“Dr. Kim has always been very helpful to me ever since I started seeing him several years ago. He has brought me through some challenging physical problems (primarily related to my lower back) and has brought me to the place of being able to be physically active without any pain. For this I am very thankful to Dr. Kim and his office staff.”

About Dr. Huichul Kim
Dr. Kim graduated with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic, Davenport, Iowa, in 2003 and continued to pursue health-related studies in graduate school. He has taught chiropractic as an assistant professor in the Department of Chiropractic at HanSeo University in South Korea. After six years of teaching, he practiced at a spine and pain clinic in Seoul and a neurosurgery clinic in Incheon, South Korea.
Many years of experience have provided him with the ideal training to offer his patients a truly holistic and integrated approach to managing not only their physical health but also their general mental and emotional well-being.
Essentially, he cares for patients with health problems of the neuromusculoskeletal system, which includes nerves, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons, using spinal adjustments, physical therapy, massage therapy, therapeutic exercise, and other techniques to manage patients' health concerns.
Dr. Kim’s personal philosophy is to treat each patient individually, providing them with a comprehensive plan that sets them up for long-lasting success in their overall health while helping them maintain active and productive lifestyles. He addresses a wide range of musculoskeletal ailments such as whiplash from auto accident injuries, neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, slipped discs, pinched nerves, sciatica, postural deformity, headaches, repetitive strain injury, carpal tunnel, fibromyalgia, plantar fasciitis, and more. His treatment approach is natural, complementary, hands-on, drug-free, and surgery-free—supporting the health of your whole family, from children to the elderly.
The professional team in his office is well-versed in handling auto accident claims and is multilingual, offering services in Spanish, Chinese, and Korean.

The doctor is great. But the office staff is not, especially the receptionist…. She doesn’t smile, talks like she was forced to work there, and the best part is she’ll reschedule your appointments weekly at her convenience without telling you. I book my appointments ahead of time for a reason. I have a newborn and can’t just come and go as she please, so sadly I won’t be going to this practice anymore and don’t recommend it. It’s rude to accommodate other patients if I booked my time ahead and frankly who knows if she’s racist.
April 28, 2026Nilakshe W.Verified patient
Felt better after the first visit!
April 21, 2026Judy B.Verified patient
So I really hate to write this unfortunately, my experience at the actual office was great but unfortunately, after he did my two adjustments, I ended up in the ER three different days because of intense neck and back pain after he did my adjustments I had never expected that to happen. It was the worst experience of my life and now stuck With three ER bills because he did an adjustment without actually doing any x-rays or looking at me really so just a fair warning?
