Core Wellness Functional Medicine - Berkeley, California

Incredible Care, Incredible coaching! As an aging athlete, I've had trouble adapting my nutrition and recovery to support my athletic goals. Over the last few years, I had started to notice my energy dissipating quickly over the course of mountain bike rides that I had tackled much easily in earlier years, and just thought "this is what getting old is".

Dr. Finnegan and her team gave me hope by suggesting I just needed to adjust my eating and recovery habits to regain my form -- they analyzed my nutritional deficiencies, and prescribed adjustments to the macro nutrients of my diet, along with post ride recovery support so that I would have the vitality to conquer the long rides that bring me such joy. I'm happy to say I've regained much of what I thought I'd lost with their help. Thank you!

Dr. Finnegan is one of the best, most thoughtful Functional Medicine practitioners I have ever worked with. She is very thorough in her examination procedure and in providing a specific, accurate diagnosis. She takes her time to give the care that you need!

Thanks Dr. Finnegan!

Dr. Finnigan is a kind, thorough, encouraging, and strategic practitioner. She helped me a lifelong gluten intolerance and get my digestion, which was crippling for several months, back under control. I also was able to stabilize my mood and my weight since working with her team—which has been a huge an welcome change for me. I recommend her for anyone struggling with digestion/GI tract issues that Western doctors are just not equipped to help you with. I got real results working with Dr. Finnigan.

Dr. Finnegan does a great job of carefully checking to determine what areas are tight or out of a Alignment, and the follows through with effective and focused adjustments. She also does a good job of getting to know you and making you feel relaxed, which also contributes to effective treatment. I would recommend her to anyone who is active and wants to maintain a healthy spine

Now I know why Dr. Finnegan is voted the best chiropractor in Oakland every year!

I tend to avoid chiropractic because I don't want to have to go all of the time. Dr. Finnegan's sessions are quick and gentle, and she included some bodywork and cranial sacral work.

She gave me sound advice to improve my posture, a home workout and stretching plan, and recommended supplements. And I always felt supported to listen to my body and trust myself on when to come in for follow-up appointments.

Dr. Finnegan is a truly a gifted Chiropractor! I have been visiting her regularly for adjustments both in my back and jaw. She is intuitive and knows exactly what areas to target. Each time I have visited her, I felt tremendous results. My pain subsided both in my back and jaw and I felt a general sense of balance within my body and in the way I carried my posture. It's a great feeling knowing that I have her on my wellness team.

Dr. Finnegan at Core Wellness Chiropractic, you really don't need to shop further if you're looking for help with your back !!!

I've had lower back issues for years, and Carolyn
has been instrumental in helping me understand why I've repeatedly injured the same section of my back. She's not just about treating what's going on for you when things have gone wrong, she genuinely wants to help you *not* get hurt in the first place. I highly recommend her !

Dr. Finnegan and the team at Core Wellness provided me with great hope. She recommended specific targeted tests that have lead to tangible steps towards my medical health and well-being. Dr. Finnegan is patient and takes her time explaining the various tests, results, and provides a plan of action.
