I had the privilege of meeting Dr. Hankins and Dr. Hernal at a massage pop-up my apartment complex was hosting for Vitality Specific. They offered a wonderful special that included a free consultation and massage. I went into my first appointment for general wellness, as I had not visited a chiropractor in over ten years. At the time, I didnt realize how often you really should be checking in with a chiropractor. I cannot express how much of a God-send this happen-chance meeting was, as Dr. Hankins was able to fix issues I had been having with my nervous system for over twelve years. Within one adjustment (by second appointment), symptoms that used to be weekly or bi-weekly year by year completely disappeared. It has now been almost three months, and I am still problem-free. I worked with numerous doctors over the years in all lines of work, and not one could fix the problems I was having. I have already discussed my progress with these individuals and recommended Dr. Hankins to colleagues, friends, and family. Five stars is simply not enough. Life changing work. I also highly recommend Marquesa Newman - an incredible massage therapist with unique and effective techniques to accompany ongoing chiropractic treatment. Thank you guys for your incredible work and talent.

I’ve known Dr. Hernal for several years now and I can honestly say she’s one of the few people that I would trust my family with. Not only did she figure out exactly what was causing my pain but she also took the time to explain it to me. She’s one of the smartest and nicest doctors I’ve ever encountered and I would recommend her to everyone.

This place place is a little taste of heaven because they work miracles...Im 32 now, Ive had right shoulder pain since my HS Football days... ALWAYS would bother me. I work in sales, it would bother me just from standing all day...After visiting this great staff of miracle workers my life has changed...I no longer feel my shoulder pain EVER...And I didnt realize that I wasnt sleeping because my atlas was out...now I sleep like a baby on cloud. I love the medical team here from the moment of check-in to the massages to the back cracks nothing but A1 Service... I love the work theyre doing...truly changing lives

At least one chiropractor and one massage therapist are anti-COVID vaccine. The level of sales pushing is extremely uncomfortable. I have higher standards for a medical practice.I went for a few weeks and didnt feel any better and then found out about all of the anti-VAX sentiments among the staff, so I had to stop going.

Went to this place for massage yesterday and it was a good massage but Id suggest that you let people rest for a while after that deep therapeutic massage because I got a little tipsy on my way home.I was told that I was good to go just after the massage and had to get some water I asked for outside of the massage room. It would have been great if I got at least 5min of rest. Anyway I enjoyed the massage even if they didnt work on my arms😜

I originally went in because of promotional neck message, no pain no problems just interest. Dr. Henkins found that my atlas was crooked and pushing against my brain stem! The following weeks I was stiff and for the first 48 hours I thought I had made a grave mistake. Thankfully the following 3 months of adjustments along with the physical therapy team working on my muscles have left me with better coordination, clearer thinking, and a newfound understanding of my body should work.10/10 staffShout out to Rita for all the appointment reminders!And if you can stand strong hands and a little pain Brenda gives the best messages and an education to boot!!Thanks Vitality Specific for helping me be a better me!

After dealing with lower back pain for more than a year and trying several ways of recovery, I came to Vitality Specific for a check up. I was a little skeptical at first about upper cervical chiropractic for my spine issue but after several sessions I can say with confidence that Dr Hankins and Dr. Wolff are the best and have done an amazing job fixing my back and guiding me back to good spine health! I would 100% recommend everyone to come here πŸ‘

Upper cervical care has been immensely helpful for managing my MS symptoms. Ive been going to Vitality Specific for several months now and notice a huge improvement in neurological function, sleep and energy. Dr. Hankins is very knowledgable and always upbeat. I can tell that the doctors have a genuine interest in giving their patients the best possible care. Preventative medicine is always the way to go! Highly recommend!

Since having my atlas bone at the top of my spine safely adjusted, my balance has noticeably improved and the overall stiffness in my neck has greatly improved as well. The weekly adjustments to my mid spine and massages also help. I feel confident with the adjustments which use drop tables with specific measurements that stop the chiropractors push down safely and securely. Everyone in the office is super nice, too!

