I have been seeing Dr. Carlson for years. He has gained my trust. Prior to him, I had a bad experience with another chiropractor, but Dr. Carlson made me feel at ease. When I first started seeing him, the pain was so bad in my back and neck, and I had a hard time sitting, standing, and even moving my arms. I had seen my regular doctor, then went through physical therapy, but nothing helped. The doctor said that I has osteo-arthritis in my cervical spine. He said I would be in this pain for the rest of my life, and within 15 years, my spine would fuse together. He said the only thing I can do now is pain management. I was in despair. Someone suggested a chiropractor. After my prior experience with one, I was afraid. When I first saw Dr. Carlson, I explained my fears of chiropractors, and of my physical condition that led me to him. He assured me that I would be ok, and that I would get through this. He did his first adjustment with gentleness, and had other methods of adjusting my neck, which was one of my fears. I remember being in a therapy room and just cried. I felt so hopeless. He walked into that room, and I cried to him, and he again reassured me that I would be ok. I had to go to him for adjustments, initially, about twice a week for several weeks, but he got me past the point of despair! It has been well over 10 years now, and I still go to him regularly. Not only am I fully functional, but my spine has not fused! I had even started running, and completed many races, including a full marathon! Yes, I still have issues, but he quickly works to get me back on track. He is very kind and compassionate, and his Staff are also very helpful and kind. I have been with him many years, and don't see myself going anywhere else. read more

We are very satisfied with the treatment protocol we have received at Carlson Chiropractic. I have been a patient for over a year. My husband has been a patient for over two years. I started with pain from an old injury. Vast improvements have occurred with their philosophy of minimal evasiveness to your body and let my body do it's job in healing. I've followed through with home therapies and exercises from Dr Nikolay and Dr Carlson. We highly recommend Carlson Chiropractic! read more

This office is is focused on creating a "Long" term fix and not just a quick make you feel better. When we started visiting them several years ago it was simply because my husband was in pain- Dr. Carlson has taken time to educate him on how to correct "bad" habits. He has taken time to develop a relationship with his patient- it is not just about how many people he can see in an hour. read more

Carlson Chiropractic is GREAT! When I call for an appointment, I can get in that day which is WONDERFUL! They don't keep you coming back again & again unless you need to.
