SERVING YOUTH TO COLLEGIATE ATHLETES AND ACTIVE ADULTS

15 years and counting of helping people to move, feel and perform their best

Johanna tried something new on my achy knee yesterday and today I played the best round of Pickleball ever! She has healing hands, and what her hands can’t do she has a machine that can! I am so grateful that she incorporates multiple methods in her practice to relieve pain and fatigue in my stress areas. I have found her practice helpful for relieving back pain, knee aches, plantar fasciitis, neck stiffness and tennis elbow! Whatever your alignment, I suggest giving them a go!

I had pinched nerves somewhere in my neck and upper vertebrae for the last 8 weeks causing pain and prickly sensation down to my finger tips. I had acupuncture treatment that alleviate inflammation and most of the pain but I could still feel the pinch. I was happy to book my session with my favorite Dr. Lelke. She listened attentively and treated as explaining her process which I appreciated very much. The result from the session was great.

I have been coming to Johanna and her crew for half a decade and I am constantly impressed by their skill and attention to detail! As a competitor on American a Ninja Warrior, I frequently put my body through the ringer and sometimes develop immobilizing injuries. Johanna has always been able to get me back on the course quickly and effectively! I can't recommend them highly enough!

I can give the highest praise for Onsight Chiropractic and Dr. Johanna Lelke. I've been visiting to Dr. Johanna for almost a year and a half now, originally starting due to a shoulder injury I neglected to treat for months. She had a booth at a local rock climbing gym in El Cerrito (which is how I discovered her office) and she was able to diagnose quickly and provide rehabilitation in multiple focused visits. Since then, I visit her monthly for corrections and even started taking advantage of the massage services they provide for additional muscle relief and corrections. I live in Marin and still trek out to Berkeley to visit Onsight Chiropractic. I cannot recommend them enough!

I love that Onsight Chiropratic focuses on so much more than adjusting your back. A typical session for me is 85% muscle work, and that is just perfect for my issues. Johanna and Sonja are particularly amazing.

Dr Lelke is an exceptional chiropractor with great intuition, competent and capable hands, and a thorough understanding of the body. I have been receiving regular body maintenance work from her for over a decade and can't recommend her highly enough.

Insightful, skilled and attentive care. Johanna and her crew have kept me rolling for around a decade. Highly recommended for longevity and quality of life.

I have worked with all three chiropractors at the clinic including Dr. Lelke, Dr. Stom & Dr. Cheng for a few months now. I moved from SF and was very nervous about finding a new chiropractic team in the East Bay. When I first met Dr. Lelke, I was pleasantly surprised at her initial evaluation and understanding of my illness EDS and myofascial treatment. Since, I have been to all of the chiropractors and enjoy their approach and attention to various types of methods like scraping, cupping, myofascial, skin rolling... They deserve the high rating they have. Thanks for the consistent treatment that really helps improve my quality of life.

I have been a patient here at Onsight Chiropractic for over 5 years and without Johanna and the team I don't know where I would be today. I've had anything from groin strains, hamstring pulls, hip flexors, and now most currently neck issues. Between Seeing Johanna on a consistent basis and getting frequent messages by the team at Onsight, I've seen major relief that has allowed me to continue in good health and play my various athletic activities at a high level. Thank you Johanna and Team!

Seeing Dr. Lelke is my favorite part of the week! With extensive back problems and numerous attempts at other chiropractic offices Dr. Lelke supersedes expectations. Visits are highly comprehensive and include a variety of treatments. She's incredibly caring and concerned for your well being. She's helped me drastically through injuries so that I can continue to live my highly active lifestyle! Don't know what I would do without Dr. Lelke's help!

Dr. Lelke is fantastic. She has been able to help problems in my back that I've been trying to get help with for YEARS -- many other practitioners have tried, and have not gotten the results that Dr. Lelke has achieved in a few months. She is incredibly thorough, working on muscles etc that actually support the spine, so it doesn't get pulled right back after leaving her office (which was the case with all other chiropractors I've been to). I highly recommend her practice.

