Mindy Mar, DC, DACBSP

Dr. Mindy Mar is by far the best! I’ve been going to her for a few years and always look forward to my visits. From Chiro adjustments to endermologie to health concerns in general, Dr. Mar always has advice that goes far and beyond my expectations. She has also seen all 3 of my children for various reasons and has helped us with solutions every time. I would highly recommend her over and over again!

I’ve been going to Dr Mindy Mar for my endermolgie treatments for almost a year now. She has been amazing !!! Her treatments have helped so much with reducing the appearance of cellulite on the back of my legs. I’m hooked and you’ll be as well. If your looking to have firmer/​smoother looking skin you have to come see her.

I first became a patient of San Diego Center for Health 7 years ago during my first season as an NFL cheerleader. Dr. Mar & Dr. Llantada played a vital role in keeping my body healthy & in overcoming injuries for three seasons. After «retiring» from cheerleading, I have continued to see Dr. Mar in order to help counteract the negative effects of sitting at a desk all day.
There are many choices out there for chiropractic care, but not all are equal. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who is knowledgeable, personable & professional, I highly recommend Dr. Mar!

Dr. Mindy Mar is very knowledgeable in sports medicine, nutrition plus chiropractic arts. I look forward to my appointments with her and feel super rejuvenated when I leave. She uses different techniques and caters them to your needs. If you are looking for Chiropractor I highly recommend Dr. Mar.

Dr. Mar gave me excellent therapy in the year long treatment of my adhesive capsulitis/​frozen shoulder. Along with recommended home exercises, the arm is functioning normal again. Dr. Mar is caring & personable & I credit her for my recovery. One more kudo; she follows your progress via email. Never had any medical professional give such personal correspondence. She gets an A+ in my book, along with the 5 stars!

5 star service! Always informative, on time and great results. I’ve been seeing Dr. Mar for a few years and wouldn’t consider going anywhere else!

Professionals, who know what they are doing and do it well. Highly recommend if you need a chiropractor!

Dr. Mar is the epitome of what you want and need in a chiropractor. Because of work and working out, I’ve needed some rehab, and continue with chiropractic maintenance. I’ve been her patient for years and I give my highest recommendation!

I have been going to Dr. Mar for a little over 3 years now and couldn’t be happier! She always is professional and really knows what she is doing. She goes above and beyond to explain exercises or tips to stretch and strengthen certain body parts. she is very reasonable in her prices. I also do endermologie with her and love it! I definitely recommend her to everyone.

Dr Mar is my hero for more reasons than one. I’m a 36 year old who has a desk job, my back is constantly in some kind of discomfort. For exercise I swim and that helps my back tremendously however, after taking a nasty spill in the shower I finally went to see a Chiro and was recommended to Dr. Mar.
Because I had never been to the chiro before she very carefully explained what she was going to do so that there was no surprises. She didn’t yank or pull me in any uncomfortable way. She then did a couple of other treatments with me and told me exactly how I would feel the next day. Sure enough the next day I felt a little sore but by day 3 I was 100% better and have felt fantastic since!
I highly recommend Dr. Mar! I’ll definitely be back for an adjustment/​maintenance more often.

This Unilocal review is long overdue. And speaking of long, I could write pages about the benefits I have received from San Diego Center for Health, and particularly Dr. Mar; however, I will attempt to keep this concise. By posting this review, I hope that both believers and skeptics of chiropractic care will seek out San Diego Center for Health for their chiropractic needs.
The punchline is that in May 2013 I hurt my back and Dr. Mar was the only person who was able to significantly assist in my long road to recovery and many, many months later I continue to trust her expertise and care.
If you want the longer version, here it is — After my injury I visited my primary care physician, took prescription drugs, went to weeks of physical therapy, received numerous massages, routinely pursued acupuncture, acupressure and cupping and abandoned the gym except for occasional yoga. However, none of these methods provided long term relief from my pain and mobility issues. I was in pain every day and couldn’t perform simple tasks like blow drying my hair or making my bed. Furthermore, my daily discomfort made me grouchy and I’m pretty sure my friends started to avoid me a little. While I was pursuing the aforementioned forms of treatment and paying tons of money in co-​pays, a few people did suggest chiropractic care to me; however, I was a bit skeptical of such treatment and I didn’t know of a DC that I trusted. Finally, I met Dr. Mar and it literally changed my life. I know that sounds cliché but after being in pain every day, it was amazing to progress to sporadic pain and eventually no pain. By helping my body physically feel better, I was in better spirits and had a brighter outlook on life.
Dr. Mar is highly credentialed and super knowledgeable. Although she could talk circles around you with her fancy medical terminology, she is great about using words and descriptions that the common person can understand.
I also fully appreciate that Dr. Mar respects her patients’ personal space and honors their body. For example, instead of just adjusting you and cracking bones in your body, she’ll tell you what she recommends, explains the adjustment and what to expect and then asks if you are comfortable with the recommended adjustment.
I also like that Dr. Mar is sports oriented and understands sports injuries and how to get a patient feeling better so they can get back to the activities they love. We have spoken at length about the types of activities I enjoy and what modifications I should consider during my recovery.
Also, I have been totally impressed with Dr. Mar’s follow-​through. For example, when I first started seeing her, she would routinely send me an email and ask how I did post adjustment and how my trip to ___(fill in the blank)___ was. I think she is the only doctor I’ve seen who has taken time to follow up post treatment, sometimes even on weekends.
In the spirit of honesty and sincerity I have to note that not everyone believes in chiropractic care. Remember that Friends episode when they were poking fun of chiropractors? In fact, I’ve waffled on the credibility of chiropractors myself. What I’ve ultimately decided is that it takes a lot of work to find a good chiropractor but once you do, it can make a world of difference. I hope this review helps others improve their quality of life just as I have done through care from Dr. Mar.

