Introducing Millville Chiropractor Dr. Martin Hahn
"I was fortunate as a child to have a neighbor who was a chiropractor and, on many occasions, helped my mother with many health issues. She always felt comfortable and safe at the chiropractor's office and this positive feeling of chiropractic had an effect on me throughout my young adult years. When I was trying to decide which career path to pursue, the idea of chiropractic surfaced and I realized that, yes, this was an ideal match for me. Chiropractic was something I could see myself doing and enjoying, and, even better, I could offer a wonderful service to the world! And so my journey began when I was accepted to Life University Chiropractic College in Marietta, GA.
Dr. Hahn began his pre-chiropractic education at Camden County Community College where he studied the standard curriculum for a two year college. During his four years at Life University, courses included a major emphasis on human anatomy and physiology, human dissection, neurology, biochemistry, x-ray, diagnosis, pathology, chiropractic adjusting techniques, and patient care. After graduating in 2000, Dr. Hahn returned to New Jersey and worked for seven years as an associate doctor prior to establishing his own practice.
"Neurology was definitely the most challenging of these courses as we all know that the human brain is the unknown phenomenon that even our finest scientists are continually studying and striving to understand."
"The philosophy of our office is one that has stood the test of time since the existence of the chiropractic profession: wellness through maintenance! Chiropractors have preached this concept for over a century but it wasn't until the 21st century that people are realizing that our 20th century methods of healthcare are a thing of the past and no longer are they a viable model of education in our society. The educated individual is now taking charge of his or her health through proper diet and exercise. Understanding what makes one healthy is no longer foreign to the lay person. With the advent of the internet, people are more educated than ever and up to date on the medical lingo and conditions plaguing the human body on a day to day basis. With this in mind, the chiropractic philosophy is the education of the human spine and the most effective way to maintain and prevent its decay. The answer to this problem is creating a wellness concept through chiropractic adjustments."
"Key values and rules in our office are to permit every patient to control their destination with their care. We will provide as much education and as many recommendations as possible, but each individual being treated in our facility must determine his/her own path and level of health goals that they wish to achieve in life.
"Patients that respond the best in our practice are the ones who have tried every method of care prior to coming in our office. They have tried two to three rounds of physical therapy, taken pain medications, tried epidural injections, and attempted nerve blocks in a pain management office. Unfortunately, all of these methods failed. These are the people who devote their full attention to the healthcare of the future."
"The most moving, soul satisfying, and deeply fulfilling aspects of practice are succeeding with the individuals who are the worst of the worst. Their last resort after attempting all other forms of care would be a surgical procedure. Thanks to discovering chiropractic, they realize that there is an alternative to unnecessary surgery. Their genuine, heartfelt appreciation as they begin to reap the benefits of care is the true fulfillment of practicing in this great profession."
Dr. Hahn is married to Shari-Ann and they have three beautiful children that highlight their lives together. Family outings often include trips to the beach, zoo, parks, and movies.
In his personal time away from the office, Dr. Hahn enjoys going to a ball game, traveling, and learning the secrets to a good vegetable garden. Time always seems to pass too quickly when he’s out on the lake trying to catch that big bass or out back on a cool night sitting by the camp fire.
Dr. Hahn has received chiropractic care on a regular basis since 1995. He routinely schedules his maintenance visit once or twice per month. Dr. Hahn’s family is all under chiropractic care as well; his children all received their first adjustment within minutes after birth as it’s well known that a severe amount of stress is placed on the spine during the birthing process.
"My children respond wonderfully to a number of common ailments after an adjustment. Most notably, their ear infections resolve within a maximum of two or three treatments. Our antibiotic is the chiropractic adjustment."
Exercise and diet is an essential part of life in the Hahn household. Dr. Hahn trains through core stability on the gymnic ball. He and his family generally eat a healthy diet consisting of whole grains, vegetables and fruits, and lean proteins. They occasionally enjoy a quality bar of chocolate, or invite friends over for one of Dr. Hahn's "famous" burgers on the grill!
The Hahn household rarely ingests pharmaceutically manufactured products.
"We believe that, when properly taken care of through nutrition and exercise, our bodies are capable of self healing. Instead of reaching for the medicine cabinet when the common cold strikes, we schedule in extra chiropractic adjustments, drink more fluids, and get plenty of rest! We have noticed fewer colds, and illness in general, compared to the general population. Visits to our medical doctor are few and far between. There is a time and place for the medical model of care and, when properly taking care of our bodies, the 'time and place' is greatly minimized."
"I consider myself an excellent listener and hope I get the opportunity to meet you in person and discuss your specific health challenge. Give our office a call or email me with the link below."
