Sleep Issues / Insomnia
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!”

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.

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 healthier 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!

A Better Mom, Nurse, and Wife
I came to HFC because I was having some troublesome sciatic pain during my pregnancy. It was beginning to seriously affect my ability to care for patients at work (I’m an emergency nurse) and I was concerned about how it was shaping my pregnancy in terms of staying active and sleeping well.
I tried plenty of other tactics! Stretching, braces, and plenty of visits to my OB to try and solve the problem. I was offered medications but I didn’t feel like taking them because I was concerned, they may affect my daughter. It was exhausting to feel like less than myself on top of already balancing a pregnancy.
Goodness, I felt such a wave of relief. I truly don’t mind pain when I know I’m working towards a solution, and was so excited to see one on the horizon! I began feeling better when my OB had told me that the issue would only worsen during the pregnancy as I grew. I was so thankful to have stepped out and taken what felt like a risk to me to discover that in fact, I was safe and so was my baby.
I can happily run around to care for both my daughter and husband, as well as my acutely ill patients in my ER. I occasionally get a slight twinge of pain once a week instead of what had become a constant source of pain awake and asleep. I’ve also noticed improvements in my sleep. What was a huge blessing though was the change in headaches that I had, which I didn’t even attempt to address through chiro treatments but certainly improved regardless. I’m a better mama, nurse, and wife.

Back Pain Dramatically Decreased!
At around 5 1/2 months of being pregnant, I started to experience a lot of back pain daytime and night. No matter what I did, no matter what position I tried to sit or lay in, I could not get comfy and the pain would not go away! This back pain led to many sleepless nights, causing a very cranky lady. At my initial 1st visit it was apparent that the entire tribe truly was committed to my treatment and wanted nothing but a healthy and comfy pregnancy for me. At each visit, I feel so welcome and listened to by every member. Soon after my first few visits, my back pain dramatically decreased. It was such a relief to know that my pregnancy did not have to be uncomfortable and I can enjoy it without back pain. At 9 months pregnant now, I have very little back pain! When the pain is there, after an adjustment it almost immediately goes away! Without the pain, I have been able to keep on with my workout routines, my sleeping hasn’t been disrupted by pain, and I have been able to enjoy my pregnancy to its fullest!

Hopeful for a Healthy and Uneventful Pregnancy
“I have struggled with back pain most of my life as a result of sports, bad posture and an abnormal curvature of my spine. By the time I started seeing Dr. Dave I couldn’t lay flat on my back at all and sleeping was painful and uncomfortable. I’ve also struggled with infertility and my first pregnancy after IVF was very unhealthy and my son was born with a lot of problems.
After seeing Dr. Dave my back pain has cleared up quickly. We also did another round of IVF, got pregnant easily and so far, no issues. I’m hopeful this will continue to be a healthy and uneventful pregnancy under Dr. Dave’s care.
Dr. Dave and his tribe are like family. They are caring, positive and always greet me at the door with a smile. They hold my son while I get adjusted and share in our joys and progress. I love everything about each one of them.”

Conceived Right Away and Had an Easy Pregnancy
“I started chiro care 8 months ago because I had chronic headaches and a lot of lower back pain. I was always popping Ibuprofen to fight the pain and discomfort. The back pain affected my sleep and the headaches affected my ability to be my best at work. There were days I had trouble getting out of bed because I consistently would wake with a headache….
Since seeing Dr. Dave, I cannot even tell you the last time I had a headache… let alone pop a painkiller! I know it has been more than a year!
I believe chiro care helped me get pregnant right away. In March 2016 I was told that I was going to have a difficult time conceiving…. and I was pregnant in April 2016 (proved them wrong!). I saw Dr. Dave through the entire pregnancy and, I believe, because of this, all of the aches and pains people expect throughout pregnancy did not affect me. I never struggled sleeping, I did not have any pelvic discomfort, I do not have any back pain until the very end of the pregnancy, I was able to work out at the gym and work (on my feet all day) until the day my water broke!
The team at Hanson Family Chiropractic is just amazing! I, honestly, have never met a group of nicer individuals. They put their patients first and are truly devoted to the well-being of everyone who walks into the office. The Hanson Family Chiropractic environment is like one you do not come across often! I have nothing but positive things to say about the Hanson Family Chiro Staff!”