Dr. Johanna Lelke was very thorough in her assessment and over the course of 6 weeks I went from a laundry list of injuries, including a torn/swollen hamstring to running the Ragnar relay this past weekend and feeling strong! The combination of Graston, chiropractic adjustments and Active release therapy (ART) was absolutely perfect. It was also really helpful and important that Johanna herself is an accomplished athlete and fully understood my eagerness to get back to running and even had suggestions of how to start back up safely. Bottom line: If you are a athlete suffering from an injury that regular physical therapy can not treat... make an appointment with Johanna today!

Dr. Lelke is more than a chiropractor; focuses on the entire body. She uses Active Release Therapy (ART) to break up the fascia which is causing me pain and limiting my mobility. I have seen multiple Physical Therapists and Doctors and she is the first person to diagnose my problem in a way I understand and treats the diagnosis in a way that releases my pain. Dr. Lelke is very professional, knowledgeable, direct, and accessible. I highly recommend Dr. Lelke.

I have always been skeptical of chiropractics until Dr. Lelke. She helped me immensely through sciatica issues that are completely gone and recently I had a hamstring injury that then affected the opposite hip. She is professional and incredibly efficient in the sense that she listens, knows exactly what to do, and does it to perfection. I recommend her to everyone I know who mentions any pain etc.

After years of lifting weights and over exerting myself, not paying attention to my body, my lower back and shoulder were wrecked from losing my form when lifting weights and not stretching before activities like surfing where I put a lot of wear and tear on my rotator cuffs. Dr. Lelke practically cured me in less than six sessions, and found the causes of all of the problems that I was experiencing on my first visit to her. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking the help of a chiropractor.

I'm probably the last person that would be willing to admit to themselves that they should go see someone for an injury. After feeling some intense consistent pain in my elbow when rock climbing that led to me to feeling extreme discomfort when opening up a peanut butter jar, I knew I was just fooling myself by trying to self-diagnose and treat via Google Search. A climbing friend recommended me to Dr. Lelke and swore she was the best out there, so I decided to go in with an open mind and do exactly what she recommended. During the sessions I had with Dr. Lelke, her knowledge and passion really made me both confident in her skills as well as my own ability to heal quicker. Several sessions later, I was back pulling on rock with significantly reduced pain. Now several months later, I'm climbing harder than I ever have before, with a great education given to me by Dr. Lelke on how to not re-injure myself. I could say a million more great things about her, but you get the point. Now go let Dr. Lelke heal you so you can get back and exceed your fullest psychical potential!

Johanna is a miracle worker and overall amazing! I started to see her during my pregnancy (when I was having terrible back pain). She relieved the problem as well as helped me feel great. After the birth, she has been a savor with getting me back into alignment and aiding with the trials of breastfeeding. She is a part of my monthly health routine - I don't know what I would do without her.

Dr. Lelke is amazing at what she does. She has been able to provide great relief to a number of areas that are a consistent problem in my body in a very short period of time. She is able to pinpoint different ailments/symptoms and then identify solutions using a combination of techniques. On top of it all, she is very professional, a great listener and very easy to understand. I've recommended her to a number of my co-workers and friends. Bonus -- you can make appointments online!

Dr. Lelke is a Skilled Doctor and Gifted Healer! I go see Dr. Lelke whenever I notice a "problem", usually for accidents (biking accident, falling down the stairs accident, or whenever I "accidentally" over do it in a workout). I remember thinking before I came to see Dr. Lelke - "This will get better on its own" or "Doctor's can't really help, the body just needs time to heal itself". I've learned with Dr. Lelke that she can provide instant relief to put things back into alignment and allow them to heal faster. I firmly believe "You're health is your wealth" and Dr. Lelke will make your life feel richer!

Johanna Lelke is a MASTER at chiropractic as well as all things Sports Medicine. I am a middle aged mom of three sons who still does all kinds of exercise as well as day-to-day body stuff. I have done my share of hours of computer work mixed with lots o' lifting in order to get groceries moved and snacks accounted for. In short, I have not had the happiest spine, but Dr. Lelke has saved the day on more than one occasion. She spends time, listens and seriously has me walking out of her office WAY better than I walked in. Super kudos to Dr. Lelke!

