Up 2 Speed Sports Performance and Wellness Center

I have been a patient of Dr. Sanchez for over 6 months now and he is amazing! I started coming here to treat migraines and Dr. Sanchez was able to identify other issues I was having without me even telling him. He really takes the time to listen to his patients in order to help them efficiently. He focuses on overall health and wellness instead of just fixing the problem. Dr. Sanchez is always available for his patients and always goes the extra mile! The office staff is always very friendly and welcoming. I’m so glad to be a patient!

Let me start off by saying Dr. Sanchez is a Godsend! I’ve gone to a plethora of physical therapists since my injury (10 year old injury!) and he’s made me feel so much better within just 3 weeks! I am 27 years old and in my senior year in High school, I dislocated my right patella in my very first preseason game for my school and my knee has never been the same. I was in a walking brace and on crutches for 6 months and the doctors told me by age 25 I’ll never be able to play basketball again and he would bet his house on it and I should just give up ever trying to play (while telling me with an ugly stupid smile on his face like it was good news to hear or something). On top of that, I’ve been drinking since I was 15 years old and developed patellar tendinitis in my left knee (how unlucky can someone be?!) and ever since these major injuries, my mobility, strength, etc. has gone downhill tremendously!
Long story short, 10 years later I’ve gone through countless PT’s and had surgery a year ago but nothing has been even CLOSE to what it used to be. That all changed once I met the great Dr. Sanchez. No matter how much anyone types or writes about him, it doesn’t even come close to how amazing and knowledgeable he is! Literally, he has helped me so much my ONLY REGRET IS I WISH I COULD HAVE MET HIM SOONER.
I can honest to God say that he’s not only in it to help you succeed as far as you’re willing to go, but one of the few Chiropractors/​Physical Therapists/​Trainers/​Doctors, etc. that is genuinely not in it for the money! He teaches you techniques that last for a lifetime where you won’t need to come back to him since he instilled the knowledge to take care of your own self unlike 99.99 999 999% doctors out there who will help you only depending on your bank account.
If I could keep him as my personal PT for the rest of my life then I would lol but overall I KNOW that once I’m done with Dr. Sanchez I will be able to not only get back to finally playing basketball and being active again, but also dunk and feel like a whole new person!
Thanks Dr. Sanchez for everything, you truly are the best and feel fortunate to have met you!

This place is phenomenal. Can’t say enough good things about this place! They are affordable, have convenient hours and awesome staff. Don’t even get me started on Dr. Sanchez. He’s a magician! I came in for a shoulder injury where I had severe shoulder pain and Dr. Sanchez was able to get me back up and running/​lifting in no time. He’s also an expert in taping and taught me a bunch of new techniques for how to tap my shoulder. I always leave feeling great and look forward to coming back. The memberships are an awesome deal if you get into a routine of coming back at least once a week. Your body will thank you! Check them out!

Dr. Sanchez is amazing! Went in for a persistent ankle injury that PT was not helping and in one visit doc was able to get the pain way down and mobility back. I am amazing and totally delighted. Will definitely be coming back and recommending to all my friends.

I don’t write reviews much, and when I do, it’s typically because the place was above and beyond my expectations. First of all, I’m not a great athlete in any sense. I’ve done martial arts and various sports throughout my life but am average at best. My main sport is tennis and I came to Dr. Perry with patella tendinitis in my knee. Through soft tissue work, proper strength training, and education, Dr. Perry was able to get my knee right. My knee has been pain free since coming here.
I took a break from Up2Speed for about 8 months, and I’ve developed shoulder pain and hip tightness. Upon my return, everyone greeted me like I was just there yesterday. It was a great experience. Working with Dr. Perry again for the past 3 weeks, my hip tightness has reduced, and the should pain is barely there. This is a great place to work out and get your body right.

Dr S ROCKS!!!
He saved me from needing neck surgery! He also has been helping me with my PT after a major leg surgery! I have been going to him for years and recommend anyone and everyone to go to him! Deep tissue work might hurt however, it works wonders! Thanks Dr S !!!

For all the readers who are in pain… Dr Sanchez’s office is a must try. I started visiting his office about 6 weeks ago and I have seen dramatic improvement with my head aches, hip joint pain, back ache and over all body flexibility. His diagnosis is very accurate and he designs appropriate exercises and treatment plan that will not only help short term pain but will help in long term for example he teaches exercise that you can do at home on daily basis. He helps with correcting your posture and also explains everything in very layman language. The staff members are very nice and cooperative too.

