Indianapolis Pain and Wellness Center

Fantastic experience: due to Dr Johnson’s top notch care I live pain free thanks Doc

Fantastic experience: I was moving and had lifted many heavy things for weeks, including 45 bags of mulch. All of a sudden I had a pain in my lower back and I was in great pain. I went to Chiropractic and Wellness and received an adjustment and laser treatment twice and used ice at home. In a period of 3-4 days I was ok again. They are great and really know what they are doing!! Patricia Cochran

Fantastic experience: i’m new here but it is such a wonderful place. i personally have always been nervous to get my sore neck and back checked bc of the pain, but today will be like third time or so and I adore what they do there. I already do feel a little better, and trust me, i’m a case ‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson always does a great job!!

Fantastic experience: I would like to just say for the record that I have been going to Dr. Johnson for approximately 30 years for various issues. From very aggressive back and hip pain, to just general maintenance and preventive care . Everyone at the office Is extremely professional, kind, caring, and extremely good at their job. Recently, I went in for extreme edema in my legs and feet, and Dr. Steve was a miracle worker. He used a laser treatment and you could see my legs and feet just go back to normal right before my eyes. I can’t thank them enough for all they do there, and I have my daughter and husband going there at various times. Thank you so much for your good work.

Fantastic experience: Ive been going to Dr Johnson for help for years. Shes the BEST Ive found using the Activator Method, to gently help with problems.

Fantastic experience: I love how they seem to really care about my health and helping me get better.

Fantastic experience: I've been with Mary Jo for over 8 years and so thankful I found her. She has alleviated pain in my sciatica, back, neck, and knees. She has massage therapy to lock in your adjustments and I've used all therapists and all are great. Kurt has been great in helping see what is lacking in my body and what vitamins can assist with better health. Front office is spectacular and always there whether by phone or texting via their app. If your looking for someone that has a great practice and truly cares for your wellness go see Mary Jo.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson has my highest recommendation. As a weightlifter, it's especially important to make sure I stay in alignment.

Fantastic experience: Dr J is an amazing chiropractor! Sensitive and Knowledgeable about the body! Add the skill of nutritional support from Kurt, you will get a whole healing!

Fantastic experience: Excellent.

Fantastic experience: Professional-pleasant office, where I go for relief

Negative experience: I was excited to finally get to a Dr and completely disappointed. First visit and no xrays or anything like that even after explaining everything I've been through. No adjustment, just " activator". Left there in the same condition I got there. Thanks for wasting my time Dr. Steve. Snake oil salesman

Fantastic experience: Dr Johnson, Kurt, Becky and staff are awesome. My family and I have been going to Chiropractic & Wellness for many years to get our “attitude” adjustments as well as treatment for daily life issues, including but not limited to, automobile accident and sports related injuries. I highly recommend this office for life long body and personal maintenance!! ❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic experience: Prompt service, appropriate questions and clear answers.

Fantastic experience: BEST CHIROPRACTOR CENTER EVER!! For years I’ve had severe debilitating chronic pain, have used pain medication, & tried every modality, gadget, or treatment I could find over several years without lasting results. I was in severe pain, very depressed & definitely hopeless. My activities, including my ability to work a full time job, were very limited. After a January 2023 car wreck I became a client here (went from my usual debilitated state to an added complete inability to raise my right arm). For weeks I’ve been treated 3X/week by Dr Steve Avitabile (now 2X/week). He uses “The Activator Method” to do safe & gentle adjustments with cutting edge technology that he also taught other chiropractors for years. Dr Steve added 1X/week work with Savannah Fisher (Masters in Kinesiology & CPT) for stretching, posture, home programs and now adding in strengthening exercises, plus weekly therapeutic massage with Becky Troyer CMT, LDHS that has made an incredible difference, & soon I will address my gut health with enzyme nutritionist/digestive health specialist Kurt Johnson. I received a posture pillow & have been measured for custom shoe leveling orthotics to align my feet. The combined wholistic approach from this amazing team of professionals has made a miraculous change in my pain, my health, my energy, my life, my work, my activities, and my quality of life. I’m more hopeful about my life and my potential than I’ve been since my pain started. I recommend this center to anyone who wants a referral to a safe chiropractor with a comprehensive and competent solution to your pain and your health. I’m a trained Occupational Therapist and have been extremely impressed by ALL aspects of this practice!

