Introducing Manchester Chiropractor, Dr. David Van Hoewyk

Manchester, CT chiropractor, Dr. David Van Hoewyk

"Never in my wildest imagination could I see myself sitting in the examination room of a chiropractor.  After eighteen months since my baseball injury, I could no longer raise my right arm.  The pain was constant and getting worse month by month.  I thought I had done all the right things. I tried rest, medication, therapy and was now approaching surgery.  At twenty-five I thought my days of playing sports were over.  My new girlfriend suggested that I see her doctor.  In fact she made an appointment for me to see a well known chiropractor, Dr. Herbert Anderson, in Medford, Massachusetts.  Believe me, I was more than nervous and apprehensive.  But, this doctor was different.  He listened!  Even his exam was different.  He explained what he found on my exam and how he felt he could help me that very day.  I was ready for his help.  I expected a 'bang or a crunch'.  I expected his treatment to hurt.  Neither happened.  Absolutely amazed, I raised my arm up, forward and backward for the first time in over a year.  In three weeks I was playing tennis and pain free.

This is how my chiropractic journey began. I thought my experience was a miracle.  I soon learned from others about their positive experiences from chiropractic care.  I knew that I experienced an extraordinary exam, performed by an extraordinary doctor, who provided extraordinary care.  I quickly became a big chiropractic advocate.  Chiropractic care or 'adjustments' became my first line of defense against injuries and part of my lifestyle.

My growing belief in chiropractic led to a life changing decision.  After seven years as a teacher, I enrolled at Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis.  I believed so strongly that if chiropractic could change my life, then this was the way that I wanted to serve others.

I believe in the life sustaining benefits of chiropractic care.  Since 1980 I have treated thousands of people in our community and have witnessed improved health and wellness through natural health.  I still receive chiropractic adjustments regularly to maintain my health.  Wellness is a process and not an event.  Matter of fact when I think of chiropractors, I think of wellness doctors first.

Wellness allows me to think and act young.  Aging is natural, decay is not.  As part of the 'baby boomer' generation I still do everything and even more than when I was 25.  I exercise daily and continue to enjoy skiing, kayaking, tennis, biking  and sailing.  Oh yes, maybe not at the same intensity, but I'm out there everyday and plan to do so into my 80's and 90's.

My initial visit to a chiropractor was truly a life changing event.  It brought me to the most exciting career one could ever imagine.  The young gal, Sue, that brought me to Dr. Anderson's office -- well, I married her.  Sue and I have three grown children: Doug, Karen and Andrew.  All of our children have had chiropractic adjustments since they were infants and today they lead healthy and vibrant lives.

How about you?  Do you believe you are too old, helpless and tried everything else under the sun?  Been there and so have countless others that we help daily.  My pledge -- I'm always here to listen and committed to extraordinary care.  Give our office a call, or email me using the link below and let's arrange a time to explore your options."

Dr. David Asks some important questions of interest to Manchester residents - Chiropractor Manchester Dr. David Asks...

Are aches and pains good or bad?
While aches or pains may be unpleasant, they're merely warning signs. As a Manchester chiropractor, I see this all the time. The pain is not the problem! It just means a limitation has been reached and something needs to change. That's when we get to work correcting the underlying cause.
Can a chiropractor heal?
There's never been a case in which a doctor (chiropractor or otherwise) has formed scar tissue, mended a broken bone or cured a headache. Only you can do that. Turns out you're the doctor! All I do is help remove interferences to your body's healing ability. Ready to get started? Call our office today.
