About Our Staff

Dr. Dan grew up in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, Florence to be exact. He received his bachelor’s degree from UW – Steven’s Point in 2002 and his doctorate from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, IA in 2005. He earned his Nutritional Counseling Certification in 2007.

After sustaining an injury while wrestling in college, he took the advice of a teammate and saw a chiropractor for his first time. He was surprised by how quickly he recovered and amazed by how much better he felt than he did before his injury. This experience was so impactful to him that he changed his career choice from math teacher and wrestling coach to chiropractor. 

Dr. Dan has been serving the Wausau area since 2005. 



He adjusts patients primarily with his hands, utilizing the Palmer Package technique. Other therapies he may utilize include Diversified, Gonstead, Thompson, Activator Technique, Trigger Point, and Kinesio Taping.

Outside of the clinic, Dr. Dan enjoys spending time with his wife and two children doing various outdoor activities, improving his golf game, coaching little league baseball, and working out.

Sally Baxter is a Licensed Massage Therapist who has been practicing since 2004. She earned her degree from the Florida College of Natural Health.