Update: I’ve been coming here consistenly for over a year and I’m not only pain free, but in the best shape of my life. I would recommend Dr. Sanchez and Up2Speed for anybody looking to get an edge to their fitness, to up their game and move beyond any plateau… and pain free from Doc’s unique approach to tissue work and chiropractic therapy.

Dr. Sanchez is AMAZING! I have been seeing him for years, for everything from knee pain, migraines, weight loss, a broken ankle, a heel spur, and plantar fasciitis. If you want a treatment plan customized for you, and not some cookie-​cutter plan from your regular doctor or chiropractor that just doesn’t really work, or if you just don’t want another prescription for pain killers, go see this guy. He teaches you how to stretch out to avoid injuries and to avoid pain. I have not had a migraine of the same caliber (the kind that knocks you down for days), since he taught me how to stretch out when the pain starts. (The foam roller will be your new best friend). When I broke my ankle, with his treatment and a stretching plan, I was back on the treadmill running WEEKS before my Orthopedic Surgeon thought I would be. With my recent plantar fasciitis treatment plan, I have noticed a significant improvement in just 2 treatments. I have taken off 30lbs and kept it off for years, which in the past, did not happen when I lost weight. Whether you are an aging athlete, or just someone trying to get back into a workout routine, and may have some pain from that, go see Dr. Sanchez. You will be amazed!

The verdict: Dr. Sanchez really knows how to get you where you want to be.
I injured my knee in March of 2014. I tore a ligament in my knee and it wasn’t severe enough that it required surgery. However, I could barely walk and boy was my knee swollen.
I came into Up 2 Speed and described my injury to Dr. Sanchez — he listened and asked me what my end goal was after therapy. I just wanted to be able to bend my knee more than a 90 degree angle.
After only 5 sessions with him, I am back to 90%. I am running without any limp, I can bend my knee and sit on it. It is quite amazing — the moment I was injured I was pretty sure it was going to take me around 6 months to recover fully.
My recovery has been exponentially fast. Thank you so much Dr. Sanchez!!!
**Bonus: I am not only almost recovered from my injury, but I have also learned so much about form/​technique from him. He taught me the CORRECT way to do push-​ups, squats, and so many other basic exercises. Trust me, even if you aren’t looking for physical therapy, this guy will teach you how to make the best use of your exercise time.

Doc Sanchez and Up2 speed staff are great! My son has been working out with Doc twice a week for about a month so far and he has already started seeing results in his strength, agility, and conditioning. My son has learned so much about how to take care of his body as an athlete with proper warm up and stretching techniques. Not to mention the improvement in his self confidence and independence through Doc’s life lessons and mentorship. We are excited to continue in the program and see what’s to come!

Dr Sanchez really helps me and my lacrosse team get in shape, he is very knowledgable and helps with a lot of things! Without him I would be unhealthy, I’ve noticed an immediate improvement in my physical health because of his efforts.

Dr. Sanchez has helped me more than twice! I went there first for a strain in my back and then year later for my left shoulder. He is very knowledgeable, explains how did that ailment happen and how would he be helping you. He explained every procedure that he carries out and how does it benefit you.
I went to Dr. Perry for soft tissue massage few times. I did not know that I had so many knots and how it has been affecting my mobility! He explained every procedure that he carries out and how does it benefit you. He was very patient in helping me understand how can I prevent them by doing simple exercises everyday.

I came to Dr. Perry because of neck, back and knee pain after playing college football in the PAC-​10 (now PAC-​12). I already had a regular chiropractor that I was seeing for over 2 years. However, in the first visit that I met with Dr. Perry, he took the time to evaluate not just my pain and history but my full situation. He truly showed he cared and it wasn’t your normal crack whack adjustment. He took his time and worked on the soft tissue, which I never even knew you could do. Needless to say I cancelled my plan with the other Chiropractor and have been coming to see Dr. Perry since. I would recommend him with 100% faith he will do what is best for his patients.

I absolutely LOVE this place. I started coming here several months ago when I decided I was going to do my first ½ marathon. I had a knee injury that I have attempted to rehab out of, twice, at a different facility. Wanting training, I came here and got much more than that… My knee pain is nearly gone, min of 1/10(pain scale 10 being the worst) on bad days and no pain at all Most of the time. First ½ marathon behind me and another on the way. Special Kudos to Dr. Sanchez who pays attention to the most minute details – making a huge difference in performance outcome. He and Dr. Perry make a GREAT team. Try em out you wont be disappointed!

