My experience with Dr. Melissa has been life changing. The talent of adjusting my body out of pain has been very rare for me to find. I am very flexible “water body” and it can be really hard to get me … but she “gets me” every time.

I am very flexible “water body” and it can be really hard to get me … but she “gets me” every time. I feel super safe in her hands and on top of all that, she makes time for me whenever I need her within her schedule. As a very busy massage therapist serving the community to get out of pain and enjoy their body, it really doesn’t work if my body is feeling broke down. Melissa helps me to serve better and that goodness ripples out. Thank you Melissa! Less
Best night of sleep the whole year! My wife and I had the privilege of a quick late day neck adjustment from Dr Melissa. Felt great afterwards and woke up the next day feeling even better, well rested and big smiles. Thanks for realigning our energies.
As a personal trainer who has suffered with my own issues and knows the importance of visiting a chiropractor I recommend Dr. Melissa! She works with a wide range of people and makes good adjustments!
Wonderful, wonderful Chiropractor!!! My vertigo and many other maladies have been solved by adjustments and self-help recommendations. The office is a peaceful, supportive environment. I highly recommend this Chiropractic practice.
Dr Melissa changed my life! I have had a balance/vestibular problem since 2008 and have tried all kinds of treatments - none have worked for me. CFR combined with the other adjustments allow me to have relief from my symptoms in a truly meaningful way. I know CFR seems scary at first and it is *so* worth it! Thank you a million times over for the work you do! ❤️
Dr. Crago is a highly attuned practitioner. I feel safe with her and always learn something about my body when I visit.
My quality of life has gotten better with each visit.
nice place, clean very professional.
Dr. Crago has truly made a difference in my health and well being! She’s so kind and really makes you feel at ease and peace. Very knowledgeable and experienced.

Dr. Melissa treated me while I was traveling. Her office was very accommodating to set me up with an appointment and arrange for Dr. Melissa to review my chiropractic history prior to my arrival in Oakland. Dr. Melissa's adjustment gave me immediate pain relief and helped me enjoy my trip. I highly recommend Life Chiropractic.
From the moment I walk into their office until the moment I leave, I feel respected, welcomed, nurtured, and well taken care of in a genuine way.

From the moment I walk into their office until the moment I leave, I feel respected, welcomed, nurtured, and well taken care of in a genuine way. The women in the front not only remember me every visit, but also my toddler. They take the time to speak Spanish with him or play with him a bit while I get adjusted, which is very helpful for any mom! Dr. Crago is a bone whisperer! She’s strong and gentle, knowledgeable and intuitive. She connects with my needs and explains everything she is doing so that I feel empowered with my body. My neck and back feel less stressed, my wrists no longer throb, migraines are far and few between, I sleep better, my posture is improving, and I have happier, calmer -less irrational- moods. On every visit she checks in with me and sometimes does other adjustments then our plan - based on my needs. She’s adjusted my ears, jaw, and parts of my body I had no idea one could adjust - and wow do they make a big difference!!!! This type of individual care is one-of-a-kind and a life saver! As a full time working teacher and mom, I treasure my weekly visits to see Dr. Crago. They’re like micro-mini retreats. Deep bows of gratitude. Less

This is the first time I've ever tried chiropractic care, and I'm so grateful to have found Dr Melissa. I had been suffering knee pain & inflammation for over a year. I tried physical therapy, icing, taping, cupping, and even a steroid shot, and was becoming increasingly disheartened from not seeing a pathway back to my usual active self. After just 4 sessions with Dr Melissa, the inflammation and pain were gone! I have since ramped back up with my usual outdoor & fitness activities, but I continue to go in for regular sessions to address other misalignments, neck/shoulder tension, and even bunion relief. And I always walk away feeling an amazing sense of ease and flow in my body. Less
I’ve had work related shoulder pain for years and thanks to Life Chiropractic, my pain has almost disappeared! Wonderful staff in a clean and pleasant environment. Overall, an excellent experience. Thanks Life Chiropractic!
My experience with Dr Melissa at Life Chiropractic was amazing. I should have done this 20 years ago.
I’ve been going to Life Chiropractic for about 2 months. I haven’t had a full blown migraine since I started going - I’ve had a couple regular headaches, but not a full blown migraine. This is a big deal for me. So, with that in mind, I’ll keep going and follow Dr. Melissa Crago’s advice.
Melissa is a healer. After seeing her over the past 6 months, my posture has improved and I am no longer experiencing numbness and pain in my lower back and hips. She is an amazing doctor!
I LOVE Dr. Melissa and TEAM! They are welcoming, warm, and truly care about your well-being. I love that I can send a text, and get an appointment with a quick response.

