Dr. Brad Handeland is a board-certified chiropractor, who graduated from Northwestern Health Sciences University in 2007. He is the owner of Handeland Chiropractic, which is located in Clarkfield, MN. Dr. Brad became interested in chiropractic after he suffered a sports injury to his neck back in high school.
After a series of adjustments, he started seeing amazing results, which lead him down the path of wanting to become a chiropractor himself.
