    I went to Dr. Kauf after I swung a golf club and felt a sharp pain in my lower back. I have had pain before but not like this. He got me in that day after my co-worker who I was golfing with suggested him. He drove me to his office and had to help me get into his office! Dr. Kauf did an exam and took films of my lower back. It was determined that I have a degenerative disc. He treated me that day with ice, stimulation, and some gentle muscle work. I started get chiropractic adjustments over the next month and am now pain free. My golf game has also improved because I am much more flexible and strong in my lower back.

    The best chiropractor in the city. Hands down. In my life, I've visited 6 chiropractors Dr. Michael Kauf is the most thorough and competent, by far. What I like most is his professionalism, including how he consistently honors his appointment time (more than any doctor of any kind I've dealt with in my life). Also, there are different techniques to spinal manipulation. A lot of chiropractors have to put their body weight on you for adjustments. I am not a big fan of that. Dr. Kauf is physically strong enough that he will very rarely have to do this. As an extra, he's a pretty funny guy and a good listener when you have an issue. The office staff is also very friendly and competent and able to run the ship on the off chance Dr. Kauf is not in. Overall, it's everything I could want in a chiropractor.

    I just wanted to thank Dr. Kauf for getting me through the marathon last weekend. My lower back and knees were very sore from marathon training. I decided to see Dr. Kauf and he made me custom fitted orthotics for both my running shoes and heels. That, with some ultrasound and the chiropractic adjustments made a huge difference. I finished my first marathon Sunday and actually felt decent on Monday! I saw him today for a post race adjustment! If you are a runner you should check him out.

    I went to Dr. Kauf with severe lower back pain. My wife also saw him with neck pain. He got us both better in a few weeks. His staff was great and he is always available! I told him that I would let everyone know because he does a wonderful job! Thanks Dr. Kauf!!

    I was introduced to Chicagoland Chiropractic by a friend of mine that had seen Dr. Kauf (the owner) in the past for lower back issues. I went to him after I couldn't stand the pain in my neck any longer. He examined me, xrayed me and came up with a plan that consisted of stim pads (like an electric massage! I wish I had one at home!), stretches and adjustments. I felt better right away and contunued until I was 100% better about 6 weeks later. I still choose to go in from time to time for a "tune up"! I really appreciate his skills, staff and making me feel comfortable! I would refer anyone in need!

    Dr. Kauf treated me last week for severe lower back pain that traveled into my legs. He diagnosed me with sciatica and has really helped me a ton. A nice guy, with great touch! Very professional and caring. X-rays were taken on site and they got me in same day! I would suggest anyone with back or neck pain check him out!

    I found Chicago's best Chiropractor. Dr. Michael Kauf has really helped with my neck and lower back pain. I sit at a desk as a graphic artist and was suffering from extreme neck and lower back pain. The neck pain traveled down my shoulders. Dr. Kauf took xrays, defined the problem and treated me with chiropractic and soft tissue therapy. I feel like a new person. If you are reading this, you are probably in pain too and I really suggest calling Dr. Kauf! Mark

    DR. KAUF IS THE BEST!!!!!! I met Dr. Michael Kauf at a charity event last year and my husband who has known him for years (as his patient) introduced me to him because I was experiencing neck and back pain. The neck pain was occurring daily when at my computer at work. My low back pain was rather severe and was limiting my ability to exercise. Dr. Kauf got me in the following Monday and has really helped me a great deal. First of all, he explained the proper ways to sit at the computer, sleep and stretch. He treated both the neck and lower back frequently for about five weeks and I was feeling much better. I then started seeing him less, but I still felt awesome. Today, I can lift weights, run and sit at the computer pain free. He is very thorough by taking xrays and giving a full examination before diagnosing your condition. He also has a great, caring, experienced staff on board. You feel right at home from day one! Go to Dr. Kauf as I can't say enough good things about him!

    I was looking for the best Chiropractor in Chicago and I found him! I was referred by my friend when I couldn't turn my neck after awakening in pain! I couldn't drive, brush my teeth, or do anything for that matter. Dr. Kauf examined and x-rayed me. He found 2 degenerative discs. He treated me over the course of 6 weeks and I am 100% better! A total sweetie with great bedside manner! His staff is terrific too.

    For as long as I can remember I have had serious back pain. For some reason (not sure why) I had always been hesitant to schedule an appointment with a chiropractor. A good friend said that through chiropractic therapy Dr Kauf had helped ease her back pain so I decided it was time for me to try it as well. I was very impressed with the facility, office staff and most importantly Dr. Kauf. He took plenty of time with me to identify what could be causing my back pain and gave me a thorough exam and identified where my back issues were stemming from. He has a very delightful personality and is very comfortable to be around. I went to therapy 3 days a week for a month and felt like my life has changed. I continue to go for back adjustments once a week and massage therapy with Doris. Both have made a world of a difference and I am now able to do all of the physical activities I used to enjoy without worrying about any pain afterwards. I would highly recommend Chicagoland Chiropractic to an... Read more

    You want the best Chiropractor in Chicago? Well I found him. I went to Dr. Michael Kauf with my husband after we were in a car accident. My neck was in agony! I couldn't even brush my teeth without pain. Dr. Kauf x-rayed me and diagnosed my condition. He treated me with PT and chiropractic and I am now 100% improved. His staff is great too! I have talked to people going to see him on the elevator and they love him too! Check him out in the gold coast!

