I have been to probably 10 chiropractors before and this was by far the best experience. The first visit was extremely thorough, he listened to all of my concerns and worked his way from my toes to the top of my head. (I feel like most chiropractors crack my back and neck and send me out the door with little resolve). I noticed an immediate change.

I could stand up tall with little to no pain after one visit and felt like I had a neck for the first time in years. I'm experiencing less brain fog and just so grateful I found someone who was able to truly help and fix my body aches so that I can function in the world without pain! Thank you!

I was having severe knee pain for more than three months. I'm an idiot for not seeing Dr Faas sooner, because I absolutely KNOW how talented he is! My knee pain was GONE in one visit! If you are having any joint issues, go see Dr Faas, he is absolutely the best!

Office staff needs training. I called specifically to ask if they accepted my insurance. She confirmed they do and then she even took my insurance information. After providing the young lady with my information she called back an hour later to get it again for some reason. I was then told to arrive an hour early to my apt. When I arrived, the office staff told me they do not accept my insurance but they've lowered the rates! How convenient, right? Even if I was willing to pay I don't think I would trust the services offered here after such a mishap!

Love, love, love Dr. Lane Myhree. The best EVER!. After having a bad experience years ago with a chiropractor and was so skeptical and afraid to ever see one again. Dr. Lane Myhree put me at ease, helped me through the process and really worked with me. She gives great advice on helping the person live a better life and staying healthy.

I've received care from Dr. Faas and Dr. Myhree and their massasge staff for 10 - 15 years now. Always a great experience. They take their time to help me understand what I'm feeling (usually only go when I'm in pain. ) and what process/procedures they are taking to make me right again. Feel very well cared for at Helping Hands.

I have been going to this Chiropractor for several years and have had a great experience. All of the front staff are very friendly and professional. I usually see Dr. McChesney. She basically performs a miracle on me each time I come in. I have thrown my back and my neck out and she always fixes me up.

I have been going to see Dr. Faas for many years, he is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. He offers a wide range of services and products- and is always willing to educate his patients. If you are looking for a chiropractor, you cannot go wrong by seeing Dr. Faas and his staff.

Dr. Fass and the team at Helping Hands provide a practical, caring, and dynamic range of care as well as recommendations and rehab mentoring. They do not only do the work but also teach you how to take care of your injury, rehab, and maintenance with informed decisions. The front desk staff keep you reminded of appointments and are always a good resource for understanding insurance plans and their limitations/options. Plus you get to meet the lovely Cathy who will brighten any day.

I have seen Dr. Myhree on my daughter's recommendation. I had a pain in my low back and general stiffness. Dr. Myhree took careful notes on my complaints and tested me for range of motion and where my body seemed to "hang up". Then with gentle hands and an activator she worked her magic. I could feel the difference when I left her office. Dr. Myhree made a follow-up call to see how I was doing. Her magic held though the weekend and I made a follow up appointment for the next Monday. Now here's a gentle but very effective way to relieve back pain! Thanks so much!

Dr. Faas is the best chiropractor I have ever seen in 25 years of using chiropractic. He is the best diagnostician I have ever been to. He has several excellent massage therapists on staff who work at his direction. The combination of soft tissue work and chiropractic speeds up the process of healing. I cannot possibly thank him enough for his help.

Dr. Faas and his staff is awesome. When I'm hurting I can tell it's time for an adjustment. He always hits the spot where I'm hurting. He is a great Chiropractor.
Liz Hartwell
Dr Faas is wonderful. Evident that he cares about his patients and is highly knowledgeable in his field. No nonsense, effective, intelligent and experienced. Best chiropractor I've seen, and that is over 25 years of seeing chiropractors. I highly recommend him.

I have been to a lot of Chiropractors and I have Found the BEST ONE IN GAINESVILLE. Dr Fass has been keeping me moving straight for 30 years.. I have lived in Gainesville for 52 years and rode horses for that long .. And anyone that has own a horse knows what that can do to your spine. Im 62 and care for Horses,Goats, Chickens, Dogs, Pigs. I also run a small business called Wizard of ODD Hot Sauce. My hubby is disabled and this is his hobby. And believe me when I say this ... HAVING A GREAT CHIROPRACTOR IS A BLESSING !!!!

"No more back pain! No more neck pain! Thanks to Dr. Laura. Since she has been adjusting me I feel great. She is gentle and her adjustments don't leave me sore. I like Activator that she uses, it is a miracle tool. Dr. Laura is very thorough in her examinations and gets to the root of the pain. I've seen a few chiroprators before but none as gentle and none that help the pain as quickly as she has. I recommend her to everyone." (Used with patient permission)
