Sinus Relief At Last
I have struggled with sinus and allergy issues/concerns since I was young. More recently my right side being completely blocked and had continuous sinus infections. I have been to an ENT and prescribed nasal sprays – I prefer holistic approaches to my health and looked for other options.
I notice a huge improvement in my sinus drainage and regarding my sinus allergies – I no longer cough while eating foods and all while not being on medications or prescriptions. Our family loves Dr. Dave and the Hanson Family. Thank you for improving our health.

Nothing Short of Amazing
I was having lower back pain around 2 months before I called for a consultation. I thought it was sore from working out, but it just got worse with time. Aside from it affecting my workouts, it also made simple things very difficult and painful (getting in & out of the car, picking up my kids, moving/picking up anything of significant weight). Without the back pain I have been able to get back to my normal workout routine. I can carry my kids to bed, stand on my feet for hours for work and ride in the car for long periods of time without pain or extra back support. I think I may even be sleeping better! The whole Hanson team has been nothing short of amazing. They are all so genuine, kind, friendly, and truly care about your health and quality of life. I am so thankful I was referred to Dr. Dave. He has helped me get back to the lifestyle I need and love!

Dr Hanson and the Whole Team are Incredible
When I first came to Dr. Dave, my body was in pain. I had headaches and was not able to effectively manage stress. Being a mom of 3 with a stressful job, I knew I needed to try something new to improve my quality of life. In only a few months of chiropractic care, I am able to effectively manage stress, sleep well, and finally lose weight! These are major wins to celebrate! Dr. Dave and the whole team are incredible. They are so warm and friendly and it’s such a fun environment to be a part of. I can’t say enough good things about the whole team.

Such A Positive Impact On My Life
I have suffered from back, neck and pelvic pain for the past 15 years. Over time I have also developed daily tension headaches, as well as heavy brain fog. After years of attempting to “work my way through it” with exercise, regular stretching, taking meds as needed, trying different vitamins and supplements, etc… nothing really seemed to help me. After going through a very stressful past year, I started to have trouble sleeping nightly and making it comfortably through the day. I had trouble keeping up at work and home without feeling exhausted. I purchased a new bed, went through countless new pillows, changed my habits, drank more water, changed my diet, tried to lower my stress level, lots of Epsom Salt baths, less screen time, and did everything I knew how. One can only take pain and sleepless nights for so long… so I started researching other methods to help myself and decided upon trying chiropractic care.
Since starting my journey with Hanson Family Chiropractic, I am happy to report I have full mobility of my neck and am now able to comfortably sleep through the night. My lower back pain has significantly improved, and my brain fog has lifted. My quality of life has taken an overall huge leap in the right direction and I look forward to my continued weekly visits with Dr. Hanson to stay on the right track!

Very Positive and Uplifting
I started chiropractic care because after having 2 children within 2 years, my body felt very off and it was difficult for me to take care of my children while experiencing pain. The pain began when I was pregnant with my second child and continued to get worse as he became heavier and having to hold him for long periods of time. I have been experiencing discomfort since Fall 2020 and since being under the care of Dr. Hanson starting in September 2021, I have felt a significant difference from when I originally began my chiropractic journey. At its worst when I was pregnant, it felt like sharp shooting pains down my lower back and after birth, my spine would feel very crunched and my left side felt sore due to overcompensation. I have tried chiropractor care prior to Dr. Hanson, but I have seen more improvement in my overall health and functioning this past month than I have in a year when I went somewhere else. I also work out 5-6 days a week and find keeping active helps with mobility and function.
From the moment I stepped into this office, I felt so welcomed. The energy of the team is very positive and uplifting, which I find is very refreshing and always makes me look forward to my sessions. Everyone is so wonderful and you can tell they genuinely care about each of their patients. Dr. Hanson is not only extremely knowledgeable but is also very personable and always makes sure you are comfortable. Not only is the chiropractic care amazing, but the office environment and staff are too. I have and will continue to recommend this office to anyone who is in need of a chiropractor.

Everyone Is So Incredibly Kind
I started seeing Dr. Hanson about a month ago with a pretty dedicated schedule of appointments a few times a week. I have always experienced upper & mid-back pain pretty much my whole life. I never really did anything to try to help and was just accepting that I was always hurting. Then I got pregnant with my first child. Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding made that pain much worse. I was referred to Dr. Hanson by a friend and I am so glad I listened! I am able to hold my baby for longer periods of time without pain and nursing her is a lot more comfortable! Everyone at Hanson Family Chiropractic is so incredibly kind! You are always greeted with a smiling face. Dr. Hanson truly cares about helping people and his entire team is lovely.

I Feel More Relaxed Just Walking In The Door
I have had a bad lower back since carrying my kids around 12 years ago. My back would go out at least once a year and I would be laid up for days. I went to different doctors, but there was never any relief. My back feels about 90% better since getting adjustments! I feel like I am walking straighter and don’t need to sit on the heating pad every single night. Everything is so soothing and relaxing here. The decor and staff are mellow & calm. I feel more relaxed just walking in the door.

