Thank God for Andrew and his team.
Before NorthStar I spent over 2 years in disabling pain & drowning in persistent concussion following a head-on crash.
Saw ~ 30 providers.
Now after ~ 3 months with NorthStar, everything has steadily improved, and I have hope.
Thanks so much. I canāt even say
I started going there about 1 week ago for migraines/lower back pain. So far No headaches and I can sleep on my back again. I recommend Dr. Andrew. They do different types of therapy that is recommended for you. I go twice a week and I feel much better each time I go.
Iāve been seeing Dr. Andy for 8+ years now, and I truly canāt recommend him enough. He is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about his patientsā long-term healthānot just quick fixes.<br>Whether itās routine adjustments, working through an injury, or helping with preventative care, he always takes the time to listen and explain whatās going on. I consistently leave feeling better and more aligned (literally and figuratively!).<br>If youāre looking for a chiropractor you can trust for the long haul, Dr. Andy is the best.
Dr Andy and his assistant Brendan are always helpful and committed to helping their clients. This place saved me from debilitating shoulder neck and arm pain. Highest recommendation possible!!!!
I started coming to Northstar over a year ago when I was having back spasms that caused such pain that I had tough time sitting. After a few months of weekly treatments, I have been feeling great and haven't had a spasm since. Strongly recommend.
I originally started with Dr Andy after a car accident and have continued for 2 more years for maintenance and it's been so good for my spinal health. Also everyone is so kind and welcoming:)
Dr. Andy is phenomenal, listens to the individual need and goes the extra mile. His support staff Emma and Brenden are great to work with and make billing a breeze!
Dr Andy gets it right every time. His adjustments keep me active and aligned every time. The staff is also so welcoming and wonderful. Love the variety of support Northstar Spine provides
Dr. Andy and Brendan are the best in the area! They are through and will develop a treatment plan that really works. Dont hesitate to make an appointment, you wont regret it and will be feeling better in no time!
Iāve been seeing Dr. Andy at NorthStar Spine for about 10 years, and I truly canāt say enough good things about him and his team. Over the years, he has consistently provided thoughtful, thorough, and personalized care. He takes the time to listen, explains everything clearly, and genuinely cares about long-term health; not just quick fixes.<br><br>What I appreciate most is his consistency and trustworthiness. After a decade as a patient, I can confidently say he is knowledgeable, professional, and deeply committed to his patientsā well-being.

Dr Andy & staff have kept my 70+ year old body moving through years of computer work that was not kind to my neck & shoulders. Now in retirement he keeps me moving through many hours of enjoyable sewing! Thank you!!
I have been coming here for almost 10 years and Northstar Spine has a reputation for having some of the friendliest, most caring staff members of any chiropractic care in the area. Doctor Andy really gets to know you and makes sure you get the treatment that is right for you!
My lower back was negatively affecting my quality of life. It feels amazing since Iāve started seeing Dr. Andy and Iām able to do everything I want to do without chronic lower back pain. Getting regular adjustments also helps me keep illness away.
Love Dr. Andy and all his staff. Super flexible and easy to get in. I always feel better after getting adjusted. Check your them out if youāre new to chiropractic or looking for someone new to see. Highest recommendation!
I saw an ad for this place pop-up while I was on Facebook ironically, I was in need of getting adjusted and saw that they had a promotion running for $18 which I thought was totally fake. It was only 15 minutes from home so I took a chance on it and a boy am I happy that I did. Andrew and his team were very welcoming and the establishment was very clean. He was quick to help me narrow down some of my issues with my neck and back and got me adjusted and x-rayed right away. You cannot beat the service that they can provide especially on initial contact versus price. I would recommend it to anybody needing to be adjusted, especially if you do not have insurance.
Dr. Andy is friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate. He listens to his clientās needs and responds accordingly. The online system is easy to navigate and convenient for scheduling. Highly recommend!
Great place to go! I am a former college athlete who decides to stop taking care of himself after retirement. Dealing with back pain ever since but Brenden and Andy have done a phenomenal job helping me. 10/5 stars!
Great team & great care! They have helped me recover very well from the issues Iād been having. Theyāre friendly, patient, and you can tell they care about the health of every single one of their patients! They really take the time to explain whatās going on, how theyāre going to help, and how to take care of yourself as well. Iām thankful for this team and their work! Highly recommend!!!
Professional, attentive, and very in tune with what your body needs. Experiencing great relief in my neck/shoulders which is what I came in for. Highly recommend.
Always kind and attentive to my needs. I have especially appreciated their flexibility with my schedule. Great location for me. They get my recommendation<br><br>They have added a sort of warmup station to loosen up your spine before adjustments. I have come look forward to the warmth in preparation for my appointment.
