Dr. Janna Hansen is a chiropractor with a perinatal specialty and has been helping families get healthier for the past 10 years. From a holistic perspective, she combines chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue work to ensure the body is balanced optimally. Balanced body = Balanced baby = Better birth.
She routinely sees women for wellness care throughout pregnancy and postpartum as well as those with breech, transverse or posterior presentations. Women seek care for back pain, headache, carpal tunnel syndrome, pelvic floor imbalance, pubic symphysis pain, scoliosis, sciatica, and any problem relating to posture and stress. She uses craniosacral technique and gentle adjusting for infants and children with latch issues, palate imbalances, autism, ADD/ADHD, sleep problems, digestive issues, colic, and ear infections.
She has advanced training in pediatric chiropractic, perinatal chiropractic, bodywork, and is a Certified Pre- & Post-Natal Coach. She completed a 10-month apprenticeship with a midwifery practice and has taught at the graduate level: public health, research, chiropractic techniques, and various nutrition and wellness courses. She received her BA in Philosophy from UC Berkeley and Doctorate of Chiropractic at Life Chiropractic College West graduating valedictorian. It is her honor to assist families to have safe and satisfying births–and provide continuity of care for families throughout this powerfully transformative period.
