I brushed it off as a stiff neck but after a few days it got so bad that laying down was painful and my right shoulder became numb. I had already made an appointment but I called when it got worse and they told me to come in the same day. This was yesterday as I'm typing this. I told Dr. Zen what happened and he throughly analyzed where the problem was by feeling my pressure points. He applied pressure and massaged the problem points before the adjustment. The adjustment was right in the spot where my pain was. It felt amazing. I know some chiropractors are afraid of doing certain adjustments and some usually do the same thing on every person but Dr. Zen truly knows what he's doing. If you're reading this and in pain but conflicted about calling... Call! read lessGwen Jenks 3 weeks ago

But burning pain on the medial side of my knee has prevented me from running for the last two years. I was beginning to lose hope when a colleague recommended that I let Dr. Zen take a look at it. After three sessions the pain was gone! I am now running a loop around Diamond Head 4-5 times a week, and beginning to add distance targeting a half marathon in about a month.

Dr. Zen and the front desk got my paper work in order efficiently. I worked with Dr. Bautista and he did a great job explaining his process with me before, throughout, and after the appointment. I went in feeling very informed and listened to. After the hot pads, realignment throughout my back and neck, I immediately felt a sense of release and relief from tension, stress, and anxiety. I am a PhD student and I spend a lot of time in front of a computer. I’ve been living with this pain for several years and that is why I appreciate this process. I hope to come back for a next visit to help reverse years of pain due to work. read lessDemiliza Saramosing 2 months ago

The receptionists are very friendly and helpful, the doctor is knowledgeable, caring and gets the job done, I always walk out feeling better and often with some advice on how to prevent these issues from occurring more. He adjusts the back and neck by actually cracking it which is my favorite form of chiropractic work. They can often fit me in same day or within a day or two so easy scheduling as well.

I tried going to a chiropractor. I’m not going to say where but I’ll just say after going I didn’t think chiropractors were magical, so I stayed away. But as the months went on my back and neck hurt more and more so I decided to give it another try. I went to Zen Health Center and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. They changed my view about chiropractors and also changed my life! Even though I only had one session I feel a positive life change already. The pain the my back and neck has gotten way better. I will definitely be going back again and again. read lessShelby Furtado 2 months ago

From the start, he uses his sense of humor to welcome you into the space and makes you as comfortable as possible before your massage. He then asks you to describe the pain on your body to see what massage will best fit your needs. No matter the area of your pain, Emilio can sufficiently massage and soothe your muscles. His techniques and skills vary greatly. Some days when I feel more pain on my back, he will use a heating pad and massage oils. But on other days, when I just need to relax, he can quickly switch to a lighter, more soothing massage.
The best thing about Emilio is that if you are a frequent patient then he has the opportunity to understand your muscles and what your body needs. I highly recommend Emilio for any type of massage but his skills as a massage therapist are especially amazing for pain and joint relief. You won't regret an appointment with him! read less

Since then I have gone to a couple chiropractors and a number of massage therapists over the intervening years yo mixed results.
My back had a combination of dull and sharp pain throughout my upper back for the past week, so I visited Zen for an initial appointment + an adjustment. My pain dissipated quite a lot.

I was wondering what kinds of things they do and my friend who happens to work there is assured me that the questions they ask are about me, which was not too bad. When I walked in i didn't have to wait too long and they let me sit down and waited until the doctor came and did the resistance test, which was ok. This is a good experience for me because I never thought I'd be able to try out the vitamin b in a power form and drinking it. It made pique my curiosity because I wanted to know what they do and whenever I get a chance to go there again i would be great to check it out and have a great experience to get into a heath center so at least they are the ones that has been in experienced working in the medical field as well to we can leave so customers will be available be feeling better and more relaxed and better.

Never been to a chiropractor before. Since Dr. Zen was in downtown where I work, it was a convenient location. Glad that I found him. After a couple of sessions I started to get a lot better. Importantly he gave me specific stretching and exercise routines that I religiously followed to build up my lower back and stomach muscles. He also recommended joint anti-inflammation nutrients that I've been taking. Now I'm am almost completely recovered. I still do the exercises, stretch and make sure I am carefully in lifting and bending. I would personally recommend Dr. Zen to my friends and family. read less

I was in so much pain that I was coming once a week. Since then, I came back after getting physical therapy for my knee/hip. Most recently, I've come back for general alignment. It's tremendously helped my running and day to day functionality.
I've been to only a few chiropractors, so I don't have a huge sample to compare. The thing I like about Dr. Zen is that he warms you up before doing the adjustment.