Our 11-month old daughter had lasting signs of torticollis from pregnancy. Dr. Wolff and his team properly assessed her alignment and took immediate steps into correcting it. We found that she was in more pain than we thought and how common this is with newborns. The best part is the care, service, and education we received through this process. I highly recommend Vitality Specific Chiropractic for alignment checks and treatment for this specific need - we cant thank them enough!

Review β„–19

I came in to Vitality Specific after injuring my back and neck squatting too much weight at the gym in May of 2015 as my sister-in-law, Christine Zapata, happens to work there as a chiropractor. My first visit ran over 30 minutes as I had to be evaluated for the extent of my injury including x-rays, and while I dont remember the exact wording, it was determined that my spinal cord was essentially out of alignment. One side was a half inch lower/higher than the other which is a considerable margin (around my hips). There were some flexibility tests that I was given, and was asked a fair amount of questions to help with the evaluation. It was relatively painless, as she would not push me to the point where I was inflicting pain. She also recommended I do some stretches every day that I believe they went over with me, I think there may have even been a handout. Having initially gone in, a couple days after my injury, my back and neck were in constant paint and I couldnt even fully bend down to tie my own shoes, so I had her sign off a note so that I was excused from work for the week. She also recommended I refrain from a good number of activities (most at that point--anything remotely strenuous and some I may not have even though of so as to not make the injury worse and instead let it heal).Fast forward a couple weeks -because I dont have all day to write this and Im not writing a novel- and I was making a pretty slow, but steady recovery, was back to work (though with restrictions on lifting), and the visits (two per week) were a lot shorter, other than waiting my turn in line sitting down in the waiting room (which usually moved very fast), including one or two quick, easy adjustments and sometimes followed up by sitting on a comfy, adjustable chair with an ice pack before leaving and setting up my next appointment. Im giving Christine Zapata and Vitality Specific a 5/5 because I feel like the experience there helped me a lot and never once did I feel worse off after going in and having an adjustment, usually I felt noticeably better and one of my last adjustments helped my neck a ton (back in December), a night and day difference, just a week or two before I ended up going skiing.Another thing Id like to mention is I think if seeing the chiropractor for an injury, it should be most always coupled with physical therapy. I did a little over two months of physical therapy between June-early August, and that helped tremendously as well. Between the two, my back is about 85 percent of what it was before the injury, which isnt too bad for having injured it with 405 pounds weighing 180 at the time.

Dr Wolff at Vitality Specific Chiropractic in Ballard is my hero! As a CrossFit coach and athlete I know how important it is to have a strong and well functioning body. Dr Wolff has been keeping me in a good shape for years now. He is knowledgeable and experienced in back adjustments and i see him regularly to avoid injuries. His office is well organized and the visits are smooth and quick. I recommend Vitality Specific to people of all ages.

Dr. Hankins is amazing, and the rest of the staff is always a pleasure to work with. Every time I come in, I know I am always going to be greeted by warm and friendly smiles. Overall, I have been very satisfied with their practice and techniques. Before I started coming here, I had started having some back pain and I didn’t know why. Ever since coming here for adjustments and massages, I have never felt better!

I’ve come to them for multiple different issues over many years ranging from accidents to chronic back issues, and I feel that they take care of me in a very professional way. Their chiropractic care is much more specific and helpful than any other I’ve come across and I can actually trust they are taking care of me. I highly recommend them to those suffering from accidents and also from chronic back pain. Truly one of a kind with great service.

I am totally amazed at how I now feel. After my first visit the pain in my knees and neck disappeared. I feel 20 years younger. All the negative energy I spent suffering in pain 24/7 has now turned into a positive, enjoyable good life. There is a reason it is called Vitality...it changed my life 100% for the better.

I’d been dealing with discomfort in my neck since I was in my early 20s and had no idea it was directly related to my lower back. I got a free consultation and started treatment at the clinic. I’ll admit I was a skeptic but I still have them a chance. Thankfully they explained the work they do before they did anything. I asked lots of questions as well because I didn’t want anyone twisting my neck like you see in the movies. They use the β€œBlair method” which makes total sense to me. I’m happy to report that my lower neck no longer has that discomfort and my lower back is doing great! It was going out every six months and starting to happen more frequently before I started a recovery program with the professionals at vitality specific. Shout and thanks to the team there in Ballard!

