If you are familiar with traditional chiropractic, most practitioners focus on increasing joint range of motion and decreasing pain, this is usually accomplished by torquing the spine with high speed twisting motions. Foundational NUCCA Correction (FNC) aims to correct the Foundation of the human spine which happens to be the neck region closest to the brain. If this region shifts, it can obstruct communication between the brain and the body which can cause a myriad of secondary conditions (symptoms). We measure and correct these shifts using 4 indicators, light pressure and NEVER any torque.

The three doctors at Balance Chiropractic work very hard to make sure their patients reach a point of correction quickly so that quality of life improves rapidly. After months of ever increasing pain, after just 4 sessions I am out of pain and able to resume my normal life. Thanks to all three of you. The rest of the team are super nice and helpful. They are cheerful and treat everyone like a special friend. Thanks to all of you as well.

I've been getting adjustments from them for almost 2 years now and I have improved my backpains so much since. I used to see a traditional chiropractor before but with the same amount of time spent, this is definitely a much better option for me. No cracking of bones but it sure does make a lot of improvement on your overall health. Doctors and staff are very friendly, approachable.just amazing.

Before I came to Balance Chiropractic, I was almost in tears daily from my neck and shoulder pain. I had headaches and back spasms often. I felt the need to crack my neck and back constantly to relieve the pain. Though, that was just a temporary fix. After being in the care of Balance Chiropractic, I feel like a new woman. I can enjoy the activities that once brought me pain. My energy is back! The chiropractors and staff go above and beyond for their patients. I'm so thankful God lead me here.

My wife has been seeing balanced for several years now and always raves about them and has had good outcomes. I've always done traditional chiropractic care because I travel for work and traditional is located everywhere. Well I now have several disc injuries from my job that has put me out of work so I decided to try balance because traditional was causing me more pain and I was worried about getting more damage to my discs.
Balance was able to get me in right away and start care that day. When I first came to balance, I was very upset about my injuries. Max has made me feel empowered over my care and body. He gave me exercises and stretches to do at home. I was taught proper body mechanics when doing anything so I don't continue to aggravate my injuries. The new machines they have for decompression therapy are amazing and I'm already seeing improvement in my pain.
The Nucca adjustments are much more gentle than traditional adjustments and I don't feel pain afterwards. I'm super happy I switched over to Balanced chiropractic and am excited to finally have a solution that works so I can get better and back to work.

Such an amazing place. The experience is top notch starting with the ladies at the front, the doctors, the training and educational information provided, with relaxing "0 gravity chairs" in the back with mood lighting to help you relax. This place truly is one of a kind. Doctor Max, Doctor Ernesto, Corina, Sophia, and Holly all make the experience feel welcoming and like your apart of the family.
I was airborne in the Army which had some negative impact on my back which led me to have a constant back pain for many years. I can proudly say with the help of Balance Chiropractic I do not have that pain anymore. My head also no longer tilts nearly as much as it use to (still a work in progress). I cannot say enough good words to express how i truly feel about them! Highly recommend! Totally unique and not scary by any means.

I highly recommend Balance Chiropractic to anyone who is suffering from chronic pain, neurological issues, and/or post-concussion symptoms, and is looking to improve their quality of life. After 3 MONTHS of the non-traditional chiropractic care at Balance, I experienced a dramatic decrease in daily neck pain and debilitating neurological symptoms-allowing me to participate in activities that I hadn't enjoyed in YEARS!
My symptoms began after a whiplash injury in 2010 and worsened after a concussion (mTBI) in 2018. I had seen many specialists and tried numerous treatments and therapies, with little resolve-including traditional chiropractic for 10 years! The care I have received at Balance Chiropractic has surpassed all my expectations! I only wish I had found them sooner.
A year into my protection care now at Balance, and I have virtually no symptoms on a daily basis, I am able to participate in physical activities that are important to me again, and my overall quality of life has dramatically improved! I am so grateful for Dr. Ernesto, Dr. Max, and the whole Balance team for their compassion, expertise, and attention to detail! Balance helped me reclaim my health and my life! Thank you :)

I was really skeptical at first or for better terms scared. I don't have the best of luck with chiro's but this team has given me hope, movement, life without pain back and I'm even able to stretch and do yoga poses that I have not been able to do in over 12 years. The entire staff is amazing and welcoming and I'm so glad I gave it a try.

