BETTER MOBILITY

I have scoliosis and have had difficulty with my back for many years. I was unable to walk without support and could not stand without leaning on something for support. I noticed improvement very soon after beginning chiropractic care. I am now able to walk with straight posture for short distances, and I am able to do household tasks more easily.

I recommend chiropractic care, even for people like me who have had problems for many years. I recommend Dr. Dan—he is extremely professional, explains everything, is very supportive, and is the best! Dr. Dan and his staff have helped me learn about the exact nature of my problems, as well as what goals are important. My treatment plan is clear, as are my responsibilities.

EAR INFECTIONS

My toddler was suffering from frequent ear infections, which had been treated unsuccessfully with multiple courses of antibiotics and medications by his pediatrician. He was also very sick from the antibiotics. My son started chiropractic care about three months ago and has not developed an ear infection since then. Dr. Dan knew right away how to treat my child, and he took time to get to know my son and help him become comfortable before beginning treatment. I now bring my older son for chiropractic care as a preventative measure.

BREECH BABY TURNED WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE!

I learned about Andan Chiropractic online. I came here for care due to the breech presentation of my baby at 35 weeks gestation. When I began chiropractic care with Dr. Dan, he also suggested exercises and massage which I began doing. Within four days of beginning chiropractic care, I noticed improvement. I felt better overall, and the baby turned!

The staff at Andan Chiropractic is extremely accommodating and professional. They put me right at ease. I had no difficulty scheduling an urgent appointment. I would recommend this office!

RUNNING WITHOUT PAIN

I love the office! The staff is extremely friendly and is always willing to take the time to fully explain each and every aspect of chiropractic care. Within two weeks of beginning care, I noticed improvement. I was unaware of how much I had been compensating during different activities.  I enjoyed running, but it had been causing a lot of pain in my hips. A couple weeks after beginning care I was able to run without my hips hurting. I have completely changed how I take care of my family, and am now using a more natural and holistic approach when dealing with health issues.

GOLF - BACK PAIN

I am a golf-nut and would play everyday if I could. For the last twenty years plus, I had to take muscle relaxation pills and painkillers. Before playing 18 holes, I would take a muscle relaxant, knowing trouble was about to occur. In between nines, I would take a painkiller. After 18 holes, I would take another muscle relaxant.

Most of my friends would go on golf vacations and play 36 holes plus per day. The most I could play was 18 holes, because any more would really affect my back the next day.

After getting chiropractic adjustments for three months, I took a month’s vacation in Florida to play golf. Out of twenty-two days, I played 19 times and did not take any medications. My back never felt so good and would recommend chiropractic adjustments to everyone. I know golf isn’t the best exercise for back problems, but with the continuing program of adjustments, I feel my golf game can only improve.

 PAIN DURING PREGNANCY--PELVIC MISALIGNMENT 

I came to Dr. Dan at 28 weeks gestation with my first child because I was in a lot of pain. I had never been to a chiropractor previously. My OB basically ignored my complaints, saying it's normal to have this pain in pregnancy. I had even been to a pain specialist who confirmed that I had a pelvic misalignment, but he just said "There's nothing I can do to help you." I was devastated, since I was terrified of being put on bed rest. Fortunately I had done some research and found Dr. Dan through the ICPA website.

Dr. Dan confirmed that I had a sacral misalignment and that my baby was experiencing intrauterine constraint. He spent a lot of time explaining everything to me in detail and showed me examples of what was happening on the inside. The first session was quick and painless, and withing a few hours I started feeling much better. After a couple more visits, I am looking forward to the rest of my pregnancy with excitement! I believe I am going to have an easier time with labor and recovery because of the treatment I have received. I highly recommend Dr. Dan to any pregnant woman, but especially if you are having pelvic or back pain. Even though this pain may be ignored by some in the medical profession, it doesn't mean you have to suffer through it--there is hope!

