I've been coming here for almost a year now and it has become such a part of my routine! I originally came with pretty severe neck pain likely from hours sitting at a desk each day. I began working with Dr. Jon and the results have been incredible! I've been getting less headaches, feel looser, and pay better attention to when I start slipping again with my posture at work. After a great adjustment, you get to spent some time on the roller tables which is an added relaxation bonus. I recommend coming here wholeheartedly! read more

Sweeney Chiropractic - Building exterior - Chiropractors Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Best chiropractor! Entire office is so kind and welcoming! They go the extra mile in care!

Amazing friendly staff, excellent Dr. Ive had several back surgeries so was timid to go to a chiropractor but was in so much pain I decided to go. He was thorough in evaluating my condition and explained where the pain was coming from, discussed what he recommended and was gentle but very effective in helping my pain. They are very experienced in patients that have had back surgeries and complicated issues. I highly recommend! read more

From my Facebook post two years ago today (and it still applies today): "My chiropractor appointment yesterday was most enlightening. Dr. Jim Sweeney is rated at the top of Nashville's various lists of best in this field; that, plus my first few minutes with him, convinced me I found the right guy. The headline news is that my X-rays, which I looked at with him, showed a fusion of vertebrae from the lower/middle part of my neck down to below the shoulder blades. This has already limited my flexibility in terms of swiveling my head left and right. While not an immediate inconvenience, this condition will worsen to the point that neck surgery will likely be needed down the road, unless treatment begins now. "Also, the X-ray showed a definite crescent-moon curvature in my spine below these fused vertebrae. This scoliosis has been with me for quite some time, though undiagnosed as I haven't seen a specialist in more than 30 years. Dr. Jim will work on this over the next month or so, with the goal of not toward correcting this problem -- it's too late for that -- but stopping its progress and maximizing flexibility through physical therapy that I can do on my own. "He also snapped my neck, first time I've had that done in decades. The immediate aftermath was a pleasurable looseness & a hiatus from the 'snap-crackle-pop' I've been hearing for several months whenever move my head in a circle or side to side. After a few hours the sounds and some degree of pain returned, but I can tell I'm on a positive path here. Next appointment is tomorrow." read more

This is the best chiropractor in Nashville! If you're looking for the best you found it. I have had neck issues (reverse curve) for almost 10 years. I've been to many chiropractors but none of them seemed to be able to solve the issue. When I saw that Dr. Jim offered dry needling I was interested in trying a different approach. At the moment I am exercising regularly and my neck can often feel very pinched and sore after working out. Since I've been seeing Dr. Jim the pain is gone! Besides the fact that dry needling is really effective, Dr. Jim is also the best adjuster I've ever had. Other chiropractors I've gone to seem like they only get 60% of the cracks in my neck and back. It's such a different experience to feel 100% of the pressure in your neck and back be released. I'm so grateful that I did my research and landed on the right chiropractor. For the first time I feel confident that the chronic pain issues I've been facing can truly be eliminated. read more

I am so happy I found Sweeney Chiropractic on Yelp. The office staff are so friendly and Dr. Jon is so uplifting, outgoing, super friendly and all around amazing! I just had my second visit and I have already had so much relief with my lower back pain. Wow. Thank you so much Dr. Jon and I can't wait to continue with my healing. read more

Prior to Dr. Sweeney I could not walk, stand, or even sit without pain and every step I took felt like hot pins piercing my lower back. The two specialist I saw told me that I needed surgery however; neither one could guarantee that I would fully recover without zero pain or resume my active lifestyle. When I mentioned to them that I was going to try a Chiropractor, they told me that I would be wasting my time, money, and I would be back in a few weeks for surgery. Dr. Sweeney was able to see me the following day, he did a consultation, X-rays, and developed a treatment plan. He rest assured my nerves that I had a bulging disk and it could be fixed with intensive therapy. Well that was three years ago and to this day I have no regrets. Three years later I returned to get treated for an agonizing crook in my neck and lower back discomfort. I walked in to a remodeled office and greeted by two lovely ladies with smiling faces. I was surprised Dr. Sweeney remembered me after all those years and welcomed me back with open arms. My adjustment took approximately 10 minutes and when he was done I felt much better. I could walk and move without any discomfort. Dr. Sweeney's staff then escorted me to my favorite part THE ROLLING MASSAGE TABLE!!!!!! Electrodes were placed on my lower back, I laid down, placed a pillow under my knees, and closed my eyes. The room is tranquil that it often puts me to sleep. I feel so relaxed afterwards. I have never had a doctor so caring, professional, knowledgable, dedicated, and who has the best bedside manners as Dr. Jim Sweeney. I will always be grateful for the great work he and his staff has done for me. He is absolutely the best! read more

