Dr. Chris Whitney and his team at Johnson Spinal Care were amazing. The Savage clinic was very clean, and their approach to NUCCA upper cervical chiropractic care is refreshingly thorough and precise.
As a massage therapist and clinic owner, I pay close attention to how other providers assess and treat, and I was genuinely impressed. The imaging is remarkable. They don't guess; they measure exactly where your upper neck is out of alignment before they ever adjust. Then they take a follow-up scan after your first adjustment so you can actually see the initial results. That level of precision is rare, and it gave me real confidence in the care plan. The adjustment itself was gentle, with no twisting or cracking of the neck.
The results speak for themselves. My neck genuinely feels pain-free and moves more freely, and I can feel the improvement all the way down to my hips. Even talking feels more symmetrical. For anyone dealing with neck pain, headaches, or posture imbalances who has tried other approaches without lasting relief, I highly recommend Johnson Spinal Care.
Coming from Bloomington, the Savage clinic was very easy to get to, and I'm very thankful to have a NUCCA chiropractor near me for my neck care. Between Johnson Spinal Care and my therapeutic massages at Integrative Massage in Edina, I finally feel like I have a team in place for my long-term health and longevity. Thank you, Dr. Whitney!

I started seeing Dr. Whitney about 6 months ago, shortly after finding out I was pregnant with my 3rd. He has helped me so much and I rest easy knowing his technique is gentle and safe for me and baby! Let’s not forget Jericho, she’s amazing! She greets you like you’re the only one in the room when you walk in and patiently and joyfully keeps things running smoothly.

Both my husband and I went to see Dr. Norris after both coworkers and family referred us here and both of us have improved tremendously. Separate issues, separate painful areas and we both have felt so much relief since our first appointment. I really appreciate how thorough Dr. Norris is and how well he explains each step of the process. All of the ladies at the front desk are so friendly and helpful as well. Thank you all for what you do & for helping improve your clients lives!

I have had the opportunity to see three different docs - I started with Dr. Johnson in Bloomington, then saw Dr. Whitney in Savage and eventually switched to Dr. Bush in White Bear Lake due to better proximity. Every single doctor I have seen has given me great care! I have had sciatic back pain and knee problems for years that traditional chiropractic and physical therapy alone could not fix. Since I have becoming to JSC, my pain has decreased and my mobility had increased significantly! Initially it took almost a year for me to hold my adjustments but the benefits kept me returning. Now I know when I'm out of alignment and a quick adjustment provides instant relief. I tell my family and friends that if they haven't tried NUCCA yet, it is well worth it! It has changed my life for the better!

I and my family have been Johnson Spinal Care patients for over 17 years, and to say that they have improved the quality of our lives would be a huge understatement! The NUCCA adjustment is life changing, and the staff is uniquely qualified and highly skilled in keeping life "aligned" and fully functional. I simply cannot recommend this more highly! I have referred so many friends, and they can't stop thanking me!

I’ve had such a positive experience with Dr. Matt Wurgler and Johnson Spinal Care. He is incredibly thorough, takes the time to listen, and explains what he’s seeing and why before doing anything.
I especially appreciate how gentle and precise his approach is. He checks my alignment at every visit and only adjusts when it’s actually needed, which has given me a lot of confidence in his care. I’ve noticed meaningful improvements since starting treatment, and he has become an important part of my overall healing process.
Dr. Matt is knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely invested in his patients. I’m very grateful I found Johnson Spinal Care and would absolutely recommend him!

I’ve been coming here for at least 4–5 years, and Dr. Wurgler is amazing! Anytime I have a migraine or my lower back is acting up, I always feel so much better after an adjustment. I also really appreciate how gentle his adjustments are, there’s no twisting or cracking of the neck, which was always something that made me nervous about chiropractic care. I highly recommend Dr. Wurgler! ☺️

I had a great experience at Johnson Spinal Care in White Bear Lake. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and truly cares about their patients. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable and well cared for. The providers took the time to listen to my concerns, explain my treatment plan, and answer all of my questions. The office is clean, professional, and runs efficiently. I've noticed a significant improvement in how I feel since starting care here. I highly recommend Johnson Spinal Care to anyone looking for quality chiropractic care and a team that genuinely puts patients first.

Johnson Spinal Care is truly the best! Everyone there is so kind, welcoming, and caring. I’ve been seeing Tad for several years for lower back and neck issues, and he has helped me tremendously. I’ve seen such a positive improvement in my overall health and well-being. Tad genuinely cares about his patients and always shows so much compassion. You can truly feel how invested he is in helping people feel their best. I honestly believe the care I’ve received at Johnson Spinal Care has given me a better quality of life. I’m so grateful for everything they’ve done for me!