Its been several months, and Dr. Zen is very good. I've probably gone to 7 other chiropractors over the last 15 years, and Dr. Zen is in the top 2 (maybe the best, but hard to say since it has been years). Dr. Zen also give helpful advice on posture, exercises, and stretches. Besides being skilled, he tries to remain as objective as possible, and doesn't oversell things - that means a lot. read less

A few weeks ago I woke up with neck pain so unbearable that I couldn't breathe properly. After asking around, Dr. Zen's reputation kept coming up as superb (and the yelp reviews helped also). When I went to see him, he was patient and listened to my concerns then took his time explaining the process. By the end of the first treatment I could breathe again and was happy to schedule followup treatments. I'm back to 100%, and after several followup visits have decided that I feel so much better that I will continue to see him for regular maintenance. Thanks Dr. Zen! read less

He expertly identified exactly what my body needed for a speedy recovery. He is patient, kind, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about the health of his clients. Another aspect that I value and deeply appreciate about Dr. Zen is that he is punctual with appointments. That's nearly unheard of in this type of medical setting. I love the fact that his office offers professional massages as well. His entire staff is friendly, and welcoming. I recommend Dr. Zen to anyone needing chiropractic care. With the sensitive nature of manipulating the spine and neck, it's critical to work with someone you trust. I trust Dr. Zen completely. read less

My PCP had given me prescription pain meds and muscle relaxers and they didn't work. I went to see Dr. Zen and for the first time in two weeks, the pain was gone. The pain has come back but it's nowhere near as bad as before - and it's not constant. I'll need to go back for a few more visits before things are completely better but at least the pain is not debilitating like it was before. read less

I have used many chiropractors throughout the years, as my spinal issues started to surface in my mid twenties (now 46). Dr. Zen I can say without a doubt is the best!
Not only is he very professional and courteous, but when asked specific questions about treatment, health, or fitness, I found out he has a vast amount of knowledge! He also fits the part, being very physically active and in great shape.
I started seeing him when I used to work downtown, as his office was close to mine. I still choose to go there, even I now work from home in Kaneohe and my field work is all on the Windward side. After going back to a desk job when I had previously worked on the family farm, sure enough my stiff neck that had somehow gone away while working outdoors came back! Dr. Zen has been able to stabilize and reliably reduce my discomfort and stiffness. He's also very good about advising patients on things they should do on their own in order to minimize spinal problems, from how to set up your desk, chairs to use, etc.
I give Zen Health Center my highest recommendation! read less

I used to go to different therapists to relieve sore muscles and prevent injuries such as deep tissue massage, rolfing and acupuncture. However I started going to Dr. Zen last year and now I'm hooked! He takes insurance and so it costs a lot less and his treatment takes less than an hour so it helps me squeeze it into my busy work day. He is thorough, gentle, and gives advice on what I can work on at home (stretches!). I make sure to visit him before and after races so I can be back on my feet to do what I enjoy the most!

So today I headed to Zen Health Center and had high expectations. My needs were met! I learned I had a minor case of scoliosis and went through numerous physical tests to determine my nerve and body sensory abilities prior to adjustment. Dr. Zen was very careful and when I told him about my concerns regarding my neck, he suggested alternative routes including an electric stimulation machine with a hot pad. I had numerous questions for him in addition to my concerns and he was extremely helpful. He provided me with a couple exercises to do before seeing him the following week. He is very knowledgeable and knows what he is talking about. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Another thing to look out for is chiropractors who ask you to come on a weekly basis. The best chiropractors are those that work and can offer you a reasonable timeline to fix your back. Dr. Zen did both for me and I am sure my experience will continue to be a success!! read less

Every time I leave Dr. Zen's office I feel awesome. I have a bad back and neck. So first he loosens my back up using heated blankets, an electric stimulator machine and a table that moves your legs up and down. After about ten minutes, it is time for Dr. Zen to do his magic. He cracks my back and adjusts my neck, back and hips. When I leave I feel all better. He reminds me to do my stretches and never seems upset that I never seem to do them.
Dr. Zen is very nice. He always remembers where I work, my hobbies, or if I was out of town, he remembers to ask how my trip was.
I'm so glad to have found and excellent, trustworthy chiropractor. If you can't trust your chiropractor, you'll never be able to relax enough to be adjusted. My previous chiropractor really messed up my neck (I couldn't turn my head for days) so it says a lot that I completely trust Dr. Zen. I recently started sending my husband to him and Dr. Zen has really helped him as well.

At my first visit, Dr. Zen analyzed my flexibility, showed which side compensates for my functional side (my right foot is shorter than my left by a smidge; I'm a freak! Nooooo!!!), and used massage, hot, cold, and electrical therapies on my leg and body. Much to my surprise, after one session, the swelling from my Achilles' had gone down over 75% within 24 hours of my visit! It was obvious to me that my Achilles' tendon was well on its way to recovery.
What makes Dr. Zen even more awesome is he takes time to suggest stretches and core exercises that would strengthen your weaker side/points/core, and also prevent injury from reoccurring.
Since I began to see Dr. Zen for my Achilles' and adjustments, and also adhering to his recommended exercises and injury prevention protocol, I have been injury free (sans bicycle road rash... grrrr). Dr. Zen is very knowledgeable, communicates well, and genuinely cares about his patients and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

I saw Dr. Zen for chiropractic adjustments soon after. He was able to figure out problems in my spine just by touching the affected areas. He starts off treatment with electrical stimulation and hot pack. You also get to lay down on a massage table that flexes your back automatically. The adjustments he gives are aggressive but very effective. After that, I was told to do some stretches at home which I did but I still can't complete the amount that he recommends.
His website is very useful and shows the types of insurance he accepts. You can also schedule an appointment online.
Unfortunately, my back issue wasn't resolved. Dr.Zen informed me that protruding disc can't be fixed by adjustments alone but at least it helped me get most of my mobility back. read less
