I read the reviews and I can not begin say how sick I am of this. My wife, children, and I have been getting adjusted for years. I have known Dr Jackson personally for over 20 years and this is outrageous. First, the review with Charlie. There has been countless times I have laid face down on the table and he has put his hand on my bare back, on L4-5, and pushed against my spine while dropping the end of the table, where my legs are, to decompress that area. He uses his fingers against the spine to see where the herniated discs are and the bare skin is necessary for an accurate read. At NO point, is this in ANY way, a sexual touch. Get real! He is a very kind and loving man faithful to his wife for 50 years+. I stand against these false allegations. read more

At the very least the guy in incredibly unprofessional... I went there in 2003.. I will describe my experience . But to those that think he is innocent because it never happened to you or because he kept his doors open... remember that the Doctor for Michigan State abused his patients with the parents right in the room!!!.. and he didn't abuse every patient!!! I seen the chiropractor for lower back pain.. my husband also seen him the same day because we had a new patient buy one get one coupon. I'm not sure all of the procedures I had done that day... but I remember the adjustment that crossed the line... he laid my on the table for a stretch.. face up... he cross one of my knees up and over to twist me. laid his whole body on me with his face close between my face and neck.. and gave me 3 body thrust with his pelvic on my butt.. he then switched legs and did the same thing to the other side... a little less close to the face this time.. I remember how I felt that was really not right!! I've been to chiropractors before.. and I've had something like that stretch before.. but never with the pelvic thrust and laying their whole body on top of me!!! I remember sitting up after that just feeling stunned and frankly grossed out... He then worked on my husband who had some shoulder pain. He asked my husband to remove his shirt.. stating he needed to see if his shoulders were even. he then started complimenting my husband's muscle and talking about how good of shape he was in.. he felt his muscle on chest, shoulders, and back saying he was very athletic and took great care of himself... When leaving I told be husband "You know he basically was humping me to do that adjustment..." My husband response was "Yeah he was weird.. we aren't coming back" I'm sharing now because as I was talking to my husband about it I was saying things like "He just humped me" like as if it wasn't a big deal... but there is no way that I could sit silently watching all these comments everywhere about how there is no was this guy would ever do anything like that!! I can see how a women would go back more than once... because when he is done with you, you question "was that weird" Even when explaining to my husband we both explained it off as that's how he must do it.. with all his body weight or something? So please don't judge a woman that this happened to more than once.. I went to the police station yesterday... yes for something that happened over a decade ago... I felt weird about it... but I felt right doing it... read more

I and my entire family have been going since I was a child, I have never had a single issue nor had anyone I know! He's quick with his adjustments the doors always stay open he doesn't do the exams the women in the front so so I'm not sure how he'd have time to do anything being claimed. I'd still go to him in spite of all this because he has helped my family so much! Helped my grandfather from having dangerous surgery and myself! Of course you're going to get people coming forward there's always people jumping on the band wagon. He's incredibly professional in my opinion and I can can call and be seen the same day. He's the only person that has ever helped my pain and migraines and now I might have to find a new Dr or just suffer. read more

To preface this review, I would like to state that this post is not motivated by revenge or anger, but out of concern for the potential suffering of others. I was physically assaulted by Dr. Jackson, and I filed a report with the Department of Licensing & Regulatory Affairs. My treatments with Dr. Jackson had initially been going well. The assault occured during a routine appointment that was unrelated to an adjustment procedure. Dr. Jackson is an extremely friendly and attentive personality within his office, which is what made his assault on me all the more startling and confusing. This said, if you or anyone you know has suffered questionable or inappropriate behavior by Dr. Jackson as I have, I would encourage you to be brave and report these experiences.

