I love the vital Energy Center. I am being treated by Stephen. I was recently in a car accident and I feel so much better whenever I leave the vital Energy Center after treatment from Stephen.I highly recommend going to this particular Center for treatment, chiropractor care and or muscle strain. It offers a calming and relaxing environment. The staff our wonderfulIll have to say one of my favorite things is getting an email always reminding me when my appointment is.

I’ve seen over a dozen doctors/physical therapist/spine specialist/chiropractors for neck/shoulder/back/hip/knee chronic pains in the last five years with zero success from any of them. After just 3 visits with Dr. Kohler and having my Atlas adjusted I am finally getting relief and feeling aligned. Literally crying tears of joy. So very grateful.

Its a place of serenity, tucked away in Eastlake. Its easily accessible and a very welcoming environment. The chiropractor I work with is very efficient and respectable of our current environment as well as my comfortability. I am happy I chose to take a more holistic approach to healing my spine.

It is without reservation that I recommend the Vital Energy Center. You will be warmly welcomed and acknowledged when you walk through their door. Stephen Wadsworth and Dr. Kohler are kind and gentle and very knowledgeable in their approach. But more importantly they are effective. They do not nickle and dime you and give you a customized treatment plan that works just for you. I look forward to an ongoing working relationship with them.

Dr. Jared Kohler is wonderful! I had awful pain in my neck that would not go away. He is an expert at working with the atlas at the top of the spine where the brain connects to the neck. At first, I saw him a few times close together, and now, I might see him once every 8 to 10 months or longer. Though the degeneration in those vertebrae will probably not regenerate, my ability to live with it pain free has been a life saver. Thank you Jared. And thanks to his excellent office manager, Carolyn, who keeps them running efficiently and effectively and is a really love woman to boot. A five star experience every time.

I love Dr Kohler and staff, and prefer paying out of pocket than using my insurance for their preferred providers.

I’ve never felt more cared for than I have at Vital Energy Center. It’s like a mini retreat every time I go-the place is so peaceful. I arrived in chronic pain from a car accident and now am pain free and know how to care for myself better and continue to see Dr. Kohler for regular maintenance. It’s truly a holistic care focused center that gave me many tools to enable my healing and continued care.

The office is staff is kind and generous with their time. They will explain everything to you fully and take as much time as necessary to get you taken care of, be it scheduling, insurance, or forging a personal relationship. Dr. J is a rock star and will go above and beyond to determine a treatment that will relieve your pain. This group had taken really good care of me in the past. If I need chiropractic care again in the future, my first, last and only choice would be the Vital Energy Center.

I had a wonderful experience with Caroline! She was very kind as she listened to my concerns, which varied each time I came in. I appreciated that she gave me special energy exercises to do at home which were helpful. I always left feeling on top of the world. I recommend her highly and have recommended her to a dear friend of mine!

I have been seeing Stephen for a month or so. I am already noticing positive shifts in my body. Caroline, who works the front desk and who (it sounds) has an amazing practice of her own, is so helpful and kind. I recommend the Vital Energy Center highly!

Dr Koehler is patient and explains the process thoroughly. The setting is remarkably peaceful given the busy intersection the office is located on.

I cant say enough about your practice. I have recommended you at a handful of people already and will continue to do so. Not only is the chiropractic treatment the best I have ever experienced, but Carolyns presence at the front desk and the overall coziness of your house and office make visits extremely pleasant. Im so happy my mom directed me to you guys!

Awesome place! Very relaxing and you can really get away from the daily grind and stress here. And I love it when Dr Kohler and Carolyn take the very best care of you. And made every accommodation to get me in before I moved fill time 2hrs north! And Dr Kohler is amazing. No shocking back or neck cracking which one has to mentally prepare for. Just really good tuning to what your body needs in a very gentle way. And the treatments last. All the better for me when Ive lived with chronic pain. Definitely recommend them!!

I contacted the VEC after an acute neck injury. I was in a substantial amount of pain and they understood that. From getting me in for a New Patient appointment and adjustment in 24 hours to following up with me via email after, they really went the extra mile to ensure I felt better. I have already raved about this practice to friends and family and I dont plan on stopping. I have no doubt you will have a wonderful experience and start feeling better fast if you choose to come here!

Every visit is so lovely and peaceful. The care of the staff, the doctor and the MLT therapist really make me feel full of energy, love and light. Not to mention how amazing my body feels after treatments. I highly recommend this place of business. They are always there for you when needed. Carolyn goes out of her way to make you feel important.

Amazing. Having a disease turns you into an executive really quickly. Knowing I can trust and relay on the vital energy center for medical help and references is priceless. Jareds graciousness to see me on a Saturday because of what I thought was a pinched sciatic nerve helped put me on the track to find it was Multiple Sclerosis. Skin sensations are nerve damage, could be a disk. . I recommend an ER MRI.Jared and Carolyn also took the time to follow up via text. Its a blessing to receive that kind of follow through care.

