Hejny Chiropractic

Jul 2020

You could say that after my past experiences with chiropractors and medical doctors that I was a skeptic. I work in the construction trades and my job can be strenuous and very physically demanding. Soreness and stiff muscles kind of just come with the job. For the past five years now I have struggled with shoulder and neck pain, along with Headaches pretty much on a daily basis. I started seeing Dr. Hejny at the beginning of June and am happy to say that the endless cycle of morning headaches has stopped!! Since my 3rd visit I haven’t had one! Dr. Hejny’s treatments were able to pinpoint the areas that were overlooked in the past. Thank you so much for this relief and I look forward to continuing treatment with you. P.S. The staff are very kind and fun to chat with Thank you Josh Trutwin

Today was my third appointment with Dr. Hejny and my second adjustment. I can't begin to tell you how much better I feel already!! I also feel so validated--- Dr. Hejny knows where my pain and discomfort is before I even tell him. It's important for me to say--- he's not your typical "neck crack'n chiro". He's so gentle and uses methods differently than the old school experiences I had growing up. So, if you've been to a chiro and had a bad experience or just didn't feel like it worked-- try Dr. Hejny. He will not disappoint!

I'm a massage/shiatsu therapist for a major healthcare system here in the Twin Cities. I first heard about Dr. Hejny from a client of mine who presented with a hip issue, seemingly out of the blue. I worked on him for over a year with this issue as did another massage therapist who specializes in postural restoration but we could not make his hip feel better for more than a day or two. Finally the day came when he announced to me that his hip pain was miraculously gone. He went on to explain with much joy and near befuddlement that he'd gone to see a chiropractor who specialized in "atlas adjustment" and that he was laid on his side on a table and a small metal rod the size of a pencil came down and tapped him painlessly behind his ear. When he got up, his hip pain that had been plaguing him for so long was gone. I have to admit, I was a little incredulous. But he gave me Dr. Hejny's information and I did a little research. As a body worker I have a pretty good understanding of anatomy but I truly had no idea that our Atlas bone, aka C1, that sits just below our skulls, cannot be adjusted by hand with any kind of accuracy and that although I've been seeing chiropractors regularly since I was a teenager mine had never been addressed, or even mentioned. It was very interesting and compelling information, but, as with so many things in life, I quickly forgot about it and carried on. About a year later I was working on a nurse practitioner who asked me if I'd ever heard of Orthogonal Chiropractics. I said I had but I'd since forgotten about it. She gushed and highly recommended that I consider seeing Dr. Hejny saying "It's a total game changer." Not a week later I had another nurse bring it up again, this time saying "He's amazing! It will change your life." Now, when you hear such things, you really must pay attention so I took my cue from the universe and this time did some serious research, learning all I could. It became quickly evident that this was a brilliant, stupidly obvious but completely overlooked, simple approach to body alignment. I then started noticing how many of my clients, who were complaining of knee, hip, low back, foot, etc. issues, often had necks that did not quite line up with their spine. I began asking as they laid face up on my table and I sat at their heads looking down their bodies if they thought their head felt straight and lined up with their spine. Most would say yes. I would then take their heads and shift it to line up squarely and inevitably the client would find that uncomfortable and report as feeling crooked. Hm! I also started noticing how most people's leg lengths were different so I began recommending many of my clients go see Dr. Hejny, even though I'd never even so much as spoken to him. As more and more of my clients saw him I began hearing, feeling and seeing amazing things with them. Again, I was hearing "It's a total game changer" or "he has given me my life back" and they were so grateful for my recommendation to see him. My clients kept encouraging me to go but I didn't feel the need until I began having some serious issues that no stretching or massage could fix. Finally, I had to go. Without making this review far too long for anyone to read (wait, did that happen about 3 paragraphs back?! My apologies...but, in for a penny, in for a pound as they say!) my experience was exceptional in every aspect, and in many ways I would never, ever have anticipated. First of all, meeting Dr. Hejny was pure joy. I could see and hear the passion he has for what he does. He knows that he is doing exactly what he was put on this earth to do and that what he is doing is far beyond normal chiropractics. You can clearly see that the relief he is providing for so many who thought there was no relief to be found fills his soul. He is incredibly intelligent and understands the body and all the intricate relationships within. He is compassionate, patient an