Dr Melissa is a powerful healer with her grounded and gently-firm approach to Chiropractic care. I have been seeing her for nearly four years, at least every other week as part of my care plan for treating the symptoms of Endometriosis. In addition to seeing her myself, I have recommended her to a number of other people who are now seeing Dr. Melissa regularly so the ripple effect of her care for her clients is having a remarkable impact on the healthful lives of many people! I am honored to recommend Dr. Melissa to become part of your care team for both preventative wellness and the treatments of a variety of symptoms you may be experiencing. If you share your situation with Dr. Melissa, not only can she help you with her caring hands of an experienced and gifted professional and healer but she also may have additional healers to recommend to you on your journey. I like to remember that wellness starts with "we" and "I" is the lonely letter in illness. Come visit Dr. Melissa in her relaxing office with the addition of her welcoming office staff to add to the "we" in your wellness! ~ Carly McLane #LoveLife #Oaklandlifechiro #GivingThanks Less
The experience of coming to this chiropractic is awesome, I travel over an hour just to have Dr. Melissa work on my issues, also the videos are practical and the warmth of the receptionist Carol B. makes u feel like it is a in home service
Melissa is amazing! I've been going to her for years. Whenever I have an issue she sorts me out, and she is super holistic in her approach - giving me tips and exercises to keep my spine in shape.

I wasn't really sold on chiropractic work until working with Dr. Melissa. She is so thorough with her initial exam and knowledgable that I feel completely confident with her and started feeling benefits right away (better sleep). Her office always smells really nice and Carol at the front desk is a doll! Always a great experience popping in to see these ladies!
Dr. Melissa is wonderful and everyone in the office is great. I travel from across the Bay to see her & will continue.

I was told that shoulder issues usually take about 6 months to heal. Within 6 visits my shoulders felt so much better. Within two months, the pain was gone. It's a recurring issue and I do have to go in for tune ups, but to be able to turn at night without waking up in pain, to be able to reach for something without stopping mid-way, is fantastic. Carol, at the front desk is wonderful. Melissa is a blessing, and I can honestly say that I have never written that about any practitioner before. Less
Dr. Melissa is fantastic. Her care has been integral in me getting my head back on straight...literally... as well as helping my body stay mobile and aligned. I've also used Dr. Melissa cranial facial release services and I cannot recommend it enough! Feels like I can breathe more oxygen into my brain every time I leave - thanks Doc!

For the past 20 years I have had pain in my back and neck.

I visited chiropractors regularly and usually felt better for about 24 hours afterwards, until the pain came back again. I started seeing Dr Melissa about a month ago and I can say with all honesty, that for the first time in 20 years I am pain free. She focus on the cause, not the symptoms and by make specific adjustments unique to me and my body, my posture has dramatically improved which has taken the strain off my back and neck.

I highly recommend Dr. Melissa. I had concussions and previous head trauma. This affected my breathing, nasal passages and most nights I felt stuffy. I did 4 sessions of (CFR) Cranial facial release. This is a balloon assisted technique. The uncomfortable piece very short 3-4 seconds and I am still feeling the benefit of these sessions several months later. I can breathe better, more clear, and it doesn’t feel like there are any blockages or stuffiness. I sleep more sound as a result of more O2 to the brain. In additional to the ballooning, Dr Melissa gives gentle chiropractic adjustments which feels great. Her office is very zen, relaxing, and comfortable. I recommend going to see Dr. Melissa if you want to feel safe and at ease. Less

