DR. JAY HANDT
CHIROPRACTOR

"The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." - - Thomas A. Edison

"I firmly believe my mission in life is to constantly help others innately create excellence in their health and life. I know that, as a chiropractor, I am fulfilling my mission as I endeavor to positively touch the lives of everybody I come in contact with, helping to secure a healthy, drug free future for generations to come." 

Dr. Jay Handt holds a special place in his heart for the importance of family chiropractic care. We know that the strength of our future is dependent on the health and quality of life of our children. Dr. Handt's wife, Kathi, and their three children, Josh, Ryan and Morgan, all receive regular wellness chiropractic care. His children have been adjusted since birth. Dr. Handt thinks family health is so important that he has established special family care plans to offset the rising costs of modern health care.

A STRONG EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND 

"I know that a chiropractor's education forms the cornerstone of his care. Combined with the inborn healing ability of the body, modern chiropractic is bringing back the personal touch to the health care profession. For this reason, I attended one of the top chiropractic colleges in the nation. I continue my quest to better serve my patients by attending numerous post-graduate seminars, workshops and trainings. I feel that on-going learning is essential to bringing together the mind, body and spirit in the healing process."