Review β„–27

My young teenage daughter had two concussions back to back and had serious complications from those. We spent six months just trying to keep her alive, seeing close to 40 different doctors trying to figure out what was wrong with her. We heard everything from it being hormonal migraines to post concussive syndrome to a severe brain injury that would most likely be fatal in the near future. Im not a doctor but my intuition said they were all wrong and we kept looking for answers. We came across information on Dr. Wolff and what he does, and felt strongly that could be the solution. He got us an appointment the day after I contacted him and he confirmed her atlas was out and dislodged in a way that was pinching her brain stem which was causing her issues. He adjusted her the first time we saw him and we see him regularly to ensure things are holding, making adjustments when necessary. Shes finally improving and is on track to make a full recovery. Hes been incredibly caring and supportive during this process and treats us like family, always available for questions or advice. I cannot thank him and his staff enough for what theyve done (and continue to do) for us.

I came in from a referral from my co-worker. I was involved in a roll-over accident a year ago and was still experiencing a great deal of neck and back pain. Dr. Andrew Hankins was very helpful and informative with the plan and process to get me back to myself again. He took the time to explain step by step and made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. After a few adjustments, i felt immediate relief. Marquesa has also been great with massage. Ive been going for 12 weeks now and feel almost 100% back to my normal self. I would highly recommend Vitality to anyone with neck or back pain. Theyre wonderful!

Very Convenient location to downtown.I first found Dr. Wolff from reading his blog. I do agree with most of Dr. Wolffs insights. What makes Dr. Wolff unique is his sincere dedication to understanding health and well being. He answered all of my questions.Specifically Dr. Wolff helped me understand how my body (I am 43) can be cared for maximum health and quality of life. I have spent most of my life being hard on my body (wrestling, martial arts, aggressive snowboarding, etc)..now I am at a desk.. I have referred many friends with stressful desk jobs (yes Amazon...).Dr. Wolff, his staff all very professional and on time..highly recommend.

I found the team at Vitality after striking out with 4 different PTs, countless massage therapists and other professionals. Their methodology and technique has proven to very successful. I was skeptical of how their phone is answered with miracles happen at Vitality Specific but honestly, that pretty much sums up my sentiment.I had pain in my elbow for years. As an avid climber and general mountain athlete, having my body perform without pain is a primary focus for me. Dr. Wolff is an athlete and understands the needs and mentality. A rare find. Him and his team worked with me to not only rid me of pain but restored my performance beyond my previous 100%. Highly recommend..

Dr. Hankins made a huge difference in helping my frozen shoulder! With his skill and doing the recommended exercises, my range of movement is so much better!

The treatment plan started the fall of 2019. Major work needed with scarring tissue so I see Dr. Hankins three times a week for adjustments. My atlus is holding in place as I am recovering from a car accident that happened in 2018. Work in progress at the beginning of the treatment plan I couldnt finish a sentence, lost my sense of direction, needed to straighten out my left foot, relax nerves in my twitching thumb, improve my memory and cognitive functions. You are always greeted with a warm welcome! You limp in there and leap out stop on by or make an appointment see for yourself ... I highly recommend it for all ages precious babies to grandparents!

I had been experiencing chronic neck and back pain for close to two years before I found Vitality Specific. I couldn’t sit, stand, walk, run, or really do anything without my neck hurting, and I hadn’t had a good night sleep in what felt like forever. After a few non invasive and fairly gentle neck adjustments, I began noticing a reduction in pain. I’m halfway through the process now and things are looking up. I’m feeling better than I have in ages. Dr. Wolff and Dr. Hankins are kind, professional, caring folks who want to help people get better (and they can!). Highly recommend.

