Dr. Hagan Asks some important questions of interest to Hayward residents - Chiropractor Hayward Dr. Hagan Asks...

Do chiropractors prescribe medications for the pain?
No. Chiropractic is a drug-free approach to better health. Instead, we rely on natural methods. We can show you how to use ice to control pain. When properly applied, ice can have an analgesic effect without the unwanted and sometimes dangerous effects of pain medications.
Why are some people allergic to pollen and others aren't?
It's not the pollen. Chiropractors know that if it were, everyone would be allergic to pollen, nuts and pet dander. But that's not the case. It's the person, not the pollen! If you live in Hayward and your stress levels are high, then each year the grass, the trees or the weeds put your nervous system over the top. Many report that chiropractic care helps reduce the frequency and severity of their allergic response.

Introducing Hayward Chiropractor Dr. Kent Hagan

Dr. Kent HaganI just wish I had known then what I know now.

During my senior year in high school basketball I suffered an ankle and foot injury that took me out of the game. I went to an orthopedist who took X-rays, told me it wasn’t broken and to ice it and take some drugs for the pain. And "come back in four weeks."

I wanted to play ball! So, I paid a visit to Dr. Leroy Perry, a chiropractor, who adjusted my foot, did a little therapy and I was back on the court in five days. That’s when I decided I wanted to be a chiropractor!

On the recommendation of Dr. Perry, I enrolled in Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. It was rather surprised when I learned that I was taking more hours to graduate than a medical doctor.

Chiropractic philosophy was my favorite class. While I knew that we are self-healing and self-regulating and that being healthy was normal, I didn’t give it much thought. Learning the scientific basis of chiropractic was a major milestone. Immediately my career decision was affirmed.

Seeing improvements in the quality of our Hayward-area patients lives is one of the best things about being in practice. I think everyone should have chiropractic care to maintain the health of the nervous system that controls every muscle, cell, organ and system of the body. Even if they don’t (yet) have an ache or a pain.

Maurine HaganI have been married to Maurine for 22 years. I met her at a disco (remember those?) my senior year in high school. We have three children, Raquel age 18 at UC Davis. Riley at Monta Vista High School and Ryder age three. And don’t forget Desilu the wonder dog. We live in Danville and when I’m not in the practice, I enjoy golf (about a 9 handicap) and love traveling to see new places. Naturally, I follow all the local sports teams.

I am checked and adjusted weekly. My kids have been getting adjusted since they came home from the hospital. My kids play basketball, golf, water polo, and are on swim teams. My wife and I try to exercise 3-4 times per week. No drugs of any kind are allowed in our house. No vaccinations. No antibiotics. No pain pills to fool the body by masking symptoms. We also take nutritional supplements to make sure we have the raw materials for health and healing.

But that’s more than enough about me! How can we help you with today’s safe and natural chiropractic care? Give us a call so we can learn about you and support you as you step towards better health, naturally.
