John is great! He really looks for underlying issues and makes you feel comfortable. The facilities are always clean and scheduling is easy.

I've been coming here for years for my back issues and couldn't be happier. I was never a believer in Chiropractic work previously due to poor experiences. However, Dr Cress and Huyn changed that for me. They listen, and are able to use a mix of stretching, strengthening, massage, and PT in addition to the chiropractic work that fit my needs. Highly recommend. read more

That was probably the worst massages I have ever received! John is a total amateur, not knowing the body. I had a 60 minute Groupon, my massage ended 10 minutes early, he barely used any lotion resulting is shafing against my skin. He didn't focus on ANYTHING I've specifically asked him to focus on and I walked out with a big WTF was that look on my face! Never again! Update: Wow! This place is unbelievable! I reached out years later for their infared sauna service and they turned me down because of my previous HONEST review. Just awful place read more

Dr. Cress was highly recommended to me a few years ago, and today I am the one recommending him to all my friends and family. I suffered from severe neck and back pain as a result of work-related poor posture for many years. Dr. Cress (and his amazing crew) had me feeling better and stronger after just my first visit. They are always accommodating, so I can schedule a follow up appointment as needed. My visits are covered by insurance with no issues. ALSO, if you're looking for a great massage therapist in the area, call ARC! read more

Dr. Cress is simply the best! I have been a patient of his for about 1.5 years and after having been to a few chiropractors in the area, Dr. Cress has helped manage my migraines better than anyone else. He listened to my symptoms and took the time to figure out what works best for me. He also gave me good tips of stretches and treatment to do at home that helped me as well. I suffer from allergies and sinus headaches and he was able to minimize the symptoms of those for me. As of today, my migraines have reduced drastically and I rarely get them anymore!!! Not only is he incredibly talented and experienced in his practice, Dr. Cress has a great personality and can always brighten your day! It's clear that he genuinely cares about his patients and their overall health and well being and takes the time to get to know them as people. Dr. Cress goes above and beyond to be available for his patients and to work with their schedules, even for last minute appointments. I'm so glad to have found him!!! read more

Great doctor! I've had back pain for a couple years and been through a lot of physical therapy, but ever since I've seen Dr. Cress, the pain has disappeared. His help improved my basketball game more than ever. From sitting on the bench, to playing starter thanks to Dr. Cress. Today back pain is non existent to me. Great environment, great people, and works with my schedule. read more

ARC Chiropractic - Chiropractors Near Me - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

I found ARC Chiropractic by luck. From the very first phone call, Dr. Cress was very helpful and made me feel comfortable to come in for acupuncture. I am so impressed with his knowledge and his willingness to help patients. Not only did he help me with my numbness in my right hand but he's giving me guidance on the proper form when I work out with weights. I would highly recommend him to anyone! The staff and the office is very welcoming too! read more

Dr. Cress is just amazing. He is honestly the best at what he does. Hands down, better than ChiroOne and NorthShore. I haven't felt this good in over 2yrs of chronic pain after my injury. Thanks Doc !!!!!!! read more

ARC Chiropractic - Fixed my back !!! - Chiropractors Near Me - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

Dr. Cress is a great guy! I've had the pleasure of working with him on many occasions. His office is very nice and serene. Definitely relaxing for your visit. He runs a non-profit color run every year where 100% of the proceeds go to charity. It's a huge event and a great contribution to the community. I'm continually impressed with his philanthropy. I would definitely recommend him. read more

My husband went first and talked highly of Dr Cress and his staff. As I had pain for many months and did nothing about it, I decided to give it a shot. Dr Cress listened, gave me advices on stretching exercice and within a couple of sessions, my pains were gone. I keep going less frequently and more as "maintenance" and I do feel the benefice. Dr Cress is going a great job and his staff is very qualified and very professional. read more

I've been having low back pain for as long as I can remember. I work for a manual job in public works and image we been on my feet all day or pushing and pulling sometimes heavy payloads my back started to hurt. I finally decide to do something about it. I went on yelp to see who was close to me and had good reviews and I found Dr Cress. Yet if I Reading store so I thought I would give it a shot. I was hesitant because you hear something was at work some people say it doesn't and I related this to Dr. Cress. He said he would do an exam tell me what He thought the injury was and his treatment plan. I've always said that what you go to chiropractor you always have to go to the chiropractor and you go 30 times. He told me four or five visits, some stretching , and ART and that would be it. He stretched out my bag like it's never been stretched before and immediately I had relief. He told me just muscle balance was the cause of my pain and my injury and showed me how to stretch on my own to prevent it from coming back. But a year later I ran into Dr. Cress at a fundraiser and I told my back isn't hurting ever since I saw him. So I asked what he thought about me coming in once a month for wellness. He said that was my call and he would appreciate the business but no need to see him if I wasn't in pain. That might not be the best money making statement but it was an honest one. And that is why I continue to refer and speak about Dr Cress. He's honest and doesn't great work. Highly recommend. read more

