"This is the first review I have ever left for any product or service because it is that deserving of praise. I have seen multiple chiropractors over the last twenty years for a variety of issues. Dr. Jon is by far the most knowledgeable medical professional I have ever been around. He is truly skilled at his craft and I am in awe at how much better my body feels every time I leave his office. I haven’t been to any other chiropractor in Bozeman, but there is no need to look any further."

Dante Dimercurio

"Absolutely the best chiropractic place around. Dr Jon has been wonderful. He has helped get our daughter back to running and competing again. We could not have done it without Jon's knowledge and expertise."

Kamae Meier

"Okay, I have already reviewed Dr Jon Wilhelm before, but because he is so outstanding and such a miracle worker I felt the need to write again. I originally went to him for a sprained ankle and he performed miracles on it!! I'm about to leave for Nepal for a Stage Race and my feet and back were all locked up and hurting, so I wanted to see Dr. Jon again before I left. Not only did he perform miracles on both my feet, but he worked through my whole body, including my knee, back and neck and I feel like a completely new woman. My whole body felt so locked up before I saw him and my feet had burning and throbbing and now I feel completely free. If you have any type of sports injury I would highly recommend him!!"

Wendy Newman

"After dealing with chronic Achilles tendinitis for almost 3 years and seeing several PTs, Dr. Wilhelm completely healed it after 6 weeks of treatment. I absolutely recommend this clinic!"