#metoo I sought chiropractic care from Dr. Jackson at this office several years ago and he was inappropriate with me both verbally and physically. It was NOT during or any part of the routine adjustment, or guised as an attempt to help me with potential dizziness, whatsoever. His actions took place after the appointment and all procedures were 100% complete, but before I left the room, and he made very sure to be quick and quiet about it with my relatives only on the other side of the doorway. I would not go back to him after that day. I never reported what happened because I didn't think anyone outside of my family would believe me, and frankly, I was very stunned by his actions. He has a larger-than-life personality and brags incessantly about being a "Christian" which many people erroneously and automatically equate with being a harmless human, so between my shock and how I assumed people viewed him, it just seemed like I would be quickly dismissed. But, seeing the reports come out and other women come forward, it gave me the courage to at least share my experience here. I am unsure if I should disclose any more details online being that I haven't reported my experience to the authorities... yet. It was clear he felt very comfortable and confident with conducting himself inappropriately and aggressively with me, so I am sad but not very surprised he has done similar and worse things both before and after me. I hope every single person that has been assaulted feels encouraged to speak up and report their experience to the authorities. *** While this is separate from what I am referring to with my above comments, I too had Dr. Jackson tell me that he would like to show me off at some chiropractor convention. I was puzzled by this being how unwell I was when I came to see him, so I couldn't place his comment in the context of being a successful case study worthy of sharing with other professionals in his field, and yet his jovial enthusiasm when expressing his desire to "show me off" also would not have been an emotional match for presenting me as a failed or difficult case. I also wondered if taking patients to a professional convention was commonplace, as I have never had any other chiropractor, medical, or alternative medical professional mention taking me to their professional meetings - the whole thing puzzled me. He did also express appreciation/notice for my "fit" physicality. When I read a nearly identical experience from the other Yelp reviewer, Charlie, it made my heart sink and I knew I had to post something here. He also made comments about how soft my skin was, especially "compared to some of the alligators he has to touch" (referencing his other patients) and he told me he would havemy photo hanging in his locker if we were in high school. Maybe someone could write that off just a failed and poor choice at "humor" as I did at the time, but both his tone and smirk was very overtly expressing a "crush-like/flirtatious" attitude. Sensualizing rapport with patients is not at all the same as professional warmth and friendliness. This type of "weirdness" alone wouldn't be enough to make me report someone so I don't want to make a mountain out of a single detail, but it did make me uncomfortable and seemed very disrespectful towards me and his other patients. It also seems worth including being that there were larger and more problematic behaviors he displayed following these "weird" interactions. On a similar point, he also suggested more than once that we should hang out and "split a pizza together" outside of our scheduled appointments someday. I was a patient for less than 4 months and we had no business-related affiliations, so meeting outside of office hours was not aligned with any scope of our level of acquaintance with one another. Again, puzzling, but not assault. Mind you, I am a young adult woman, well out of high school and I never expressed interest in "hanging out." Again, these unprofessional and inappropriate comments were separate from the more severe physical and verbal aggressions at the heart of my review and my disturbing experience of this person. My heartfelt compassion to anyone who has been harmed or frightened by this man, especially while in a vulnerable state. I extend my compassion to his family, friends, and colleagues as well, who never saw this side of him and are now dealing with the shock and upset of this full reality. read more

I went there 3 times a week. Then 2 times a week finally down to 1 time a week for 2 years. He was kind, very professional and helped heal my injury. I wish he was still open because I would still go there. I never ever witnessed anything other than a professional man doing his job. read more

I have been having a very healing experience at Jackson Chiropractic after dealing with strange shooting pains in my spine, and more pain after being on my feet for more time than I could handle. Dr. Jackson has a very caring attitude, and that is a great first step. He uses the latest in equipment for diagnosing and treating back problems, which are really much more than just back pains. After an adjustment, I am lighter and more balanced, feeling fine! I am on the one year plan, which gives structure to the healing process, and is economical for me. I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Jackson if you are serious about healing. read more

While Dr. Jackson is a friendly person, his business is operated in a way that its sole intent is to nickel and dime the patient. Dr. Jackson has a tendency to x-ray the patient far more than is safe or necessary. This is done under the guise that he is checking for 'changes' in the spine of his patient, but it is meant as a method of billing the insurance company for a premium service. Spinal manipulation is not enough for Dr. Jackson, he endeavors to add as many 'extras' as possible for those he 'serves' (and I use that term loosely). In fact, numerous trips to his facility can worsen or hasten your deterioration via frequent manipulation. This can cause long-lasting and/or permanent damage to your spine. Sadly, frequent manipulation can encourage your spine to lose its 'memory' and the vertebrae will no longer stay in place as they're supposed to. Hence, it requires manipulation, again and again, to sustain itself in a method that keeps the patient comfortable. Please exercise great caution when considering to see Dr. Jackson or any chiropractor that encourages you to come back repeatedly in a short period of time - they're only helping themselves (with your money) and not you (the patient). If you question this, I encourage you to do quantitative research on frequent spinal manipulation and the damages associated with said practice. read more