I arrived at the location to learn that the chiropractor had my appointment time wrong. After arguing with me for several minutes, he admitted his error. I chose not to reschedule based upon his mistake. Whether he chose to refuse to treat me based upon other patients' schedule or the fact that my insurance is Medicare, the end result was the same. The scheduling app claims that he does accept Medicare. I did not receive information to the contrary until just prior to my appointment time. Next, he recommended a chiropractor who he said accepts Medicare. The reviews for that individual were particularly negative that included claims of groping and changing into a hospital gown which is not needed for chiropractor treatment. I'd recommend going elsewhere in both cases. read more

Dr. Cress and his staff are welcoming, patient, knowledgeable and great to work with. I highly recommend them! He won't just adjust you, he takes the time to show you and explain what is going on. By far one of the best experiences I have had! read more

There's NOTHING better than a good chiropractor. I know what you're thinking: what about deep dish pizza or Oberweiss ice cream? Sure, those are great, but Dr. Cress and the staff at ARC Chiropractic are amazing. When I first called the office, Mimi picked up the phone and I got a great positive vibe right away. When I arrived at my first appointment, it was clear that those positive vibes continue through the whole office. Dr. Cress examined me and explained why I was experiencing pain and the plan to get rid of it. His enthusiasm and positivity are infectious. He's extremely knowledgeable and always gave my questions they time they needed to be answered fully. I would definitely recommend Dr. Cress and ARC Chiropractic to anyone looking to improve their quality of life. read more

I have been suffering from tendonitis for a long time. I went to different doctors and all they gave me were anti-inflammatory medicine or they wanted to send me to physical therapy but I never saw results. I decided to take matters into my own hands and try acupuncture, that is when I found Dr. Cress. When I first met Dr. Cress I told him my issue and that I wanted to try acupuncture and right away he said "nope, acupuncture alone will not work for you" he was so honest and straightforward and I appreciated that. He does a massage therapy along with acupuncture and just on my first visit, I saw great improvement. I can now use my arm normally where before I couldn't even lift it. I have been with him for a month and I don't think he will be able to get rid of me as a patient. He knows his stuff and I trust him with other issues I may be having. In one of my visits, I mentioned that I have had RLS for over 10 years and he told me to try a specific supplement. I kid you not when I tell you that my symptoms have improved considerably. I don't get it, why has no one ever told me what he told me in 1 or 2 visits? I highly recommend ARC Chiropractic and the staff are friendly too, including Dr. Cress precious dog that goes to work with him every day. read more

The I's have it! The best! I was traveling during the holidays and had severe back pain after sleeping. It was Christmas day the pain got bad. I started calling around and was lucky enough to get Dr Cress on the phone the day after. He fit me in and I went over. After 5 min of stretching me I already felt 80% better but then I got a great adjustment. But not only did he help me, he showed me on a skeleton the problem and the cure. He showed me exercises to do at home and sent me on my way feeling 100%. I was so grateful since I had to fly home that night. I only wish I had care like that where I am from. I recommend highly! read more

I had back and knee pain that lasted a long time. I played volleyball and badminton that overused my body. I was recommended by a good friend to consult with Dr. Cress. He understood my problems and suggested treatment plans, he's very confident that I won't have pain anymore after 2-3 months. I saw him twice a week and after about 2 months, I felt much better. Dr Cress also taught me how to exercise and stretch, and they are very useful. I feel that Dr Cress always goes above and beyond to help his patients. He makes sure that we get better and he's very flexible too. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Even though you don't have pain now, if you learn from him how to stretch and exercise at home, you will be healthy and happy all the time. Enjoy life and stay healthy always. read more

This place came highly recommended by a friend after he noticed that I was having significant back pain. I was optimistic, but to no avail. After my second visit my pain increased significantly and got so bad I went to an immediate care center for pain medication. During my next visit, I explained to Dr. Cress how bad my pain had gotten after the previous visit and he didn't even flinch and gave me the exact same "treatment" I received the previous visit. The same modalities that increased my pain significantly. During each of my visits, Dr. Cress spent about 95% of the time telling me how awesome and amazing he is (some of it inappropriately so). And although I may have spoken the other 5%, I feel like he didn't listen to me at all, especially when I tried to explain how much pain I was in. I ultimately found a chiropractor that helped relieve my symptoms, and Dr. Cress's diagnosis was completely wrong. I think if he was a better listener, he may have seen that his first thought was wrong and tried some other treatments, but he was too busy talking about himself. read more