We specifically chose NUCCA to help keep our daughter aligned before attempting surgery for her scoliosis. Dr. Norris has been exceptional in his professionalism, care, and treatment options. We have been very pleased that she has remained comfortable, pain free, and her curve has stabilized. Keep Johnson Spinal Care in mind if you are looking for chiropractic staff who will really listen to your concerns and will truly help you feel better.

I’m so thankful to have found Dr. Bush. I had chronic back pain for multiple years. After trying PT and other remedies, I decided to try finding a NUCCA practice. Dr. Bush has been caring and thorough, and my back pain is gone! Highly recommend.

I enjoy going to the clinic and love all the staff! I have felt a great amount of progress over my months of care! Dr. Whitney is thorough and precise! Very gentle chiropractic care while getting your entire body into alignment not just adjusting a specific spot! You’ll be happy to go and see the results!

I have been going to Johnson Spinal Care for just over a year for neck issues caused by a major car accident. Before finding them, I went to many different doctors trying to find answers, but Johnson Spinal Care was the first place that really seemed to understand the symptoms I was experiencing.
At my first visit, they found that my upper neck was severely misaligned. They were very straightforward about what they found, what they were going to do, and how they planned to help me.
Over the last year, I have gradually continued to improve and have noticed a big difference in how I feel. Every time I go in, everyone is extremely nice, helpful, and willing to answer any questions I have, whether it’s about the next step in my treatment plan or simply scheduling my next appointment.
I’ve had a great experience with Johnson Spinal Care and would recommend them to anyone dealing with similar issues.

After seeing a neurologist, ENT (3x), and having a brain MRA and brain MVA, and a 3 hour vestibular workup at U of M East Bank, all pointed to a central processing disorder; no amount of vestibular therapy, PT, OT, cranial sacral massages, low stim environments made any changes. I am an emergency room nurse, and I was having to call in sick many days, I am also in grad school for NP, and somedays I couldn’t focus to study because I was SO dizzy. Many days I felt like my head my floating and a hot air balloon for my head. Laying in bed was typically the worst, felt like my bed and pillows were at a decline and was falling backwards, Eply Manuever made everything waaaaay worse. I would be standing with shoes on and not looking up or anything at all and would feel like a trap door is at my heels and incredibly unsteady. After working with a D.C. neuro specialist (who is amazing btw, and I did get better with my eye issues) he suggested a NUCCA chiropractor.
None of the providers that I went to did imaging on my NECK. As part of the intake at JSC they do a full panorama image of your neck. Guess what the root cause of my dizziness, brain fog, chronic migraines, memory issues ended up being? My cervical spine was WAY out of alignment. I saw images of my OWN neck and spine showing how out of alignment I was, scientific evidence, not some gimmick. I was very out of alignment, and like Dr. Bush said, it would take awhile to notice changes. The first few adjustments I was very tired, almost lethargic (all normal post adjustment). I can now tell when I am slightly out of alignment, and I have only been 1/10 or 1/8 out of alignment since about the 3rd months of adjustments. Some may say it’s pricy, but, you have nothing to lose when you are seeing a Doctor of Chiropractic Medicine who CHOSE to focus on just ONE bone/region of the body. That takes a very special provider to do that, and Dr. Bush is the best. I was really worried the first adjustment, thinking it would be painful, and trust me, I don’t want ANYONE near my brainstem region. You cannot feel ANYTHING, promise. Check the clinic out, you will not be disappointed. I was in 2 weeks ago and for the first time, I HELD alignment (crazy distance runner who runs trails, and a nurse, so have horrid posture usually) and Dr. Busy checked me and said no need for adjustment, whereas some Chiro’s would have seen $ and adjustment me anyways. So thankful to have found this clinic and grateful beyond believe for Dr. Bush!

I started my chiropractic journey with Dr. Tad Norris in Apple Valley and had an amazing experience, but the hour drive eventually became difficult to maintain. Finding Dr. Bush at Johnson Spinal Care in White Bear Lake has truly been the best of both worlds— I cut my drive time in half and still receive incredible care!
Dr. Bush met me exactly where I was about 8 weeks ago, and I can genuinely feel the difference now that my body is back in alignment. The entire office is welcoming, professional, and focused on patient-centered care.If you’re looking for a chiropractor who goes above and beyond— without any cracking, popping, or snapping— I highly recommend checking out Johnson Spinal Care. I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience!
