Meet the Doctors

Drs. Kevin and Kari Wilhelmi have been freeing people from pain since 2003 in their clinic in Minneapolis, MN. As Chiropractors with experience, our professionals are committed to promoting the health and well being of their patients.

Dr. Kari Wilhelmi attended Northwestern College of Chiropractic after attaining her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Minnesota Duluth.She specializes in hands-on care with an emphasis on personalized treatments for patients of all ages. She has been trained in Diversified, Activator and Applied Kinesiology chiropractic techniques.She is also certified in acupuncture based on Chinese Medicine. She has a special interest in delivering quality chiropractic care to pregnant women and children.

Kari became interested in chiropractic after a fall on the ice during college.She began developing pain almost a year after the fall and could not imagine why she was having so many problems at such a young age. After suffering through months of lower back pain, chiropractic adjustments had her feeling brand new. Her chiropractor took the time to explain to her why she was experiencing this type of pain and how chiropractic along with specific exercises could help manage it.She decided if she could help improve people’s lives that way, she would have a worthwhile life and an enjoyable career.Fate stepped in a second time when she met her future husband, Kevin Wilhelmi, at chiropractic school. In her personal time, Kari enjoys reading, music, yoga, cooking and baking, the outdoors, and time with family and friends. The couple have a young son who brings them much joy!

Dr. Kevin Wilhelmi attended Northwestern College of Chiropractic after attaining his Bachelor’s degree from North Dakota State University in Fargo, North Dakota.He focuses on combining chiropractic adjustments with complimentary therapies to heal chronic conditions or new injuries. He has been trained in Diversified, Activator and Applied Kinesiology chiropractic techniques.These techniques allow Dr. Wilhelmi to get to the source of each patient’s unique condition.

Kevin was introduced to chiropractic after experiencing unexplained back pain during his sophomore year of college.He consulted medical doctors, physical therapists, osteopaths and went through x-rays, MRI, a bone scan and CT scan.Though some of their treatments were helpful, nothing got to the source of the problem. Kevin was even sleeping in a chair for three months!Upon visiting a chiropractor, he began having relief after just a few treatments.He was soon functioning (and sleeping!) much better.

Kevin’s interests include hockey, golf, softball, fishing, music, working out at the health club and spending time with his son.

Both doctors focus on living a healthy lifestyle and living in the chiropractic philosophy of natural health.They enjoy becoming advisors to their patients on how to improve their life through a healthy spine, allergy elimination, exercise and nutrition.  They are committed to help you to accelerate and/or maintain your journey to good health.