Well to be honest, I'm not even sure if Dr. Cress needs more reviews since they have so many great reviews already. :p But here is my review. So I had the back pain after working out too hard at the gym about 3 years ago. And I manage 2 Restaurant at the same time. So you can imagine how my back was being tortured constantly. After I went 2 different 'okay' Chiropractic, I wasn't crazy about Chiropractors. But around last winter, my back was hurting really really bad while I was doing some paper work at the local starbucks. I was going through so much pain just sitting there. so I started to yelp some Chiropractic around me. And looking at so many great reviews at ARC, I just had to give it a go. So thankfully I've got to make appointment with-in about 2-3 hours window. And as other reviews said, Dr. Cress is just amazing. I felt the relief as soon as he did his miracle work and with-in a few days, I was in so much better place. So after one session Dr. Cress told me I only need to come in for maybe 2 or 3 more times, but after seeing the amazing result I told Dr. Cress that I have to come in regularly. So now, I try to go see him at LEAST once a month. Obviously, Dr. Cress's Chiropractic skill is beyond amazing but not just that, He is very friendly and also very helpful. now when I say "Friendly" I'm not talking about some Doctors just trying to be nice to you and be polite. Dr. Cress is beyond anything like that. He is genuinely and naturally super nice and also super fun. I've sent my little sister to Dr. Cress when she had a little problem with her wrist, so what more can I say? I've took some of his business cards and I gave out to my friends just in case they need a good Chiropractor. And all of his staffs are super super nice too. ;) I'm usually not crazy about doing reviews on yelp but I just had to leave this review for Dr. Cress and ARC. I could go on and on about how amazing he is. but if you are a reading this and if you are looking for a Chiropractor, just don't look further and give him a call. I'm leaving this review as I'm about to go see Dr. Cress about my shoulder problem ( I'm very good at hurting myself while working out lol ). read more

This review is extremely past due. I found Arc Chiropractic last winter on Groupon. I had a horrible shoulder pain. It was so bad that I could not even sleep at night. I have tried everything I could possibly think of. After about 4 weeks of dealing with this pain, I was going though Groupon just to see what is there and ran into a deal for Arc Chiropractic. I bought a voucher for some Acupuncture, and called to see when I could be scheduled in. Since I was in pain, Dr Cress squeezed me in the same day. Talking to him for a couple minutes to let him know what is happening he knew right away what the problem was. Of course acupuncture did not solve the pain on the spot, but within a day or 2 of visiting him, I started seeing a huge improvement. I am very grateful I ran into his Groupon and he was able to help! I would definitely recommend coming here. read more

When my son was in High School he suffered from a pretty serious hamstring injury during his winter track season. Dr. Cress is very professional, down to earth and took great care of my son. Even my son (17 yo at that time) enjoyed going and speaks very highly of him. How often do you hear a young person praising anything medical related. Now let's fast forward to beginning of January 2014. I was suffering from "Tennis" elbow pain for a long time. I know there is a more fancy name for this but I cannot pronounce it :-) Within three weeks Dr. Cress had me fixed. Even now almost 5 months later I have no pain. I even hit the weights hard at the gym and I'm cool. Fact is that I am giving a lot of second thought as to even going back to my family physician as I would prefer to hear Dr. Cress opinion first. Oh yes may I also say that he actually listens to you instead of trying to rush you out of office and move onto next patient. Also, I have had two massages already and the Massage Therapist is awesome. She really knows what she is doing and is very professional. I am a devoted ARC Chiro patient. read more

Dr. Cress is awesome!!! I have been through quite a few chiropractors over the years....but have not been satisfied with results. I'll admit that I am a bit of a "tough and picky" patient with my father being a chiropractor out of state, I am so thrilled to have found Dr. Cress!! My neck and back always are feeling great after a visit to his office. read more

Just wanted to say thank you for the excellent care and service - I was in bad shape and could hardly sleep because of back pain that flared up from moving furniture. I have a physical job and had to be at work on Monday - Dr. Cress was able to squeeze me in on Tuesday morning and I can't believe how much better I am today. I was able to sleep all night - I couldn't even turn over without incredible pain the 2 nights before. I got an adjustment, stretched, and a massage and I couldn't be happier. I've put off getting this taken care of when it has happened in the past. Never again! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! read more

Awesome new office and great care! I've had low back pain for several years and never really got complete relief until I met Dr. Cress. He really took time to understand my condition and come up with a treatment plan that works for me. If I could sum up Dr. Cress in one word, it would be "Professional". He asks questions, gets to know your specific circumstances, explains everything in plain English, and treats you as an individual, not like a factory cranking our patients. In my case, I was able to feel a huge improvement after the first visit. Just a few more treatments, and I was back to normal. In addition to treatment, Dr. Cress is very knowledgeable when it comes to prevention and overall health. By combining several of his techniques (stretching, exercise, etc.), I've been able to minimize further injury to my back. Lastly, his office is clean and comfortable, which goes a long way when it comes to having a positive outcome. You really feel welcome when you come in, and know that you can relax and focus on the treatment. read more

