Torticollis, Neck Mobility & Feeding Success Stories
Torticollis, Irregular Bowel Movements
Millie had started care with concerns torticollis, irregular bowel movements causing discomfort, and problems with reflux. Since coming to Dr Dave, Millie has fewer spit ups, constipation is a thing of the past, and more motion and control in her neck – which has resulted in Millie enjoying tummy time! As an extra bonus, Millies’s sleep has been 10X better than before and she is able to handle sickness a lot easier!
No More Torticollis
Our little Claire Bear is a very happy baby, but struggled with severe torticollis, back arching, low core, and occasional stomach issues. This made it difficult for her to sit up on her own and was contributing to some flatness on the back of her head. She had a pretty intense entrance into this world and spent the majority of her last month in the womb sitting quite low, causing stress on her neck. We tried doing stretches on our own with her, but nothing was helping with her inability to turn her head to the left. She was also a chronic catnapper, never fully comfortable enough to get great rest.
Chiropractic care has completely changed Claire’s sleeping habits and she can now turn her head like a tiny owl! She is taking two naps a day like a champ, and sleeping through the night. She is also sitting up, and on the move with crawling! Her chronic congestion has also slowed down a bit!
We chose Dr. Dave and Hanson Family Chiropractic because we had such great results with our other daughter, Gracie. We knew that doing this would be the best move for Claire as well, and we (and she!) couldn’t be happier. It’s been wonderful to see the staff at Hanson again, as they are always so kind, caring, and knowledgeable. We feel totally comfortable and reassured that both our girls have been in great hands with Dr. Dave and his practice. If you are feeling hesitant about chiropractic care, don’t. Go see Hanson Family Chiropractic sooner rather than later, you won’t regret it!

Care Is Catered to What You Need
My Daughter Austin was about 4 weeks when I noticed she preferred looking to one side over the other. After some research I learned this was not normal and I knew since she had had a traumatic birth (3 days of labor & drugs), I decided to look into chiropractic care for infants. We started coming to see Dr. Dave about 8 weeks and noticed a significant improvement in her neck mobility, eating habits, and sleep. She is 3 months now and is continuing to improve- she is a much happier baby! Austin is able to move her head from left to right whereas before she was looking left and I had to move her head to look right and she would fight it. She also has less reflux when eating, she’s much more tolerable of tummy time now that her neck mobility has improved and is generally a chill, happy baby. I love the care we have received. Natasha and Megan are always so helpful and welcoming and we love coming to see them. Dr. Dave listens and addresses any questions I have and cares about the wellbeing of my kid and I very much appreciate that. I would highly recommend Hanson Family Chiropractic for you family’s musculoskeletal needs, from youngest to oldest, the care is catered to what you need. Once I go back to work, I will probably start getting adjustments for myself too.

Colic and Reflux Are Gone
My Daughter started seeing Dr. Dave Hanson at 2 months old. I was desperate for help and would try anything to give my daughter Callie some relief. The poor thing had Colic and Reflux. She was always miserable and feedings felt impossible because she had so much discomfort from her acid reflux. When I got a call back from Natasha, she was so sweet and got me in right away. After the first adjustment, I saw an improvement that night. She would cry from 5:00 pm -8:00 pm and those evening hours would be so hard. To my surprise, she cried much less and it was such a relief. Being first-time parents with a colicky baby was so stressful and I am so thankful for the Hanson Family Team. My daughter stopped crying during her feedings and they became more enjoyable. I also was able to sleep my baby flat in a bassinet. For 3 months she could only sleep in her bouncer due to her reflux. Callie just hit 4.5 months old and her colic and reflux are gone. We love Dr. Hanson and his team and will continue to get her adjusted.

Chiropractic Care Has Solved the Problem!
I started my infant on chiropractic care because she was nursing differently on the left side than on the right side. I was having pain nursing her, and I’d heard that when there’s a difference between the sides, often chiropractic care can help. She was also often nursing with her shoulders raised up towards her ears. We had already gotten her tongue tie and lip tie released and were also in feeding therapy. I’m happy to report that chiropractic care has solved the problem! I no longer have pain while nursing, and no discrepancies between sides. Her shoulders are also much more relaxed when nursing. Dr. Dave was great- very sensitive to my concerns, and very gentle with and responsive to my baby. The front desk staff was always welcoming and friendly. The office is impeccably clean, bright, and stylishly decorated.
