I'm an M.D. and actually am pretty knowledgeable about chiropractic medicine so that when I wrenched my back and possibly broke "something," I wanted first to see a chiro rather than an orthopedic surgeon. Chiros can often diagnose without x-rays or MRIs (as did Dr. Godo - "broken rib, maybe two, bad muscle spasm") and he started treatments during the very first visit. Now I do admit that loosening the muscles holding the cracked ribs was not totally enjoyable BUT when I left the office, I was certainly moving more easily than when I arrived. I asked when I needed to return. The answer really surprised me. "Not needed. Do your elliptical at the health club. Don't do anything that hurts." It is now less than 24 hours from my visit with Dr. G. and I am 90% recovered. Thanks! Great office, great staff! read more

I wish I had Dr Godo in my life earlier - he is so helpful, listening to my every ache, pain and need. He is LITERALLY the best listener, he loves data (lol), and is super into understanding your whole life picture! Every time I come to the office, I am greeted by Rich who is increíble helpful, friendly, and funny! I love this office and I love Dr Godo & Rich! read more

Godo Chiropractic - Chiropractor Humor - gotta love it! - Chiropractors Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I've been seeing Dr. Godo for some time. Every wonderful experience is and has been consistent.

Diverse services from chiropractic to muscle testing. Excellent notification systems and visit and scan reports.

Friendly and professional service all around. I would highly recommend visiting Doctor Godo.

This place sends out mass emails promoting anti-vax propaganda (talking about general vaccination, not covid specific). Stick with what you know - i.e. chiropractic care. Please don't send people emails containing fake news about false vaccination claims. Godo isn't a medical doctor and has no in-depth knowledge of the medical field, yet he oversteps his lane and pretends he does with medical advice like not vaccinating you or your loved ones. Couldn't believe they sent me multiple emails promoting anti-vax. horrifying. Also he promotes a zyto scan which is proven to be a complete hoax that has no scientific merit. Seriously just google it, you'll see it's an old tool that was debunked a long time ago. Yet godo makes recommendations and diagnoses based off the zyto scan "findings"... complete nonsense. The fact people trust him when using that tool is astonishing. If you have any friends who are doctors, ask them about it and they will laugh. He tried to get me to buy some supplement pills based off the zyto reading (using his discount code of course!). Just as an FYI, I went to the doctor after seeing him and told the doctor about godo's diagnosis and recommendation and the doctor said "no no no no, that's not right at all." How this place gets good reviews, I have no clue. Do people buy this disproven, non-science nonsense? Find yourself a responsible chiropractor who doesn't overstep his area of expertise. read more

Great Chiropractor. He's passionate about his practice and patients. Beautiful office in great neighborhood with free street parking.

Quality service! Went in for sciatica issue and felt better after my visit. Very friendly staff.

Very professional, very knowledgable very kind and very good...lol This place diffuses Young Living Oils and it creates a beautiful uplifting vibe. After each treatment you feel that much closer to healing. Dr. Godo knows his practice....Book your session with confidence! read more

Been a patient of Dr. Godo's for a few years now and still today feel lucky I stumbled on to his care. He is an amazing person and one of the best Chiropractors I have seen over the years. In my process to loss weight and workout I managed to seriously injure my lower back. The pain was extreme and I thought it would never end. Dr. Godo ordered x-rays, an MRI, and developed a plan that corrected the issue and I'm so grateful for his care. Thank you can not be said enough.... read more

I've been seeing Dr. Godo for over 20 years for different issues. Despite the commute to the city I will continue to do so. He is an excellent diagnostician and can zero in on what is necessary for pain relief. He is also very knowledgeable about nutrition and exercise, to say nothing about the positive energy he communicates during every appointment. He gets an A+ from me! read more

A few months ago I got got whiplash from a car accident. I was seeing a chiropractor that works in the same office as my amazing massage therapist for the past three months but wasn't getting anywhere with her... I visited Dr. Godo for the first time yesterday...and am feeling very hopeful read more

