"…I surely trust Sylvia’s judgement. And her breadth of skills with chiropractic, cranial-sacral, metaphysical, and nutritional counseling as well. They cover all the basis….I am grateful to Sylvia for her skills and focus, and for validating what I had sensed was causing dis-ease in my body and in my life….I also believe that Sylvia brings the whole of herself to every appointment, too….I am grateful to her as a model for the process of non-attachment…." —E.A., Santa Cruz
"Sylvia is the best in this county hands down. Having been in the trade of health and healing for over 25+years I'm picky. Having been to a bajillion chiropractors, physical therapists, body workers, etc.. From Marin to Santa Cruz and everything in between, she is one of the best.
"Sylvia is authentic, intuitive, present, and honest. Knows her stuff and has a wealth of knowledge. If she can't help you she will know someone who can. Check her out!" —J.A., Pacifica (from Yelp! review)
"Sylvia truly is a miracle worker. I had a 50 minute session with her today and, yet again, she has completely healed the pain in my pelvis that I have been living with for the past several months.
She has provided relief and healing to many in my family and group of friends on more than just a physical level. I couldnt be more grateful for her presence in our community. She treats it all. I would recommend her to anyone for any and all ailments, certainly not just musculoskeletal." —T.T., Los Gatos (from Yelp! review)
"Well, Sylvia is amazing!!! She knew things about me that no one knew BUT me! Howwwwww??!?
Besides the above, she gave my neck and back quite the tune-up! No "cracking" involved!!!!
Will be back?? Absolutely!!!" —Jasmyn P., Santa Cruz (from Yelp! Review)
"Words cannot describe the level of relief, comfort, relaxation and satisfaction I get every time I come here. If I could afford to do it monthly I would. Do yourself a favor and give Dr. Skefich a try. Nothing short of amazing." —Sally A., Santa Cruz (from Yelp! Review)
"I had been experiencing intense pain for a week in my hips and low back to the point that walking and daily living was challenging. I am so grateful to Dr. Skefich for her quick response to my messages (on a Sunday!) and getting me an appointment with her the following morning. I am happy to announce that my pain is gone after just one visit, pretty amazing! I truly am in awe, thank you so much for your work and dedication to the community." —Renee R., Santa Cruz (from Yelp! Review)
"Absolutely amazing the results of my sessions with Sylvia. I'm a former college athlete with lots of ailments that are surfacing now. Not to mention car accident, motorcycle, just life. I tell her what hurts and she takes care of it. Without hard manipulation amazing…" —Don H., San Francisco (from Yelp! Review)
"The best chiropractor ever. I have been seeing Sylvia Skefich for at least 7-8 years. I love Sylvia's intuitive cranio sacral chiropractic treatments as I only need to come in once a month as the treatment lasts. I am not pressured into coming 2-3 times a week for X weeks. She is grounded in her desire to help you achieve better health. Her knowledge is vast, and she will happily share information but does not push you to buy products. A great chiropractor and once you have seen the amazing work done you will never go back to another chiropractor." —Diane S., Santa Cruz (from Yelp! Review)
"I want to give the highest recommendation to Sylvia and her kind cranial sacral therapist Jody! I am an athletic trainer sports medicine therapist and Pilates rehabilitation therapist. I know quality care! Last week I came in with an excruciating upper thoracic rib head out, I was in agony .. I could barely function and I needed to my work depends upon it. They were so caring and kind they got me in twice in one day !! They took the pain away within one day! They are true healers!
Thank you so very much !" —Stephanie Berard, Capitola (from Yelp! review)