Review β„–39

YouIve been seeing Dr Wolff for at least 15 years and have been so impressed with him!! Ive seen him through numerous pregnancies as well as a recent injury. In mid 2015 I shattered 2 cervical vertebrae and underwent a couple of major surgeries. Ive been to PT and seen numerous doctors but to no avail to alleviate my pain.About a year and a half after my last surgery and I was still having issues with neck pain and not being able to sleep. I contacted Dr Wolff and explained my situation to him. I was actually quite nervous because of all the rods, plates, and pins, plus the fact that they had to do bone grafts to help stabilize the shattered vertebrae.I was very happy that Dr Wolff called me himself and asked me to describe my issues to him. He asked me to come in for further evaluation.Dr Wolff noticed my atlas (C1) was out of alignment. He worked his magic and I finally slept the whole night for the first time in over a year. I feel like a brand new woman!I cannot thank Dr Wolff enough for his attention and care. My kids have noticed a difference in my attitude as well. I still have a lot of work ahead, but knowing I have Dr Wolff on my side I feel like I can do do this. I truly appreciate his willingness to help out in a situation where one may feel they are just stuck feeling in pain constantly. He has also treated my children and mother as well, with very positive results. I would definitely recommend him!!!!

Review β„–40

I have been seeing Dr. Wolf and Dr. Hankins for ~3 years now, and they have worked wonders. What id like to review, however, is how Chiro helped during my first pregnancy and labor. Dr. Hankins saw me the majority of the time and helped with comforting my lower ligament pain through the second and third trimesters. I had a hard time walking distances and his adjustments of the round ligament really helped take the pressure off my lower abdomen. As we got into the third trimester we focused a lot on my lower back, and then he started doing the Webster technique to help make sure baby was aligned properly for a smoother, faster delivery. Prenatal massages were also key at this time and I saw Marquesa for those every 2 weeks.My little boy arrived 2 weeks early, and though I dont have anything to compare my labor to, after a pretty fast active labor, Ethan delivered himself after 20 minutes of pushing....the doctor wasnt even able to make it because he shot himself right out :) Thankfully everything was fine and there were no complications for either of us. The doctors, my Doula and I were all shocked at how quickly my first delivery went and as Ive been told, this is largely because of how the baby was positioned, in addition to my continued mild exercise routine.As we start thinking about having more children, Ive already told Dr. Hankins he will be helping me with the Webster technique again :)

Well, I cannot take a single 5 star review from this place serious after they tried to pay me for one. these people are horrible. No help at the front counter. Cant even answer the simplest of questions. Cannot keep their books in check. On top of that they seem to have a real hard time understanding how to deal with insurance companies. no one on one with a chiropractor at all. they always were chatting with other clients or co workers. I look at all these 5 star reviews and wonder how many free messages they have given out. oh yea. made an appointment? eh, still have to wait 45 mins. Ive seen things better organized at a preschool.

Review β„–43

I had lower back pain to varying degrees (ranging from not being able to walk for several days to the constant nagging nerve pain shooting down my leg) for over 5 years before visiting this clinic. The upper cervical adjustments that they do at Vitality Specific seem counterintuitive for lower back pain but they explain the process really well upfront before any commitment is made. After receiving regular adjustments I can say that this is the closest to normal that I’ve felt in a long time. It’s allowed me to begin working out again and I can feel myself getting stronger which will help in maintaining a healthy spine.Their goal here is to NOT have to adjust you a bunch of times and make it so you ultimately don’t have to come in all the time. They focus on getting you well rather than making you completely dependent on them. If you’re like me and have felt the despair of thinking you’ll never be β€œnormal” again give this place a shot.

Review β„–46

Those who have reviewed regarding, things being too quick or, learning about the evils of modern medicine, or, leaving in more pain than when you arrived, clearly know nothing about upper-cervical chiropractic, or Blair chiropractic more specifically. Read Wolffs blog if youre skeptical, talk to others who know the truth about this form of chiro. It truly works, is medically sound, and has saved millions of lives. You need to take responsibility for your health. A victim mentality clearly runs your thinking, which also explains a lot about your health.

