I highly recommend Andresen Active Healthcare to everyone! Due to multiple injuries from 3 separate accidents, I have been to many different Chiropractors through the years and Dr. Andresen is definitely one of the best there is.  I know how important it is to find a good Chiropractor because I have been to bad ones before.  From those horrible experiences, I have learned that a good Chiropractor: takes x-rays when needed; explains why he is doing things; encourages you to ask questions and takes the time to answer them; performs re-assessments at each appointment and adapts his treatments accordingly; and teaches you ways to increase your healing ability in between appointments. Dr. Andresen does all of these things and much more. The therapy Dr. Andresen provides has greatly decreased my suffering and continues to help me to avoid surgery on my back and neck. The customized foot orthotics he prescribed have given me the ability to continue walking. He was willing to treat me while wearing medical gloves in order to advance the healing of my shingles. He has decreased the pain and swelling of my wrists and ankles. He adjusted my shoulder so that I can use my left arm again. Additionally, he has stopped some of my migraines while in progress. Therefore, I highly recommend Dr. Andresen to anyone in need of Chiropractic Therapy. Respectfully, Elaine J.

I first went to see Dr. Andresen in July 2014 for some issues I was having after I had given birth to my daughter in April that year. I suffer from constant neck and back pain. Along with numerous other things, but who has time to read a novel! During my first visit I asked Dr Andresen if he knew anything about Torticollis. As my daughter was born with a "tilted neck" she had been going to physical therapy since she was a week old, and after 3 months, with very little progress my hopes were fading that shed ever be able to hold her neck up straight. When he informed me about his child and pregnant mothers experience i made an appointment for my daughter that day. To be honest I was a tad scared and couldnt watch as he adjusted her neck. She cried for maybe 15-20 seconds and was back to her normal smiling self. The very next day I woke up and had to do a double take, my daughter was holding her head up straight!!!!!! Thanks to a wonderful and amazing Dr. Andresen and his staff, my beautiful daughter holds her head up high and straight!!! She continues to get adjusted once a month. My issues are also less painful and Im able to accomplish more of my everyday tasks pain free!

I am very thankful to Dr. Andresen and his staff for all they have done for my husband and I. I have always lived an active life style with running, biking, hiking and skiing so when one day I rolled out of bed barely able to move with extreme back pain, I was not sure where to turn. I prefer to care for my body without medications. My friend suggested Dr. Andresan and I was nervous about chiropractic care but it turned out to be a great choice and an investment in maintaining my health. After the first treatment I felt a noted decrease in symptoms and was shortly back to my usual activities. So when my husband began to complain of neck and chest pain that was aggravated by his work, I said Dr. Andresan could help him. He was not easy to convince! A year later and after seeing several other physicians without improvement, he decided to give it a try. As with my experience, his improvement has been remarkable. His pain level is greatly reduced allowing him a restful sleep without sleep aides and he has renewed energy and optimism. I highly recommend Dr. Andresan. He and his staff are very caring and able to accommodate busy schedules with early and late hours.

I have been a patient of Dr Andresen for only a few short months, but my physical well being, as well has mental well being has dramatically improved. My headaches have disappeared, and the pain in my shoulder that I have endured for years (figuring it was something I was just going to have to live with) is nearly corrected! Dr Andresen is incredibly knowledgeable and gentle, and explains the benefits of chiropractic care as well as what he is going to do, how he is going to do it, and how it will benefit your health. I am a strong believer in natural healing and have realized the health benefits of chiropractic adjustments at Andresen Active Healthcare!" Most recently I have been scheduling a one hour massage (with Lora) before my adjustment. The massages I have been getting here have far outweighed any I have ever had and I feel it enhances the adjustments I receive at my appointment with Dr. Andresen immediately following...quite possibly because I am so incredibly relaxed!

You know how it is. Billy Chiddester was an ancient man in 1967. He walked with the aid of a cane—couldn’t stand upright, but at a 90 degree angle. He didn’t have the options in his day I have. My lower back pain was forcing me to start that forward angle Billy had and I believed if I didn’t do something about it I’d end out like him—staring at the tops of people’s shoes the rest of my life. I seriously considered stealing a shopping cart from Jewel at one point. An ortho surgeon flashed a scalpel in front of me and gave me the demonic smile of a stock yard employee. I managed to stand straight long enough to say, “No thanks.” Then I found Andresen Active Healthcare. I scheduled an appointment and now, a few short weeks later, I’m upright again and pain free. Now I can concentrate on other things like fondly remembering Billy Chiddester—an old salt who sailed tall ships near the end of their era and was a marvelous man and story teller. Thanks Craig and staff!

I met Dr. Andresen in 2008 after a seeing a neurosurgeon that recommended me to his office. I had been in a car accident and was in a lot of pain for over a year. I had a torn rotator cuff and bad whiplash and could barley move my neck. I ended up with severe migraine headaches that would last for weeks at a time and would disable me. It took some time, but Dr. Andresen got me out of pain and for the most part I have not had a migraine since. I am a dental hygienist and spend hours in ergonomically incorrect poses for 8-9 hours a day. I now see Dr. Andressen 1-2 times per month and he keeps me comfortable to continue to do the work that I love without the discomfort many in my field experience. I can truly say Dr. Andresen has the best "touch" of any chiropractor that I have ever seen! He is an amazing doctor and has a great staff as well. I would highly recommend his office to anyone looking for a highly competent chiropractor!

I have experienced tension headaches and migraines for about the past 10 years of my life. I have been to many doctor visits and even prescribed medication for my symptoms. When I first started seeing Dr. Andresen I did not believe chiropractic adjustments would help with these symptoms, until I noticed the pain and discomfort slowly exiting my body. I now only use aspirin every now and again and very rarely experience discomfort due to tension or migraines! I was a huge believer that I would have to deal with this problem for the extent of my life which makes me so glad I chose to visit Andresen Active Healthcare!! The atmosphere of the clinic is amazing as well, and the doctor seemed very knowledgeable. I thank Dr. Andresen for his service just about every time I visit the clinic. If you plan to get chiropractic advice, this would be the place to go!
