I started seeing Dr. Jim about 7 months ago after moving to St. Louis from Minneapolis. Ive seen a chiropractor for around 15 years, and never have I had a chiropractor actually take x-rays of my spine. Dr. Jim informed me that I have a mild case of scoliosis, which was news to me! Dr. Jim didnt let that bring me down, he told me what Id have to do to maintain that level and not let it deteriorate further. What I like about Dr. Jim the most is he doesnt lecture; Ive had chiropractors in the past who lecture and make you feel badly about yourself. Dr. Jim is going to give you advice for sure, but he doesnt make you feel badly about yourself if you struggle to follow-through on all his advice. Dr. Jim doesnt only treat back/neck pain, but he gave me stretches and tips on how I can decrease my back pain while Im at home so I dont have to constantly come back to visit him, though I will because he truly cares about me and my overall health, not just my back and neck pain. Thanks Dr. Jim!

I didnt even know how much pain I was in when I started seeing Dr Jim. I had gotten used to living with it. I thought it was just a part of getting older. As he worked through each of my problems, I started to notice a difference, a BIG difference! Now, I am completely mobile, so much so that I have been able to exercise for the first time in years. I have lost weight as a result, and I feel fantastic. (I havent been able to sit cross legged on the floor in at least 10 years) Now I can get down and play with the kids! AMAZING He has put me back on the track to wellness. I think what makes him special is that he looks at each of his patients as individuals (I have been to chiropractors, where I just felt like I was on an assembly line) No two people are alike, and Dr Jim makes sure that his treatment is right for each person. Even if you are not having a severe problem, I would recommend seeing him. You wont believe the difference in how you feel!!!

i have really bad bulging disc and sciatica, also scoliosis. Iv been seeing Dr.Jim 11 times now. First visit was October 11,2016 and the pain level was very high. It was very difficult to stand up straight,difficult to walk long distances or stand. i felt very weak in my back. now my pain level has decreased ALOT. Im able to sleep better and not in so much pain when i wake up in the morning. I found Dr.Jim on google and read all the reviews about him and i want you to see what i was looking for, i did. hes great at what he does! highly recommend if you have any back problems. i feel immediate relief after every adjustment. he massages all trigger points, soar but it relieves later. also has a machine called "Laser therapy" it helps regenerate nerves and gets deep in tissue the more u get treated. its very warm and relaxing and has made my healing process faster.

Went in this morning for treatment to lower back/hip area. Dr. Hankinson worked on muscles and did some needed adjustments. Areas treated feel so much better. I was dreading the pain I thought I would experience...but very little discomfort was experienced. Dr. Hankinson was gentle and explained everything he was doing. And, im not limping and bent over after getting up from a seated position. Thanks so much! Youll be my go-to person for any future adjustments I may need. Also, Dr. Hankinson,.thanks for the exercise sheet showing what I need to do to keep strengthening the muscles in my lower back. We seniors need to know what to do to keep us moving.

Dr. Jim Hankinson is a God sent healer! After going to other chiropractors with little relief, I came to him for severe pain in my neck and back that had been occurring for over a month at the time. Immediately, after the first visit, I was able to find some relief through his adjustment and muscle work that other chiropractors could not provide. In addition, Dr. Jim is extremely knowledgeable in overall wellness and offers many other services to assist his patients in achieving their health goals and best version of themselves. Hands down, he is the best Ive been to! Highly recommend.

Dr. Jim will take the time to fully evaluate you to determine everything that is going on with your body that could be contributing to your problems. He is very thorough as well as concerned about fixing the problem vs. temporarily relieving it. He is personable, attentive and effective. He also makes you feel comfortable and welcome. Definitely recommend him to anyone from the small pain issues to the more complex ones as well as keeping your body doing well long-term. When you are tired of not getting thorough treatment or lack of results, its time to make your appt to see Dr. Jim.

Dr. Hankinson has been a huge help! I started to see him after my chronic low back pain started to get worse from a sedentary lifestyle at the office. We took x-rays at his office and reviewed them the next week. We found my low back pain stems from a degenerating desk and pinched nerves. Through a month weekly alignments and exercises, I have already noticed a big difference in my pain level and flexibility. I would recommend Dr. Hankinson to anyone! He even wrote a recommendation for my new sit to stand desk!

WOW! 7 days ago I took a bad fall and blow to My neck, back and chest... After 5 daily visits to Dr. Jim and doing his suggested ice and stretches at home. I went form severe pain to Minimal .... I am amazingly better.. I have been seeing him for more than 10 years.. He always gets me back on track. He is so much more than your typical chiropractor. He doesnt just "adjust" you... He works deep muscles, electric stim, adjustments and more.... Highly recommend Dr. Jim. Thanks Jim!!!!

I am a former cancer patient who had lost the use of her left knee for the last 3 years. I have been Dr. Jims patient for just over a month and today I am using the knee and able to run up the stairs for the first time in 3 years! Dr. Jim has provided excellent practical advise that I have found to be very effective. I was looking for a drug free way to feel better and I believe I have found it. It takes time and regular appointments but is so worth it.

I wish I had the words to describe how amazing Dr. Jim is. His thorough evaluation quickly identified problems that had been missed by prior chiropractors, physicians, and physical therapists for years. After 4 visits, I cant believe the improvement in my symptoms. Years of sports, and then pregnancy, have done a number on my body. I am so incredibly thankful to have found him. I look forward to seeing him each visit- and as a bonus- hes funny too!

Dr Jim is thorough, efficient and aggressive in his treatments and body work, which is exactly what I need. But he is also very patient and has worked out muscle soreness to get to the root of my back/hip/quad pain after pregnancies, bad habits and from being an athlete. He has taught me how to take care of myself, showed me exercises and stretches to do and reminded me of the importance of nutrition and supplements. Thank you so much Dr Jim!!