Dr. Sanchez and Dr. Perry are a great team. Personalities are both two extreme. Dr. Sanchez introduced me to Up 2 Speed, but I ended up training with Dr. Perry due to scheduling issues. Dr. Sanchez is very direct… just be ready to make a commitment because he doesn’t mess around. Dr. Perry’s approach is different. He’s more of a listener and will help you by thoroughly explaining what is happening to your body using medical terminology. I like his approach because I’m an analytical thinker so I need to understand things before proceeding further. He is also very supportive and motivational. So here’s my situation, I came in with left shoulder pain and some back issues. I’m in my late 30’s (so don’t be intimidated when you see all the kids in there working out), I work behind a computer all day long, and I’m a weekend road cyclist who endures metric century and century rides. They determined that I need to fix my posture by strengthening my muscles, deep tissue therapy, and the occasional back cracking. I’m down with it. Overall, I feel stronger, shoulder pain is gone, and I’ve lost two inches on my waist. It has only been two months, I see Dr. Perry once a week, I drive from SJ to Pleasanton (about 30 miles away) and I’m happy with my results so far. Try them out… :)

Words fail to describe my appreciation for Dr. Sanchez and Dr. Perry at Up2Speed. My son plays in the contact division for PJFL. Last year (5^th grade) was his first year. He had never played football before and had no clue as to what he was doing. He was not prepared physically or mentally for the rigors of football training and games. He stuck it out and enjoyed himself but really felt inadequate. Fast forward to April of 12. My son decided he wanted to play again and he and I agreed that he needed to get into shape physically and quite frankly, mentally.
After searching on Unilocal I discovered Up2Speed. After exchanging a few email messages we made an appointment and met with Dr. Sanchez. For a man with a strong sense of self he has a way of making others (especially my oldest) comfortable. My son started training with Dr. Sanchez 3 days a week. There was a lot of work to do and I would say that 80% was mental. Dr. Sanchez and Dr. Perry both worked with my son and helped him work through his mental and physical walls. When it came time for him to spend 5 weeks of the summer with his dad in S. Cal he said he wished he could stay and train instead of going down there! When it came time for my son to participate in evaluations for PJFL he came off the field smiling because he was so pleased with how «easy» it was for him this time around.
As it is now practice season, has been training only once a week, mostly to work on developing good habits towards fitness, keeping him limber, and to work on any issues he’s having on the field. My son has begged to continue to train in the off season and I am happy to oblige. My other sons are asking if they can train with him in the off season as well.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Perry for a little over a month now and he is an absolute miracle worker! I went in with a bad neck pain, which has plagued me off and on for several years now, and left with mobility restored, even after my first visit! Dr. Perry not only fixed my neck, as other chiropractors have done in the past, but immediately identified the root of my problems, which nobody else has taken the time to do in the past. He’s now helping me to fix my bad habits, through strengthening exercises and soft tissue work, which will pay dividends in the future.
Highly recommend these guys — they’re the best!

Where do I start…
I met Dr. Sanchez around 7 years ago when he was working in a tiny office in the San Leandro Ballys.
I had been suffering from terrible pain in both wrists. It was unberable. It made it nearly impossible to work or anything. I had been to the doctor, tried all the different pills, nothing. I tried accupuncture, nothing. I tried a couple of different massage therapists, and got little relief there as well.
I went in to see Dr. Sanchez, and within just a couple visits, I was feeling amazingly better. After more treatment, I have been pain free for the past several years. What he did was amazing, and its what he does every day.
I would not hesitate to reccomend Dr. Sanchez to anyone, either for chiropractic care or his personal training.

I love! love! Dr Sanchez!!! We met him a couple of years ago during youth football. We had always kept in mind to work with our son and we finally started training with him. I don’t know what took us so long but we wish we started this 2 yrs ago. Our son has been working with him for 5wks and we have seen a big difference in his basketball game. He has flat feet and we thought he couldn’t do certain athletic moves because of that. Dr Sanchez proved that wrong. We have been impressed with how much our son has improved in just 5 wks. His basketball coach made a compliment to his recent playing. He doesn’t know what were doing behind the scenes. So that speaks volumes. HIghly recommend him! It’s hard to find trainers for youth that have this much experience working with athletes.
On the Chiropractic side, he has been working with my husband and his many years of neck pain. He really like’s his treatment. So far, it’s really been helping his neck pain. He also does deep tissue work after workouts that help those tightened areas.
For me, I started doing personal training with him. I consider myself pretty athletic but Dr Sanchez showed me muscles I didn’t know I had. Most importantly, I realized I don’t have the core body strength that I thought I had. I like doing exercises that don’t always involve using weights or standard gym equipment. I think this is why I found new untouched muscles. :) LOL
It’s definitely a family affair. If you bring your child to train with him, expect to train with your child. No sitting and watching. This was probably the best part… making it a family affair. :)
