“Finding the right chiropractor doesn't have to be a pain.
Call Dr. Heather Carmona.”
“Hello, my name is Dr. Heather Carmona of Irvine Family & Sports Chiropractic. I know it’s hard to find the right chiropractor — especially when you’re in pain and what you want most is fast relief.
“Take a few moments to explore my website. Learn how I’m different from other chiropractors. Let me show you why I might be the right chiropractor for you.”

Dr. Carmona
“Imagine having your chiropractor on call for you 24 hours a day.”
“Many chiropractors say they offer personalized care, but I go the extra mile for my patients. Click on the links below to see just a few of the things that set me apart.”
“No two patients are alike. Even two patients who are experiencing pain in the same area of their body might not be suffering from exactly the same thing.
“When we first meet, I’ll take the time to do a thorough diagnosis. I’ll look beyond the obvious, to be absolutely sure I’ve identified the problem. You’d be surprised how often I’ve found the source of pain to be something that other doctors didn’t see.
“After a thorough examination, I’ll develop a personalized treatment plan. My focus is to relieve pain quickly, while delivering lasting results and long-term improvement.”
“Why does it always seem that you need your chiropractor after regular office hours? Not to worry—if you’re a patient of mine, I’m accessible to you 24/7 at no extra cost.
“When you have a question, call me on my cell phone or send me an email or text message. I’ll get back to you quickly. You won’t have to wait until your next appointment to get an answer.
“If you’re in severe pain, and your problem can’t wait, give me a call. I’ll meet you at my office as soon as possible. Even if it’s late at night, a weekend or a holiday, I’ll do whatever I can to help you.”
“Each person responds differently to care, so I can’t tell you exactly how long it will take until you feel better. What I can promise you is that I’ll use evidence based treatment to achieve the greatest recovery in the shortest period of time.
“In addition to the chiropractic adjustments I perform in my office, I’ll show you stretches and exercises you can do on your own. If you follow my treatment plan, you’ll feel better as quickly as possible, without the expense or inconvenience of extra office visits.”
Dr. Carmona
“Call for a free consultation.”
“You wouldn't buy a new car without taking a test drive. Shouldn't you be just as careful choosing your chiropractor?
“That's why I offer a free consultation and brief exam. I want you to feel completely comfortable with me and know that you've found the right chiropractor for you.
“Your first visit is more than a chance to get to know each other.

Dr. Carmona
“Here's what to expect at
your first visit.”
“We’ll start by reviewing your full medical history. Next, I’ll conduct a comprehensive examination to identify the problem and determine the best way to treat it. Finally, I’ll make some chiropractic adjustments or begin rehab therapy.
Subsequent Visits
“Each individual responds differently to care. During the early stages, new patients often receive care several times a week. As you begin to respond to treatment, your visits will become less frequent. However, the duration of treatment will depend on the severity of your condition.
“My goal is not to over-utilize treatment, but to develop a program where you receive maximum benefit as quickly as possible.”

“Here are a few things you might like to know about me.”
“I was born and raised in Southern California. I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology and biology from the University of California at Riverside and I'm a graduate of the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in Whittier.
“I'm also a licensed X-ray supervisor and operator, so your treatment can begin right away, without waiting for a lab to send me your X-rays.
“I spent several years as a competitive figure skater and ballroom and latin dancer. I couldn't have survived these competitions without chiropractic treatment. It was the care I received from other chiropractors that inspired me to become a chiropractor myself.
“My hobbies include dancing, spending time with my family and volunteering my time to treat injured athletes at local sporting events.
“I'm currently a member of the California Chiropractic Association and the Santa Ana Elk’s Lodge.”