Fantastic experience: I am very pleased by my results of chiropractic adjustments. Dr. Johnson always finds the areas that need an adjustment. I also get therapeutic massages. I always feel wonderful after these massages. This practice also has kinesiotherapy. With her masters degree in kinesiology, Savannah helps with specific exercises and stretches to help reduce pain while improving my ability to move. I rate this practice all 5's! Thank you all for helping me to continue to live an active life!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Dr. Johnson off and on for more than 20 years. She is a skilled clinician who provides effective care. I’ve never been pressured to purchase a treatment package or pre-pay for treatment. Dr. Johnson makes treatment recommendations based on what’s happening with my body. Shortly after a car accident I needed adjustments 1-2 times a week. Other times I may have an appointment every 1-2 months. She offers wholistic treatment with massage therapists, and nutritional recommendations. I highly recommend Dr. Johnson.

Fantastic experience: Dr Johnson was very professional and showed interest in my overall health. She is doing some research for me to help me with my health issue.

Fantastic experience: This has been my chiropractic care for more years than I can count. I would not trust anyone else. Simply the best

Fantastic experience: Been going to Mary Jo for years. She is amazing without having to distort your body to make the necessary adjustments. She’s literally a spine and joint artist.

Fantastic experience: Service is excellent , really helpful. I recommend this center for averyone

Fantastic experience: So glad to have the wellness center!! Walk in limping, walk out fine. My entire family has used almost every service they provide- from torn muscles to out of alignment….I will never go to another chiropractor.

Fantastic experience: I walked in with a lot of pain and left with much less.

Fantastic experience: This was my first time going to a chiropractor and I was very surprised by the results. Dr. Johnson was able to pin point the exact areas where I was feeling discomfort. I was shocked at how misaligned my body really was, but it was validating to know that there were real reasons why my body aches the way it was. My head also tended to lean to the right but just after my very first adjustment, my head naturally stays straight and I walked out feeling taller! I will definitely keep coming. A very quiet, clean place with friendly and knowledgeable staff!

Fantastic experience: One of best chiropractor I have had. When I pulled my arm out of socket She had it back in 15min did my exercises been going go ever since!!!!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson is fantastic! She quickly and accurately assess areas that need adjusting and provides relief quickly. She and her team provide effective exercises and stretches to continue improvement at home between sessions. I highly recommend Chiropractic & Wellness Center at 96th and Ditch!

Fantastic experience: Dr Johnson, is great and I would recommend her highly to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson and her staff are wonderful, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and do a great job keeping to the scheduled appointment times. I’ve been going to Dr. Johnson for years on a monthly basis to keep my back, neck & hips aligned and I feel great and have very minimal and infrequent discomfort. Prior to that I had been going to a different Chiropractic business and went every week and was usually in extreme pain by the time my next appointment came around. Finding Chiropractic & Wellness and Dr, Johnson was a godsend and helped me get my life back! I also get a massage each month with Lilly which I love.

Fantastic experience: Dr Mary Jo Johnson has been keeping me riding my horse in comfort for years. With back issues dating back decades, she has kept me comfortable and mobile enough to ride and compete in Eventing. Massage services with Becky, Lily and Kriss are integral to this as well, and I've been really happy with how my massages have relaxed tight muscles and restored flexibility, especially after an adjustment. I can't recommend these wonderful professionals any more highly!

Fantastic experience: Always gentle effective adjustments with Dr. Johnson and magnificent massages by Becky!

Fantastic experience: A Healing Place: This is a place where you walk out feeling better than when you walked in. After moving here, I tried two different chiropractors before finding Dr. Johnson. She was able to find what was out of whack and correct it, plus offered preventative exercises so that I can do more with less pain and have been able to reduce my adjustment frequency over time. Kurt has also offered excellent advice that has increased my energy, and Becky's massages are the icing on the cake. All members of the staff are helpful and professional.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson, Kurt, Lyndsey and Lilly have changed my life! Between these guys and PT, I am feeling and moving better than in the last decade. I have had adjustments, therapeutic massage and custom orthotics - all great. Highly recommend!