The Vital Energy Center has worked wonders for me over the years keeping my body aligned and tuned to perform without pain or discomfort.

The Vital Energy Center has become a place of healing for me. I came to Dr. Jared with serious neck pain that I had been suffering from for many years. His approach to treatment is holistic, he accounts for past trauma, alignment of the spine and atlas, emotional condition, and general flow of energy. Not only have my results been amazingly positive, but he is also very available should something arise between appointments. I no longer suffer through pain and lack of mobility in my neck.Also, his office is located in his home which is a sort of holy place. It just feels really good there, and that is part of the experience. Carolyn is the front of the house presence, she is warm and welcoming and knows you by name when you arrive. The two of them make a great team. If you have fear about chiropractic treatment, this place will show you there is a gentle way to heal.

Im a general contractor and have been building for over 20 years. I have had my issues with back pain, sciatica pain and neck pain. I first came to Dr. Jared with neck pain and limited mobility in my neck. With his assessment and care plan I was pain free with full mobility in about 3 weeks and after 10 weeks there was no sign of the original problem. I couldnt recommend him high enough to anyone who feels they have a need for a chiropractor. Not only did Dr. Jared fix my neck problem he also educated me on what was happening and gave me exercises and tips on how to cultivate head, neck and back health in my daily life. I regularly go back for tune ups on my own accord and I have a deeper connection and understanding of what is going on in my body and know when I need to seek his help. I have sent at least 3 of my friends his way who have all come back to me with big smiles and thank yous for the recommendation. In addition to Dr. Jared being an amazing chiropractor and healer, his office is in a lovely old craftsman home and is beautifully set up in a way that is warm, inviting, caring and peaceful... It is NOT like any other chiropractor or doctors office I have ever been to, all the staff are welcoming, kind and eager to make your visit comfortable!

Personal, welcoming, holistic experience. They look at the whole picture and let’s just say so many problems I was having before, has resulted in little to no problems after just a few visits. I will be traveling the 2+ hours every time I need an adjustment without any question .

Dr. Jared was the third Upper cervical doctor I saw for chronic neck, mid back and low back pain. I understand the concept and knew that an UC doctor could help. I appreciated Dr Jareds quite demeanor and Carolyns energy! I have successfully been stable for nearly 1 year now. I visit occasionally to get a check up and am quite happy with my service. I would highly recommend visiting Vital Energy Center. Oh, by the way- Steven is a muscle/massage specialist!

Dr. Kohler helped me manage my osteopenia condition so there was no question whom I would select for recovery from an auto accident. He explains issues clearly and is attentive to your input and concerns. The massage therapists on staff are exceptional and Carolyn is a wizard with appointment scheduling/support. The Center is definitely a place with good energy.

My consistent experience with the office staff and care practitioners at The Vital Energy Center is that my well being and role in partnering with them for my optimal health is always at the center of their mission and practice. After each visit, whether for chiropractic, manual ligament therapy, or massage, I always leave feeling more integrated in body and mind.

Doctor Kohler has been very helpful for minimizing my pain symptoms from Lower Lumbar Stenosis. After reading my MRI report he felt that chiropractic manipulation of my spine could be very risky, He prescribed some holistic methods for the most pain relief possible without drugs and I am very happy with the results. The office is lovely with a very calming energy. I highly recommend the Vital Energy Center.

Review №39

I can not recommend Dr Kohler enough. The treatment I received was exceptional. If you have sciatica, back issues, neck issues or migraines, go straight to him. I only wish I would’ve seen him sooner. It was different than other chiro I had experienced in that the adjustments were more focused and gentler. He also thinks and explains in full systems so you also learn a lot about your conditions.

I have been visiting chiropractors for 20 years before I found Dr K, non of them really helped. Dr K looked at my entire alignment, not just my spine. After 20 years of always having an aching back (even doing yoga and exercise regularly), I rarely get aches anymore. He also advised me how to exercise properly and what to avoid. The reception is always helpful, friendly, and caring. Stephen also helps me like no other. I reccomend VEC as often as possible, even though I know they will take appointment slots

After suffering from back pain for years I went to Dr. Kohler for a few months and had immediate reduction in my daily pain. It has been YEARS and I have not needed to return to any doctor for back issues. I have sent or suggested several friends to Dr. Kohler, without reservation. The office staff was always kind and attentive. The services I received were on time and always of the highest quality. Lastly - I was taught how to care for my back: exercises, minimum daily walking, etc. whereas other doctors I had worked with were not considering a holistic solution. I felt well cared for and cant say enough positive things about his practice.

