I’ve been seeing Dr. Santelli for over 8 years and she has been a god send. She has helped me through different ailments in life when conventional medicine had no answers. She is the best of the best and worth every penny.

I’ve been going to Santelli Functional Wellness for 4 years now. The staff are wonderful, caring people who are there to help you.
Dr. Santelli always takes time to ask whats happening in my body, she helps with my bloodwork, and spends considerable time doing body work to help keep me moving well. I see her and the staff every month, and sometimes more if I’ve had an injury. I’ve recommended Santelli to many friends and athletes that I work with, and will continue to do so.

Dr. Santelli is the first and only doc who finally (after 30 yrs) permanently FIXED my TMJ. When I say I’ve tried every other type of practitioner out there, I mean it. She is truly gifted. Dr. Santelli is also a lovely human who cares deeply for all of her clients. She is now treating my 9 yr old son, 12 yr old daughter, husband, and mother-in-law! We all love, and trust Dr. Santelli.

I’ve been seeing Dr Sara for close to a decade and can not recommend her enough!

My daughter( 6yrs old) had seen Dr. Sarah for GI problems. I am extremely satisfied with the way this clinic works. Dr. Sarah requested three lab test for my daughter and we were shock with the results. She took plenty of time to explain every lab result with detail. On our 2nd appt. we walked away knowing how the body works, why wasn't her body working properly, how we could reverse these symptoms and bring everything back to balance. It is easy say than done to be honest, but Dr. Sarah and Desiree will walk along side to make sure you follow through.

Dr. Santelli has helped me for many years. As a past dancer, my old injuries pop up and she helps me manage the pain. As a dental assistant, she helped my neck and back tremendously from sitting in such a funny position all day. As a functional medicine doctor, she helped clear up my dermatitis when I did not want to take any more antibiotics. She's great!

-Rebecca A. | 04/16/24

Dr. Santelli and her staff are so warm and welcoming. I don’t like to go to the doctors often, but here I feel comfortable and valued.

I get my bloodwork done with Dr. Santelli, and her reviews are like nothing I’ve ever received from another doctor before. They are so thorough and easy for a regular guy like me to understand! What I love most is that you get all of this information conducted from the comfort of your home while still receiving quality attention from the doctor virtually.

Supplements I need will be shipped directly to me, offering convenience and ease as I’m often on the go. Thanks to Dr. Santelli and the team for offering an encouraging approach to healthcare!

Dr. Santelli has given me my life back with proper guidance. I feel amazing again in my health and that is 100% due to the impact of Dr. Santelli's work! She has been a Godsend, by caring and truly helping me find all root causes of my medical issues.

I was really sick for two weeks to the point where I was not eating. Any doctor I went to would only prescribe different medications with horrible side effects. Dr. Santelli helped me find out that I was suffering from food poisoning and after all the tests I had done, found out about conditions my primary doctor had never tested me for, like anemia. Not only have I lost weight, but I have so much more energy, an overall positive mindset, and no longer feel depressed. Dr. Santelli is heaven sent! She has not only helped me, but my whole family as well. Also, her chiropractic work is amazing!

I've had severe hip pain, neck pain, and mid-low back pain. I also needed guidance to find the root causes of my autoimmune problems. Dr. Santelli has eliminated all my pain, it is unbelievable. I am thrilled! We are making good headway into eliminating my autoimmune problems, RA, Hashimotos, candida albicans overgrowth, etc. Dr. Santelli's work has totally changed my life! I am pain free and feel 20 years younger at least! I am more grateful to Dr. Santelli than I can even express. I whole heartedly recommend making an appointment to see this doctor. She is extremely caring, well-versed in all she does, gracious, and understanding.

I've suffered from migraines since I was 3. No medications have helped and I could never find a cure. Dr. Santelli was able to find the root of my migraines, which were a list of foods I ate everyday. Since then, I haven't had a migraine episode in over 6 months, and daily life is much less painful!

I have had several misdiagnosed health issues going back as far as I can remember. The biggest and most concerning being the loss of my period 6 1/2 years ago. Dr. Santelli explains EVERYTHING -- every lab result, every test to give you a clear picture of what is happening in your body. After being on the supplements she suggested for less than a month, I had a cycle lasting 6 days! The work that she does gives me hope for my health, for my future, and for healing. I trust Dr. Santelli 1000%! She listens, has excellent patient care, and is a true healer. She is a WHOLE-istic practitioner -- not just whole body, but BODY, MIND, & SPIRIT (looking at the physical AND emotional).

I came in for respiratory and intestinal issues that the normal medical establishment had trouble solving. Dr. Santelli has been able to help me by identifying the underlining causes -- a treatment program could take effect (with positive results). Her type of work has brought such positive changes to my lifestyle. I certainly feel better, exercise more, etc.

I am so glad I found @santellifunctionalwellness.
Dr. Santelli found the source of some knee pain and helped with an impingement in my shoulder. I left feeling very loose and educated on what was going on with my body. I would highly recommend Dr. Santelli for any issues, and for general upkeep on your body. You only get one, and Dr. Santelli can definitely help you make sure it lasts a long time. Thank you, Dr. Santelli!

Dr. Sara knows her stuff! I trust her and always leave feeling better. She has really helped me with hip/QL/lower back related pain connected to autoimmune problems and playing tennis and doing Crossfit. Dr. Sara is kind and intelligent and I hope she never leaves South Pasadena!

If you are looking to improve your posture, alleviate some pain/discomfort that you have been experiencing, or even wanting to perform better in your daily activities, I would highly recommend Dr. Sara Santelli in South Pasadena for chiropractic services. I went to her for the first time today, and left with a wealth of knowledge and felt great afterward! She has an individualized and holistic approach to health with an emphasis in sports medicine. She considers the various factors that contribute to your health, looks at how your symptoms affect your ability to perform your role as an athlete, and truly understand your needs to make you better not only as an athlete but also your everyday roles. Right from the moment I walked into her office, she was approachable, relatable, and knowledgeable. After one session, I immediately noticed a difference in my posture and my movement! Thank you, Dr. Santelli, for your services! I look forward to working with you again!