Knee Pain - Overall Health

As a former hockey player, I had been suffering from knee pain and swelling for 40 years. When I came to see Dr. Dan, he recommended a corrective schedule that I followed for two years. Since then I have continued care on a maintenance basis. Since beginning care I have been able to work more in my garden without it being as painful with my knee. I have also noticed my health in general has been excellent, and I have not had the flu since I’ve been keeping up with my regular check-ups. I haven’t missed a day of work in 5 years. I can still continue to work a 32-hour work week with my 80th birthday right around the corner.

WEBSTER`S IN-UTERO CONSTRAINT TECHNIQUE – BREECH BABY

When I was concerned with the breech position of my baby, I found Dr. Dan through a recommendation from Palmer Chiropractic College. I did not want to have to “move the baby” with a physician`s assistance or have a C-section. I came to Dr. Dan on Thursday about 3:30pm and he informed me of the Webster`s Technique. He performed the technique and noticed that my left side was very tight. He loosened the ligaments around the uterus and about 12 hours later I could feel the baby turn!! It was confirmed by an ultrasound the next morning by my OBGYN!! Thanks for saving me AND my baby a lot of STRESS!!!!

LOWER BACK PAIN – DIFFICULTY WALKING – LACK OF ENERGY

I had been suffering from Lower Back pain that made it very difficult to walk even a few feet before I had to sit down. Within about three weeks of care, I noticed less pain and easier movement with walking. I also noticed I had more energy throughout the day! The office, doctor and staff are the most efficient and knowledgeable professionals that I`ve been to.

BREECH BABY TURNED!

I came to Andan Chiropractic due to breech presentation of my baby. The baby turned after two chiropractic adjustments, which was confirmed by ultrasound. My hips have also not been as sore. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. This was a great experience!

SCOLIOSIS – DEGENERATION - BONE SPURRING – LOW BACK PAIN

I am suffering from a scoliosis, degeneration and bone spurring of the spine. I wasn’t able to do my daily activities because of discomfort, stiffness and pain. I heard about Chiropractic through a friend, and within four months of care I noticed much improvement and increased energy. The office is professional and very knowledgeable. I’ve learned the importance of posture and exercise together with proper chiropractic care.

~ Jerry L. ~

LOW BACK PAIN – KNEE PAIN

I had been suffering from Low Back pain and knee pain, which made it difficult to do chores around the house. My pain was worse in the evening, and I seemed to tire quickly. I first learned about Chiropractic through my husband who was under care at Andan Chiropractic. I noticed relief within the first week of care. Andan Chiropractic provides excellent service, and Dr. Dan treats everyone with the best care! I feel minimal pressure during my adjustments and always feel better when leaving.

~ Natalie S. ~

HIP PAIN – DIFFICULTY WALKING - UNSTEADY

After breaking my hip I had rehab therapy in the hospital and at home. That was okay, but from past experience I knew more could be done. That’s when I decided to go to Andan Chiropractic Clinic. Dr. Dan explained the whole situation to me. It didn’t take long before I started to notice the difference. I can now do some things much easier and without the sharp pain that I had before. However, I know that you must cooperate with the doctor if you want the best results.

SPINE – NECK PAIN – HEADACHES – ANXIETY

I found out about Chiropractic through my brother and friends who see a Chiropractor regularly. I also attended a workshop by Dr. Dan on “5 Keys to Senior Health” at my church. My areas of concern included my spine, neck pains, headaches, and anxiety. I wasn’t able to turn my head much, and reaching bothered my arms. I felt sick to my stomach a lot and had no appetite. Within two weeks of care I noticed improvements in all areas. I have learned to use my body parts correctly. The office staff is wonderful, friendly and intelligent. Dr. Dan is great – he makes a healthy life worth living!

~ Toni M. ~

BACK PAIN – HAND/FINGERS – KNEES

I heard about Chiropractic through a friend, Jamie C., who is a patient of Dr. Dan’s. I was suffering from back pain, hand and finger problems and knee pain. This made it difficult to walk, bend and even open jars. I started to notice improvement within 6 weeks. The office staff is very friendly and helpful!