Negative experience: They do not check if your insurance is in network with them ( well I was told I was in network with them ). Make sure you check it first before signing any papers at the office ( they are not clear with that ). You will have to pay out of pocket after your first session around ($130) then you will get an extra bill! Make sure to call your insurance first.

Fantastic experience: I meet Dr Johnson 20 years age when i had a accident . So the minute I had this one I knew who to call . She got me right back in shape quickly . She is an amazing ,professional , knowledgeable Doctor . She also saw right off that I was dealing with a Lymph problem and Introduced me to Kurt Johnson who took control of the situation and dived right in he has taught me so much . Has gotten my Body back under my control with his laser and supplements. No one would help me till I walked in there office 3 weeks ago . What a 180 degree turn . Thank you so much !!! You are a great team Toni Corsaro

Fantastic experience: I want to express my appreciation of a positive outcome of dramatically reduced pain by the cold laser procedure by Kurt Johnson. I had back fusion surgery in November '19 from L4 to T10. I have had consistent mid-back pain for the past few months - not just when laying down at night but also during the day. After 3 procedures by Kurt Johnson the majority of the pain was gone and the swelling across my back was reduced. That situation allowed me to increase my rehab with a trainer to strengthen my back muscles. The combination of effective pain treatment and rehab to strengthen my back muscles has been very beneficial.

Fantastic experience: Is the ONLY chiropractor I will see now after trying several different options. I feel very confident in her ability to correct my issues which is more than I can say for past chiropractic visits from others.

Fantastic experience: Dr Johnson has taken really good care of me for many years now; my lower back and other occasional issues are under control with her treatments. Lily has been especially helpful in the past few months providing massage therapy that is amazingly insightful and effective; she is spot-on with her ability to address problem areas - many of which I was totally unaware until she helped identify them.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic people doing great work in this office. I have had back pain since my mid-20's. The chiropractic work helped, but then Kurt was able to help me figure out I had a wheat intolerance that was the root cause of my problems. If you are looking for a great support system for your health needs, look no further!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson is an amazing chiropractor and an amazing woman. Her staff is great, everyone is kind and there to be of service. Dr. Johnson will help you get your whole wellness life together, and will do it with kindness and care. I would send anyone here.

Negative experience: Waited until my second trip for a review...and I'm amazed...no Back Pain!! More impressive is no Pain Medication!! Whoops... Went to a different chiropractor and now my ailment is cured!!

Fantastic experience: Great staff and expert professionals. Can't speak highly enough of them all!

Fantastic experience: Great at what they do! Friendly/comfortable environment and they are virtually on time for each appointment I've had.

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable and welcoming staff!

Fantastic experience: I'm so glad I took the action to schedule an appointment with Dr. Johnson, she is fabulous. I had always been skeptical of Chiropractic care, but yet, I have my horses adjusted! Anyway, I suffer from vertigo, and then I had a neck injury, from riding. It was causing me daily nausea and headaches. I was really miserable and having a hard time focusing. My neck was out of alignment causing muscle tension, which was impacting my nervous system. I felt my that my quality of life was declining. I decided to make an appointment with Dr. J, and wow, I feel amazing. I have not felt this good in a really long time. No more headaches, my mind is clear. Not to mention, my horses are going so much better because they are not compensating for my body being out of alignment. I am a true believer. My husband has seen the difference in how I feel, so he is planning to schedule an appointment to get started. The staff is wonderful, and I highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson and her staff are not only caring and knowledgeable, but they are always willing to work with you no matter the health challenge. I've been a patient for over 15 years along with my family. We have received great healing in many areas of our health with Dr. Johnson's chiropractic, NAET and enzymatic therapy. She is a wealth of information in whole body healing and is passionate about helping others at all times in my experience. I love the activator method she uses because I experience very little trauma to the joints and muscles around the areas treated. It helps me heal faster and build up strength without hindrance in recovery exercises. She can be trusted to have your best health goals in mind and to help you get to the optimal "FEEL GOOD" that you need. Of course, it is always up to the patient to follow through. Because of her staff and her methods of helping me - I have no qualms about referring her to anyone with a need in healing in chiropractic care and the services she makes available. They are simply THE BEST.