She is always willing to answer my questions and talk with me about what she is doing and finding so that I can better understand and support my own health and well being. I always walk out of her office feeling great. My neck feels longer and looser, my shoulders swing freely, my hips and spine are happy. After a recent appointment, still feeling great, I realized how much pain, discomfort and loss of range of movement that I had become habituated to. What a gift this recovered freedom is. Thank you, Dr. Melissa. Less
Dr. Melissa takes care of me whenever I screw myself up. Most recently it was my shoulder. Time before that my arm. Before that it was my ankle. Oh and I think she does backs as well! She always gets me out of pain and back into functionality in one or two visits with her no nonsense competent compassionate approach. She's the best!

Best chiropractor ever!!
Dr. Crago is one of the most intuitive, skilled, and knowledgeable body workers I have ever had the luck to have my aching neck fixed by! And her office staff strikes a perfect balance between super professional and capable and really friendly and genuine. Would recommend again and again!
Dr Melissa's style is assertive and efficient. She checks my spine, cracks me up where she feels dysfunction and adjusts other things as I request them! I'm in and out in 10 minutes and I feel totally tuned up. All the while, she is totally calm, caring and friendly! Love it!
Dr. Melissa is a highly skilled, sensitive, caring, and deeply effective practitioner of chiropractic. She did wonders for long-term issues in my spine and neck, and I recommend her with great confidence.
I went to Dr Crago for neck and back pain and I was amazed at how much better I felt after working with her. I highly recommend her. She is an extremely good and gentle chiropractor and a very caring and warm person. In fact, everyone working in the office is fantastic, warm and very helpful.

I've been late to many appointments and it has never been a problem, they always accommodated my fast changing schedule and I never had to skip an appointment even when I was very late. I would recommend Dr. Crago and this studio to anyone looking to improve their physical abilities, get safe adjustments to reestablish balance or discuss problems with their body in a safe and pleasant environment.

I have been adjusted by Dr. Melissa Crago for about six months now and I'm super pleased with the results. I am a massage therapist by trade and I play capoeira, which is a very intense marital art that puts extreme force, torsion and pressure on the spine. I had taken some hard falls on my sacrum and was trying for months to relieve the subsequent back pain- so I got lots of massages, took Chinese herbs etc... But not until I was adjusted by Dr. Melissa Crago, did I begin to feel better. That evening, I was surprised how pain free I felt. The next morning I was incredulous at the amount of pain-free movement I was able to do. I was hooked. Dr. Melissa has been a god-send. Not only is she an expert chiropractor, she is also a capoerista, so she gets it! She understands what athletes put their bodies through and she knows exactly how to help them maintain a healthy spine/nervous system while continuing their high-intensity life styles. Thanks to Dr. Melissa Crago, I didn't have to give up training the martial art I love so much and I can continue to massage my clients pain-free. I have seen other chiropractors before and since Dr. Crago, those visits just confirm that Dr. Melissa Crago is the best, she uses many muscle and nerve tests to figure out what is going on with me each time I come in. She listens to what is bothering me, where I have discomfort and she thoughtfully and gently addresses the problem with care and strategy. I've encouraged my wife and many of my clients to go see Dr. Crago. Dr. Crago does not take insurance but she is very well worth it and has packages and deals too. Less

What a difference working with Dr. Melissa has made to my general outlook on life and my physical, emotional, and mental well-being. 45 years of sitting hours on end as a court reporter had ruined my posture and my back. I had surgery in 2012 to cure chronic sciatica. While the surgery ended the chronic pain, I was left with painful, debilitating muscle spasms and bouts of Impaired mobility. I went to work as an assistant to Dr. Melissa in March of 2015 and was immediately impressed by her positive mental attitude and her demeanor, the light and love and caring she showed both to her patients and to those who assisted her. I began chiropractic treatment shortly after my employment started; and I have less back pain, less strain on my neck and extremities; and I look forward to the days I go to work, knowing the wonderful patients I meet are getting relief and that I am assisting Dr. Magic Fingers help others feel better. I used to say retirement was the job I'd spent years training for. Now I believe it was just waiting to be a member of the Life Chiropractic team. Less