~ Janet S. ~

NUMBNESS IN FEET & LEGS – DIFFICULTY WALKING

I am Maria from Redford Twp. Since my father used to do some of the same work, I learned about the Chiropractic profession in my early days. I had the opportunity to meet Dr. Dan at my church. At that time I was having serious problems in my feet—they were feeling numb, which interfered a lot with my work and daily routine. As soon as a member of my church referred me to Dr. Dan, I visited his office. I felt so welcomed, and the staff was so nice and helpful. The first week I visited Dr. Dan I noticed improvement! He is so gentle, sweet, and very conscientious about his work and he keeps his professionalism. His office has several educational books. Dr. Dan is always concerned about his patients.

Dr. Dan also has several workshops where I personally have learned a lot about how the body works, how to have good posture, and how our body has the “Worlds Greatest Drugstore”.

Dr. Dan is not only a doctor but a human being with a lot of faith in God, so I call him “My Miracle Worker!”

CONGENITAL SCOLIOSIS – TORTICOLLIS - COUGH INDUCED ASTHMA - EAR INFECTIONS - PREGNANCY PAINS

My name is Jen W.—my children are Mason, Abigail, and Nora. I found out about chiropractic when I was searching for treatments/prevention of congenital scoliosis, unresolved torticollis. Abigail was suffering from congenital scoliosis/ torticollis. Mason was suffering from cough induced asthma. Both of the twins suffered from multiple ear infections. My husband and I had several areas of aches and pains. I was under care while pregnant with Nora to help relieve my pregnancy pains. With chiropractic care I noticed a significant reduction in the number of ear infections and less pain with pregnancy. I never understood the body’s interdependence, how everything is connected and functions better when aligned. Dr. Dan and the staff are so kind and generous. My kids love Dr. Dan and even play chiropractic at home, checking each other pretending to be Dr. Dan!

ALLERGIES – BACK PAIN – SWOLEN KNEE

When I discovered Chiropractic through my sister, allergies, swelling in my knee, and back pain had begun to interfere with my daily activities. I had to sit down a lot at work to accommodate my back and knee, which was not always easy to do as a teacher. After the first adjustment I noticed that my knee wasn’t swelling as much. With continued care my spring allergies have not been severe like they normally are. The back pain has been reduced, and the swelling in my knee only occurs ever so often.

With each adjustment you can feel the pressure applied by Dr. Dan, but no pain. You can truly feel the effects of the treatment after you leave. If my body could talk it would say that it’s always relaxed and happy. I’ve learned that everything is truly connected to your nervous system. As your spine begins to return to its correct position your overall health can become better.

PELVIC PAIN - PREGNANCY - WEAK IMMUNE SYSTEM

I found out about Chiropractic and Pregnancy online. I was suffering from pelvic pain early in my pregnancy, which was making it very difficult to move around. After receiving one week of corrective adjustments I noticed less pelvic pain. I also noticed I was able to fight off colds much easier, which was surprising due to my weakened immune system. With each adjustment I felt relief – no pain at all! While under care I learned the benefits of adjustments and prenatal care. Chiropractic is now a staple in my life, during pregnancy and after. The staff and doctor are a blessing – Thank you!

BREECH PREGNANCY - WEBSTER TECHNIQUE

When I found out that my baby was breech at 36 weeks, I scoured the internet for helpful information about what I might do to remedy the situation. This was my second pregnancy. The first pregnancy resulted in a c-section, and I desperately wanted to have a homebirth this time. I knew my odds for success would be diminished if the baby didn’t turn in the next couple of weeks.

It didn’t take long to find information about the Webster Technique and Chiropractic care for not only breech babies, but for healthy pregnancies in general. I quickly asked all my mom friends who they knew that could do this technique. The first recommendation I got was an office in Shelby Township. I knew that I would need more than one treatment and a 45-minute drive was too far for me to travel with my toddler in tow with only one vehicle in our family. I then consulted the birthnetwork guide to health care professionals in the area. Sure enough, there was a Chiropractor in my area that knew the technique!