    I just wanted to let everyone here on Citysearch know that I found a great Chiropractor in Chicago. Dr. Michael Kauf is his name and he will chane your life if you have back and neck pain. I have suffered from both low back pain and neck pain for years. I was referred to Dr. Kauf through my insurance plan and was pleased to discover all of his services were covered by my insurance! He put me on a program of stretches, electrical stimulatation (feels like a soothing electrical massage with pads hooked up to the sore muscles. I know it sounds weird, but it feels awesome), chiropractic adjustments, and massage therapy. I can't explain to you all how much better I feel. I have the range of motion back that I never thought I would have again! A big thank you to Dr. Kauf. I know he has several locations, but I saw him at his office on Delaware Place in the Gold Coast.

    After experiencing pain for over 6 months I finally decided to see a chiropractor. I was looking for a good chiropractor in chicago when my buddy said I should check out Dr. Kauf. I had shooting pains in my leg and my low back was killing me. He cured me after about 4-6 weeks of treatment. I still see him today because I am so active and he keeps me feeling great. I have referred him to friends, family, co-workers, and now YOU. He is a really nice guy who cares about you and makes you feel instantly comfortable at his office as well. I never write reviews, but wanted to let people know how good you can feel if you are having back pain.

    I met Dr. Kauf at the gym when I was introduced to him by one of his patients that told me he was the best Chicago chiropractor around. He was nice enough to discuss my upper back and neck issues with me while he was working out and suggested an exam and treatment at his Chicago chiropractic office on Delaware Place. I was x-rayed and given a report of my findings. He was very precise in his craft! I was put on a treatment program of chiropractic adjustments, electric stimulation, muscle manipulation, stretches and home exercises. After a few weeks, I was much, much better and now am pain free! I still go every few weeks by choice because I feel so great! I highly suggest him if you have neck pain.

    I went bto see Dr. Kauf for neck pain last year and was very pleased. He fixed me using adjustments and stretches! I saw that he treats celebrities too while they work in chigago. There are a bunch of "a-listers" signed photos that he has treated on his walls! Pretty c ool that he does that and I thought I would share it with people that read reviews. One other thing to note is that he got me in the same day as I called! Strongly suggest checking him out!

    I used to see a chiropractor out of state but needed a Chicago chiropractor. I was new to the city so I did an Internet search which directed me to Dr. Michael Kauf and it was a great find. I had pain in my neck that went into my shoulders. I was constantly in pain at the computer. Dr. Kauf examined me, took x-rays and determined that I had a pinched nerve in my neck that was causing the radiating pain into the shoulders. I followed his program of electric stimulation, stretches, deep tissue work, and chiropractic adjustments. I felt much better in a few weeks and can now sit and work pain free. Dr. Kauf changed my way of living and wanted to suggest him to anyone in need of a Chiropractor in Chicago.

    Dr. Kauf has treated my lower back pain with amazing results the last few months. I had seen two other doctors for this condition (a PT and a different chiropractor in Lincoln Park), but was not feeling any better after their treatments. The difference is that Dr. Kauf is an excellent adjuster and uses a specific table that really helped with my disc/low back problem (I forget the table is called , but it folds in the middle giving an amazing, gentlte stretch!!!) Dr. Kauf also took x-rays where as the other doctors had not. In addition, he took the time to explain exactly what was wrong with me by showing me the films and comparing my spine to normal and abnormal models. From the x-rays, I understood the exact part of the spine that my pain was coming from and could tell his treatment was right on that painful region! (It was also neat to see that he treats many celebrities and professional althletes when they are chicago based as there were signed pictures thanking him all over ... Read more

    Dr. Michael Kauf saved me. I had been getting terrible pains while working at my computer. A friend suggested Dr. Michael Kauf so I made an appointment. After a few treatments I felt great. Now I feel like a new person.

    I am so pleased to have found Dr. Michael Kauf after performing a Google search for chiropractors in chicago. His two web sites that came up, chicago-chiropractic and chicagolandchiro, provided loads of useful information and described the exact sciatic symptoms that I was experiencing. After a few weeks of treatment the pain started to subside and I was able to get back to my normal way of living. I would recommend Chicagoland Chiropractic Health Center to anyone who is experiencing back pain!

    I met Dr. Kauf while working out at my health club. Someone had told me he was a chiropractor that has been practicing for quite some time and was great, so I approached him at the gym to explain that I was in pain. He was kind enough to suggest that I come in that same day! I am in my late 30's and started to avidly work out which resulted in horrible neck pain and pain between my shoulder blades. He and his staff were always accomodating to my busy schedule and within a few weeks I was pain free! I would suggest anyone that is experiencing pain give him a call. He was always professional, caring and a really nice guy!
