I saw 2 PTs for months each and 2 Orthos and no one could figure out why I wasn’t able to run for the last 18 months. Dr. Cotter targeted the problem in a few moments and gave me exercises I could do to stretch and strengthen my tendon so I can run again!!!!! He’s a true problem solver and if I ever have a mystery again I know someone who can help. Thank you so much!

I had never been to a chiropractor before I herniated a disc. I wasn't sure what to expect but was willing to try anything for relief from the incapacitating pain I was experiencing. In three visits Dr. Cotter had me to a point I could stand up out of bed in the morning. After six visits I was back to doing most normal, every day functions. Enough good things cannot be said about this practice and the compassion that was given to me during my care, Dr. Cotter is worth every penny spent.

The care you receive here is very intentional and collaborative, and they make sure not to overdo adjustments. Dr. Potter has been awesome in our first couple sessions, and it’s been great to get care from a lgbtqia+ friendly provider

I have been going to Active Health KC since 2014. Dr. Cotter is basically a wizard at helping resolve many of my old injuries that I never thought could get worked out. He is very intentional with his work, listens to me when I am talking to him about what is going on and he always provides excellent treatment in his office as well as stretches and workouts I can do to better strengthen imbalances I may have.

I have been to several chiropractors throughout the years and Active Health KC has definitely made their way to the top of the list. Soly was immediately helpful over the phone when making the consultation appointment and provided quick information regarding insurance coverage/benefits. Having only been the first appointment, I cannot speak to longterm effects of treatment - but, I can certainly speak to the atmosphere and likeliness of the staff. Dr. Cotter is fantastic! Dr. Cotter is friendly, knowledgable, and inclusive. With a holistic approach that is immediately sensed, I can already tell that I will enjoy working with Dr. Cotter for any chiropractic needs. If you are hesitant, wait no further! Check them out!

Dr. Cotter is an amazing individual and I can’t thank him enough for giving me my life back. I struggled with back pain and hip pain for almost 2 years prior to seeing him. I had multiple test done, MRIs , seen multiple doctors, specialist and chiropractors looking for someone with answers to why I constantly hurt. After one visit with Dr. Cotter I found instant relief. He worked with me for a few months performing the dry needling on my glut muscles and gave me exercises to do at home. I have not been back in almost 5 months because my pain is so minimal now. I highly recommend seeing him and I can’t stress that enough. Thank you Dr. Cotter!

I've been seeing Dr. Cotter for a couple of months now and feel much better. I was having a bizarre shooting pain in my neck and arm that was persistent and interfering with me being able to do my job. I visited Dr. Cotter and he gave me a quality adjustment in the office and also gave me some exercises to do on my own at home. I feel like he really listened to me and my issues and even followed up with me to see how I was feeling in the days following. If you want a reliable and welcoming chiropractic experience I definitely recommend Dr. Cotter at Active Health Solutions. Very LGBTQ+ friendly, which can be an issue for people seeking new health providers.

I was suffering from shoulder pain for about 7 months that kept me from participating in the sporting activities that I love. A friend recommended me to Dr. Tom Cotter at Active Health Solutions. Dr. Cotter was able to diagnose my issue after the first visit. He performed traditional chiropractic adjustments, ART, and dry needle acupuncture. After 3 visits my shoulder felt as good as new and I was able to go back to participating in the sports I love. What I appreciated most about Dr. Cotter was that on my first visit he said his goal was to get me to a point where his services were no longer necessary. I have been to quite a few chiropractors before and all of them were adamant that I keep up with regular adjustments, but really it just felt like they wanted my money. With Dr. Cotter it seemed that he was genuinely interested in helping me solve my issue. I still see Dr. Cotter semi-regularly, whenever I feel my body is in need of some help, but he never pushes me to come in more than necessary. Thank you Dr. Cotter and Active Health Solutions for all your help!

Dr. Cotter has really helped with my back and hip pain. He listens and evaluates quickly and accurately. He gave me simple, quick exercises that I can do easily. I have felt so much relief since going to him.

Dr. Tom listened to my aches and problem solved the aches to find a solution. He had solutions and ideas help me feel better! He was professional. I’m glad I made the appointment!

Dr Tom is great to work with and knows what he is doing. He is well versed in many different types of chiropractic care adjustments to manage problems.

I was presently surprised with my experience on my intro visit. I showed up early expecting to have to fill out mounds of paperwork. However, nothing more needed to be done and I was seen 15 minutes early. The Chiropractor was listening to everything I was saying about my issues and took the time to really evaluate what was going on and give me advice on how I can make change in my life to correct the problems.

Hands down the most amazing person!! Tom has helped me change my life and my health so much over the last several years. Things I never thought I could do, I can. And a huge part of that is working with him!!

Dr Tom thinks outside the box, and puts a lot of effort into treating a condition. I feel so much better after just 2 visits.

This was my first chiropractor experience, so I was nervous and a bit skeptical. However, Dr. Cotter was exactly what my friends had described -- professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and skilled. He spent a lot of time educating me about back mechanics, problems that can occur, and how to treat my acute issue. He performed a few maneuvers during the visit that provided immediate relief, but he also walked me through exercises that will help strengthen my spine and prevent future problems. Dr. Cotter is exactly what I needed!

Dr Cotter is wonderful! Personable, knowledgeable and professional. He is honest with you about your treatment and supportive of your personal/physical goals.
