Capitol Hill Chiropractic Center

I was suffering strange back pains 3 years ago and nobody found the reason or cure… it went away in a couple months. Now I have been suffering whole body pains for 2 months and again every doctors or specialists I saw found nothing wrong with my body until Dr. David Kaufman from Capitol Hill Chiropractic Center. 15 minutes after I walked in, Dr. Kaufman found exactly what I have and the reason for my body pains. He explained very carefully what is going on with my spine and discussed how I can get better. He is the really good doctor. I have been coming to see him all the way from NY every week. I can never ask any better doctor-​patient relationship than with Dr. David Kaufman. You do not want to mess around your spine. Come to this wonderful chiropractor who will change your life!

Spent $ 275 and 1.5 hours on my first appointment taking xrays and listening to the dr talk, but didn’t even get an adjustment, which was all I wanted and was waiting for, but in the end he «didn’t have time». Wish my old chiropractor didn’t leave DC– my back hurts even more now that I feel like such a sucker. Try someone else and let me know if you’ve got any recommendations!

Dr. David Walls-​Kaufman is on the cutting edge of research and study based chiropractic techniques and physical therapy. He performs manual adjustments — he is a Palmer School graduate. I also benefit from his use of the Biotonix of Canada postural analysis which gave me a super accurate assessment of my posture and the most effective exercise treatment plan along with use of the Pettibone neck system with regular adjustments. I used him through my pregnancy in the past year too.
When you go here, you get so much more than an adjustment. First there is the wobble chair, then a hard foam cylinder on which you roll your spine up and down, then the neck stretch, all pre-​adjustment. These help you loosen and adjust better than you would otherwise, then you get his expert hands and what I call the Tapper gun. Really, don’t let it scare you, he uses it to tap along your spine if there are still any tight places. After the adjustment, he’ll direct you to one of several types of treatments billed as physical therapy.
He takes most insurance and even if its not covered; when family members come in on the same day, the 2^nd member on gets half price. He also teaches Tai Chi on Capitol Hill every Saturday morning, then comes to the office for his Sat. hours. I’ve gone to many chiropractors since I was a teenager with mild scoliosis, now as an adult with some rather chronic neck problems and he is the best I’ve ever had. After going through his program, I now rarely have pain in my neck and am down to 1xmonth maintenance.
