Baker Chiropractic & Acupuncture

This was my first visit to a chiropractor and will be my last.
Was enticed by the «half off» for first time clients.
Called and complained about having back problems, but stated multiple times I felt acupuncture was going to help. Which they offer.
I was booked for an apt same day, which was awesome.
I get there, and fill out paperwork. Then get taken to my room by what I assumed was a nurse, like in a doctors office. she asked me questions and typed everything out on the computer-​then left the room. Just like in a doctors office.
She returns, turns out-​that was the doctor, and who would be working on me. She didn’t introduce herself at all. So that was weird. Didn’t say her name or anything. Took me awhile to figure out «oh she isn’t just a nurse.» Would’ve been nice to know who she was before she just jumped in.
Again, stated over the phone, and once I got there, that I felt acupuncture would’ve been best for me.
What I got was a chiropractic adjustment, cupping, and kinesiology tape.
Cupping…ugh. So weird and gross. I knew what it was from various blogs as the «it» treatment. I absolutely hated the feeling and it took everything I had not to rip it off and walk out the door. The tape, left it on the full 10 days and it didn’t do a damn thing. Was told it would help with all the inflammation I had… didn’t do anything noticeable except itch.
What really bothers me about all of this, over a month later, is I paid $ 140. A hundred freaking forty dollars… at the «half off» new client special. For what? I left feeling only maybe 10% better than walking in.
That was on a Thursday, and she wanted me to schedule again for that Monday. Wait what? I would only get a weekends worth of relief for that price?! Sadly, I didn’t even get half a days relief for that price.
Hard lesson learned. Should’ve just gone to my regular doctor

I was in KC only for a week with a tour and was in real need of some relief for my neck and shoulders.
In the past I’ve not had the best experiences with chiropractors so I was not a huge fan but I was in pain and willing to give anything a shot. Kristine is wonderful! She’s knowledgable and really knows how to address your issues and go to work on it. Kristine really does have a healing touch! She made this doubting Thomas a believer! With her help my neck and shoulders felt better immediately and I left her office feeling inches taller. She also a lovely person to boot! The folks here in KC are lucky to have her. I only wish I were closer.

This isn’t a «back cracking» like a lot of chiropractors where you are in and out in 5 minutes. This is a 30 minute experience including muscle work and adjustments. I always leave this office feeling stronger and more comfortable. I’ve been to various chiropractors over the years and this is by far the best and most unique I’ve been to. I feel like I am getting a full body treatment with particular focus on what is bothering me on a given day. I would highly recommend Dr. Baker for a true chiropractic experience.

Traveling through KC on tour. I needed a chiropractor /​therapist badly! Devine providence, Kristine had just had a cancellation and worked me in. To call her just a chiropractor would be an understatement. Her practice is actually an intricately woven combination of many modalities she has learned thru her years of practice and she moves between them seamlessly. Kristine’s most valuable asset however, is her intuition. Her ability to read the human body and track pathways of pain and the interconnectedness of muscle, frame and emotion is nothing short of profound. Plus, she has this really cool retro exam table that has been handed down to her from her dad. 5 stars is only a beginning, if you are reading this review. Don’t contemplate any more. Go see her…

Dr. Kristine Baker is incredible! I came to KC on business having had chronic neck and back stiffness that massage therapy couldn’t seem to release. She saw me immediately, took outstanding care of me in the consultation and the session. She used both acupuncture (I am a semi-​veteran with acupuncture) and craniosacral therapy (never had it in my life before this). Within one session, I felt relaxed (my friends even said I looked really relaxed), released, and happier. Her compassion, thorough detail, and genuine concern put me at ease and helped me realize I was in extremely caring and capable hands. Highly recommend!

I received chiropractic care from Dr. Baker beginning when I was 21 weeks pregnant. Dr. Baker is well versed in all things pregnancy related, and was able to adjust me with knowledge of what a pregnant woman needs, as opposed to just accomidating for my growing belly as I had experienced with another provider. My pregnancy went a full two weeks past my due date with no physical complaints from me. Dr. Baker took care of any aches and pains along the way. Along with her knowledge of chiropratics, Dr. Baker is a great listener who wants to help in any way she can. Overall, I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Baker. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who cares, and will give you the results you want you’ve found the right doctor!

Dr Baker is a wonderful caring person who does not just spend 5 mins with you. She is a great chiropractor, and is easy to make an appointment with.
