Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Chiropractic First, Dr. Nick Krause, Dr. Chris Hartley and Tony Parks Chiropractic emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center.

Fantastic experience: Tells you exactly what he was doing how I was feeling after my first appointment and actually told me what he was doing next and breathing exercises and I always feel wonderful when I leave
Fantastic experience: Dr Nick is so comprehensive and thorough in his approach to caring for his patients!!! I feel like a million bucks!!
Fantastic experience: Always best experiences with Dr. Nick ! Won't go to any other chiropractor even my son who lives in FL will only get adjusted while home in MN by Nick!
Fantastic experience: I had such pain when I walked in and very little pain when I left! I was thankful someone had to cancel and I could jump in to their spot. It’s incredible how much better I feel! Thank you, Tony Parks!
Fantastic experience: Nick is great. He listens to what’s bothering you. He’s not pushy nor does he try to lock you in a plan. I highly recommend Dr Krause and the team at Chiropractic First!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Chiropractic First for 16 years. If I could give 10 stars I would. Dr Krause has helped me through a long navigation of pain management. He is extremely thorough and compassionate with his patients. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He has also helped my daughter over the years with adjustments and we both agree that he will ALWAYS be our go-to for Chiropractic care.
Fantastic experience: Dr Tony is the best chiropractor I’ve ever had. I’d rate 10/10 if I could.
Fantastic experience: Great service and experience and feeling so much better! Thank you to Tony
Fantastic experience: Chris Hartley is a great chiropractor. I made a mistake waiting a couple months with back pain in the past and paid the price. I went in recently with a tweak in the back and he dialed it back in perfectly. Fast service, no pressure for a program. He solves the problem and doesn’t push for extra appointments. He solves the problem and sends you on your way, I highly recommend and trust.

Fantastic experience: Tony has always been my go to cracker! He is big enough to handle this old broken cowboy! Good job by all..
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Dr Nick for a number of years now and he has helped and continues to help me with my back issues. I am thankful for all he does.
Fantastic experience: Understood my problem. Discussed a plan of action to address. Left confident I am on the way to healing & feeling better
Fantastic experience: Called in for some back issues and was initially set up for the following day. They called shortly after and had me seen within a couple hours. First time here and I’ll definitely be back.
Fantastic experience: Best adjustment ever. Treats the root cause of the problem.
Fantastic experience: The people and Chiropractic First did a great job helping me with the claim process for care and more importantly they listened to my concerns. I felt heard and they were willing to look into all of my health concerns.
Fantastic experience: Chris did an excellent job with my first adjustment. Would highly recommend their services.
Fantastic experience: Awesome experience. 5 stars. I've been going to chiropractors since 1995. Dr. Chris is thorough and did an amazing job. Highly recommend him. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I always get the best chiropractic care, from Dr Nick! He always listens to my concerns and has great advice, in return! Stacey, at the front desk, is always willing to help with any scheduling, billing or insurance questions, also! Highly recommend Chiropractic First!
Fantastic experience: I had been suffering from pain in my back and neck since 2014 and Dr. Chris did exercises for my back and neck and scheduled 8 treatment sessions for me, and I felt the pain disappear from the first appointment with Dr. Chris. He found that my left leg was slightly longer than my right, and he did exercises and they became equal in length. I advise anyone who suffers from back, neck, or shoulder problems to go directly to them and you will find a big difference after they finish the exercises. Thank you guy’s so much
Fantastic experience: Dr Krause is AMAZING! I have tried several chiropractors over the years and he is the best! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: FROM THE FRONT DESK ON BACK THEY ARE THE BEST THAT ANYONE COULD ASK FOR.
Fantastic experience: I have been relying on chiropractic therapies to address various back issues for approximately 30 years. While I do have my preferred chiropractors, they have usually been located outside of Rochester. Recently, I decided to give Chiropractic First and Dr. Nick a chance. I was fully prepared for a potentially cumbersome process, expecting to go through multiple steps, including X-rays and extensive paperwork, just to receive what I anticipated would be an intense massage-like treatment. To my pleasant surprise, my experience at Chiropractic First was quite different. All I had to do was provide my insurance card, fill out a brief questionnaire, and I was promptly attended to by Dr. Nick. After a friendly and concise conversation, Dr. Nick immediately began employing the hands-on techniques that I've grown accustomed to from the small-town chiropractors I've seen over the years. What was even more refreshing was the absence of unnecessary X-rays (unless absolutely necessary) and bureaucratic red tape. Instead, I found myself in a welcoming environment with a doctor who genuinely listens to your needs and concerns, then promptly devises a personalized treatment plan that suits you. I highly recommend Chiropractic First and Dr. Nick!!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to chiropractic 1st for 30 years they are the best
Fantastic experience: Dr Nick helped my body recover from a long hard weekend much of which was on concrete. I could hardly walk in the morning, but after an adjustment I wanted to dance my way home.
Fantastic experience: He’s the best in town I recommend him to anyone who’s haven discomfort
Fantastic experience: Dr Tony is awesome. I went in as a new patient and am going to be returning. He told me what he was doing at every adjustment. The massage table is awesome. I would recommend him to anyone.
Fantastic experience: My 10 year old dancer had sudden intense pain in her back when she sat. Dr. Chris got us in immediately and was so good with explaining everything to her. She’s not an easy one to relax but he put her at ease and was so good with adjusting exactly what needed adjusting! I couldn’t be happier the kindness shown by everyone at Chiropractic First Wellness Center!
Fantastic experience: My first visit and from the moment I stepped in the door I knew I had come to the right place. Was promptly greeted, was seen on time, and Dr. Nick Krause’s adjustments were just what I needed. Highly recommend. I have found what I was looking for.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Nick is amazing! The only place I will go for chiropractic adjustments.
Fantastic experience: Dr Tony was great. It was my first time at Chiropractic First and the adjustments he did on both my upper and lower back has given me some relief. I will need a couple more appointments but I learned not to wait a long time before getting treatment like I did. Chiropractic works! Thanks!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Chris is awesome. Always fixes the problem and has a great personality, knowledge and wizard-like healing powers.
Fantastic experience: After my chiropractor of many years retired I was referred to Dr. Nick by a friend. I am ao happy that I listened to that referral. Staci was wonderful when I called with all my questions and to schedule the appt. It's hard to switch doctor's after so many years, but Staci and Dr. Nick immediately put me at ease.