Dr Mar is the SHIT! She takes all my pains away from my intense gym sessions. I am training for a fitness competition and her endermologie treatments are a life saver. I am no longer sore and can push my body the next day in the gym even harder than the day before. She is so knowledgeable about the human body.

If you had taken as much interest in me when I was in your office this would never have become a problem. Instead you waited until a negative review showed up, Shame on you. Just admit your mistake.

I hurt my back deadlifting and i couldn’t stand, sleep, or sit. I was in so much pain.
Dr. Mar came highly recommended by a coworker who saw me standing up during a 3 hour meeting in agonizing pain. The San Diego Center for Health took me in the same day I called. Making that call was one of the best decisions I could have made.
She was sympathetic, understanding and immediately put me on a plan to fix my issues. Dr. Mar explains everything she is doing in extreme detail. This way you not only know what is going to happen, but you also know how it will help.
They are in a convenient location and I have yet to have an issue with they taking me on time.
i would recommend this place to my closest family or friends.

SDCH is a true gem! I have been going to Rumel for over 7 years now. He has saved me in times of need. I have gone to him when when I can’t walk or move and he always fixes me! His program is unlike other because he actually relieves pain. Most chiro’s are only interested in your money, not these guys though. They are the real deal. The a actually care.
Here’s the breakdown…
Pro’s:
Professional team
Very educated in their practice
Caring staff
Convenient location
Low cost out of pocket fee’s if no insurance
They really try and work with you.
Cons:
Parking can be rough on a busy day.
It can be hard to get an appt because they are a very successful practice. However, if you are hurt they make it work.

I have to say, I’ve been to many chiropractic centers in San Diego and I think the San Diego Center for Health is one of the best in town! Dr. Mar is especially great! She can pin point the problem and administer the right treatment (endermologie, graston, ultra sound and kinesio tape to name a few!) She’s extremely knowledgeable and can explain which technique she’s using and why. I’ve come to count on Mindy not only when I have a problem, but for regular body maintenance as well.
The office atmosphere is very clean and relaxing. They also run «on time», which is very important to me and is hard to find. I definitely wouldn’t go anywhere else!

San Diego Center for Health is truly a rare gem. This convenient location is right next to FIT Athletic Club and direclty across from Petco Park.
I needed some major TLC after being a gymnast for 10 years growing up then involved in NCAA Div II softball; and now still an active runner with a passion for rigorous workouts and daily/​weekly activity.
I was unable to walk when I first met Dr. Mar due to chronic injuries not just one simple acute injury. The combination of Dr. Mar’s Endermologie, adjustments and specific exercises (custom for my body) supported my growth physically and emotionally. The Endermologie machine works like a vacuum and feels like a full body massage on my upper/​lower back, glutes, hamstrings, quads, etc and helps with cellulite as well — added BONUS!
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Mar for the last year and I have made extraordinary strides in my performance. Much thanks goes out to her and her counterpart Dr. Llantada located in Mission Valley. Dr. Llantada has what I call a «human jack hammer gun» type object which works well in specific areas and helps aleviate and break down tight muscles and maybe even scar tissue — I manage to need this for my entire body and it’s by far better than any massage.
Cheers to Health and Fitness,
Courtney

San Diegans are so fortunate to have the skill and expertise of the staff at San Diego Center for Health. Their knowledge of multiple treatment methodologies ensure that all patients recueve personalized care based on their needs. I’m hooked!

I took my newborn daughter to Dr. Kart at the Mission Valley location because her neck was a bit tweaked from her positioning in utero.
He is professional and gentle.
He is not just your snap-​crackle-​pop chiropractor. He uses muscle and energy balancing techniques and even shows you simple things to do at home.
Awesome!
They even offer massage therapy :-)

I went to the San Diego Center for Health downtown location for the first time a month ago and had a wonderful experience. Dr. Mindy Mar is amazing and she really knows what she is doing. I had rib trama and she did various methods including chiropractic, endermologie, ultrasound and kinesio taping to help my injury. In general it is a slow healing injury but I already feel much better!
She makes you feel really comfortable and I’m looking forward to my next appointment! Highly recommend!