Sweeney Chiropractic - Front office- for quick and friendly service. - Chiropractors Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Dr. Sweeney is the best chiropractor I have ever seen. He genuinely cares for his patients. Omg, the first time I ever step foot inside his clinic was on a rainy Saturday in February of this year. He was the only chiropractor open on Saturday's and I was having severe neck pain. My husband found his clinic info online and insisted that we walk-in. Otherwise, I probably would have never known of his clinic or found him. Dr. Sweeney immediately recognized the source of my issue/pain. He was able to explain the source of my issue in such vivid and understandable terms. Upon adjusting my neck, I felt like someone flipped a switch and the pain/pressure rushed out of my body like a tidal wave. I was almost in disbelief because my two day headache ceased in that instant. I walked around singing his praises all day. I will continue to be Dr. Sweeney's patient. It also helps that Becca, Mama Sweeney and Molly make this place feel so warm and inviting. They really make you feel like you're apart of their family. FYI- Dr. Sweeney is the laid back and chill type which makes my family love coming here even more. read more

I've been going to chiropractors for a long time and most chiros just want to turn and burn your appointment to make money and they don't spend the proper time needed to make sure you are getting enough care or the right care. This guy takes the cake. He is the shit. He's the best chiro I've ever had. He spends time with you to make sure you get the care you need. He has a passion for it and it shows. I had a pinched nerve in my neck after a concussion and he fixed me right up. He's also funny as hell and is a pleasure to be around. His staff is also incredible and very nice. Recommend him 100%. He is the best. Don't waste your money anywhere else. ------------------------ UPDATE Been seeing Jim for a year now. He is the fucking shit. read more

Dr Jim has worked wonders for me. After being out in an ambulance and taken to Centennial for severe neck pain, they wanted me to go to physical therapy. Not cheap at all! I went to Dr Jim and after just a few corrections with tinge and acupuncture, I haven't had the pain again. Now I go only when I need to. Don't look anywhere else. This is the place! read more

Great Doctor very down to earth. He made the experience pleasurable I will be going back again soon.

They legitimately amazing. They do work that actually makes a difference for me in my everyday life and you don't get that often. The lovely three people that handle reception work are always so kind and somehow always remember everything about you; Brandon checked me in without asking my name the SECOND time I ever went there so they genuinely make you feel like you're part of a little family. I worked with Jim and I only met his brother (the other chiropractor here) once but even so I know for a fact they are both so sweet! Jim really have it to me straight, told exactly what I should do to get better and stay better. I didn't argue because he told me every reason he had for recommending what he did, so I understood what I had to do to feel better. After two months of doing what I was told to, I started waking up everyday without a lick of pain in my lower back and shoulder blades! Moral of the story... they're awesome! read more

This is by far one of the best places I have been to since living in Nashville (which I'm not a fan of, but they may have converted me. Lol). From the time I walked in the door I was greeted with lots of energy and positive attitudes from the receptionist, mom, and dog. The atmosphere in itself actually made me want to sit there and just hangout, but seeing that the only problem I had was that they unfortunately are Michigan fans and I'll have to work hard to convert that type of behavior to Michigan State University sooner or later . Other than that one issue I enjoyed every single person in the office... I would definitely suggest a bigger space. Too good of an atmosphere for the little space, but that's not a complaint. Definitely a good family environment. #Spartanfan4life read more