Dr. Dan Laframboise and his office were so wonderful--they got me in that day. As soon as I walked in the office, I felt right at home. A very friendly staff greeted me and quickly had me in a room, giving me such wonderful information about Chiropractic, breastfeeding, homebirth, and even some pregnancy tea! It was such a wonderful treat to find that I did not need to hide (as I have found at other health care providers) the facts that I was planning a homebirth and taking a more natural approach to pregnancy and parenting!

Shortly after, I met Dr. Dan for the first time. What a wonderful man. He is someone you meet and within minutes you feel so comfortable that it is as if you have always known him. After explaining the Webster Technique to me and determining that it was what I needed, Dr. Dan met me in one of his very comfortable adjusting rooms. It was very reassuring to see they had pillows to make me comfortable during my adjustments. Dr. Dan took great care to explain everything he was going to do, which made me more comfortable. I felt very relaxed and at ease with Dr. Dan. That night, I felt a near 100% improvement. I was walking tall, the baby felt more relaxed, and I was so excited to see this working! I went to two more visits with Dr. Dan, feeling better each time. My midwife was still concerned over the baby`s position, so I did receive an ultrasound to confirm that yes indeed, the baby was now head down!

Thank you so much to Dr. Dan and your wonderful staff for treating me with such care and respect. I will surely recommend your office every chance I get!

HUNCHBACKED – NECK PAIN WITH LIMITED MOVEMENT

My name is Marty J. I first found out about Chiropractic through my father over 60 years ago, as I used to be hunchbacked. Recently I started experiencing a pinched nerve in my neck, which limited my movement and caused me pain. After 2 ½ weeks of corrective adjustments, I noticed more movement in my neck and less pain. The adjustments were comfortable, gentle and easy. The atmosphere in the office was clean and attractive, the staff was friendly and the doctor was competent.

LOW & MID BACK PAIN - CERVICAL PAIN - PRE-NATAL CARE - PEDIATRIC CARE

I received Chiropractic Adjustments at Andan Chiropractic before, during, and after my second pregnancy. Dr. Dan`s adjustments helped relieve SI joint pain, Low back pain, Neck pain and Mid back pain associated with the physical changes occurring in my body.

With my first pregnancy I had Chiropractic care through another clinic, but it was not specifically prenatal care. I didn’t get as much relief (if any) for my Low back and SI joint pain at the other clinic during my first pregnancy.

With my second labor and delivery I felt more aware of my body and of the progression of the final stage of labor. The length of my labor was 1/5 the length of my first labor. I was able to deliver my baby without any pain meds or an epidural, not because of a decrease in pain but because of the quick progression of labor. My Low back pain was more manageable during this labor.

In addition to my Chiropractic care I feel as though I have support from Dr. Dan and his staff. I look forward to going to my appointment for more than just the physical relief—I am also given helpful information on nutrition, supplements and nursing aides.

 Low Back Pain - Leg Pain - Headaches - Neck Stiffness

I was referred to Andan Chiropractic by two colleagues at work who had been in worse shape than I was and who had experienced relief through treatment there. At the time I was experiencing severe lower back pain and pain shooting throughout my right leg. I was also having tightness in my neck and headaches. I was in a constant state of discomfort and could not transition from lying or sitting to a standing position without a great deal of stabbing pain through my leg. At one point I was so inflexible that I could not even pull on a pair of socks. Getting in or out of my car was an effort. In general it negatively affected my everyday life. Apparently my particular malady was not such that one treatment would generate instant relief (as you often hear from others). While I was in hope of that outcome, the truth is the improvement came in small increments over about 18 visits. I was so focused on alleviating the pain in my lower back that I hadn`t even noticed that my headaches had diminished and that I was slowly changing my sitting, standing and sleeping habits. Now I have advised both my sons to get checked because of the relief I experienced and my understanding of the science of Chiropractic.

