I am a big fan of Franson. I was actually I chiropractic skeptic before we started going there but tried it out on the urging of my husband as I had been having serious issues with back pain and two herniated disks since I was in high school and no other treatments my doctors had tried had provided long term relief. I am impressed with Franson on several levels. The first is that I have been able to get back to normal activities with very little back pain. But the most impressive part is their approach. The doctors have worked with me over the years to not only fix the problem, but identify what was causing the problems in the first place. They have worked with me on every aspect of my life to help prevent back pain, not just treat it. Everything from sleeping positions and finding a better pillow, to tactics I can take when driving to avoid back stress, better form when working out, to how I work and eat. They definitely have a whole body approach and no matter how busy they are, they will take the time to answer my questions and offer suggestions. The most surprising thing to me as a patient that was new to this whole mind/body approach was how much more energy I have found with the lifestyle changes they have helped me adopt. I am also now very rarely sick (which is amazing as I work at a college). That was not what I was looking for when I was looking for relief from back pain, but a very useful side effect of their treatment. I would now recommend chiropractic to everyone, not just those with back pain, and trust these docs more than I trust my primary physician. Update: in 2007 this practice changed hands and the service is still the fantastic thorough and thoughtful treatment I have received. They have added new services such as yoga and massage and the new staff are cheerful and fun.

Franson Family Chiropractic is amazing!! We get our adjustments to maintain optimal health, not just for back pain. Weve also made some lifestyle changes from the education theyve given us over the years that have really helped. The best chiropractors and health coaches around! Thanks for taking such wonderful care of our family FFC team! Update: We are a three generation family getting adjusted at IN8 Wellness Center! My parents, my husband and I, and our 2 kiddos all visit weekly. Although, I have to say that being a patient here is far more than chiropractic adjustments. People often associate chiropractic with back injuries. Do not wait for an injury to come and get checked out here. Chances are chiropractic could be the answer to something youre suffering from that has nothing to do with feeling back pain. I fully believe that chiropractic supported my Moms immune system through her breast cancer treatments, helped my Dad recover from major surgery, cured my frequent/chronic sinus infections and headaches, reduced my husbands allergies, enabled me to have two drug free childbirths, and has kept my two babies 95% antibiotic free in almost 7 years. This team truly cares about improving our lives by coaching us to optimal health...weve learned how to move, eat, supplement, and sleep better...all made possible by keeping our spines healthy and our immune systems strong. We are so incredibly grateful for Dr. Ryan, Dr. Kevin, Kendra, Eli and Lauren for making our lives better!

I have been a patient at In8 Chiropractic for almost 10 years. I was the girl who was "always sick" Chronic Migraines, Chronic Sinus infection and strep throat, irregular menstruation... essentially I was a mess. I was fortunate enough to find In8 Wellness back in 2007. I love how education focused they are as well as their focus on the whole person. I also loved that more than any other doctors office I had ever been to, they walked what they talked. Congruency is the name of the game with these wonderful people! It started with me, and now my whole family goes, my Mom, Dad, Husband, son, cousins, Aunts and Uncles! They have fueled a passion of mine for wellness that I never would have imagined. ALSO! Those pesky symptoms that I was dealing with? I went from 3-4 Migraines a month to maybe 1 a year, 4 sinus infections TOTAL since I started almost 10 years ago (and they have left my body faster than ever before), 0 instances of strep throat and my cycle regulated itself (without drugs!)! Needless to say, I am a raving fan! Going to see them will make you feel empowered with your health, you will learn how smart your body is, and the whole staff is WONDERFUL!!!! If you are hesitant, just go see them, they are alarmingly kind and happy! (A really fun outcome of being super healthy people!) You wont regret it, I know that I am the healthiest Ive ever been in body, mind and spirit!

This place is awesome! Initially I resisted going even after their wonderful presentation at a company event (my mind was telling me beware of the witchdoctors and their voodoo), but I eventually showed up one day in June and have been going ever since. That was three years ago. One of the things I really like about this place are the people. There are great assistants who help you find a time that fits your schedule, and theyre cheerful and personable even at 6am, but not overly perky to get on your nerves if you havent had your caffeine yet. Bonus. The doctors are wonderful and are all different, so if one doesnt suit you, try another and youll find the right fit. Ill admit, I was worried when my "primary" doctor moved back to California because he really knew how to adjust my spine, but then I was assigned to another and after a few sessions of figuring me out, were right on track! I used to have incredible lower back pain that would sometimes keep me from getting out of bed and there used to be a constant knot of discomfort between my shoulder-blades. They have done an incredible job relieving me of that pain, and it only comes back when I do something like face plant a wave during a wakeboarding trip. I dont recommend the face plant, but I unreservedly recommend Franson Family Chiropractic!

I cannot recommend the Franson team enough. A few years back I was having severe sciatica down my left leg, not being able to stand or walk around for more than 5 or so minutes at a time. I went through the process of a back specialist, a pain management specialist, physical therapy and three rounds of "relief shots" that 5 months later ultimately got me right back to where I started - severe sciatica down the left leg. Ill admit, there was a brief respit from the pain, and a real recognition of how much pain I was actually in, after the first shot. But it wore off in less than two weeks and next two shots did nothing for the pain. I opted not to have surgery and finally listened to my wife (or "The Better 7/8ths", as I call her) and went with her to see Dr. Stephen Franson and his team. We did the exam, they walked me through the problem and gave me a plan to follow. Then over the course of the next year, they showed me a few things on eating better, sleeping better, moving more and better. This past fall The Better 7/8ths and I went to Italy and she marched my *** all over that country from early morning to early morning. Pain didnt slow me down, only the amazing food, wine, sites and history. Ive learned to manage the problem, not mask the symptoms thanks to the Franson team. Grazie Mille!!!
