best chiropractor in the city..... which places him high in the running world wide. no appointments necessary, just walk in.
a kung fu & chi gong master, doc andy uses his powers to heal and is a true renaissance man, his "office" is a large open studio with original paintings n sculptures all over the walls. the atmosphere is warm & friendly, and there's a gang of ultra-intuitive n skilled body workers on hand to fix whatever's ailing you. go on monday or fridays for affordable and miraculous acupuncture treatments. ask for john - when i blew out my rotator cuff and lost the use of my left hand a few months ago, he calmly assessed the situation and after a month of treatments had me back to 100 percent. i would probably go to these guys before seeing a doctor, barring some cataclysmic event.
everyone over there knows their stuff. i Highly recommend doc Andy's to anybody. worth the trip to chinatown from anywere in the city.
I used to live across the street from Dr andy on divisadero.Id look out my window and see him doing chi sau or explaining some principal from bill gee or chum kiu,always something pertaining to wing chun.cricked me back one day and went over to Dr Andy to see what he might be able to do for my crick.Over all i found him and his staff very friendly,he gave me some treatment,explained some spine function to me and let me rest before i went back across the street to begin watching his shop again,my back was much better.I like the man and his energy,he is a healer for sure,good spirit and a fine chiropractor.
If you're on a budget or just want the convenience of "on demand" chiropractic, this is the chiropractor for you! I have had a stiff neck for years since a car accident and Dr. Andy and his staff really helped me make life bearable again. Andy is very knowledgeable and you can also get Jon's expertise in acupuncture and a varied supply of massage therapists too. They do private sessions for an additional fee. This is easy by bus and foot, but don't try to park your car in Chinatown. Andy has an open workspace so tables are lined up in the main room so not much privacy if you want to discuss your medical condition. And it's also his art studio so you can check out paintings and sculpture and whatever people are working on at the moment, it changes all the time. I have been doing an Ionic footsoak detox and I love it!!!
Hours could be better, I would go more often if I felt I could make it there before they close.
SiFu Doc Andy is NOT for the faint of heart.
He will, however , rack you and crack you and crack you up and teach you kung fu all in your first visit, and keep you coming back forever based on his sheer tazmanian devil energy and your incessantly building waterfall of giggles.
If he doesn't fix you, his massage therapists ( paid by tip... so pack extra ! ) will make up the difference.
If you need instant help, today
go and see him
office hours, last i checked - 11-2 mon wed fri sat
4-6 mon thru fri
and ask him about wing chun kung fu classes
the circus of amazing genei, crazy crackers that rotate through is walls is epic.
you must be taller than /// this sign/// to ride on his ride
Great place for a quick fix. Snap. Crackle. Pop. And a rub down after. No appointment needed, and even at its most busy, the wait is pretty much nil.
I went to Dr Andy Lesko. I already have had excellent results!
I had places in my spine that were tight for years from wearing those sexy 3 inch high heels!
I went for one session. When I returned I bought a package of 10.
I have gone for about 7 sessions, the tight place moved today! I am committed to assisting my body & spine with flexibility. Chiropractic is a healthy choice for assisting the spine with flexibility.

Service; Chiropractic adjustment followed by a mini massage. Various people available for excellent massage. You can schedule a full massage with any of these wonderful therapists.
Excellent Professional Services. Dr. Lesko has a process he follows with the person, depending on where their body is at currently.
I strongly recommend walking 15 to 20 minutes after the adjustment to integrate the change with your body. If you notice after the walk, something feels out of place, return and ask Dr Lesko about this. Sometimes the body needs the walk for the adjustment to settle & other parts will be more open to moving.
The office; very casual. He does art painting in this office too. Various Asian martial arts are practiced daily.
PLEASE NOTE: Some people go to a Chiropractor when they have a misalignment (pain). After the adjustment, they seem to feel more "pain" afterwards.
What this really is; the spine was suppressing the flow in that area. When the flow opens back up, more sensation will be felt.
Similar to a garden hose with water flowing through it. Kink the hose & the water stops. Unkink the hose and the water immediately rushes out, then calms back down to normal flow.
the smell of cigarettes and a bunch of burnt incense to cover up the cigarettes made my hurt lungs SO FLIPPEN BAD thought i was going to have an asthma attack .... my back was tweaked a little so i went here the other day ONLY because i was in the neighborhood ... next time i will wait and go to my other Dr. .... i left with my back feeling better, but i couldn't breath. I love people who work in the "healing arts" and smoke cigs ... he is good for the back but BAD for the lungs ... if you go make sure he hasn't just finished a cig or make sure to bring a S.A.R.S. mask with you!
If you are in pain or even if you feel ideal, Dr. Andy's first free visit is worth the time and trip to China town. The doctor will evaluate your spine via touch (no x rays here), adjust your body, and then a superior staff of massage therapists will round out the treatment with some rub a dub dub. The office is a sight to behold. The doctor is a terrific artist and and his prodigious skills are in full display. Oil paintings and sculpture add to the healing environment since the space feels more like a gallery. Insurance is accepted or several reasonable cash plans are available as well. The office is open M-F 11-1pm and 4-6pm as well as Saturday 11-1pm. No appointment is necessary. Seriously people this a hot deal where your body and wallet will thank you. 415-863-3101 Let them know that Kathryn enthusiasticly sent you.
Are you in pain? Do you feel unbalanced? Well, you may need an "adjustment" and have I got the solution for you...meet Dr. Andrew Lesko-- "Dr. Andy" as he's known to his patiients. I have been going to Dr.Andy's off and on for 10 years now and he recently moved from Divisadero Street to Clay in the heart of Chinatown. HIs new office is spacious, bright and comfortable. It's also an art gallery, where his beautiful paintings hang on the walls. If you're new to chiropractic adjustments, Dr. Andy quickly makes you feel at ease, your first visit is free and includes exam, history (he reviews the questionnaire you completed), adjustment and recommendations ( highlights the area of your spine and the nerves that they affect causing your malaise). I've taken several friends to see him over the years, many in great pain from years of manual labor or years spent in front of a computer (me!). His technique and office space is unique because there aren't any "private" doors or partitions--every adjustment is done out in the open in a very friendly and relaxing atmosphere. No reason to be shy! The adjustment takes 3-5 mintues if that--starting with your neck and then working all the way down you spine. Aftewards you're treated to a 10 minute massage, awww what a treat! Etienne has the most magical hands and knows instinctivly the areas that need the most attention. Then there's John, who works Fridays and Saturdays providing accupuncture, as well as deep tissue massage. A couple years ago I had a backache so bad I couldn't stand up straighr--John gave me a treatment--even inserting a needle just above my upper lip (wow, I was stunned!!) and by the next day the backache had subsided! I swear by this treatment. I took a friend there yesterday for his first adjustment and he was telling me how great he felt all the way home. Dr. Andy would like me to refer more of my friends; so, that's what I'm doing here, fellow yellpers; so, do me a favor if you go check it out for your FIRST FREE VISIT, please tell him GABI sent you! And be sure to drop me a line to tell how great you feel afterwards. His office hours are Monday-Friday from 11am-1pm and then again 4pm-6pm and Saturday from 11am-1pm. And no appointment necessary!