Upper Back - Shoulders - Neck Tension

Hi there, my name is Joni M.. I was referred by my friends at church. I was experiencing tension in my back and shoulders. These problems would sometimes interfere with my daily routine and family life. I started to notice major improvements after three months. I noticed other changes such as better optimal health and decreased laziness. I also learned how to sit and sleep properly so that these problems would not come back.

Severe Low Back Pain - Unable To Do Basic Duties

When my fiancé recommended that I go see Dr. Dan, I was experiencing severe lower back pain, lack of feeling on the right side of my body, and inflamed muscle tissue. It had become unbearable to do basic duties around the house, such as driving, walking, and taking care of my baby. Within the first few visits I was walking like I was 31 and not 60. I also noticed increased energy, more flexibility and the ability to sit without pain.

~ Rosann M-L. ~

Painful Backaches - High Blood Pressure

When I first began Chiropractic care, I had high blood pressure and painful back aches to the point that I couldn`t get out of bed. After my first adjustment, I noticed that I was able to get out of my bed in the morning without being severely crippled with pain. A few visits later, my blood pressure had become stable. I would definitely recommend Chiropractic to others.

~ Michael Z. ~

Crippling Headaches - Severe Low Back Pain

Hello, my name is Kathy. I was referred by a co-worker who is a patient of Dr. Dan`s. I was suffering from a crippling headache and severe low back pain. After coming to the office for a week, I noticed that my headaches were weaker, I seemed more relaxed, and I had decreased pain in my lower back. I believe in the healing of the body. I am very pleased with the level of care that I am receiving at Andan Chiropractic.

Low Back Pain - Disc Problems - Surgery Needed? - Heartburn - Acid Reflux

When I found out about Chiropractic through my family and friends (current Andan patients), I was suffering from low back pain and disc problems. I could hardly get around, and walking was becoming difficult. My M.D. put me on muscle relaxers, and later recommended I consult a surgeon. Faced with the prospect of surgery, I decided to go to Dr. Dan. After two or three visits I started to notice a decrease in pain and an increase in my activity level. Also, I noticed my heart burn and acid indigestion (which I`d had for 2 + years) nearly vanished after I started treatments. A little while later I returned for my follow-up visit with the Surgeon and he said I appeared to be doing well and was not a candidate for surgery anymore. He also mentioned that Chiropractic care had done well. I believe in the truth about Chiropractic. I would definitely recommend this treatment to others, and I have.

Neck - Shoulder - Arm - Low Back Pain

Hello, my name is Ginny Fenech. I found out about Chiropractic from the book “Cancer Overcome By Diet.” I was suffering from neck, shoulder, right arm, and lower back pain. The smallest tasks were annoying to perform because of the degree of discomfort they caused. After two weeks of seeing Dr. Dan, I noticed improvements (especially increased R.O.M. and extension). The staff and Dr. Dan are very professional, attentive and concerned for one`s individual needs. I would definitely recommend Chiropractic to others!

Neck Stiffness - Arm Pain - Low Back Pain - Headaches

I was suffering from neck stiffness, arm and low back pain, and frequent headaches. I found it difficult to move my head and to bend down. After seeing Dr. Dan for about two weeks my headaches were gone.  I noticed an increase in flexibility and more mobility in the joints. Besides feeling relief from pain, I learned that crossing your legs at the knees is bad for the spine & hips (FYI - when crossing your legs, cross them at the ankles).

Low Back Pain – Sciatica – Difficult To Sit, Stand Or Walk

I had extreme lower back pain with pain radiating down my left leg. I could barely sit, stand or walk. Changing positions was intolerable, and getting up in the morning and starting to move was excruciating. I noticed improvement within a week or two of beginning care with Dr. Dan. I also noticed some other changes in my health – my whole lower body is now free of pain, including my hips, knees and feet. It is a remarkable improvement! I have also learned that a healthy spine can make a world of difference in your overall general health. The adjustments are pain free. You just feel a gentle pressure where the doctor is working. Everyone at the office is very friendly and knowledgeable. I feel very comfortable here.