We have been patients of Dr. Wolffs for 18 years. He is truly a magic man! (I know, I know, its science...) The Blair-Palmer technique is specific, and minimalistic in a good way (no rack em and crack em bs found here). Over the years, we have referred tens of colleagues and friends to Dr. Wolff and they all say the same thing; nothing helped until we came here. Dr. Wolff is a Zen master who has helped me in so many ways over the years; adjusting to postpartum, healing after a car accident, and keeping the aches and pains of getting older to a minimum! With his level of expertise and precision skills, I simply will not see anyone else.

Review β„–52

In 2014 after a severe car accident, a neighbor highly recommended Vitality Specific Chiro. Ive been to chiropractors in the past. Ive gotten relief but as soon as I would start to cut back on the number of weekly visits the pain would return. I was not interested in starting that cycle again, but also did not want to be on pain meds. My neighbor shared her recovery story and said that this place had an actual plan with a beginning and end and different stages in between.I have found that to be true. My back pain completely disappeared. I was going in for occasional maintainance only.Then in mid 2017 I fell down a flight of stairs and hurt my neck and back. I was in a great deal of pain that made working difficult. Within two months the pain was under control and a few months later the back pain completely gone. My neck pain has been slower to heal but the pain is minor now and I am able to work. I noticed some unexpected benefits as well. My headaches have decreased significantly and my energy level has increased. I highly recommend these doctors. The whole staff is great and eager to help.

I was a chiro-sceptic. However after a couple of years of brutal migraines I decided to give Vitality specific a try on a friend’s recommendation. After a couple of visits over a six week period, the headaches started to decrease in frequency and severity, and after a few more appointments they disappeared completely. I’ve been going in regularly for over a year now, and I don’t get migraines any more. If you suffer from headaches and neck pain, go see them. They can help.

Review β„–56

June 2017, I hurt my L5. The pain was so intense that I thought I was going to pass out. I went to the chiropractor I have been seeing off and on for several years. He was able to relieve the pain slightly, and had me come into his office 3 times a week for a few months. Then 2 times a week. Eventually 1 time a week, after about 9 months of adjustments and treatment with the Lordex machine. A year later and my left leg would still randomly hurt at times during the day.August 2018, I ran into Dr. Hankins at a Bartell Drugs and took a chance. I figured I could always stop if this method that I had not known about didnt work.I say all of this because I figured I was going to be partially injured for life, given I had spent a little over a year going to the chiropractor getting adjustments and using the Lordex, and I still wasnt recovered from my June injury.The first adjustment I felt instant relief in my left leg. It felt like a muscle was relaxing. Since that first adjustment, I have not had my weekly leg pains. Two months later, on my 3rd examination to see where my progress was, I was told that my hips were in alignment, my shoulders were only 1/8 off, and my neck was aligned. I had started off with my first examination (August 2018) with my alignments being off by up to 1/2.I am currently only going once every 2 weeks, and I have been told that I will probably end up going only once every 2 months. For me its like getting a new spine.I recommend the Blair Chiropractic Method. To anyone. In pain or not.

Review β„–57

* Peganat ? MUST READ * I have always been a little apprehensive about going to chiropractor simply beacause everytime I had gone to one in the past doctors never took the time to educate me and I would often tense up during a visit causing more damage. Here at Vitality they treat patients using non invasive medical methodology and explain in detail there medical findings. The doctors take the time to educate you on what will be adjusted and the reasons behind it . Both Dr. Wolf and Hankins are professional and super nice. All things I appreciate especially because , well, I’m no doctor and wasn’t completely sold that chiropractic treatment would help me. The driving factor for my visits is due to me being preganant and like most preganat woman my back and neck could no longer handle the extra weight of my growing baby . I was in so much pain, causing me to lose sleep, couldn’t focus at work , constant pain, resulting in me become a miserable person . A pregnant lady at work recommended I try going to a chiropractor but stated she tried them all and I have to go to Vitality, that it was the only facility that made a difference ..So I did and one of the best decisions I made for myself and growing baby . After one visit I noticed a huge difference and felt like a new person . I really love the drop tables they use allowing me to relax and not tense up . They have accomdations for those expecting and the massage therapy treatment they offer is wonderful. I leave every time feeling great and look forward to the next visits knowing that I am on track to a better healthier life ! I never knew how pain in back could effect so many areas of my life. If you are in pain and want to feel better I suggest you call Vitality as soon as you can ; total game changer .

