Wonderful team! I feel the are dedicated to helping each patient. I always feel like they are listening to my concerns and address them with manageable steps and a professional approach.
Stiff neck? Sharp pain? Headaches after a long drive? We find the real cause. Then we fix it, not just mask it.

Neck pain from a desk job or a crash on I-94 won't always fade alone. We see lots of Elm Creek Business Park workers with tight necks from screen time. Others come in after a slip on an icy Arbor Lakes lot last winter. If your pain lasts more than a few days, see a doctor. Also see one if you feel numbness or headaches. Get help right away if pain started after an injury. Left alone, pain can turn into stiff joints and nerve trouble.[1] We use digital X-ray and Motion Study Analysis before we start any care. In our experience, guessing is how small problems turn into big ones.
Rear-end crashes on I-94 and I-494 cause hidden neck injuries. Pain can take days to show up.
Commuters working in Arbor Lakes offices often get tight shoulders and a forward-leaning head.
Icy driveways and parking lots cause sudden neck strain each December through February.
Hockey and soccer players from Fernbrook fields and local rinks often need neck checks after hits.
Spring pollen season and bad posture both lead to tight neck muscles and head pain.
Older adults in Arbor Lakes senior communities often get stiff from disc wear over time.
Neck pain that's ignored tends to get worse, not better. We don't just crack your neck and send you home. We use digital X-ray and Motion Study Analysis to find the real cause. Then we build a plan around it. One thing most people don't realize is how much a clear plan helps. That's why patients keep coming back and tell their neighbors.
Whether it's from a car crash, a desk job, or a fall on the ice, we can help. Call our chiropractor team today for a real plan and quick relief. You don't have to live with this.
We take the guesswork out of fixing your neck pain, step by step.
We start with a digital X-ray and Motion Study Analysis. This shows us exactly what's causing your pain, and where it hurts.
Dr. Tieri uses Gonstead adjustments by hand. When needed, he adds MLS M7 laser therapy or spinal decompression. Every plan is built around your exam, not a guess.
We check your progress at each visit. If something isn't working, we change the plan instead of repeating the same thing.
Cost depends on what's causing your pain and how long you've had it. A simple strain from shoveling costs less to fix than an old car accident injury. We give you a clear plan and price after your exam, so there are no surprises. Many car accident cases get covered through insurance. We work with Maple Grove Hospital's referral network on those claims. We never add care you don't need just to raise your bill.[1]

Very friendly very staff I feel like a new person walking out the door
I will go to total spine until the day I move out of Minnesota (which is probably never). Amazing!!! I get so excited everytime my appointments coming up 🥳
This clinic is amazing. I found it after searching for an alternative to surgery that my doctor advised for a diagnosed herniated disc in my neck. I was a bit skeptical that anything but surgery could fix my issue, given the amount of pain I had experienced for over 4 weeks with physical therapy and medication. I’m SO thankful for finding Total Spine Health & Injury Center/Dr. Brent Teiri. My plan included chiropractic, laser therapy, and traction. I started feeling less pain after 2 weeks of treatment and am back to living my life normally at the end of my treatment plan. Dr. Teiri and his team are all so caring and supportive. All around, such a great experience. I am so thankful for this team and their support for my recovery!
Staff and Dr Brent are great. Recently did spinal decompression and it felt amazing. See them regularly for my back issues.
I came to see Dr. Tieri a few months ago because my neck was giving me a lot of problems. I'd had a headache for six weeks, was having trouble sleeping, and had issues with the motor functions in my hands as well as arm pain. (By trade I am a welder so this was a massive issue for me.) He discovered that I had 4 cervical vertebrae that were not moving. I knew I had a compressed C6-C7 before I saw him but did not know things had gotten that bad.
I'm not going to go into detail but three months later it's like a new lease on life. No pain, no headaches, no electricity shooting down my arms, no swelling in my neck.... Total change in quality of life. I didn't realize how bad it was until it wasn't.
I totally recommend Total Spine and Dr. Tieri! Especially if other places just couldn't help.
Amazing 100/10 they keep me in one piece literally 💯highly recommend
The staff were always pleasant. The pain in my hips and legs was greatly reduced.
My chiropractor experience at Total Spine has been life changing for me. I have less back pain and I have increased my mobility.
Here are answers to what Maple Grove patients ask us most.
Cost depends on your exam and how many visits you need. Some patients need just a few adjustments. Others with disc issues need a longer plan with laser therapy or decompression. We'll give you a clear price after your first visit. No hidden fees, no pressure.
Most patients feel better within a few weeks of regular visits. Simple strains clear up faster. Old injuries usually take longer to fully fix. We'll tell you honestly what to expect for your case.
Heat, rest, and stretching can help mild stiffness. But if pain lasts more than a few days, or you feel numbness, see a pro. We've seen patients wait too long. A small strain turned into a big problem.
It depends on your case. Many patients start with two or three visits a week. Then we cut back as you improve. We change the plan based on your progress, not a fixed schedule.
As soon as you can, even if you feel fine at first. Whiplash pain often shows up days later. We see this a lot with patients hit on I-94 or 494. They felt fine until the next morning.
Numbness, tingling down your arm, or headaches with neck pain are signs to get checked soon. Pain that won't ease with rest is another red flag. Our digital X-ray and Motion Study Analysis help us see what's really going on.
Yes. We often pair adjustments with MLS M7 laser therapy to cut swelling without drugs. For disc issues, we may add non-surgical spinal decompression. Some patients also like our in-house massage for tight neck and shoulder muscles.