He explained what was going to happen. No surprises. Just relief from years pain ! Thanks Doc Can't wait for next visit!
Fantastic experience: I received excellent service. I’m in town for a family member’s medical. And was in bad need of a chiropractor. Everyone I met was awesome.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Tony does excellent work. Whatever symptoms or movement issues I describe, from my neck to my feet, he knows just where to look. I go in there feeling stiff and sore, he quickly finds and corrects the problem(s), and I walk out feeling great. AND there was no attempt to rope me into a long treatment plan and payment schedule, which I had absurdly experienced at another local chiropractic clinic.
Fantastic experience: Always satisfied with my experiences at Chiropractic First.. respectful knowledgeable and all 3 Dr.s are great at what they do .. I don't always go in and not have to come back the same week but after an adjustment or 2 I am usually good to go til my next pain... ya.. I am a bad patient I come in when it hurts to much.. thankfully they never give me a hard time and I get better ..

Fantastic experience: Nick has been my Chiro on and off throughout the last 10 years.

Terry so glad you choose us to start your chiropractic journey. We are glad that we have provided you with an excellent experience
Fantastic experience: I was going to vitality but switched to here when I heard I could use my insurance here.. and I really wish I came her sooner! I liked vitality and their friendliness but dr chris seemed to take his time and I didn’t feel like I was being popped all over quickly then escorted out. I appreciated that so much and didn’t necessarily have that experience at vitality.
So glad that Brigitte you were able to make the switch and that we are able to help you the way you want to be helped.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Chris is great! I had a great experience during my first visit. From scheduling to patient intake. Everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend this chiropractic office, and I plan to refer any friends and family to them.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Tony is a top notch chiropractor, the whole office is professional and very friendly. They do a great job!
Fantastic experience: Dr Krause is an amazing chiropractor. I have had extreme pain and he can take it away!! It’s a miracle for me to have found out about him. My shoulders were having issues from side sleeping. He fixed me again Hooray today is a much better day!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Nick and the staff are first-class. Extremely grateful for skilled and caring chiropractic care in Rochester.
Thank you very much, Eric!
Negative experience: First of all the hours are so hard to work around with my schedule. Secondly, Lori made me feel very uncomfortable with how she handled something that had nothing tot do with me from years ago, and is now refusing to have me as a customer. It's okay though I will take my business else where for massage and not recommend anybody get a massage done here.
Lori, we appreciate the time for the review. Unfortunately, you reviewed the wrong office! We are a chiropractic clinic not a massage therapist office, and you are reviewing a massage therapist that rents a space from us. We do not control her prices, hours or policies and this sounds like a personal family matter that should not be reviewed on a public forum anyway. We would love it if you would remove your review for this office as it has nothing to do with us. Thanks
