Health Archives • Optimized Wellness Center

I began my journey at Optimized Wellness Center under the care of Dr. Tim six months ago, grappling with long-standing fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. Dr. Tim’s approach was different from any healthcare experience I’ve encountered. During our initial consultation, he spent over an hour just understanding my medical history and lifestyle. Each subsequent session has included a mix of PEMF therapy and chiropractic adjustments, each tailored to my body’s needs that day. What stands out is Dr. Tim’s dedication to not just treating but educating his patients. He’s explained every aspect of my treatment plan, from the science behind PEMF to the expected outcomes. I’ve noticed a significant reduction in my daily pain and an improvement in my energy levels. Dr. Tim has given me a new lease on life, and I cannot recommend Optimized Wellness Center enough for anyone struggling with similar conditions.

I’ve suffered from chronic back pain for over a decade and seen numerous chiropractors with little relief. Discovering Dr. Tim at Optimized Wellness Center has been a turning point. His comprehensive approach, especially the shockwave therapy, has significantly reduced my pain and improved my mobility. It’s more than care; it’s a partnership in health.

I’ve had a lack of mobility in my lumbar, and trouble building my abdominal muscles for 20+ years due to a motorcycle accident and pelvic fracture, and have sought treatment from several PTs over the years. I also have a chronic shoulder injury and neck pain that seemed to be getting worse with traditional PT. Dr. Tim asked a lot of questions, and I feel like he treated my entire body, instead of just a piece. He was very present during treatment, and I appreciated his bedside manner and ability to seamlessly multitask. After a few sessions, I noticed more mobility and less pain in my lumbar spine, and more strength in my abdominal muscles. After 20 years, this came a surprise. I also noticed less pain in my shoulder and neck. For the first time in over a year, I have entire days in which the pain doesn’t bother me enough to notice. My conditions are chronic, and I’m not ultimately looking for a cure. Dr. Tim has absolutely helped me to manage my injuries more effectively though. As someone with physical issues that have been tricky to pinpoint and effectively treat, I highly recommend reaching out to Optimized Wellness.

I started seeing Dr. Tim Heath just a few months ago and my health has improved dramatically! He is very knowledgeable on my condition and the many treatment options. I found him to be attentive, thoughtful, patient and affordable. Looking forward to continuing my health journey at Optimized Wellness Center and would strongly recommend Tim to anyone looking for functional medicine care.

I had an exceptional first visit with Dr. Tim at Optimized Wellness Center. He is not only knowledgeable but also exceedingly patient, taking the time to explain each observation in detail. Dr. Tim conducted a comprehensive range of examinations and helped me understand the interconnectedness of different body parts and their impacts on my health. The visit was truly eye-opening; he even conducted a brief test that pinpointed a brain-related issue causing the unexplainable balance problems I’ve experienced all my life. The appointment was both fun and educational—I learned a lot from him and look forward to our next steps.

Optimized Wellness Center and Dr. Tim Heath have been instrumental in my journey to optimal health. I initially sought treatment for chronic pain and fatigue, and Dr. Heath’s expertise in functional medicine provided the personalized solutions I needed. Through therapies like hydrogen therapy and functional neurology exercises, I’ve experienced significant improvements in my overall well-being. Highly recommend to anyone seeking holistic care!

Dr Tim is an excellent provider who takes his time to evaluate how he can best support your needs as a patient. I come from a chiropractic background family with a long history of understanding how taking care of your body is vital in health and wellness. He has a customized approach to chiropractic care and really works hard to give support and relief to all those who can benefit from his skill as a provider. I highly recommend Dr Tim if you are seeking excellent care from a skilled chiropractor and caring person. He even took care of me while I was pregnant and now even looks after our two daughters who are three and five years old.

I never knew how effective hydrogen therapy could be until I met Dr. Tim. His use of this cutting-edge treatment has significantly improved my chronic inflammation and pain. This isn’t just healthcare; it’s a life enhancement.

Its hard to find a doctor who listens, understands, takes in new information, experiments, improvises, stays up to date with research, has good bedside manner, and a sense of humor. Really, really hard. When you do find that, you leave a google review with 5 stars. That’s what I’m doing right now. What you should do is a book an appointment at the Optimized Wellness Center, if you want to optimize your wellness. Because that’s what will happen.

Dr. Heath is like the rock star of the medical world – talented, charismatic, and always ready to perform a healing riff on whatever ails you! I have been so impressed with his ability to discern what is going on, discuss options of care to address my ailments and take the time to get me progressively better and better each time I come in. I have been to so many chiropractors before, but never found one that has as much functional medicine knowledge, and innovative therapies available. His knowledge is deep and his skills are vast. Dr Heath is an expert in all things functional medicine. During my care with Dr Heath, we have used ozone therapy, cold laser, and PEMF. Originally, I had no idea what these things were, but have seen them measurably improve my health.