The Benefits of Regular Adjustments Caught Me By Surprise
Initially, I sought out chiropractic care due to lower back pain which was chronic and mild most of the time, but would flare to severe on occasion. I am one-third of the way through my treatment plan and can say that my back is experiencing progressive relief, which I expected, but the “side” benefits of regular adjustments have caught me by surprise. For the past few years, I have struggled with my fingertips going numb when I am cold. Even a trip to an air-conditioned grocery store in the summer would trigger the numbness. To the best of my knowledge, this would typically be diagnosed as Raynaud’s Disease, and I never knew what to do about it. A few weeks ago, I realized that I have not had the numb sensation in my fingers at all this winter. I fully believe it is due to my body having better alignment from regular adjustments. I look forward to greater health and more surprises during my remaining time of treatment. Thank you, Dr. Dave! And thank you to my front desk friends at the office. You ladies brighten my day!

The Entire Team at HFC is Wonderful
I started chiropractic care due to back/neck pain. I’m not sure what initially caused the pain…stress (well because 2020 ), years of carrying my 2 boys, and poor posture. I wasn’t able to exercise, run around with my 2 boys, my anxiety was high and my overall mood was terrible due to being in pain and not getting a good night’s sleep. I went to the doctor and she suggested physical therapy or chiropractic care. I like to try and take a more natural approach whenever possible rather than go the medication route. I’m so thankful I chose to start chiropractic care because now I barely have any back/neck pain, I have fewer headaches, I’m sleeping better at night, I can exercise again, and keep up with my 2 boys and I feel more like myself again. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! The entire team at HFC is wonderful. They always greet you with a smile, are super friendly, and genuinely care about your personal well-being. The office is beautiful and very welcoming as well.

Exceeded My Expectations
I started experiencing SI Joint pain during my 3rd trimester of pregnancy, which made caring for my 2 year old extremely difficult. At it’s worst, I couldn’t make it up the stairs without crying.After Several adjustments, the pain eased and I was able to move and sustain the physical motions I needed throughout the day without much thought! Dr. Dave and the office staff completely exceeded my expectations! From the first day I came in, I felt welcome. They always made me feel like my health journey mattered to them and I was always greeted with a friendly smile!

Shoulder Blade and Lower Back Pain
I actually started seeing Dr. Dave back in March, but it was for my 8-week-old son. My son has now graduated from his care plan. But when HFC offered their Mother’s Day free scan I figured since I had been there for a few months I should take advantage of the offer. I have always had on-and-off shoulder blade pain and lower back pain as well. Along with a growing child, I knew I wanted to feel the best I could be to be the best mom but also just help any future pain that might occur.
I am no longer in pain and if I ever sleep wrong I am able to get right in to see Dr Dave and I feel 10x better after one adjustment. I am actually now 4.5 months pregnant and Dr. Dave was the second person to find out next to my husband so I could ensure I had a good plan of care for the next 9 months. I can say I have zero back pain this pregnancy and my weekly adjustments are helping me keep up with my crazy 10-month-old who is on the move now.
The HFC team is amazing. They really do feel like family when I walk in the door. I know if I ever am in a pinch and need to bring my son, the ladies there will play with him and entertain him during my appointment. They take the time to get to know you and remember small details about you, your family, and your life. I 100% recommend Dr Dave for any chiropractic needs.

My Best Pregnancy!
Since starting chiropractic care I have experienced a better quality of life. I have less tension in my back, which is life changing (I would need my husband to rub my shoulders almost daily). This has been my best pregnancy out of 4! I had no back pain or pelvic pain at 30 weeks – I was in tears because of those issues with my pregnancy prior. During care, I also noticed improved sleep, increased energy compared to other pregnancies, decreased stress, and a better attitude.

I Felt Welcomed and Cared For
During the first trimester of my pregnancy, I began experiencing severe sciatica pain and numbness in my leg; much worse and earlier than in my pervious pregnancy. The frequency of this pain made it challenging to stand, walk, or play with my toddler for more than 30 minutes at a time. I am celebrating another healthy (& pain-free) pregnancy! My chiropractic care has helped me stay in touch with my body’s needs for rest, activity, and nourishment. This team is chick-fil-a friendly! Everyone truly embodies the family culture and makes me feel welcome and cared for. I look forward to every visit to HFC!