I've been seeing Dr Godo for years and he is hands down the best Chiropractor I've worked with! He and his staff are exceptionally friendly and thoroughly explain every step of the process. They made my insurance claims completely turn key and they get me copies of all the paperwork I need quickly. Dr Godo's care has made a huge impact on my day to day life through managing pain through chiropractic care and great advice in lifestyle and general health management. I feel better every time I leave his office thanks to his expert care! It helps that Dr. Godo is a tennis player too and understands the stresses I put on my body! read more

Dr. Godo is easily the best AK/Chiropractor I've ever worked with. His practice is focused on getting to the root cause of your issue, rather than managing your pain or symptoms. I can't say how much money I've spent on traditional western docs to try and get to the root of my issues only to be said, "idiopathic" or "nothing life threatening." Dr. Godo flips this approach on it's head entirely, and begins to try and uncover how or why your symptoms are occuring in the first place. He has a profound ability to listen and he truly cares about getting to the bottom of the issue at hand. I would recommend him to anyone looking to find treatment for a chronic issue or even just to get your body back in alignment. Hats off to Dr. Godo and his amazing staff! read more

Jason listened to me and my concerns, then worked his chiropractic expertise...I am already feeling better after one session! I feel very confident in my decision to work with him! read more

Yes, I'm updating old reviews. It doesn't mean I don't go to any new places. Or maybe it does. I've been seeing Dr Godo for a couple of years now, just basically for a tune-up every few months. If I could afford it, I'd see him every month. Each time I leave his office, I'm on a high that lasts for the rest of the day. Even when he does things to me that make me grunt. I've been seeing him regularly enough that we've moved beyond the initial problem I went for, and have moved on to overall health. Of course, if I have a specific problem -- as I did this last visit - he'll address that. Brief anecdote: When I saw him at the beginning of the year, he noticed a misalignment, and asked if I was doing anything that caused me to look down and to the left. (Sounds like "JFK.") Do you sleep on this side, do you face that way when you're watching TV, is your computer screen to the left, so on. No, no, and no. Well he does his correction anyway. I leave his office and catch the bus. I pull out my book and start reading -- down and to the left. When I'm lying on my couch reading -- down and to the left. When I'm in the classroom and have my notes on the desk -- down and to the left. Oh, that down and to the left! Now, does this make him a magic man? No. But he's the only doctor I've had who pays that close attention to what's going on with my body. read more

I was a patient at another Chiropractic clinic in Chicago a few months ago without relief. I started having really intense headaches due to chronic TMJ. I found Dr. Godo through my insurance company, and they got me in pretty quickly. He was really nice, and very helpful. He took plenty of time with me to ask questions and find out what my problems were. He helped my jaw immensely on the first visit, and I look forward to many visits to come. read more

Great for both body pain and allergies. I don't know who he is or where he came from but at minimum he will cure you of at least SOMETHING. I wish I had known about Mr. Godo sooner, he would have saved me thousands in chiro payments over the years. Most just crack snap and pop... Godo does muscle testing, he's actually treating the root of your issue. Oh and as an added bonus, he also cured me of my dairy and pet allergies. His assistant Julie is adorable as well, she's really nice and kind. BTW, I'm writing this review because I discovered him through yelp so I'd figure I'd pay it forward. read more

Both my husband and I are thrilled to have found an applied kinesiologist in Chicago who focuses on both short-term feeling better and long-term healing! Dr. Godo is super-responsive and attentive. So glad to have found him! read more

Dr. Godo is amazing. Not only has he helped with an acid reflux issue, he has helped me with postural and flexibility issues. I haven't felt this good in years! I made him a part of my weekly wellness plan, not because I need to see him that much, because I WANT to see him that much. Every time I get done with whatever we are doing, I feel better than when I went in. Highly recommend!! read more