Dr Jon is amazing!!! I started seeing him around 30 weeks pregnant and he has done wonders for my body to stay comfortable during this last trimester (wish I would of gone sooner in my pregnancy). The staff is so amazing, friendly and caring! They work with my crazy schedule and always get me in right when needed even if it is last minute! Dr Jon is so kind and supportive of what you do and don't need. Amazing doctor and amazing practice!! I love the family owned part because you feel like family there! read more

I went to see Dr. Jim at Sweeney for a pain in my lower back that had become so bad I could no longer get through a normal day. To do anything was excruciating and as a mom of 3 kids, it made our day-to-day life really difficult. After just ONE session with Jim 80% of my pain was completely gone. I was walking, bending down to help my kids, holding my 18 month old easily, driving, etc. I was amazed at how much his adjustment helped! The misalignment in my body had been there for almost 2 years so Dr. Jim told me that I would need to come back for a few weeks to keep everything where its supposed to be and FULLY heal. Every visit I felt better and better. The office staff at Sweeney is also really sweet and the wait time is never more than 5 minutes, most days I dont even wait that long. Ive gone to other chiropractors who did not help nearly as much as Dr. Jim did! so I highly recommend him! read more

I came to Sweeney Chiropractic and Dr. Jon in March of 2020 doubled over unable to sit, lie down, or stand without severe pain. This was the second time in two years I had thrown my back out. This time it was bowling of all things... My former chiropractor wasn't open on a Saturday and I needed relief fast. I'm a fitness professional by trade and had spent the previous 5 years using all my yoga, strength, and corrective exercise training to try to fix my back, hips, and legs. I was not thriving in my active lifestyle, I was barely surviving, having to severely downgrade my activity just to keep from being in excruciating pain. I had even experienced depression from not being able to do menial activity when I used to be very athletic. Dr. Jon simply asked me if I wanted to keep living this way? I said, "no." To which he simply responded, "Then let's fix it." A year and a half later I am now doing activity I haven't been able to do for almost 6 years. I'm exercising back at full ability. I still need weekly maintenance because of all the damage I did to my back in my 20s, but I have my LIFE BACK! I wake up with no pain most days and don't feel scared to be as active as I want to be. I'm eternally grateful to Dr. Jon and his staff for taking great care of me. The office is very welcoming and efficiently run with knowledgeable and extremely kind staff. I know I will need chiropractic care for the rest of my life, and I won't go anywhere but Sweeney Chiropractic to get it. I send all my training clients to Dr. Jon because I believe in what he does, and I'm a walking, jumping, running, lifting example of his knowledge and care of the human body. Thank you, Dr. Jon, for giving me back my life!!! read more

Sweeney Chiropractic was the third chiropractic office I went to for help with my back. I spent thousands of dollars and many months at the other 2 chiropractors in Nashville & Franklin and had very little improvement. With Dr. Jim's techniques, I felt improvement within weeks. Within 2 months I had no pain, zero! Dr. Jim gave me my life back! 2 years later I am still pain free and so grateful for Sweeney Chiropractic! read more

Awesome place! Came in because of some numbness in both arms and hands. The doc worked on me for a bit and my left arm has felt better ever since. The right arm is slowly coming along, but after each session it's starting to feel much better. Happened to come in one time when Mother Sweeney was around helping. Talking to this sweet lady was worth the visit alone! Great family run office! read more

This place really took care of my needs and made me feel like a real person, and not just a number. I had some leg and lower back pain that Dr. Jim took great care of. Being a Crossfiter I had overdone some lifting and had a nerve bothering me and hindering me from lifting in the best form and way. This place was able to take my insurance, start me on a regimen of being fixed before any permanent and painful damage happened. These are some of the friendliest people I've encountered in this town. All very friendly and helpful to accommodate. Highly recommend read more