My Best Pregnancy
“I started chiropractic care when I was about 7 months pregnant with my 4th baby. I had sciatic nerve pain issues that started with my 1st pregnancy and occurred with each pregnancy. I just dealt with it the first 2 pregnancies, thinking it was just one of those ailments that happened during pregnancy and I was one of the unlucky ones to have to deal with it. Then I tried physical therapy during my 3rd pregnancy. It helped a little bit but the pain/discomfort was still present. It was also a time commitment to attend my 45-minute appointments and find a babysitter. I also switched from working 12-hour shifts to working 8-hour shifts, because my body couldn’t handle the long days. I heard about Dr. Dave from a friend who had seen him during her pregnancy. Chiropractic care was never suggested by my physician and I knew it was out there but I had never really considered it as an option for myself. But I was desperate for something to help so I made the decision to try it.
“The staff at Hanson Family Chiropractic is hands down, the absolute BEST! You are always greeted with a warm and genuine smile. They have fun celebrations and giveaways throughout the year. It is a family-friendly office and my kids love to play in the kids’ area during my adjustment or love to grab an apple from the fruit basket on the way out. The staff has walked my baby around the office in the stroller if he’s fussy during my adjustment. Dr. Dave is also the BEST! He is always smiling and happy, he’s easy to talk to, and he’s great with the kids. His passion is evident in all he does! You are treated like family here!”

Highly Recommend
I started coming to Hanson Chiropractic once I reached 30 weeks pregnant and I couldn’t say more amazing things about my experience! Dr. Hanson has really helped me towards the end of my pregnancy, better sleep and all-over pain is so much more manageable! My only complaint is that I didn’t start coming sooner! Highly recommend to anyone especially expecting mamas!

I No Longer Need Pain Medication
I started chiropractic care because I was experiencing daily headaches and lots of back pain. I was taking over-the-counter pain medicine every day. I found out I was pregnant and decided it was time to do something about all of the pain I was in. I had a very uncomfortable pregnancy with my daughter, and I wanted to be more comfortable and healthy this time around! Since I’ve started getting adjusted, I no longer experience daily headaches or back pain! I no longer need to take pain medication, and overall I feel a lot healthier and more prepared to have my baby! I am also sleeping better at night, which is a huge bonus. The whole team at Hanson Family Chiropractic is amazing! They are all extremely friendly, and they remember things about my life that I’ve told them and make sure to follow up with me about how things are going. Dr. Dave makes you feel very comfortable, and overall the environment is just great!

I Can Take Care of my Kids Without any Pain
I started chiropractic care when I was 7 months pregnant with my second baby. I was interested in the Webster technique as my first unmedicated labor was extremely long and unpleasant, to say the least. I wanted to be more proactive in preparing for this labor in hopes that it would be more enjoyable, faster, and less “painful”. However, I was also having really bad lower back pain and was having to wear a pregnancy support band daily but I was still having pain, and obviously, the bands are not that
comfortable to wear in the first place. That back pain made it difficult to stand for long periods of time and affected how I interacted and played with my then 2-year-old at the time.
Not recent, but my second (unmedicated) labor and delivery was a dream and I credit some of that to the chiropractic care I received prior to giving birth. I continue to celebrate how my lower back pain has been kept at bay (first from being pregnant and then from carrying around 2 babies)! I’m able to play with and take care of my kids without any pain. It went from being on my mind constantly to a thing of the past!
Dr. Dave and the entire team at Hanson Chiropractic are amazing. Everyone is genuinely so incredibly friendly and kind. Everyone takes the time to get to know you and to even just ask about your day. They really make you feel like family. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Atmosphere Radiates Joy, Calm, and Warmth
I have been seeing Dr. Hanson for a little over a year now. I first came to him with terrible migraines that prohibited me from functioning in my day-to-day life. I was tired of not having the ability to be present with my 2 young children and constantly taking medication to be able to manage my day. I knew I needed to fix this problem. Shortly after seeing Dr. Hanson for a few chiropractic sessions I found out I was pregnant with my third baby! Soon I was not only getting adjusted to eliminate my migraines, but I was also seeking relief from typical pregnancy aches and pains, nausea, and exhaustion.
It was not an immediate fix, however, over time and with consistency, I can say I am no longer experiencing any migraines. Which is not something I have been able to say for over six years. I can also say that even though this was my third pregnancy I felt great throughout the entire nine months and had a safe and healthy delivery.
Everyone working here is wonderful. The atmosphere radiates joy, calm, and warmth. It’s hard not to leave feeling encouraged and uplifted. I would recommend Hanson Family Chiropractic to anyone, as chiropractic care is an essential part of healing and maintaining health.

So Welcoming & Joyful!
I got pregnant with our third baby and started immediately having sciatica pain and insomnia. I’ve had a pretty healthy lifestyle before getting chiropractic help but I knew if I didn’t get it taken care of early, it would only get worse. 3 months into my treatment and I already sleep better and I’ve had no sciatic nerve pain since starting! Every week as I feel my body pulling apart gradually, I’m so happy I get to be aligned so I’m not walking around like a grandma every day. Dr. Hanson and his team are WONDERFUL! The girls at the front are genuinely kind and hospitable. Basically, I want to be their friends outside of my weekly chiropractic care because they’re so welcoming and joyful. Dr. Hanson is a calming presence and is so kind and knowledgeable. I’m so thankful I found you guys!”
