I would definitely recommend seeing Kevin Hansen if you have any lower back pain, hip pain, buttock pain or outer thigh pain. Those are all the symptoms I had and he determined that my pelvic bones were not aligned. He put them back in place and the difference is amazing! It seemed to be worse for me around my pregnancies because of the hormone that loosens the ligaments. I am so grateful that I don't have pain anymore!

I was referred to him by my OB for pregnancy related headaches and hip pains. He had warm, sweaty hands that were sticky when he put them on my face, and spat when he spoke while talking over me (landed on my face, thank you very much). That was enough to put me off going back. But I also didn't feel like his treatment that visit was especially effective -- ie massage or stretching that wasn't quite hitting the right spot. I ended up at a different physical therapist that seemed more professional and with whom I felt a difference right away.

My wife's obgyn recommended him because she was having a lot of upper back pain. Before going to him, she would usually be in tears by the end of the day because of the pain. After she started seeing him, she's able to be up all day and still not much pain by evening. He's made all the difference between remaining in bed and remaining active during her pregnancy.

Dr. Hansen does seem to know his stuff, but I wouldn't say that he's very professional. When I see him, he talks my ear off and cuts me off when I try to get a word in edgewise. His office smells strange and he speaks very loud too. He diagnosed my problem right away as well so I would suggest going to him if you are or were pregnant. My initial opinion of him is that he's rather arrogant and thinks quite highly of himself.

The short version: Dr. Hansen knows his stuff, works quickly, won't make you wait, is polite and professional, and has a reputation at least in the area of pregnancy-related physiotherapy (and almost certainly does great in every other area). Long version: I'm currently pregnant w/ twins, and had a related side effect of rib pain. The Evergreen midwives recommended Dr. Hansen, and am I glad I took that recommendation! As soon as I told him where I was uncomfortable, he had a guess for the diagnosis, confirmed it in three minutes, and fixed it in another 5 minutes. The problem? A rib became dislocated! Since then, I've had to see Dr. Hansen several times for related problems. He's always made an effort to squeeze me into his busy schedule ASAP, and is always polite, professional, and very quick - no long waits at his clinic! I'm not the only one who recommends him, either - he is the most commonly suggested physiotherapist in the EMOMS (Eastside Mothers of Multiples) forums. He seems to have an especially strong reputation working with pregnant women, including mothers expecting twins or more. I would assume he is very skilled with other areas as well, this is just where I've encountered his name.