I had a back pain and I've been going to ARC for acupuncture treatments and an adjustment for couple of weeks. After a few visits the pain was gone. I highly recommend Dr. Cress. He is friendly and nice. He genuinely cares about his patients and goes above and beyond to help them feel better. The atmosphere in the office is very inviting and relaxing! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Cress for several years now from his former Arlington Heights location to his new Buffalo Grove location. In addition to his vast and holistic knowledge of chiropractic practice, his personable, friendly, and approachable manner makes the office visits enjoyable. I originally visited him for lower back pain (which he virtually eliminated) and have moved toward reducing or eliminating the return of it through "active" care with personalized care and training from Dr. Cress. I would highly recommend him and his staff for those looking for great care. I particularly like the quote from Thomas Edison on his wall, "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." Dr. Cress embodies this. read more

I was told to wear a camisole to my first appointment. I've been to many chiropractors and this has never been a requirement, and I wasn't even asked if I was comfortable wearing a camisole. This very inappropriate demand (from the chiropractor himself) made me feel extremely uncomfortable. I canceled the appointment. read more

I found ARC chiropractic by chance on Groupon and brought massage voucher on Groupon. It was very easy to book an appointment and the lady was so polite. Today I went for the massage, it was really good and the massage therapist was experienced and listen to what I say. I have chronic back pain with painful muscle knots all over my back. I told the massage therapist about it and he paid extra attention to my problem and put right pressure to loosen those muscle knots. I am looking forward to go again for more massages. I have gone to other massage places and trust me ARC is one of the best I found till date. I am planning to see Dr Cress in my future visit for acupuncture and really hope with the treatments I could finally come out of back pain issues. read more

Dr cress is a very caring and knowledgeable doc. I had a lot of pain in my lower back and could barely walk or sit. Dr cress provided effective treatment which has helped me ease the pain and get back to my normal life, and above all he's a real down to earth kind a guy patients can feel comfortable talking to. I've tried out lots of different chiropractor places for my lower back problem, but dr. Cress is the one I've found to be most trustworthy and I've been going here consistently since my first visit. Highly recommend. read more

Dr. Cress is phenomenal! He truly understand the body. His treatment plan was perfectly customized for my needs. He didn't just stick to one path on my wellness; but took elements from other treatments to help me feel better than I have in a long time. Dr. Cress is not only knowledgeable but incredibly kind, and flexible. On a certain day my lower back would not cooperate with me. I called Dr. Cress, he had a busy schedule but he was willing try to fit me in, just to make sure I was doing my treatment plan correctly. Dr. Cress is the epitome of a great Doctor who is willing to go above and beyond for the sake of your wellness and not just your money. I highly recommend him! read more

Got rear ended months ago. Like a moron it didn't occur to me that my lower back problems could be from that accident. Dr Cress took the time to explain why I was hurting so badly from intangible injuries. Guess filling out intake paperwork was worth my time. He didn't give me the overly sophisticated explanation and then send me an overly sophisticated bill. I heard a few biology terms I haven't heard since high school and then he patiently explained in laymans terms what it all meant. I am a skeptic at heart and expect to be shortchanged. I was given a fair and simple assessment without pressure of treatment programs and snake oils. I can't say enough how nice it was to talk to a human being with a degree and be heard. It is 3.5 months later and I am 100%. I went weekly at first and was given exercises to do at home. I wanted an MRI I was in so much pain but he calmed my nerves and his explanation was balanced and made sense so I stayed the course. He had me stretching at home and wanted to see me biweekly towards the end of treatment. I can't say enough how good a decision I made with Yelp's help in going to ARC Chiropractic. This is the place to go PERIOD!!!! Fair honest and up front. read more

John has been helping my family and me for over 2 years, and we can't say enough about the care he gives. Dr. Cress does more traditional care for me, treating back pain and trying to both alleviate the pain and to figure out a workable system of stretching and strengthening to keep me out of his office. As a busy, working mom, it's nice to be able to have a no-nonsense approach to keeping my back healthy and back in action. John really came through for our family when my daughter was having some extreme anxiety/panic attacks. He understands and is a huge proponent of the mind-body connection and talked with her, helped her with strategies for winding down when she felt a migraine/tension headache coming on, and really got her to understand how she could better help herself. Though he did not adjust her, he helped her to work through loosening up the tightness in her shoulders and to get back to being a kid! You'll be in good hands with John! read more
