Dr. Higginbottom is amazing! He is always kind and in a good mood. This guy is downright jolly! He is very thorough. His hands are magical. He just KNOWS. I’m not sure what else to say. The man is gifted. I’ve referred two friends to him and they feel the same way.

Amazing Amazing Amazing. I came here in a tremendous amount of pain. The doctor took X-​Rays and determined what my issue was. After years of going to see many doctors and only given medicine for the pain and not fixing the underlining issue. We made a plan to move forward and I’m now here twice a week and improving daily.

The first time I went to this practice I arrived literally in tears because my lower back was hurting so badly. I practically collapsed into a chair in the waiting area… but in the few minutes I had to wait, another woman who was also waiting leaned toward me and said, «I’ve been there. Dr. Higginbottom will take care of you.» And he did – he nearly had to carry me to the treatment area that first time, but I improved immensely after three visits – and does whenever I need to go back.
Although he may encourage you to come for regular appointments, he doesn’t pressure you into it. He really does help my recurring lower-​back flare-​ups and is both gentle and efficient. Sometimes he uses this gun thingy (?) to move my spine (in addition to gentler manipulations), and it does kinda hurt if my spine is inflamed and messed up. So yeah, that part sucks. But it’s over quickly, and whatever he does, it works.
Dr. Higginbottom has a basic X-​ray machine in the office so he doesn’t have to refer you out, and appointments are a reasonable flat rate. He seems to have lots of «regulars» who always act happy to see him, and vice-​versa.
The office isn’t fancy or sterile-​looking (it is professional though). Sometimes you will see advertisements in the waiting area promoting some kind of health product like supplements or nutrition shakes. None of this bothers me, but just so you have an idea of what to expect.
In the interest of full disclosure, I pay a «student rate» of $ 25 which makes it quite affordable. If you’re a student, it’s definitely worth checking out. But even if you’re not, don’t wait! In my experience you can likely be seen same-​day. Arrive a little early, because people come in and out of there constantly and you’ll generally get seen in the order you arrived.

Dr. H is awesome and this review is not about him as much as it is about the place he operates in. He is really friendly and he does exactly what he is supposed to, except when you ask him to do something. It has been about a year now since I have asked him to evaluate my vitamin levels, a year. I was supposed to have a x-​ray taken which is now 4 months late.
Additionally, I am a bit of germaphobe, so this may be taking with a grain of salt, but sometimes I can still smell what he had for lunch on his hands, he uses tools on me (my face!!!) without whipping the tools off first and his place looks like it hasn’t been vacuumed in about 2 years. It is very easy, and low cost, to make a place look nice. The place you operate in is a reflection of who you are. So what does this say about him?

My wife and I have been going to Lifestyle Chiropractic for a few years now. Dr. Higgenbottom does an amazing job. He is very concerned with overall health and prefers to use natural methods of healing such as chiropractic care rather than medicine. I have started to encourage my parents to go as well.
