Hosmer Chiropractic

Dr. DeVasto is a great addition to the office. He works on weekends and after typical work hours, which provide clients with many more options. Dr. DeVasto has been helping treat me for chronic back pain issues and has a great approach with providing relief, identifying new exercises, and targeting my needs on each visit. In addition, Phil provided me with a list of his favorite spots in Boston and they were all fantastic - that was super nice of him. Also very appreciative of the staff's help, especially Carmen. more

I went to visit Dr Philip DeVasto because I wanted assistance with upper back discomfort due to bike riding (a sport that I embraced this past summer). He did not discourage me to give up cycling, instead, he explained to me the proper posture and the science behind it without much technicalities. Not only he helped me remove that pain I had, his experience as a cyclist made it so that I have complete confidence and trust in his judgment. In addition, his front desk stuff have been very welcoming and friendly every time I have come in for treatment. Dr DeVasto, is a great doctor, his treatments have been highly effective, I didn’t need to book appointments every day or every other day to get well; for that I highly recommend him. more

I highly recommend the Hosmer Chiropractic Health if you are living in pain and need relief. Dr. DeVasto is skilled, kind and caring, he was able to bring relief after the first session. His gentle manipulation has been effective but the treatment does not stop there, he also recommends practicle tools for home care and exercises that are not complicated or overwhelming. The massage therapists are awesome, the staff is friendly and professional, the facility is asthetically pleasing and comfortable. I give this clinic a ten!! \r Jonie H. more

I am very happy with Hosmer Chiropractic. I have received excellent treatment and I highly recommend Dr. Devasto. He has worked with me dealing with plantar fasciitis and the results are better than I would have expected! Very professional clinic with friendly staff. more

Hosmer Chiropractic is friendly and professional. The atmosphere is bright and athletic. They provide a multitude of treatment options! more

Dr. Hosmer has been a savior in regard to my neck issues. He listened to my symptoms and talked with me about what he felt the treatment should be. Within 3 visits I felt significantly better more

Hosmer Chiropractic is the best. I appreciate the time Dr. Hosmer spends discussing my issues and developing a custom non-prescription solution to them. The front desk staff is always very courteous and welcoming. This is the ONLY chiropractic place to go in the Portland area. more

I was in a pretty bad car accident that resulted in some major neck pain. Dr. Hosmer not only does adjustments but shows you various home care techniques to help hurry up the healing process. He did such wonders that I recommended my wife and a friend see him. Both are convinced he is a miracle worker. In addition to offering chiropractic care Hosmer Chiro offers massage therapy. Both massage therapists are top notch. You will not be disappointed. more

I scheduled a series of appointments with Dr. Hosmer to treat pain in my hip that resulted from running. I have visited another local chiropractor in the past to treat a similar injury, but Dr. Hosmer's approach was much more effective, and ultimately, the healing was far more progressive. He was very thorough about explaining his diagnosis and treatment. It was easy to trust his knowledge about sports injuries, because not only does he treat so many athletes, but he has a competitive and coaching background in endurance sports. I am looking forward to return to Hosmer Chiropractic not just to treat future injuries, but also for coaching and consulting for injury prevention. He also supplies the Godfather of foam rollers - it was the single best equipment purchase I've made in the last year. more

I have seen Dr Hosmer for many different Sports Injuries, and I have always walked away feeling great. Dr Hosmer also shows me how to prevent future Injuries. I would highly recommend Dr Hosmer to anyone with a Sports Injury. more

I was in great deal of sciatica pain and hobbled into Dr. Hosmer's clinic. He was utmost professional, took time to get complete history and provided with some immediate relief through working some of the soft tissue. I have been going to his clinic for about 2 months and feeling great! Leah does an unbelievable massage and partners closely with Dr.Hosmer to ensure focus on needed areas for treatment. Dr Hosmer and his full staff are a crown jewel! Been to many chiropractic clinics and none have come to close to being the outstanding service and care provided here. Dr. Hosmer treats the whole patient in a very thoughtful manner. Highly recommend this clinic to help you get healthy and pain free. more

After possibly having exaggerated a yoga lesson I was suffering from extreme muscles spasms in the shoulder...Never having entered a chiropractic practice before I was amazed by the results achieved by Dr. Hosmer and his team.\r I also loved Hillary's massages and even went there later after all the symptoms were gone.\r I was so impressed by the good results that I showed Dr. Hosmer an old injury of the adductor resulting from overstreching the muscles. With a few knowledgable grasps he managed to loosen some old scar tissue and all of a sudden I had regained the full flexibility of my leg.\r This was so convincing that the next thing I tackled was a bike fitting session as I am suffering from lower back pain when riding in steeper terrain for a longer time. The bike fitting session resulted in a recommendation to change the stem. A measure I haven't had time to realize yet. But I am convinced it will show the expected results.\r more

Put simply, the services offered by Dr. Hosmer's practice come highly recommended. I subscribe mostly to coaching, but I often utilize the massage therapy and have been adjusted chiropractically by Dr. Hosmer. In what may be perceived as an understatement, I see no reason to cease the use any of these services provided by Hosmer Chiropractic Health in the near or distant future. This is a highly satisfied patient and customer. more