I had a wonderful experience at Sweeney Chiropractic! I had injured my spine, and couldn't sit or walk without pain. I saw another chiropractor first and they weren't sure what the problem was, after a few appointments the pain just kept moving but not getting better. So glad I tried Dr. Sweeney instead. After hearing my symptoms he knew it was a slightly herniated disc and the x-rays confirmed it. He is always reassuring and explains everything that is going on with your ailment, what causes it and what helps. It healed up in less time than the original treatment plan and I feel great! All the staff are very friendly and I always have a great visit. Very glad I found this office! read more

Excellent excellent chiropractor. I was in nashville for a month with my husbands jon and hurt my neck carrying our 5mo old boy all day. I really didn't want to go to a chiropractor being new in the area and not knowing who to trust. I hate getting me neck cracked but after 3 days of pain I trusted the other yelp reviews and went to see dr jim. Glad I did. His nice receptionist fit me in the next morning. Dr jim was very nice and professional. He asked me lots of questions and explained in detail what was causing my Pain and how to fix it. He also asked how my experiences with other chiropractors went. He let me know my neck and shoulders would be sore for a day or two, and they were but I healed a lot faster. Immediately leaving his office I had much more movement in my neck. I would recommend this practice to a friend. read more

Nashville's BEST! Possibly the world's best, but let's focus on the "why" behind my v bold statement. I first saw Dr. Jim back in the spring of 2017 after moving back to the area and having no actual idea of who or where to entrust my chiropractic care. I was experiencing "whiplash" from a car accident prior to my move. My previous chiropractor had been treating me with adjustments as well as electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). All I wanted was someone to trust with not hurting me, as I am small, and for them to offer the same TENS treatment. I read some background and reviews on the Sweeney practice, which at the time just so happened to be a block away from my home, and decided to give them a try. I was met with a charismatic doctor, a friendly staff (including Dr. Jim's mom who visits on occasion and is, by definition, THE most quintessential mom on the planet), and repeated relief from every appointment. For starters, Dr. Jim offers the TENS machine as part of the therapy - which typically comes after your adjustment. He also offers dry needling, which is a great option for pain relief or to improve range of motion. Most recently, I had been experiencing rather intense neck pain and normal adjustments weren't offering relief, so Dr. Jim recommended I try cervical traction to try and decompress my neck/spine. After a few visits on traction, the pain was slowly dissipating. Typically, I react quickly to adjustments/treatments, but due to this neck issue taking a bit longer to treat, Dr. Jim decided it was time to switch to missiles. He recently added "cupping" to his already extensive arsenal of care techniques. The marks you see in the attached photo were from a couple hours after my first cupping session. It looks wicked, but trust me when I say, I've never felt more loose and relaxed. The suction of the cups pulls blood to the surface (which results in the circular marks) and allows for increased blood flow/pain relief/etc. - and the best part is that it doesn't hurt one bit! Not during nor after - those marks never were sore or painful to touch - so don't let the photo fool you. I've referred many friends and family to this practice, and I will continue to do anytime someone mentions needing a chiro. If you're looking for a family run operation, with flexible scheduling and a staff that makes you feel like a friend ON TOP OF great chiropractic care - with doctors who are always learning and researching new methods of care, please do not hesitate to give Sweeney Chiropractic a call today! read more

The best decision I've ever made and I'd like to share a little story about my experience before and after visiting here. A few months ago I began having pain in my mid-upper back and right side of my ribs. I went to my GP and had several tests done to determine what the problem was and she found nothing. She sent me off to a gastroenterologist who again ran more tests and found nothing. They basically chalked it up to, "we can't find it, must be in your head." I was really discouraged and didn't know what to do so I figured I'd try chiropractic outside Doctor recommendation. After one visit where we discussed my problem, thought of what would be going on, what might have caused it, and took X-rays Jon did my first adjustment. Within HOURS my pain that had been bothering me for months was feeling so much better. (The staff, docs, and office are all extremely nice as well. Talkative, friendly, home-feel vibe) If you're deciding whether or not to try chiropractic for the first time, or it didn't work somewhere else, you have to go here. You won't regret it. -Mike read more