Dr. Tim is great. He actually listens and works with you to plan your healing path. He also lets you wander a bit to make your own discoveries and learnings, The ideal health partner.

This was my first time at a chiropractors office and it wont be my last! Dr. Tim has such a warm presence and is very knowledgeable so I felt at ease with the whole process. He did an assessment at first and then proceeded with the adjustment. Once the adjustment was done, immediately I felt the difference and tension leave my body. I left his office feeling brand new. Highly recommend visiting Dr.Tim. Thank you Dr. Tim for the life changing experience.

Dr. Tim is an incredible chiropractor. He takes the time to thoroughly explain adjustments and how different exercises can help alleviate pain. He has given me lists of personalized exercises for me to to which helps me keep pain under control in between sessions. He is friendly and easy to talk to, making the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable. After struggling with severe back and neck problems for five years following a car accident, I’m amazed that in just three months, he’s managed to help me feel healthy again. I’m excited to continue my sessions with him. If you’re looking for an excellent chiropractor who genuinely cares about your well being I would highly recommend Dr. Tim.

As someone who has been receiving chiropractic care for over 35 years of my life I cannot recommend Dr Tim Heath DC enough!!! I strongly endorse Dr Tim and his practice Optimized Wellness Center. I have seen several chiropractors in Alameda and he is by far the best there is, hands down. Dr. Tim listens to you, he truly cares about you as a patient and wants the best outcome for you. He takes time to assess the whole person and evaluate what is going on in your body. He is extremely intelligent and well studied and an advocate for his patients and his community. I truly cannot recommend Dr. Tim Heath enough. What are you waiting for??? Call the office today and start feeling better!!

Dr. Tim always has amazing guidance and advice. He’s a wealth of knowledge, very kind, patient and supportive. Everything I look for in someone helping me live my best life!!

Dr. Tim is doing a terrific job helping me through with my Covid related pneumonia. We’re on day 26 today. His telemedicine visits and ozone therapy treatments have been a great help and have kept me out of the hospital. The Covid protocol for my meals and supplements have kept my erratic symptoms manageable and the lab work has targeted my vitamin deficiencies. I appreciate him going above and beyond to get me the equipment and treatment I need whilst stuck in quarantine.

I have been receiving chiropractic care for 30 years. Seeing Tim offered me the opportunity to receive a neurological assessment which led to the excellent adjustments and improvement in various parts of my body/system experience. There was a beautiful logic to the treatment. Tim was sensitive. He checked in with me throughout and slowed down/stopped when I needed time to integrate what he had done. Being a deeply somatically sensitive person, as well as a CMT, it feels important to understand as much as I can what is happening during the session. Tim was extremely clear with me. I felt both attuned to as well as included in the treatment. I look forward to more!

I was suffering from lower back pain for 5 years. I had pain going down my leg and difficulty walking. I was also suffering from knee and foot pain and severe neck pain. My pain was so severe that I was on pain and anti inflammatory meds (Vicodin, Ibuprofen). I was treated by other Chiropractors and I they did not take the time to get to know why I was hurting. I would just get a quick regular adjustment and they would send me on my way. Tim took time to get to know me, for example: he walked with me outside to see how I was walking, he wanted to see how I sat in a chair and wanted to know how I set my chair at home and he also gave me bed recommendations; all of his recommendations were extremely helpful. I think Tim’s personal approach helped me get over any doubts I had about treatment. I think its natural to apprehension and questions when dealing with new information regarding health and wellness. Before Tim introduces something he thinks may be helpful he always educates you on the subject. Even when he does minor adjustments he always asks for permission and explains what and why he is doing during the treatment session. I felt at ease during my fist treatment. The office doesn’t feel clinical. Its very open and has a welcoming vibe. The front office staff was very friendly and seemed genuinely interested in how I was feeling. I also liked the upbeat music that was playing. Additionally, I loved the fact that they don’t leave me waiting. A 12:00 appointment really means a 12:00 appointment!!! After my first treatment I felt an overall reduction of pain in my lower back. Tim called and checked up on me after my treatment which I thought was very professional. After roughly 90 days I was able to start decreasing my meds and after about a year I was completely off meds. Tim encouraged me to do exercises and stretches on my own. After about a year I was pain free and healed. I still see Tim quarterly for adjustments but its just for maintenance because I no longer require adjustments for pain reduction. I would totally recommend Optimized Wellness Center for anyone looking to truly heal and learn to heal themselves. I was a in debilitating pain and Optimized Wellness Center helped me get back on my feet.