Fantastic experience: I first went to Mary Jo Johnson around 1997 or 1998. I was looking for a good chiropractor to just take away back pain but I received so much more. She's an expert on pain, nutrition, and all things about health. This is what I know about Mary Jo- she genuinely cares about people and your well-being. She will help you any way she can. She listens well, asks a lot of questions and helps you minimize the pain and maximize the energy in your life. My health, energy, and pain for almost 20 years have all been a lot better because of Mary Jo.

Fantastic experience: Without chiropractic care, I know I would have been in a wheelchair 10 years ago. This specific type of chiropractic adjustment is imperative for me with my particular orthopedic condition. Dr. Johnson is expert in this field. She seems to have a Sixth Sense enabling her to make the right adjustment the first time. Her staff are worth their weight in gold. They are always helpful, cordial and professional willing to change an appointments or just to "chat" a while. I couldn't ask for better understanding and honest support from everyone in this office. Thank you all....

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson has been a blessing to me, my husband and my 90 year old mother. She is always on schedule, always listens to what we say our problems are, and does her very best to help solve the issues. Dr. Johnson has a kind and gentle spirit and it is easy to tell she loves helping people. When I first starting taking my mother for appointments with Dr. Johnson she was not so sure about chiropractic. But after a couple of falls, much pain and Dr. Johnson treating her, she is a believer! And looks forward to regular appointments. Thank you Dr. Johnson and staff!

Fantastic experience: I have been going here for almost six years. I had chronic back and neck pain. Through these treatments and Becky's remarkable therapeutic massage, they made my quality of life so much better. They were able to alleviate my pain so that I rarely had to take any meds.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Johnson is a top notch Chiropractor who helped me solve my health issues naturally, and more. I have always known that I was capable of being happy and healthy when I came to her feeling like I wasn't quite right, but with her help I now feel better than I ever expected! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a drug free, surgery free approach to their health.

Fantastic experience: I have to let everyone know that enzyme therapy WORKS! I was told my medical doctor that the results of my Boston Heart blood test showed that I have a particular kind of cholesterol that is hereditary in nature and was climbing higher with each test. She wanted me to start taking a Statin. I of course, didn't want to, knowing that they can cause as many problems as the ones they solve in the long run. So, I talked to Becky, she did the research and recommended that I take Vascular, which I did, along with adding Vit E and Flaxseed Oil to my daily regime. My checkup with my doctor loomed....and I had decided that if my cholesterol did not improve, I would go on a statin. BUT, THE BAD INDICATORS DROPPED OVER 300 POINTS INTO THE NORMAL RANGE!!!!!!! I was so very excited! All of my other markers also improved, and my medical doctor was so excited that I am to continue what I am doing, and see her in 9 months! I can honestly say, enzyme care is not as cheap as the statin route. But this is my philosophy. You can pay it now and have good health.....OR you can pay it later with multiple manufactured meds (ones that treat the side effects of the meds you go on.....it becomes a vicious circle!) I know that I am a firm believer in enzyme therapy and along with chiropractic care, it will be my first go to treatment whenever possible. Thank you to Becky and Dr. Johnson for keeping me well as I age......!

Fantastic experience: Warm, friendly atmosphere. Dr Johnson was very helpful in answering all of my questions, and was always on schedule. I fell on the ice years ago and was told by a surgeon that I would need a shoulder replacement. Dr Johnson, after examining me, determined that the problem was in my neck, and after a few treatments, the pain is greatly reduced. I am so happy with the results that I will continue to seek her help first if I incur other issues.

Fantastic experience: There are some things in life you just look forward to and going in to get an adjustment and massage is one of them for me! The experience is wonderful and serene here. Dr. Johnson is one of the nicest most energetic person you would ever meet and she really knows what she's doing! If you ever thought about getting a massage, get one here! Becky is awesome! I highly recommend this office.