Wow! What a pleasant surprise. I have to admit that I experience quite a bit of anxiety when I go to the chiropractor. Very similar to going to the dentist haha. I'm usually highly motivated by pain which was the case this time. Dr Jon's team was so welcoming. He came straight out to the waiting room to shake my hand and welcome me. Amazing! It's a very humble, No Frills location but quite remarkable in terms of customer service and being well cared for. I immediately felt relief after my first adjustment tho it will take some time to heal my spine. I'm so grateful that I found Sweeney Chiropractic! read more

I started as a patient here at Sweeney Chiropractic in May 2015; because I was involved in an awful automobile collision. I cannot say enough great things about these two Doctors, when I walked in, and when I say walked I mean hobble, in for my first treatment I was in awful shape, I could not stand up straight, I could not walk in a straight line. Since that first treatment, they have gotten me back to "true MMI"- in common words they have gotten me back to the life I was used to living, very active and working out with my personal trainer. Since my very first treatment both Doctors have treated me like family. After months of treatment and a number of hours spent with them to "fix" me; I have since started working for both Dr. Jim and Dr. Jon. I left my full time position of five days week to work for them six days a week, and yes that sounds crazy, but I didn't do it for the money, I did it because I truly whole heartedly believe in both of these Doctors. Some may call me crazy because I do not only work for brothers I work with their mother. She is a great addition to this clinic and she really gives a touch only a true mother can give! We have great things going here at Sweeney Chiropractic. I have been under Chiropractic Care my WHOLE life, like I mentioned earlier I live a very active lifestyle, I have been an athlete my whole life, both of these Doctors give the same hands on adjustments I received from my Chiropractor back home while I was growing up. The thing I admire most about these men is that they are not all about making money (yes, we are a business) however, they truly care about each and every one of our patients. They get to know the ins and outs of your life, because they care. Dr. Jon and Dr. Jim work with each of their patients when it comes to making sure you are able to follow your treatment plan so YOU get the help YOU need. read more

I never write reviews but this family and establishment have to be recognized. I previously went to another chiropractor and I felt results at first but then they suddenly stopped. I came to Dr. Jim and he is the best doctor I've experienced he actually gets to know you outside of being a patient. I had a presentation and I told them about it and my next office visit the entire staff asked me how it went . It's these things that make a great business the small things. The ladies at the front desk are nice and sweet. His mom is very nice and has even taught me a couple life lessons in my time coming. The treatment is great I've improved so much from lower back pain caused by a car accident and now my life and activity level is through the roof. I will recommend Sweeney Chiropractor with flying colors. I forgot to mention the cookies on Friday are to die for. read more

I came to Sweeney Chiropractic because I had been experiencing some bad headaches and neck pain. After taking some X-rays, Dr. Jon quickly identified the problem and thoroughly explained to me what needs to be done. He adjusted my neck, did some stretching and showed me a few exercises that I can do at home. After just a few adjustments, I can happily say that my neck feels much better and my headaches are almost gone. Dr. Jon is one of the best chiropractors I've been to. He is so thorough, caring and encouraging!! And he really cares about his patients! I highly recommend Dr. Jon and Sweeney Chiropractic!!!! read more

I was a little skeptical at first and didn't really know what to expect the first time I visited the Sweeney practice. But, from the first step in the door to the treatment and the time I left, I was completely blown away with the friendly environment, professional staff, and of course the Dr.'s extensive knowledge and ability to treat my lower back pain. I am a personal trainer and from years of lifting and playing sports I will occasionally get lower back pain. Dr. Sweeney was able to diagnose the instability issues in my lower back from the X-rays he took and after just a few treatments I'm feeling great and like I can get back to lifting heavy again. I was so impressed with my treatment that I am now referring all of my clients to this practice for any discomfort or chronic pain they may be dealing with. Great practice, great treatment, so glad I found this place! read more