I love Balance Chiropractic! Everyone in the office is very friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about you and your health! I'm a new client, but each time I've been here it has been a great experience! I was able to see and feel results right away after my very first adjustment! I would definitely recommend Balance Chiropractor!

I have had nothing but a great experience with the 4 times I have gone. I already feel a tremendous difference in my pain level, and my posture. I am thankful I have found Balance Chiropractic and the amazing, soft touched, friendly doctors and staff! I can't wait to see where I am 6 months from now! I highly recommend for your Chiropractic needs! No snap, crackle, and pop at this office! That was the biggest selling point for me!

I definitely recommend this place!

Dr. Max and Dr. Ernesto have been so great to go to! They listen to my needs and are very knowledgeable. They've helped me so much with a lot of my health concerns including headaches and even breathing issues. And, their diagnostic tools help even more to see the amazing progress. The staff is also very awesome! They've been really flexible with any scheduling issues and questions, and are so friendly and nice to talk to. Balance has a very smooth running system and everyone is very conscientious and they really care. They've helped me a lot and I highly recommend them!

Always an exceptional experience at Balance Chiropractic! My health and well-being is at an all time high that I never expected at 60 years of age! No more lower back pain or uncomfortable traditional chiropractic manipulations! The NUCCA method really works! Give the Balance team a try. You only have one body!

They are so great and always willing to help when my schedule is crazy! Dr. Max and Dr. Ernesto are super helpful and encouraging with my various neck/back pain concerns. I love that they always offer home exercises or stretches. I started seeing them end of May and I could tell a difference immediately in my pain levels. They are passionate and knowledgeable about helping people and it definitely shows with their always welcoming attitudes!!!

I was hit on my bike while crossing an intersection by Garden of the Gods. Fortunately, I didn't break anything, but it definitely traumatized my body on numerous levels. I initially saw a "traditional" chiropractor who popped, cracked, twisted the spine and neck, etc., and these methods were useless to what my body was experiencing. I was fortunate to meet Dr. Ernesto Fernandez at a business networking group.
After listening to his weekly presentations, I decided to visit Balance for a consultation. I quickly learned the science and logic of their methods and began the treatment. Although I had a hiatus in the treatment, the first adjustment made the hip on to which I had fallen in the accident immediately better. I have now been seeing them consistently for a month, and this is the best I have felt since the accident, hands down.
These people take the time to listen, educate, and they understand that chiropractic care is not a one-size-fits all treatment. I highly recommend this business to anyone who is feeling pain; especially to those who find the "traditional" methods ineffective.

Before I came to Balance Chiropractic, I had been suffering from chest pain, shortness of breath and dizziness. After a visit to the ER and six months of physical therapy, I had made little progress. Dr. Max identified several issues, and after a few weeks I saw major improvements. Thanks to this place, we were able to identify the source of my symptoms, And I can get through my day to day activities without issue again!

I really enjoy the welcoming, calm, warm environment that has helped my healing process. I truly appreciate all the water and tea and helpful advice I receive everytime I go to the office. My back is healing, my posture is improving and so is my mood. My body is happier and I can see the difference!

Dr. Max and Holly have been great. I walked into the clinic in so much pain. I have used other chiropractors, masseuses, and doctors. I wanted to treat the source of my problem and not the symptoms. Not only have the treatments helped my immediate pain in my neck, shoulders, and arms but also pain and numbness down my legs. I would recommend this treatment without hesitation.

