Wow! Dr. Dawn & her staff are amazing! Most thorough exam I think I have ever had, incredibly friendly, she understands runners & the need to eliminate the pain / issues, so we can get back to running! After my first ART I am already feeling less pain & have faith after her treatment plan I will be running pain free.

I was so impressed with my visit to Dr. Dawn today. She is so obviously experienced and amazing at what she does, that I feel like I am in very good hands going to see her. I would definitely highly recommend her and I will be back!

I developed sciatica during my training program for the Boston Marathon 2016.  Two-months out from the race, I quit training and took a 4 week break.  Dr. Dawn Liu was recommended by a few of the runners in my running circle. I called Action Performance immediately.  Dr. Dawn spent nearly an hour on my first visit.  I was sweaty!   Bending, stretching, squatting, and even running.

She broke down my issues.  It wasn’t just sciatica.  I was dealing with hip issues, tight hamstrings, weak glutes, and my form was suffering.  The sciatic pain was the last straw.  I was devastated with the set-back.  She started treatment (ART) immediately and had me stretching and working on my core at home.   Two weeks later I was back to running short distances.  I wasn’t completely healed but I was able to run with much less discomfort.  The ART was targeting the deep tissue that had been stressed for so long and impossible to reach with simple stretching and foam rolling

One month later, I raced my best half marathon by more than 2 minutes.  And one month after that, I toed the line at Boston!  I raced my strongest full marathon even with terrible weather conditions.  Most importantly, I was pain free.

I have to thank Dr. Dawn for all that she did to me physically and mentally.  She knows what she’s doing!  She treats the problem and she corrects the cause as well.  She gave me the confidence I needed to get myself back to running and to trust in the treatment.

Dr Dawn and Ben from Action Performance Care used A.R.T. to treat my daughter for sports-induced shin splints that had been causing problems for over 2 years .   After a few short sessions, my daughter is now 100% pain free.  Dr Dawn also helped with her running form to minimize the chance of reoccurrence.   Very highly recommended.

Dr. Dawn Liu has literally helped change my life.  I was on the verge of not being able to distance run ever again after experiencing toe issues during my 2011 marathon training season.  After experiencing another toe injury early in my 2013 marathon training season, I started Active Refease Technique, ART, and have noticed immediate positive results since. Dr. Dawn Liu performed a biomechanics analysis of my funning form and has made recommendations on how I should run and has been actively working with me weekly. If you have any injury concerns or chronic issues, I highly recommend Dr. Liu.

Dr. Liu is smart with great skills and knowledge. She is more than a Chiropractor.  In 2007, I went to see Dr. Liu after a minor rear ended car accident. I actually didn’t feel anything but since insurance will pay it, I told my self why not see her since her office was just 5 minutes away from my apartment.  Dr. Liu ordered X-RAY then reviewed the X-RAY films. She was able to tell that I’m a long time laptop user and and told me to get a monitor and correct my siting position. Her practice is great too. I feel much better after only two sections.  After I moved Dallas, I can’t find a comparable chiropractor in Dallas.

I’ve been in treatment for frozen shoulder with Dr. Dawn for 3 weeks and am feeling so much better, I just have to Yelp about it.

I started having pain in my left upper arm in July 2010 and thought it was from working out, so I took a break to heal up.  The pain got worse despite the rest and I went to my primary care doc, who diagnosed me with a shoulder impingement & said nothing could really be done about it except to take anti-imflammatories for the pain.  I tried massage, other chiropractors and physical therapy with my HMO, but was still in near constant pain and thinking that I would never get better.

I found Action Chiropractic after doing an Internet search for shoulder impingement treatment and made an appointment. The office staff was very pleasant to deal with and got me in quickly.  Dr. Dawn took an extensive history and studied the range of motion I had in my left arm from many different angles and positions. She diagnosed me with adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) and told me about A.R.T. (active release technique) therapy.  She was honest and said the treatment would be very painful, but that my range of motion would be restored and I would be pain free within about 10 sessions.

She was NOT kidding about the painful treatment!   At some points, it hurts so badly, I’m not sure if I can stand anymore.  She really knows what she’s doing though, and does all she can to make it easier and talk me through the pain.

I noticed a difference after the very first session, and now after 4 sessions, there has been a HUGE improvement in both my range of motion and pain level.  I am no longer in constant pain, and am able to exercise again and sleep through the night.  I don’t have total range of motion back yet, but I’m getting there quickly under Dr. Dawn’s care.

Give her a try if you’re having chronic pain and haven’t gotten any relief from other techniques.

Both Dr. John and Dr. Anna have worked on me on several occasions now not to recover from injuries but instead maintain optimal health and allow me to continue with a demanding training regimen. I always walk out of their office feeling so much better than I walked in, with better functioning tissues, improved mobility, and great muscle activation. Beyond the immediate physical benefits, both Dr. John and Dr. Anna possess a wealth of knowledge and provide me with the tools to better care for myself when I’m not in their office. They’ve helped me create a better understanding of my own working anatomy and how I can maximize my own physical potential. 5 stars does not do these guys justice.

I developed a serious pain in my toe/foot over a few months and was in constant pain. I couldn’t apply pressure on my toe and walking on that foot became uncomfortable to the point of wincing. I went to my normal doctor to get a x-ray and have them check it out. The x-ray showed no damage to my foot despite the swelling and my described pain. They suggested it was possibly arthritis and something that I would just have to deal with and medicate the rest of my life. I’m 27.

I visited Action Chiropractic for a second opinion, and I’m glad I did. Working with Dr. Dawn, she was able to identify the causes of my pain and help me correct it. I had developed many bad walking habits which were causing the stress and pain in my toe/foot. During our sessions, Dr. Dawn helped by working on/massaging the affected muscles to reduce the pain significantly in the short term, and then provided me with step by step corrections to fix my bad walking habits for the long term.

Dr. Dawn helped turn my recent experience of constant pain back into my normal, pain free, life I had before.