As a nurse, I was stressed out and burned out from having to work demanding 12-hour shifts, as well as, dealing with the stress of commute traffic. I suffered from fatigue, lack of focus, insomnia, hair loss, brittle nails and weight gain. On my own, I was experimenting with different nutritional supplements and attempting to treat the unknown culprit that was robbing me of my health. Meanwhile my primary MD would only order the bare minimum lab testing which left me feeling frustrated with traditional medicine. Finally fed up with living with brain fog and exhaustion I went in search of Naturopathic medicine for help.
My initial intake appointments with Optimized Wellness were great but then I became skeptical due to changes in the clinical staff involved in my care. My concerns were unfounded because Dr. Tim is very knowledgeable in functional medicine and has been very thorough in creating a personalized care plan based on my health history and the extensive clinical lab results. He’s passionate about helping his patients achieve optimal health and I trust him as my clinician.
That was in August and now 6 months later … it’s like someone turned the lights on. I’ve modified my diet, completed two rounds of detox treatments and ionic foot baths along with adding supplements to correct nutritional deficiencies and control my glucose levels. I feel reenergized and focused. I’m sleeping better and beginning to finally lose weight. I know that I’m on the right track to regaining my life and vitality back. Thank you, Dr. Tim and Optimized Wellness Center

Dr. Tim did a great job! I’m a firefighter at the Lightning complex and he came to our camp to do adjustments – at the time we needed it the most. Thanks Dr. Tim!

What a nice and friendly office! No problem parking, either. Dr. Tim is kind, patient, and listens very carefully to each patient’s concerns, and then he remembers it all. Plus the receptionist is sweet and kind, too. I always feel like I can take the time I need, that nobody is rushing me. I highly recommend trying Optimized Wellness Center.

Was my first time going to a chiropractor was kinda scared but Dr. Tim was really good. Knows what he’s doing. Definitely will be coming back. Will recommend to anyone with a bad back.

My life changed 3 years ago with a diagnosis of lupus but Dr. Heath changed it again from the very first interview with him. I’ve been seeing him for four months and I can’t recommend him enough. I had several specialist before finding him and I can confidently say no one has made this much progress with my condition. His approach is realistic but enthusiastic and he gives you a clear explanation of your condition and his plan to treat it, with plenty of information that make you feel like you’re actually part of the process (plus, he keeps detailed record of every step on file). He’s tried something new at many of the appointments and every single thing has provided me with some level of relief or improvement. With my condition every little thing counts! Him and his staff are kind and compassionate (his receptionist Hope gives some great advice and always makes you feel welcome as soon as you walk in) I don’t even mind the commute from Richmond, Oakland or Berkeley to see him every week. It’s time and travel well worth it. Every technique, supplement or device he’s used or recommended has medical basis and I can say that after years of desperately trying I’m finally seeing and feeling progress in alleviating my pain and working on my recovery. I feel like I’m getting my life back. Even if you’re just thinking about it, go to the interview! See it and feel it for yourself!

Dr.Tim is amazing ! He is very informative and has so many services available to his customers!

Went to visit Dr Tim to find out more about staying healthy. It was a very beautifully and clean office with many good health options. But most importantly, Dr. Tim was knowledgeable about chiropractic studies and how taking your annual blood test results to the next level. Dr Tim can educate you on how to keep your body fit , your body balanced, and how to achieve good annual blood work results.This is great place for staying healthy, preparing for a marathon, or to help get from an body injury.

I am incredibly impressed with Dr. Tim’s kindness, knowledge, professionalism, and effective treatments. He has helped me work through some structural issues I have had for over a decade, with significant results. As a healthcare professional myself, I understand the importance of patient care and it is so refreshing to experience the care I have received from Dr. Tim. I look forward to recommending him to all of my patients. He is now my favorite Chiropractor!

Dr. Heath was volunteering his time at the basecamp for the Camp Fire in butte county. He had an awesome set up for free adjustments in the front of camp. We took him up on the offer and boy did it feel great! After some hard hours on the fireline it was much needed and appreciated.

As a health care provider myself, I can tell you- these two are the real deal. If I lived in the east bay, I would totally see these doctors for my health issues. They can treat pretty much any and every health issue. If you live in the east bay, do yourself a favor and stop by this clinic for your health issues.

They measure antioxidants here at this wellness center. How cool is that? the space is elegantly designed, handsome and inviting. There are two identical treatment rooms. Family units are welcome. They use high technology and make measurements to make a baseline of the clients health and monitor it often. There is plenty of parking. Yay!