I am 42 years old and have been seeing Chiropractors since I fell off a horse when I was 13. I have see them all, some good, some bad, NONE LIKE JASON. He didn't put me in the usual positions, pop away and then see you in two days. I mean he did eventually pop me in some of the usual ways but not until he figured out why my back was out of line. for me, I had no gluts, no ass and was walking and running by using my lower back instead of my hamstrings and ass. He helped me to correct this. I AM PAIN FREE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 20 YEARS!! and have been for weeks and weeks and will be until old age really slows me down (decades from now I hope). If you have back pain and want it gone, go see Jason. You have to listen to him and take responsibility for your health, but if you do this you will heal. By the way, I see a couple of negative posts here and at first I was surprised. But I understand it. I went to see him for a kink under my left shoulder blade. So painful! He worked the shoulder a bit but said it was caused by all the crap going on in my lower back, hips, and butt. He spent most of his time working on down there. He then told me if I didn't 't develop my gluts, nothing will get better, especially that kink in my shoulder. So, if you are old school and go see him for your neck and he works on the area that is causing your neck to hurt but doesn't work on you neck per say, then it could be confusing. Also, if he tells you he can't fix your neck until you make some changes or put some work in, than he can't help you the way he helped me, the way he changed my life. In short, Jason is a healer. Because of him I am pain free and jogging again, WOW! Thank you Jason!! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Godo for years. I always look forward to my visits and I always feel great afterwards. His staff are always great and super friendly. If you have any need for a chiropractor, Dr. Godo is definitely the doctor to have. read more

Don't waste your time with this practice. Find a true professional. I'm very disappointed with Dr. Godo. I won't bore you with tales of the micro aggressions that's experienced while working with Dr. Godo but I will say that I found him to be rather unprofessional and passive aggressive in his communication. read more

Dr Godo is fabulous! I went to see him for allergies and general well being. Well so far the results are awesome. He has been great at figuring out what my body was missing. At first when he told me that he was going to do some 'adjustments' I freaked out a little but wow! - what a difference! Highly recommended! read more

Dr. Godo was simply just awesome! Made me feel so comfortable and relaxed the minute I walked in the door. He even offered to help me with another problem I am having with my dry mouth. I've been to their office before to see their massage therapist Anthony who is just as amazing! Their receptionist is calm and at ease and basically the office is a little world of zen the minute you step foot inside! read more

Dr. Godo has the best hands on (pun intended) approach to chiropractic medicine I have ever been involved with. Everything about my appointment was more then satisfactory - from setting up my appointment, office location and hours, services offered. I recommend his services to everyone I know. read more

Excellent and friendly service. Dr Godo has helped me with back pain and tension headaches.

Dr. Jason does an outstanding job connecting with his patients and educating them on how to best take care of the problems they are having. I recently had a foot injury and it has taken a long time to heal - but Jason has been extremely supportive in educating me on what is happening with my foot and how to best heal it so that I can get back to working out at full strength. He is an outstanding doctor who is very focused on taking the best care of his patients. I would highly recommend him and his staff. read more

I am a dedicated weight lifter, and I've been seeing Dr. Godo for about a year now for adjustments. He has a lot of experience and thoughtful recommendations for facilitating injury workarounds and rehab. I have learned a lot from him about how my body works. He also has a great personality, sense of humor, and makes you feel comfortable. read more

In a big city like Chicago, it can be a challenge to find professionals that you can connect with as many places treat patients like widgets. From my first visit, I connected with Dr. Godo. He makes every effort to engage each person that walks into his practice and does a resounding job of informing you, educating you and keeping you in the information loop. I go to see Dr. Godo monthly as part of a regular wellness maintenance routine and am always pleased with my experience from entrance to exit. I would recommend him to anyone seeking wellness care and an experienced hand at overall body health. read more

Dr. Godo is great! I go in for "tune-ups" about every 6 months to a year, and always leave feeling better than when I entered. He has successfully helped me treat my acid reflux. Dr. Godo is a very professional and skilled healer and I highly recommend! read more

I am so happy I found Dr. Godo! He cares so much about my well being and health, he is very attentive to my needs and the improvements I've been having after every visit. I've been seeing him for 3 months now, 2 months every week, 1 month every other week. On a whim I decided I'd go and see what Dr. Godo could do for me, my problem is not really a chiro issue but given his background in kinesiology I decided to give it a shot. I am so glad that I did too; he's determined to fix me. Its like a challenge for him and I truly believe that he'll do all it takes to get me fixed. I feel like going to visit him is the best investment I can take with my health. I will go see him for every ailment I have!! read more

Dr. Godo is a great chiropractor - but he doesn't just crack your back. He wants to check on you and see how your overall wellness is, to make sure the he is holistically taking care of you, he goes through so many steps and checks to make sure he is providing the best level of care that he can. He is a great guy, with a great staff and provides a great experience. I'd suggest him to any and all! read more

