. Dr. Colvin and his team are the best at handling my chronic issues and anything else that pops up from my stressful job. Always feel so much better when I leave. Highly recommended.

Dr Laurent Colvin in one of the top rated chiropractors I have seen in the past 45 years. My work as a travel nurse has brought me to seek chiropractic care all over the US. Dr Colvin has been successful in adjusting my neck every single time, it is very difficult for others to get into place. Although, I have a Joint right in Santa Rosa I often choose to make the 2 hour round trip to Berkley because the difference in adjustments is so different. Thank you Dr Colvin!

Laurent is the best at cracking necks. His adjustments are calculated and precise. I can always turn my head further in either direction after seeing Laurent.

The best chiro place on earth. Affordable and professional. Lemme share the most magical thing ever: I had dizziness for 2 weeks straight, and almost fell many times when I was walking. I couldn’t hold up my head. Dr. Colvin identified the specific place on my neck that caused my head problem. He did something very different that I had never had in my chiro experience. It was intense. But on the following days, my dizziness started to die down. I’m so thankful that I can finally work again instead of being on my bed all the time. This place is just amazing. I’m moving across the globe, and I’ll miss this place forever. Not exaggerating at all!!!

I have been using The Joint in Berkeley and have had nothing but great experiences. I usually have Dr. Laurent Colvin who is amazing although have been adjusted by a few of the other chiros and they are also fantastic. Love the support staff and the price. I highly recommend!

I love this practice. The doctors (Dr. Laurant Colvin and team) are amazing, so knowledgeable and kind. I’ve had chronic issues due to the nature of my work mainly and have seen many different professionals and get regular massages too (in addition to yoga and acupuncture) but what really helps is getting regular adjustments HERE above all. I have seen several other chiropractors elsewhere over the years and they don’t compare to his knowledge. And it’s affordable!!!!Thank you!!

Dr. Colvin's adjustments are THE BEST! He's extremely thorough and knowledgeable. No wonder there's always a line to see him. Thank you!

Superb! Went in with big doubts, little hope, a migraine and extreme 10 scale pain. I could barely walk the few blocks from my home to The Joint. Short wait, fantastic front desk staff. Dr. Laurent adjusted me and unbelievably the pain, headache was gone. This doctor knows what he is doing. I was a huge sceptic, went to a few Chiropractors in the past, it's been close to 10 years, went here as last minute last resort and am so thank full that I did. I'm an athlete and former personal trainer. I bought the membership. So affordable. Many places will charge 200$ a visit. I went in for the 29$ special and ended up getting the 89$ monthly and can cancel after 2 months if needed. Multiple locations all over California. Drop in, no appointments, so convenient! Highest recommendation!!!

I saw a chiropractor here once, he denied that I have scoliosis, which has been obvious to other chiropractors who have seen me and I told him has been shown on x-rays and an MRI. His "treatment" took no more than 2 minutes and left me in worse shape than I came in. Stay away from this place.

Dr. Colvin is absolutely amazing. I’ve been going to Joint locations for the last 6 years and have had numerous people adjust me. After moving out here I was looking for a new chiropractor and Dr. Colvin is the best. He is very knowledgeable about what needs to be adjusted and will adjust you accordingly. I can’t recommend him enough.
