Chiropractor serving St. Paul, MN
Trusted chiropractic care for St. Paul
About 20 minutes (10 miles) from our south Minneapolis office
St. Paul packs a lot of character into its river bluffs — the Victorian porches lining Summit Avenue, the free zoo and gardens at Como Park, and the cafes and boutiques that give Grand Avenue its buzz. It’s a city built for walking, biking and long weekends outdoors, and all of that is easier to enjoy when your back, neck and joints feel good.
That’s where we come in. Nokomis Chiropractic and Wellness sits just across the river in south Minneapolis, at the corner of Lyndale Avenue and 53rd Street near Minnehaha Creek. For most St. Paul neighbors it’s about a 20-minute drive — I-94 west to I-35W south, then over toward Lyndale — with free parking waiting out front when you arrive.
Whether you’re dealing with nagging back pain after a long commute, sciatica that flares when you sit, or headaches and migraines that seem to start in your neck, our team takes time to find the root cause first. From there we build a clear plan built around drug-free chiropractic care and supportive massage therapy.
If you live or work in St. Paul and want practical, hands-on relief that respects your schedule, give us a call at (612) 822-0149. We’d be glad to help you feel more like yourself — and get you back to enjoying everything from Rice Park to the Mississippi River trails.
Proudly serving: Highland Park, Macalester-Groveland, Summit Hill, Como Park, Summit-University, West Seventh.

What our patients say
“I had a wonderful experience at Nokomis Chiropractic & Wellness! The staff was so friendly, welcoming, and caring. They took the time to listen to my concerns and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire experience. I really appreciated the personalized care and attention to detail.”
“I had never been to a chiropractor before, and I’m very glad I came here. Dr. Olson and his team are very welcoming and professional and I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. My sciatic nerve pain was horrible and constant before I came in. After a mix of daily stretching, the very effective decompression machine, and adjustments, I’m in a much better place and able to enjoy life without pain again. I would definitely recommend.”
“Rachael, Jess, and Dr. Olson are welcoming and friendly! Dr. Olson provides a comprehensive, approachable care plan. From moderate spinal adjustments, to the decompression table, and finally "the big pull," supported by an at-home exercise regimen to reinforce progress, I feel completely taken care of. I've already seen major improvements in my neck and back pain and have no doubt those will continue.”