Dr. Carmona
“Here's what some of my patients say about me.”
“I've treated thousands of people, including patients in my office and injured athletes who required immediate care at local sporting events. Click on the links below to see how several of my patients feel about their treatment.”
“After seeing many chiropractors over the years, it was refreshing to meet Dr. Carmona. I'm pretty picky when it comes to health practitioners and she met all my requirements: no x-rays unless absolutely necessary, soft tissue massage around the problem vertebrae, communicate with me on how to resolve issues on my own, including a series of exercises to work on between sessions, and have a plan on how we are going to tackle the problem areas.
“During every session (I have multiple issues in different areas), she checks in with me on what's going on in my life (potential influence on the severity of the pain) and takes great care to go out of her way to fix the issues. The space between every session has increased, and I hope to see her once a quarter soon.
“I really like Dr. Carmona and will return to her when I have back pain, and will refer my network to her.”
“In my experience, Dr Heather Carmona has proven to be extremely knowledgeable, diligent, and caring. My son suffered a knee injury last year, and was misdiagnosed and mistreated by two separate doctors.
“The general MD diagnosed the injury as a sprained knee and recommended no treatment. A month later the problem had worsened, not improved.
“At this point we went to a pediatric orthopedic who diagnosed the problem as a “possible” fracture and ordered the leg be put in a cast for 4 weeks, after which he declared the knee to be “healed” and referred us to a physical therapist.
“After 8 weeks of therapy, the PT said he was healed and cleared him to resume all activity, including playing basketball.
“Two weeks later, his knee was WORSE than when he originally injured it. Walking up the stairs caused him extreme pain.
“Dr. Carmona evaluated his knee, took X-rays, and immediately ordered an MRI. We had requested an MRI previously, from the MD and the ortho, but those requests were declined as being unnecessary. As it turns out, the MRI revealed a fractured patella, patellar tendonitis, severe contusion, and severe swelling in the bone marrow and the joints.
“When the rest of the medical community was content to follow the cheapest or easiest course of action, Dr Carmona was the only person who cared enough, and was persistent enough, to insist that the proper steps be taken to identify and fix the problem.
“My son is now well on his way to recovery, thanks to Dr. Carmona's diagnosis and on-going treatment. Her professionalism, expertise, and care for her patients have helped us avoid what could have been a lifelong problem.”
“I’d like to express my gratitude to you for helping me feel better! It has been my goal to become fit and healthy, so for the past 6 months, I have been running and weight training several times a week.
“I had begun to notice increased pain and difficulty while running over the past several weeks. Knowing I wasn’t getting better, I knew exactly what I had to do — go see a chiropractor right away!
“I knew I wanted to see a female doctor in my area, so with the help of my insurance, I found you. Right away, you made me feel comfortable and I knew I was in good hands, literally!
“I was glad to know that you had a background in athletics and that you quickly understood my problem. Upon receiving my adjustment, I began to instantly feel better and even other aches and pains I had been experiencing quickly went away.
After the deep muscle treatment you gave me on my first visit, I immediately felt 90% better. Since then, on a daily basis I do the “glute” stretches you taught me and what a difference that makes.
“I don’t understand why I have neglected seeing a chiropractor all these years, knowing how quickly my body responds to treatment and how wonderfully light my spine feels after an adjustment. I know that my fitness goals will be greatly enhanced by regular visits to your office and I look forward to each and every one of them!
“It’s happy running for me, thanks to your firm but gentle hands!”
“After two grueling days of lower back pain, it was necessary for me to seek treatment. My experience with the office of Dr. Heather Carmona could not have been a more pleasant experience. From the time I walked in, until the time I left, the personal and professional treatment was superb.
“I was able to be seen quickly. Dr. Carmona listened compassionately and thoroughly evaluated my body, which allowed her to target my problem areas very effectively. She used multiple treatment techniques, which alleviated my immediate pain before I had even left the office.
“The next day I received a follow up call from Dr. Carmona personally to see how I was feeling. Having been to other chiropractic offices, I can let you know that the overall experience and quality of care given by Dr. Carmona goes above and beyond.
“I feel completely confident in Dr. Carmona’s skills and will definitely refer my family and friends.“
“Thank you very much with assisting with my pinched nerve. I was suddenly in so much pain, I was forced to visit an emergency room.
“After six hours, I was diagnosed with a pinched nerve. After several visits to four medical practitioners and a slue of pain meds, and two epidurals, I still had discomfort.
“Since having you align my back and neck, I feel 100 percent better.
I am very happy with your service and professionalism. I have recommended my family and friends to the benefits of chiropractic treatment.“