This placed saved me. Id been suffering the worst vertigo of my life for about 5 months and had given up any hope of finding help when my daughter told me about Dr. Wolff (he had helped a friend of hers with vertigo). It took a while, but I feel AMAZING and am back to being a fully functional human being. Ive suffered short bouts of Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) for almost 30 years, and it was previously easily resolved with medication and a few weeks’ time. This last episode was horrific. Medication didnt help, and the only way to describe the spinning sensation is VIOLENT, and it went on for months. I couldnt drive, had to sleep sitting up, and was afraid to leave the house for fear of sudden, violent spinning (which was almost always followed by lots of vomiting). Dr. Wolff was the 4th medical provider I went to (not including 4 ER visits and a brief hospital stay). He listened. He said we were in this together. It took a couple months, but I felt progress with each and every adjustment. I am ecstatic. I have zero spinning. I can drive again. I cannot recommend Vitality Specific and Dr. Wolff enough.

Works well with my insurance. Came in with knee issues and back pain and in about 20 visits there had been significant improvement.

This place has given me some pretty decent help with my lower back pain by adjusting the top of my spine. I am really hesitant about any chiropractic because the two other places I have been too in the last 5 years did not have any impact on my lower back pain. I decided to try this place since they had a completely different philosophy: upper-cervical adjustment. And somehow it has helped a little. It hasnt completely cured me but I am in my 4th week of treatments.I also really like their attitude and how great they are with my insurance, payments, and any rescheduling.To add, the massage therapist, Mike, is great. He has really helped my muscular pain.

Dr. Wolff has changes my life. I spent the last 10+ years in pain (back, neck, & shoulder). I hurt everyday, and tried everything under the sun for relief: PT, Yoga, Pilates, Meds, etc. but nothing worked. After the 2nd month of treatment at Vitality Specific I began to heal, and every day since Ive improved. I feel fantastic! Im back to the gym on a regular basis (unthinkable before) and wake each day without pain. I highly recommend anyone with back & neck pain to go in for a consult.Respectfully,Mr. Hedges

Dr Wolf and Dr Benlien brought my initial episode of crippling back pain that happened about every 15-18 months under control quickly and moved me into a monthly maintenance program that has kept my back in shape without significant set backs over the last 20 months-great support from the office staff and team-Keith

For years I have struggled with neck pain ...I now am free of the pain and able to enjoy life without it...I am at the point of visiting Vitality Specific once a month and very grateful to Dr. Benlien for all the time and patience she has gave to me to make my life pain free....Thank You Dr. Benlien for making this happen....

When I came in I was in pain, having trouble walking. After every treatment I felt better and better. This Chiropractor has worked it to get me stable so I dont need to come back all of the time. Now I just come in for a tune up when I over do it, which for me is just about every month

Review β„–68

I would not recommend Vitality Specific. I went there after a car accident, was given an assessment and told I needed to see the chiropractor 4x a week for a certain period (a month, maybe?) 3x a week for a month(?) after that, and then 2x a week for a while longer - and they insisted that I pre-schedule the entire slate of appointments months out. That is NOT medical treatment, which is supposed to be adjusted ongoingly based on the patients condition, need, response to treatment and individual recovery. Instead it was is a hard-sell services contract.And when, after a few adjustment sessions that had done me no good whatsoever (and a consultation with my doctor who instead recommended physical therapy), I decided to cancel the remainder of my dozens of pre-scheduled appointments, on of the other DCs called me personally to try and convince me not to cancel treatments. I agree with another reviewer who characterized it as more like a car dealership than a medical practice. I have subsequently gotten chiropractic treatments from a different practitioner that were very helpful...and were scheduled on a week-by-week/month-by-month basis only as needed in response to my bodys condition and integrated healing process.
