“I’m a career firefighter and have suffered from a back injury from the job for the last 8 years. I was sent to a chiropractor years ago after reinjuring my back, initially I felt a little relief from my injury, but it never really went away and after 3 years of going to them I wasn’t getting better. I started to think I was going to spend the rest of my life with some degree of back pain. I stumbled across Dr Jeff at my daughters gymnastics class and we started talking about my injury. He invited me to his practice to see how he could help relive my pain. Within the first week I was feeling better than I had felt in 8 years since my initial back injury, week 2 was continued progress in reducing my pain to almost nothing. The truest test of his great work has been how good I’ve felt after shoveling and snow blowing after these last few storms. Dr Jeff’s multiple disciplines in chiropractic care and ability to customize your treatments to best suit your injury, coupled with his genuine care and concern are Amazing! When you tell him how your feeling from visit to visit he is listening and using your input to to maximize the output of your care. This is Good Ole Fashioned Service, his whole office has a great attitude and do their Best to work with you.”

“Dr. Plaster has changed our lives. I’m not joking when I say that. He took in our infant when she was only 8 months old after a car accident. I can’t stress how much he’s helped us feel more confident about her condition. He has also taken me in after I recently got in a car accident. Thank you so much!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough wonderful things about Eagle and Trace! After being in an accident, I was dealing with stiffness, aches and pains, and back discomfort. A friend recommended this place to me, and I’m so thankful I listened. From the very first visit, I felt welcomed, cared for, and truly listened to. Dr. Jeff Plaster is absolutely wonderful! He is kind, caring, patient, and takes the time to listen and understand exactly what you’re experiencing. His adjustments have made such a noticeable difference for me. I feel more comfortable, less stiff, and relieved from so much of the discomfort I was experiencing. I also have to mention the amazing equipment and treatments they have here. Everything is so well-equipped and designed to help with aches, tension, stiffness, and pain. The combination of the adjustments, equipment, and massage therapy has made my experience even better. The massage is truly something special and has been incredibly relaxing and helpful! And the staff deserves a huge shout-out! Everyone is so friendly, caring, welcoming, and professional. They make you feel comfortable and valued from the moment you walk through the door. You can genuinely feel that they care about their patients and want you to feel your best. I’m so happy I found Eagle and Trace, and I would **highly recommend them to anyone looking for a chiropractor,”

Work injury FAQs

Should I report a work injury to my employer?+

Yes — report any work-related injury to your employer as soon as possible. Prompt reporting protects your health and creates the clear, timely record a workers’ compensation claim depends on. Even injuries that feel minor at first can become serious, so it’s best not to wait.

Does workers’ compensation cover chiropractic care in Minnesota?+

In most cases, yes. Minnesota workers’ compensation generally covers reasonable and necessary medical treatment for a work injury, and that can include chiropractic care. We verify your claim details up front and handle the billing so you’re clear on your coverage before treatment begins.

What if my claim was denied?+

A denial isn’t always the end of the road — claims are denied for many reasons, and some are resolved on review or appeal. We’ll still evaluate your injury, document our findings thoroughly, and talk through your options. If you’re working with an attorney, we coordinate with their office and provide the records they need.

What injuries do you treat?+

Back and neck strains and sprains, repetitive-use and overuse injuries, lifting injuries, slip-and-fall injuries, and the muscle, joint, and soft-tissue problems that come with physically demanding work.

Do you coordinate with my employer and insurer?+

Yes. We document your injuries, send the reports your claim requires, and communicate with your employer and workers’-comp insurer throughout your care — and with your attorney, if you have one — so the paperwork doesn’t fall on you.

Is the evaluation really complimentary?+

Yes — your initial work-injury evaluation is complimentary, with no cost and no obligation. If we find we can help, we’ll walk you through your findings, options, and coverage before any treatment begins.

What should I bring to my appointment?+

Bring your ID, your workers’-comp claim number and insurer information if you have them, and any incident or injury report from your employer. Wear comfortable clothing you can move in.