Dr. Lelke is extremely professional and focused on her practice, not only providing traditional adjustments that one may be accustomed to receiving at a chiropractor, but also other forms of massage, heat, etc. which seems to produce much longer lasting results as the muscles aren't as tight. Though, if you are squeamish, the massage may be a little intense! But well worth the results in my experience!

I have been through an assortment of chiropractors in the Bay Area from the run of the mill bone crackers to the new age energy workers and I have to say that Dr. Lelke is the only one who has really gotten to the core of the problem and resolved it for the longer term. I had an externally rotated hip and a lot of pain in my neck for years and the other chiropractors would align my spine and give me very temporary relief. Johanna really went deep with the graston technique and ART and broke up old adhesions that repeatedly pulled me out of alignment. She's willing to explain her method and what she is finding and I find that extremely helpful as well. I'm sleeping and walking comfortably again so I am very grateful to Dr. Lelke.

I've had trouble with my left knee for over 25 years, and with just three visits with Dr. Lelke I can feel my knee healing - she's not just giving me temporary relief, my knee (hamstring) is actually really healing. Nothing I've tried and no one I've been to in 25 years has made the kind of difference that her treatment in making. She totally understands not only body mechanics (on a deep level), but also the energetic / psycho-somatic nature of trauma. She is a truly talented healer and I feel very grateful to have found her!

I was treated by Dr. Lelke 8 or 9 times over a six week period for a rotator cuff injury sustained climbing at the gym. From my first visit, I was impressed with how quickly she produced results and how effective her treatment and stretching/strengthening suggestions were. With every treatment she zeroed in on areas that needed work, whether I had been aware of them or not and by the end of my visits, I felt progress not only with my injury, but with chronic upper back tightness that she also saw as a related symptom. Highest recommendations!

I am a runner in my 60s. Dr. Lelke was recommended to me when I injured my hip flexors, not running but restarting yoga. She conducted a very thorough, thoughtful diagnostic appointment and fixed the problem over the course of about 4 weeks. I still go see her for checkups to make sure everything is as it should be -- especially before long runs. I have referred four people to her, and they are as grateful as I am. Highly recommended.

She is amazing! The past year or so have been physically challenging for me, I came to her for 2 very different reasons, back/hip and shoulder/elbow issues and my husband saw her as well for something entirely different. We are active people and want to be at 100% to maintain our lifestyle. What I love most is how she uses all the techniques that she has in her back pocket to truly treat her patients. I saw her once a week for a couple months and my hip issue was complete resolved, no pain at all! I am currently working through my shoulder issue, but each week it gets better, I can tell the difference. She is a wealth of information and if you are interested, she tells you all the anatomical things going on and why she does what she does - for me, that has been a major asset to my healing. I trust her and appreciate her, she always knows how to pinpoint the issues even when I can't tell the exact point of origin myself. I highly recommend Dr. Johanna Lelke. I make the trek to Berkeley from SF - she is just that good and worth the commute!

I'm an athlete who's received excellent treatment from Dr. Lelke, and a Berkeley-based bodyworker who's referred my own clients to her. Why? A holistic approach to chiropractic that emphasizes soft-tissue work alongside the usual adjustments. No quick cracks then back to the car, where your still-tight musculature will ruin your recent treatment -- Dr. Lelke is a deft and powerful practitioner of Graston technique, ART, and other soft-tissue modalities which amplify the effect of her skeletal adjustments. Also, I like treatment from healing professionals who are themselves practicing athletes (track, in Dr. Lelke's case), because I know they understand and take seriously the performance concerns of their patients. Finally, Dr. Lelke backs up her clinical knowledge with an approachable, interested, and down-to-earth tableside manner. We're in good hands here, folks. Ask to see the bionic thumb!

I highly recommend Dr. Lelke! I was having a lot of tension and pain in my shoulder area the last few months and finally decided to see a chiropractor. After a couple of sessions with Dr. Lelke it was already feeling back to normal. She uses an array of techniques including Graston, chiropractic adjustments and Active Release therapy and gives you some simple exercises to do at home to help. She explains everything she does and will answer any questions or concerns you have. So glad I found Dr. Lelke!