Balance Chiropractic has totally changed my life. Before starting treatment with Dr. Pohl I was suffering from constant, daily neck pain and tension along with other complaints in my back. The treatment at Balance Chiropractic has totally relieved my neck pain and has provided huge relief with my back. I highly recommend this form of Chiropractic Care.
I was a huge skeptic of chiropractic medicine before starting my treatment here. Now I can say that nothing helped me like Dr. Pohl!! In addition the facility and staff are fabulous. I'm always in and out quickly and the office is clean comfortable and welcoming.

Great experience I've been getting treatments since 2011 and I'm basically pain-free in my neck. It is also enabling me to create fabulous artwork as my spine and muscles unwind from years of dysfunction. Dr. Gamm "walks his talk" and I find that really refreshing in a health professional. Thanks Dr Gamm

I highly recommend Dr Max Pohl I saw him when he was first getting started in the St Louis Area. He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to listen to his patients to understand what the patient is experiencing. My husband is very skeptical when it comes to chiropractors he first met Dr Pohl at a running expo he was attending with me and they totally hit it off and became a patient along with our 14 year old son.
All of us were very sad to hear he was going to be relocating. If you are considering him for you chiropractic needs he is your guy. I have seen several chiropractors the last 5 years since I started running and he simply is hands down the best out there. He is very understanding and patient with his patients when they are trying to explain there problem.
He not only helps runners but all athletes. He understands what athletes go through being into weight lifting and hiking himself. He gets it. He will get you back to doing the things you love without pain and in a timely manner. I promise you you will not be disappointed.

Dr. Max is amazing! I have felt so much relief since going to Balance and he is very friendly and easy to talk to! It's nice to know he actually cares about my well being and that he takes he time to make conversation and actually remembers things about his patients even after not seeing them for a few weeks! My kids also love him and his staff! Thank you for all you do to make people healthy and feeling better!

Dr. Max and his team are amazing. He truely cares about each individual patient and getting them back to who they are ment to be. Each person has a different case and Dr. Max makes sure to spend the time to personalize there care to made them better. My husband and I can't imagine where our health would be without them.

I have been going to Balance now for almost 2 months. I have noticed a difference in my pain level since starting. I have a long ways to go since I have dealt with my pain for many years. Working with Dr. Pohl has been a great experience. I look forward to continuing to work with him and to see the results we are both working on. The staff are very friendly and eager to answer any questions.
Jessica Martinez
Absolutely a great environment with amazing people. Originally went to Dr. Pohl for dizziness and migraines at the end of December. I must admit I was very sceptical at first, he is not the typical crack and pop type guy, but whatever he is doing I think its working! I've only had 2 migraines since we started and before it was 6 to 8 a month! I was considering giving them a 4 star but that would only because of the hours they offer not because of the service.
Betty Barnett
I've been going to Dr. Max for three months, with remarkable results in helping me address health/stamina/brain fog issues I've struggled with for decades. I'd never "connected the dots" between various neck and head injuries I've experienced in my life with my chronic issues -- and for which traditional medicine hasn't been able to help. I feel like I'm being awakened from many years of a groggy, half alive state, a sort of "un-wilting" from years of drought...I can't wait for the full effect after I finish the course! Dr. Max and his staff are all wonderful people!
Jessica James
My life changed drastically after having met Dr. Max. He is competent, kind, & uplifting. Greg & Paige are awesome, making the team at Balance always a breath of fresh air. After suffering from insomnia, anxiety, depression, (& the list goes on) I began to see light again. I felt an energy inside of me that I had never experienced before.
After just one adjustment, I slept like a rock for the first time in years. Shortly after, I no longer needed any pharmaceutical drugs to "help" my brain cope. That never truly helps. Masking a symptom is far from fixing the root cause. It's amazing how many changes can occur when the spine is more aligned. It opens up more blood flow, creating so many open doors of which your body can begin to heal itself, inside & out.
I still was not a complete believer until seeing my before & after X-rays. I was shocked. My neck was originally jammed, twisted, bent, you name it. The difference was incredible. I told Dr. Max that I was honestly skeptical to begin with. He then said, "well, the proof is in the puddin'." He was so right, & I am beyond thankful!
