"Over the years, I have had nagging knee & hip pains due to injuries that I sustained during my youth. After going thru numerous speÂcialÂists, x-rays, and MRIâs, I finally asked a friend of mine who works closely with many professional athletes for advice. His recÂomÂmenÂdaÂtionâ¦go to Athleteâs Care! I began seeing chiÂroÂpracÂtor Amrita Kharkar in the summer of 2013. Through the use of chiÂroÂpracÂtic techÂniques, including Active Release TechÂniques & AcupuncÂture, I can honestly say that I have defÂiÂnitely seen major imÂproveÂments throughÂout. This has not only enabled me to return to playing recreÂational sports, but to stay active with my two young children. I have become a big believer in ChirÂoÂpracÂtic care & would recommend Athleteâs Care without any hesitation." - Navi Dhami
"Dr. Amrita is first and foremost very professional and friendly. When I met her, she took her time and asked me relevant questions pertaining to my injury. I subsequently saw her 4 more times, each time relieving the tension in my neck, loosen up the muscles. I am very happy that I had her treat my issue. I would most definitely go back and see her again" - Efia
