WHY CHIROPRACTIC? 

As a child, Dr. Cox suffered with debilitating headaches. By chance, he was tagging along with his father who was seeing his chiropractor one day. His father explained to the doctor that his son had been suffering from headaches for some time. The chiropractor offered to examine young Danny and began treating him. After several weeks, his headaches were gone. At that point, 8 year old Daniel Cox decided to become a chiropractor.

Dr. Cox is a 1989 graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. As noted above, his pivotal personal experience as a chiropractic patient led to his passion for health and his commitment to helping others achieve their full health potential in a natural manner. 

Dr. Cox has over 30 years of clinical experience and was named Chiropractor of the Year by a group of esteemed colleagues. He has extensive post graduate training in Whiplash Traumatology. He is a Certified Accident Reconstructionist who received his training from Northwestern University Center for Public Safety. Dr. Cox has also participated as a Research Assistant in over 100 crash tests. He is a member of the Spine Research Institute of San Diego and has lectured extensively on the subject of Accident Reconstruction as well as Bodily Injury Assessment and Treatment Protocols. Other specialties include Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA) and managing spinal and soft tissue injuries caused by motor vehicle crashes and sports injuries.

Today he specializes in delivering chiropractic care through a hands-on approach consisting of manual spinal adjustments and soft tissue manipulation techniques.

WHY CHIROPRACTIC?

"I was always fascinated with the human body. Even as a child I remember reading a book titled 'The Family Medical Guide'. In the sixth grade, when all of my classmates were ordering books about sports or entertainment, I ordered a book titled, 'The Heart Explorers' which was a brief history of the circulatory system. It detailed the anatomy and function of the heart, the very first heart surgery performed and the subsequent development of heart transplant procedures, something on the very cutting edge of medical technology at the time the book was printed."  

"My introduction to chiropractic came following a waterskiing accident in which I had injured my neck, which ultimately deteriorated into chronic pain and stiffness. My brother, who was in his second year of chiropractic college, called his chiropractor on a Sunday. I was seen that day, x-rayed and given my first chiropractic adjustment. The results were simply amazing, which led me on the path toward becoming a chiropractor." 

"My 31-year career in this profession, helping those individuals afflicted with pain and other functional problems to regain their lives back, has been extremely gratifying. Never in my career  have I grumbled about getting up and going to work. Working with patients is a 2-way street. Both doctor and patient benefit from the experience."

WHY WESTERN NEW YORK?

"I was searching for a better place to raise my family. I had visited with Dr. Cox many times and enjoyed my stays here in Buffalo. I love the people of Western New York. They remind me of the Midwest, in terms of work ethic and genuine friendliness. New York State also has a beautiful geographic presence, with much to explore."

WHY CHIROPRACTIC?

"I've always been fascinated by the human body, particularly how everything travels through the spine. Chiropractic is a wonderful way to help people live their best lives, in a non-invasive and holistic way. I love being a part of a patient centered office that focuses on doing what we can to help people function at their highest level."

WHY WESTERN NEW YORK?

When he is not in the office treating patients, Dr. D'Anna enjoys spending time with his wife Elizabeth and three children (along with four cats and two dogs).

WHY CHIROPRACTIC? 

Dr. D'Anna was working long hours at a fast food restaurant and within a few months he started to notice pain in his left knee.  He mentioned the knee pain to his mom and she recommended he see a chiropractor.  Being a teenager at the time, he initially ignored her advice, but when the pain persisted and worsened he finally decided to see the chiropractor.  He received spinal adjustments from the chiropractor and although the chiropractor did not touch his knee, Dr. D'Anna was shocked when his knee pain went away.  The following semester he changed his major to chiropractic.

WHY WESTERN NEW YORK? 

Dr. D'Anna was born and raised in Niagara Falls.  After meeting his wife in Washington and spending several years there, they both decided it was time to return to the area, as they both felt it was a great place to raise a family.
