Additionally, many medications have unpleasant side effects. According to the National Institute on Aging, approximately 85% of older adults have at least one chronic health condition and 60% have at least two chronic conditions. Chiropractic care is a way to find relief while reducing or eliminating the need for medication. 

Dr. Hansen provides expert, compassionate chiropractic care for elderly patients in Spearfish to help them live better, healthier and more independent lives. We accept Medicare Part B and will coordinate your benefits to ensure you receive the care you need.
