I began my journey for a chiropractor when I began experiencing my lower back pain had become the worst. I have neuropathy in my feet and bone on bone knees. Heck, my whole body is in need of adjusting, and just help period. I couldnt even walk across the room, and more or less excersise without major pain. Medical Doctors having me do many unecessary trips to very expensive specialists. I had been taking enough pills and refused pain medication added to my already brood of pills. I felt stuck and hopeless. While recommendations can be great, I alway find myself looking and for the things I want or need by myself. I needed my choice to just answer a couple questions in my mind....Do the hours fit my job situation and are they open on Saturdays also? Do I feel comfortable talking with the chiropractor? Does the chiropractor fully answer all questions I ask? Does the chiropractic listen to my complete explanation of symptoms that I placed on the their form I first filled out? I found that at Chanhassen Wellness Chiropratic ......Michael Kennedy and his office workers were the perfect fit! They are family focused and very friendly. They went out of their way to help me fit my appointments in with my schedule. Michael Kennedy made me feel that we would work together to restore my health, but also that I needed to believe there was a reason to need, and want to work just as hard with him. He did truly want to know my vision for wellness. Your experience here will be relaxing and stress-free. I feel stronger, healthier and I have more energy in the little time Ive been with them so far. I have definitely improved and cant wait to see the continued improvement to come. If there is something that others can’t figure out for you, or you want to better yourself, give Chanhassen Wellness Chiropratic a try. I had felt stuck and hopeless .... but right now I feel great about the progress I have made and after each visit I feel better and better. I would definitely recommend that others come here to Chanhassen Wellness Chiropratic.

Last year my 8 year old son started showing severe tics (involuntary movements and sounds). They progressively grew worse as anxiety over school increased during the year. We tried ignoring them for a while- but then the tics started to increase as he became self-conscious about them. I simply could not watch my extremely confident and fun loving boy spiral into a withdrawn boy due to embarrassment over his tics. I did not want to immediately put him on medication as I have seen so many side effects with meds. So with a little research I found Dr. Kennedy’s website showing that he had helped a child with Tics and Tourette’s syndrome. He saw my son and found that there were several foods that he should stay away from. We have learned so much about nutrition thru Dr. Kennedy and how it truly affects your body in ways you would never have guessed. I always believed I fed my children good healthy foods. But this program showed me that we really were not making all the best choices and could make some improvements. After making some adjustments to our diet and working with Dr. Kennedy to find out what triggers my sons Tics we have seen a dramatic difference. I really noticed after our 7 and 8th session the Tics start to lessen. Even though my son will still tic from time to time- we went from constant head jerking 6 months ago to almost nothing today. I am really happy in our decision to pursue treatment with Dr. Kennedy – I feel that I am giving my son invaluable tools to really understand nutrition that will help him throughout his lifetime.

On Monday afternoon someone was having road rage and took it out on me by trying to hit me. I hit my brakes hard..Didnt think anything about it until later on in the evening. Could hardly put pressure on my left leg with out excruciating pain! It wasnt any better in the morning and I was able to get in to see Dr Kennedy about 4. I did okay during the day as long as I was moving. Trying to stand up out of my car was almost impossible.. tears of pain. The pain was so bad I could not even lay face down on the table. Dr Kennedy raised the bed vertically and started doing his treatment...and gradually I was laying face down flat on the bed. He also put kinesiology tape on the affected area. I went back at 6 and he did more adjustments. And he aent me home with some supplement to take every 30 minutes. It was still very painful getting out of my car before the 2nd appointment. After that one, I went home and just tried to relax. I woke up this morning at 4 thinking that it would take me awhile to get going. I was amazed that I could actually put pressure on my leg and walk without the excruciating pain. I made it through the day with Tylenol and the supplement. Had another appointment at 5:30. And again, pain at first when getting out of the car because I had been sitting still for awhile. He worked his magic again and tonight I am alternating heat and ice every 20 minutes. I am so grateful that Dr Kennedy cares about his patients and wants to be sure that his patients are on the right path for healing! Thank you!

For me, chiropractic care is not the end-all, be-all, but it does have its place. Several years ago I fell hard and needed an adjustment and he did a great job of putting me back. Earlier this year I fell again and went back to get adjusted. My wife was having back issues too, so she started seeing him as well. I told him exactly where I was hurting, and he went through his adjustment routine. I didnt get better so I went back and he did the same exact routine without doing an assessment so he could focus attention. My wife noticed the same thing over 4 visits - he just goes through the same adjustment routine regardless of where it hurts. Well, this second time I saw him he pulled on my left leg - something he hadnt done before. I felt pain right away in my hip, like a pinched nerve. I went back one more time to tell him about the hip pain in hopes he could fix it, but he went through the same adjustment routine again, with no improvement. Fast forward 4 months of near constant pain. I wake up one day and can barely get dressed. I go to the doctor and he recommends physical therapy. Two sessions of physical therapy and the guy figures out that my sacrum is out of place. After 1 minute, he gets it back in place! No more back pain! Unfortunately, I still have left leg nerve pain that I have to work through, that I never wouldve had if I hadnt seen him. Will I seek chiropractic again? Maybe. But somewhere else.

I had seen Dr. Kennedy in the past for a bad back injury. I have since moved to Arizona and injured my neck and back. I was in severe pain! Saw a chiropractor in Arizona 7 times for this injury. It seemed as though he was just moving the problem from one area to another. My pain was unbearable! 6 weeks of trying to get better. Literally on my back for 6 weeks. Was getting very depressed. I am an active person and I was thinking I was never going to get better! Well, I made an impromptu trip back to Minnesota to see family. Plane ride was difficult because of my condition. I landed early with time to kill. I was in PAIN! I decided to take a chance and see if Dr.Kennedy could see me that day. A Saturday! They said they could take me that morning. Guess what!? He fixed me in one visit! I know the results arent typical, but he did it! I learned the hard way that all chiropractors are NOT the same. Dr. Kennedy is the whole package. He knows that just cracking your neck or back is not enough. He looks at strength, balance, diet, etc. And adjusts all areas. My back, neck, legs, wrists, etc. I had 2 visits on my trip back and I am convinced that I would still be dealing with this if it werent for Dr. Kennedy! I will continue to see him when I make visits back to Minnesota. Happy in Arizona because of my Minnesota chiropractor!
