Feel Better, Move Better,
Get Back to the Life You Enjoy.
Chiropractic Care for Montclair Village, Piedmont, and the Greater Oakland Area
Maybe it's the ache in your lower back that shows up every time you sit down for dinner. Maybe it's the tight shoulder keeping you up at night, or the headache that shows up right on schedule every afternoon. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to live with it.
At Village Chiropractic & Wellness Center, we help you get back to the life you actually want to be living — moving comfortably, staying active, and doing the things you enjoy.
How We Help You Move Again
Dr. Matt Green has been an Oakland chiropractor since 2002, combining gentle adjustments with Active Release Technique (A.R.T.), a hands-on approach that targets muscles, tendons and other soft tissues when tension or restricted movement is contributing to your symptoms.
Do I have to get my neck adjusted?
Not if you don't want to. Dr. Green will never adjust your neck, or anywhere else, without your comfort and your okay first. Plenty of patients get real relief from Active Release Technique alone, and you're always in the driver's seat about what happens during your visit.
What kind of chiropractic technique does Dr. Green use?
Dr. Green uses a gentle, whole body approach, including Gonstead / Diversified / Palmer (manual adjusting), the Activator, and the Drop Table techniques along with the specific soft tissue work so your care can be tailored to what your body needs and what you're comfortable with.
Will my first visit include an adjustment?
Often, yes. Dr. Green starts with a conversation about what's going on with you, then moves into an exam and, when it's appropriate and you're ready, treatment on the very first visit, so you can start feeling the benefit right away.
Do I have to get X-rays before I can be treated?
No. X-rays aren't required for most patients. Dr. Green will let you know if imaging would genuinely help your specific case, but you won't be sent off for X-rays as a routine first step.
What are your rates, and do you accept insurance?
We welcome out of pocket patients and Medicare, and we regularly work with patients recovering from auto accidents, with or without an attorney involved. Call us at 510-200-9000 and we'll walk you through pricing for your specific situation.