I've been struggling with back issues for over 4 years now. A disc herniation led me to back surgery 3 years ago. I wish I had known about Dr. Sweeney then. Fast forward to 6 weeks ago when I was faced with spinal fusion surgery after an MRI reported multiple disc herniations. After trying 12 weeks of PT, spinal epidural injections, and other chiropractic care I was headed back to the dr worse off then when I started treatment. As a last ditch effort, I googled chiropractors and spinal decompression therapy. Dr. Sweeney popped up and the reviews were too good to not try. I went in pretty weary but Dr. Jim totally changed my life. After a few weeks of spinal decompression I started to have significant pain relief and a better quality of life. I'm a young mom to 2 vibrant kids and I can play again! I'm continuing therapy with Dr. Jim and seeing progress ever week. He's so trustworthy. He truly cares about his patients and can empathize on a personal level with the pain back issues can bring. He's unlike any other chiropractor I've been to. His methods work and his goal is to help you get your life back and better than before! If you have back issues like me, go to Dr. Jim! His entire office is warm and inviting... makes you feel like one of the family. Appointments are prompt and communication is great! read more

Wonderful care. They really do try to make you feel like part of the family. I just moved from out of state. My first visit was helpful to get me when I need again. read more

Seriously the greatest guy! Very detailed and good at what he does. I always feel better after a visit there. Chronic migraines and back pain seriously improve. Just wish I were closer to visit more frequently!! read more

They are awesome! I was in pain from an auto accident and couldn't find anyone open on Saturday morning until I called Sweeney Chiropractic. They worked me in at the last minute. I will be patient for life. Excellent staff and doctor I highly recommend them! read more

Didn't realize how much pain I was living with. Dr. Sweeney will get you well again.

Let me start by saying: Dr. Jim is one of the most passionate and caring doctors I have ever met. He is always one step ahead and learning new ways to help his patients. Every one of his staff members are just as incredible as he is! I was so skeptical about going to a Chiropractor, and told by many people that it wouldn't help, not to waste my money. When I went to Dr. Jim I had no curvature in my neck, I was in severe pain, and within 3 months of treatment my spine was corrected and my pain had subsided. This was with no pain medication and just simply following his instructions. I never felt like just another patient there - they make you feel so comfortable and you can tell they truly care. Which is hard to find with any doctor. I was so iffy during the first of my treatment. I felt like I would never see the results I wanted and I would just be in pain forever. I hit Dr. Jim with a million questions, but he always took the time to answer them and make me feel better. They were always reassuring and trying to ease my mind. When my 3-month checkup came around and I was finally able to see my x-ray results I was in shock... He actually restored my curve! It made all of the appointments and training I had to do at home so worth it. I couldn't have been in better hands with Dr. Jim and his staff. They truly go above and beyond. I will always go to them for my adjustments and recommend them to everyone! You absolutely can NOT go wrong with putting your trust into him and his team. Thank you so much Dr. Jim & Staff for everything! read more

Absolutely wonderful. Extremely friendly staff. Always attentive and timely. Dr. Jim helped me alleviate an extremely sharp pain in my back and I am so grateful. read more

Dr. Jim Sweeney is the best of the best! He cares about his patients and knows what he is doing when it comes to addressing the needs of each patient. He gives you an honest opinion of what needs to be done and not a sales pitch! His treatments are effective and have helped me tremendously in handling the pain in my back and neck. You are treated as an important person not as a patient. I have ALWAYS felt better after a visit and would HIGHLY recommend him to everyone! read more