I've been seeing Dr. Hosmer since this past spring regarding lower back issues while cycling. This has been an ongoing problem for many years and one that I thought I could just train through. After meeting with Dr. Hosmer he quickly identified a few of the key problems and recommended a number of improvements to my riding position and stretching routine. If you have issues with your lower back I would immediately contact Dr. Hosmer. After the bike fit and a few treatments I noticed immediate improvements. What I really appreciate about Dr. Hosmer's services is that he provided stretching and strengthening routines that I could do on my own time. The fact that Dr. Hosmer is an accomplished cyclist himself provided a key understanding of the mechanisms involved in cycling and how best to go about alleviating my lower back issues. Thank you Dr. Hosmer! more

I have been a patient of Dr Hosmer for the last year and have seen great results. I had been experiencing an annoying pain in my left knee for at least six years and had seen four different specialists in the hopes that the issue could be resolved. After months of treatment with each specialist there was never any improvement, and I had started to feel that the pain was something I just needed to live with. My initial visits with Dr Hosmer were for chiropractic adjustments, but during one visit I mentioned the knee pain. Dr Hosmer tried a few things and realized that the issue was something deeper and suggested a scan to see what we were working with. The results came back with one large cyst and several smaller cysts. The treatment... Graston therapy. In less than three months Dr Hosmer has made drastic improvements with my knee and while there are still some treatments to go I know he's on the right track. I rarely feel the pain now, after all these years, and as a competitive cyclist being able to ride without pain is incredible. From the chiropractic care, the soft/deep tissue message, the Graston therapy, the extensive bike fitting and the coaching, the staff at Hosmer Chiropractic Health have worked miracles for me and I would recommend them to anyone. more

Fearing the worst with a hip injury prior to the start of the '10 road racing season, I visited Dr. Hosmer and his staff. Three visits later and after following the prescribed ""homework"" of stretching and rest, I was back on the bike and training pain free. Other opinions had all ended in invasive, expensive therapies, but Dr. Hosmer had me back on my pedals in no time and training, without long term doctor care, or even worse - surgery. I owe my season to the folks at Hosmer Chiropractic. more

Dr. Hosmer and his staff offer excellent service and wonderful healthcare. I originally visited the office, located conviently the in the Pearl District, for a bicycle fit inspired by a nagging hip pain. It was immediately obvious that everyone in the office is knowledgeable, friendly and enjoys helping their clients. In working with Seth and his team, I was able to aleviate the ongoing issues associated with my riding, as well as identify other areas of my body which were inhibiting performance and causings chronic problems. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for a great solution to ongoing pain or soreness. more

Started out at clinic with Hillary the massage therapist - who is wonderful! Then started seeing Dr. Hosmer as well. Great techniques. Really find the active release therapy helpful in my rehab. Would recommend this clinic to all with no hesitation. more

About seven months ago, I started a coaching program with Quinn from HCH. I think coaching saved me from over training and burning out. Quinn planned my workouts into my daily commute, which made training more manageable, and life better in general. I have stayed strong and consistent throughout the racing season, and even won a state champ jersey! Quinn has raced in all of the races in the area, so he is a good resource. Once I had a question about my bike fit, and Quinn had me come by that afternoon to check it out. I thought that was pretty accommodating! Before starting the coaching program, I saw Dr. Hosmer for an initial check up. He was friendly and approachable. I don't have much of a reason to see a chiropractor, but it is comforting to know that his practice is there should any problem arise. Also, Dr. Hosmer and Quinn both ride their bikes to work. The office is easy to get to by bike! more

About 25 years ago, I had an accident that resulted in 1 arm not having the same range of motion as the other (effectively shortening my reach to my handlebars). Over the years, I have managed to twist and contort my body to fit my bike rather than have the bike fit me. I tried one local bike fitter a few years ago and his services were ok. Not knowing anything better, I went along my way. A few years ago, I purchased a new CX bike (made out of Aluminum) for the upcoming CX season which I was going to race. The beauty of the bike was how stiff it was and fun to race. The downside of the bike was how stiff it was and how it beat up my back. I was referred to Dr. Hosmer by a friend and went in for some adjustments and treatment. He said he could do bike fittings as well. I agreed to the idea and came back a few weeks later. In the bike fitting, Dr. Hosmer took full body measurements and then took the measurements off of my bike and transferred them to a FIT bike (it's fully adjustable to simulate any bike fit). He then videotaped me as I rode the measurements of my bike. We then watched the playback and talked about my body position and what needed to change. By the end of the session, Dr. Hosmer had recommended I switch my handlebar to something a bit more back friendly (shallow drops), and adjust my saddle height and setback. He also put a lift under my left foot because he had also determined that my left leg is shorter than my right. By doing these things, he was able to smooth out my pedal stroke and my body position. Fast forward to last year when I was involved in a car accident that totaled my car. When I needed to see a therapist and wanted an honest opinion about what was going on, I went straight to Dr. Hosmer. Not only did he have me come in for weekly massage treatments and adjustments, he also made sure I came in for his weekly stretching classes which helped ensure the treatments were taking hold. The combination of it all helped me tremendously and I had the best CX season I have ever had. As a patient of Dr. Hosmer's, I can't say enough good things about him and his staff. Even his new office space is great as well! Whenever someone asks for a referral, my first and only option to them is Dr. Hosmer. more