I can't thank Dr. Godo enough for making me feel so much better. I went to him after visiting several GI doctors and having no success for the past 9 years. After many years of IBS, gluten intollerance and cramps, bloating, etc that all comes with IBS I was at my whits end! I have had many tests run and have been on so many different types of medication that has made me sick, tired and irritable. After the zyto scan I was aware of so many imbalances within my body. I am currently on the supplements that Dr. Godo has recommended and so far, since I have first started, I have had no side effects, no more symptoms and can eat a variety of foods that I never could before! It's amazing! I hope that I am not speaking too soon as I am still not all the way complete with the supplements but I am almost at the end of my second month and couldn't be happier and healthier! I definitely recommend Dr. Godo. And his friendly staff also doesn't hurt :) read more

Have had many very good experiences being counseled on how to address what was actually bothering me. He is able to see the whole person and while not against the ways of the AMA, is committed to finding a natural, lifestyle and nutrition based approach if possible. Most recent experience: went in fearing an old spinal disc problem was resurfacing after many years, but was soon counseled that I was experiencing a purely muscle, tendon issue and was given a simple exercise to correct the problem. Huge load off my shoulders. He is also connected with one is the finest nutritional supplements companies in the world. read more

I had a very bad experience here. First, they said it was a "free first meeting," but then they proceeded to charge my insurance company. When my insurance company didn't pay for everything, they sent me the bill. Prices were way more than a typical chiro. Also, I awoke the next day to bruises where Dr. Godo had "worked on" my pain. Would not recommend at all! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Godo for a number of years now. I'm a professional musician who suffers from varying degrees of periodic neck, shoulder, arm and back pain, depending on how much performing I do. Dr. Godo has managed my care in a highly accurate and effective manner. I like his comprehensive treatment using Zyto scanning, and along with chiropractic adjustments, he offers suggestions to maintain structural integrity through exercise, yoga, and targeted stretches for the affected areas he treats. He also incorporates high quality supplements and holistic products which promote natural healing. Chiropractic has been so beneficial in my life. I still sometimes cannot believe how much better I feel after an adjustment. Dr. Godo rocks! read more

Dr. Godo is a true knowledgeable professional. I have been his patient for a while and I recommend him highly. I suffer from chronic pain on my legs and his treatments always relieve the pain. His recommendations on natural supplements are a plus in supporting continuous improvement in my general well being. The Zyto scanning is a tremendous help in focusing on the specific malfunctioning issues I bring into his office. His recommendations on exercising and Yoga have helped my flexibility and injuries caused from years of poor health habits and inappropriate physical activities. I have referred a number of friends to Dr. Godo, everyone is extremely satisfied. The office environment is very warm and the staff is friendly, efficient, and supportive. In addition he has a great positive, humorous attitude which is contagious, very helpful in healing the body and soul. I highly recommend him. Livia G. read more

Dr. Godo has helped me with a both neck and shoulder pain/ numbness. He does not take a traditional chiropractic approach but uses A.K. From one treatment with him, my pain and numbness resolved and I now know what to avoid doing in my daily life to prevent the problem from reoccurring. Dr. Godo is also great with nutrition recommendations for resolving internal problems that aren't directly related to the skeletal system. His office is beautiful. read more

My body soaks up stress like a sponge and then shakes it about like a wet dog to any unaffected parts. I had success with an applied kinesiologist in Ohio, and felt this was important to continue in Chicago. Thus, I was elated when I found Dr. Godo. The Zyto Scan (non-evasive, you put your hand on a sensor and it scans you) hides nothing, so if I'm stressed out or something is causing issues, Dr. Godo can see it clear as a bell and help. He does adjustments and recommends supplements if needed. However, he has given me practical strategies to do to help keep my body healthy. In fact, most of his recommendations for me are lifestyle changes that do not cost a dime. Issues he has helped me with are headaches (amazing relief for the ones that weren't associated with jaw clenching), women issues, tightness in my right side, food issues, and stress. Other perks...evening hours and everyone that works there is super friendly. read more
