Dr. Marnie A. Hansen, DC
Dr. Marnie's mission is to guide individuals on a path toward optimum health through chiropractic, lifestyle and wellness education. She is passionate about making meaningful and lasting connections in the community, shifting and expanding paradigms and creating a positive healing environment in which patients may become empowered to take charge of their health.
As a child, Dr. Hansen began her lifelong health education as a competitive athlete, excelling in gymnastics, basketball, track, and volleyball. She began competing as a snowboarder in her late teens and by her early 20's she was learning about the body in an entirely different field- acting, where she learned postural, breathing and other body awareness techniques to help her with theatre and film performance, as well as life in general.
After years of athletic and theatre performance, Dr. Marnie switched her focus to the healing arts and began her Chiropractic training at Western States Chiropractic College in Portland, OR, where she completed her Bachelor of Science and her Doctor of Chiropractic degrees. She sees the body as a dynamic instrument that if well tuned, and tuned into wellness, will play well for life. She believes that regular Chiropractic care, along with a happy and healthy lifestyle, is the best way to give the body the optimum vitality that it was born to have!
Testimonials
"Alliance rocks! My right arm was going numb and waking me at night. I freaked out because I am very active. I went to see Dr. Vivian - she did a complete exam to make sure chiropractic would help me. She explained that I had an injury within the last 5 years and that I had a number of misalignments in my neck and spine. Within a week of my first adjustment, I wasn't waking up with a numb arm anymore (which I thought was nothing short of a miracle!). Now, we're "training" my neck and back to normal again. Her entire staff always makes be feel comfortable, happy and healing."
