Sports Medicine in Bakersfield

“I was an avid runner, recovering from old chronic use injuries. I transitioned to HIIT style workouts that combined strength/resistance, cardio/plyometrics, etc. I ended up with terrible pain deep in my hip/groin which limited mobility. I thought I just pulled something. After about 2 weeks of worsening symptoms, I decided to just go to a chiropractor. I googled around, looked at reviews, and decided to go with Active Life. I’m so glad I did. Dr. Walker helped me greatly. To begin with, on my very 1st visit, he did some mobility tests, and told me I may have a labral tear in my hip. Dr. Walker continued on with modified adjustment, being extra cautious with my injured hip/groin area. He recommended I see my primary doctor, and get an MRI. (which I did ASAP, and Dr. Walker was 100% correct; I had a torn hip labrum) As a result, I’ve been able to modify my workout routine to protect, and strengthen that area. Plus, my regular adjustments with Dr. Walker have helped me so much in my recovery. Each time I go, I feel so much improvement in the way I stand, walk, run, and jump. I have much better mobility, strength, and overall stability. All my pain has decreased, and I feel so much more positive about my ability to return to a fully active lifestyle. As a final shoutout, the front desk staff, and all the PT-assistants that provide e-stim treatments are all so positive, understanding, and professional. I recommend Active Life with the highest regards. The wonderful people here really know how to take care of you, and help you on your way to total wellness! (Thanks, Dr. Walker & Active Life!!!)“

“I needed physical therapy after breaking my foot and having surgery. The staff here is amazing and very friendly. Ryan was an amazing trainer and helped me get back to normal after the injury. He was patient and very knowledgeable, taking the time to carefully curate a routine for me and adapted it as I progressed.Definitely worth visiting this location if you are able to choose where to go!“

“I wouldn't have known about this chiropractor but my nephew was going there and he said I needed to be seen and made me an appointment and I'm glad he did,I have lower back and upper back pain this has helped me a lot I can walk without my cane most days and a added benefit has been my incontinence caused by overactive bladder has totally improved witch I'm happy for the receptionists are very nice and the doctors are friendly and makes you feel comfortable with them and the massage therapists are very good at their jobs“

“I had an appointment today with Dr Singh through the VA and when I checked the online reviews I was a little concerned and unsure what to expect. I can honestly report that even with triple digit weather outside the lobby though a little smaller was VERY COOL AND COMFORTABLE. So I'm going to assume anybody that previously complained about the AC they either addressed it, or those people just wanted to complain about something because I'm a larger hairy guy and it was very cool inside. The waiting room was a little smaller than I expected but it was very clean, quiet, and had a restroom available so you didn't have to hunt one down if needed. Dr Singh was very kind and professional. The staff that I did interact with seemed friendly and helpful. This urgent care is not in my living area but if I did live closer to it I would definitely recommend this location.“