Dr. Kohler and company are amazing. After years of back pain Dr. kohler finally helped me back to health and coached me to stay that way. His assistance when I was in physical therapy after my ankle brake was also phenomenal. If you want to stop your cycle of pain and constant chiropractic visits go to Vital Energy Center.

Jared and staff are great! I highly recommend! Massage 💆 and Chiro, with the chiro emphasis on Atlas alignment. I dont receive big cracks (manual adjustments) which I appreciate. After seeing Jared the frequent, life hindering headaches are gone.

Review №48

Its a rare treat to feel like you work with a team of people who see your body as a whole rather than a collection of parts. I was experiencing a whole bunch of issues that seemed to confound the physical therapist, podiatrist and chiropractor. I have struggled with neck pain/headaches for many years as well as a leg discrepancy. I saw Dr. Kohler for an atlas adjustment as well as Stephen who does manual ligament adjustments. The combination was extremely helpful in both physical treatments for my body but also for the kinesiology aspect about the ways that I could use my body better (ie. sleeping postures and pillows, using screens, sitting, driving, walking) After a few weeks of regular appointments I did begin to see a shift in very chronic pain. I feel like all the care I receive is very much tailored to my specific body and the way that it presents each visit. Carolyn who does energy work and also manages schedules and payments is always a joy to interact with. Im so pleased with the care Ive received at Vital Energy Center.

I first came to the Vital Energy Center a couple of years ago when I didnt realize it but I had a frozen shoulder. My son and I live in the neighborhood and he said to me one day; Mom you should go check that place out. And so I did. I had no idea what was wrong with my shoulder. I had lost faith in a previous medical Dr. So was really scared and unclear about where to go for help. I had been to a chiropractor once years ago and it had been so painful that I never thought I would do that again. But this place just drew me in some how and finally out of desperation more than anything, I just made a cold call and made an appointment to go in.I was frightened and in extreme pain with no idea where to turn. And so I was literally brought to tears when after the beginning of my first visit Dr. Kohler assured me that he knew exactly what was going on and that absolutely, Yes it could be treated.I cannot sing praises long or loud enough about the wonderful combination of kindness, competency and integrity Dr. Kohler and his entire staff demonstrate as they treat patients. It is practical and has a deep healing effect. And it is absolutely pain free.I had been told by others that my shoulder would take 9 months to a year of physical therapy to fix. However in three weeks at the Vital Energy Center it was 70% better. And within three months I was feeling no restriction or pain whatsoever. In addition they offered suggestions for exercise and nutrition that increased the speed of my recovery. And reduced the frequency of visits I needed to make to their center. Their whole intention is to get patients well and out into their active lives again and Dr. free as soon as possible. They are ethical and miraculous, all of them to the core.A year later my 19 year old son suffered a severe concussion and ended up with a herniated disc from his fall. The hospital had told us that he would not be back on his feet for three to six months and he was supposed to take a whole gaggle of medications for pain. Even so he was in screaming pain and could not sleep or function. We went immediately to Dr.Jared. And after one treatment the pain was so much less that he was able to relax and sleep again. (And we threw out all the meds). After three weeks of treatment Dr. Jareds treatment plan had him back on his feet, back at school, and even doing light exercises which increased the speed of his recovery. Again this was miraculous in my eyes. And it saved my son since this was the spring of his senior year in high school and he was able to get back to school and graduate. We will always be grateful to these people. Dr. Jared Kohler, Stephen Wadsworth and Carolyn Story who are the heart of the Vital Energy Center. They saved us.....So I am writing to anyone out there who is in pain and just encouraging you to call by all means and definitely go in there. This is the most wonderful little secret healing place right here in Seattle. It is beautiful and you will feel the power and sweetness there the minute you walk in...Dont waste a moment in pain...Let them help you!

The Vital Energy Center, and Dr. Jared Kohler in particular, has completely impacted my life for the better. Chronic lower back pain has plagued me on and off for years; tightness in my neck and shoulders have become a way of life. As a mother of four children, I have not been able to focus on myself as much as I would like, but the discomfort had grown too unbearable. I sought help from Dr. Kohler last week. He was really nice and down to earth. He patiently and methodically examined me, answered each of my questions with a kind and calm demeanor, and most importantly actively listened to me and my specific concerns. His evaluation was thorough and he was able to localize problems and address them with his gentle techniques, tools, and professional expertise. Dr. Kohler explained what the adjustments would be like and how i would feel, and I’m happy to report that after my first ever chiropractic adjustment I already feel “lighter”, more relaxed, and in less discomfort! I also have a new plan for sleeping and reading, one that will help my posture and prevent developing further neck and back problems. I know it took years for my aches and pains to develop and it will take time to regain my health and strength. could not be more thrilled to be receiving care at the VEC, and look forward to my future visits. Dr. Kohler and his staff at The Vital Energy Center are simply fabulous and I’m so grateful for their help and support and allowing me to live in less pain and discomfort!