I have had lower back pain for about a year and just decided to live with it. I don't know what I did, but one day out of the blue, I stood up suddenly and that nagging pain shot up to a "this is not something anyone can live with" level. I was going out of town the next day and knew I needed help quickly or I'd have to cancel that trip because I could hardly walk. I called 3 different chiropractors (from friends' recommendations) to see if they could squeeze me in for a last minute emergency appointment. No one had any availability. Finally I looked on Yelp, and after reading glowing reviews, I called Sweeney Chiropractic. The receptionist, Ruth, was a ray of sunshine on a day that felt very stormy. She was sympathetic, positive, and accommodating as she scheduled me for an appointment that afternoon. When I arrived, she cheerily greeted me, as did Dr. Jim. After filling out paperwork, Dr. Jim spoke briefly with me about my back, but I could tell he already thought he recognized what was wrong by what I said in my paperwork, I assume. He mentioned something about "compression" causing my pain and had me lay on my stomach while he did some thing with the bottom of the table I was laying on to stretch my back. It felt good, and he said this wasn't going to be a quick fix, but require regular therapy to solve. My time with him was about 5 minutes speaking, and 5 minutes on the table. It felt a bit rushed, but because I was a last minute appointment, I can understand that. Then Ruth hooked me up to a machine that sent electronic impulses to my back while a laid on a my back on a table that had a roller going up & down like a massage. When it was done, a new woman unhooked me and directed me to get up. This is when my 5 star experience began dwindling to 4. It's hard to explain the interaction I had with this woman, but it wasn't good. I wouldn't say she was rude, but she certainly didn't carry the same kindness Ruth or Dr. Jim had before. I just felt kind of dismissed by her. She directed me to wait in the lobby where I sat for about 8 minutes. Things had clearly gotten busier since I first arrived, and after sitting in the lobby for about 8 minutes, Dr. Jim walked by and told Ruth that I was done and needed to schedule another appointment. He was speaking "of" me rather than "to" me. I would have appreciated if he gave me some follow-up, like explain exactly what he saw was wrong with me, or stretches or something I could do until next time, or even just a "I'll see you next time". Instead, I sat needlessly in the lobby when apparently I was done. I spoke with my friend, whose chiropractor couldn't fit me in for a same-day appointment, and I'm going to see her chiropractor instead, so I cancelled with Sweeney. My friend was surprised they didn't do an x-ray to confirm what the real problem was. All in all, I appreciated Sweeney for accommodating me that day, my back DOES feel better than it did, and if my appointment ended the way it began, I may have stuck with them. read more

Chiropractor vs. Physical Therapist I started training for a marathon 14 months after having my first child. I'm an active person, but obviously a marathon is a huge strain on your entire body. Ten weeks into my training and a few days after my 16mile run, I began experiencing intense back pain, but only while walking and running. I went to see a Physical therapist thinking I'd be x-rayed, diagnosed, and provided a treatment plan. I spent a week and a half in physical therapy and was progressively getting worse. My mile times were on average 4 minutes slower, I was taking ibuprofen every 4hrs just to get through the day, and the pain never seemed to let up. What concerned me about PT was that the therapist was basing her recommendations on me being able to quantify my pain. We would do a series of stretches and movements and she would ask if it hurt when the only thing that ever hurt was walking and running. There wasn't a name for what I was experiencing; it was just a result of me having a baby and training without building my core muscles more. The PT would use phrases like "this should improve in a week", "you should be able to continue training", and "listen to your body and walk the miles instead of run". After three treatments and zero signs of improvement, the PT mentioned that I might be out of alignment, so I called Sweeney Chiropractic. I had seen Dr. John throughout my entire pregnancy, and I'm honestly not sure why I did not start here in the first place. I began to see improvement after my first adjustment. Dr. John did an x-ray, explained that I had a pelvic torsion, and gave me a definitive timeline that I could see improvement. I was able to run 8 miles the next day with minimal pain, and after three treatments that week, I was able to complete my 18mile run at my normal pace. Physical Therapy set me back about two weeks, but thanks to Dr. John, I have been able to push through it and catch up. His expertise, personable care, and incredible staff give me such a peace of mind that I am in good hands. The entire staff goes above and beyond for each patient and they are able to book appointments same day. This practice is wonderful and I would highly recommend! read more

I was deathly afraid of chiropractors until Dr Jim convinced me to let him work on my back. Which I really did need to be adjusted and worked on but was terrified as I had a very bad experience in the past. I have had persistent headaches and migraines for 12 years and after the first time of being worked on by Dr Jim my headaches COMPLETELY disappeared. Honestly like magic. The last time I went in (last week) my hip was hurting and bothering me to the point I was almost crying, one visit and again like magic, no pain! He's the best, friendly, fun, outgoing, nice and genuinely cares about his patients. Highly highly recommend! Oh and of course I can't forget the lovely ladies at the front, they are so sweet and friendly they make you feel right at home. read more
