Maintaining a healthy weight is a challenging and common problem in today’s world. From 1999 –2000 through 2017 –2018, US obesity prevalence increased from 30.5% to 42.4%. Obesity-related illnesses are also the leading cause of preventable, premature death.
We are dedicated to helping our local community in Phoenix battle the challenges of a balanced healthy weight so you can avoid preventable illnesses as well as look and feel better than ever.
Weight Balance
We’ll work with you on weight goals and finding the best path to get you to a healthy, balanced weight.
Custom Plan
Everyone’s body is different. We work with you on a custom weight plan that helps you hit a healthy balance.
Holistic Approach
Achieve better health and a balanced weight without invasive surgery or unnecessary medications.
There are 3 primary factors that determine your ability to lose weight and maintain it at a healthy level.
Proper Nutrition:
One critical part of losing weight is the food that you put into your body.
And, here’s another important part of nutrition:
Everybody’s body is different. Some people can eat dairy and feel fine. Some people are allergic to gluten and have adverse reactions even if food is cross-contaminated. Some people have a body type that prefers higher carbs than other people. Nutrition should be individualized to you and your body. Our team of experts gets to know you, your conditions, your health, your food preferences, and more to develop the perfect plan for YOU to help you lose weight, feel better, and regain some confidence.
Physical and Emotional Health:
What conditions (both physical and mental) are you experiencing in your life? Are you extremely stressed? Do you have a food addiction or any other addictions? How do you treat your body? These factors will influence how you can healthily lose weight.
Exercise:
Exercise is another very important aspect to losing weight (physical activity also an important aspect of living a long and healthy life). But, not all exercise is created equal. Nor should every person do the same type of exercise. A 65-year-old man who is severely overweight should not be doing the same exercises as a 23-year-old girl who is only moderately overweight.
Our team of medical experts evaluates your current situation and puts you on a plan to health, weight loss, and longevity.
Benefits to Losing Weight
More energy – less likely to experience energy spikes and crashes
Less joint pain
Feel more confident in yourself
Usually, internal health benefits are apparent, things like:
Cholesterol improves
Risk for heart disease goes down
Risk for diabetes goes down
Lower blood pressure
Improved blood sugar level
And more

I started seeing Dr. Hatlen over 3 years ago and he's one of the best! His care and compassion are truly authentic but his knowledge of how the body integrates everything from a "wholistic" view stands out among his peers. I was able to heal faster because of his multi-approach protocol and feel better at every visit.
Dr. Hatlen is very knowledgeable and his treatments are effective for any pain or discomfort I may be having, and for general maintenance to keep me pain free.
The best chiropractor I’ve ever been to.<br>Don’t put it off any longer, schedule an appointment soon. It’s really about the quality of life. If you have any neck or back pain / discomfort in your neck or spine, please schedule a visit.<br>I’ve had multiple head injuries and several broken bones over the years. I also broke my nose & cracked my skull. After I got out of hospital, I was having foggy vision with migraine-headaches.<br>It took about six to nine weeks of adjustments/ recovery therapy.<br>Now, I have a greater quality of life with zero pain.<br>Please Schedule your family a visit.<br>Thanks again Dr. Hatlen !
I have been a patient of Dr Hatlen for almost 12 years. I continue to be active and pain free. He is a great chiropractor and a good person with a wonderful sense of humor.<br>He has always been extremely helpful in explaining and caring for me. I would highly recommend Dr Hatlen.
Dr. Hatlen is helping to stabilize my low back after a flair up. I like his new decompression table which he can adjust my pelvis area also & not have to move to another table.
Dr. Hatlen is a fabulous doctor and takes time with each patient. He is always expanding his knowledge on how to help his practice benefit his patients. I highly recommend Hatlen Family Chiropractic.
I had surgery and today Dr Hatlen layered my arm which is a 10 inch incision, felt amazing and Promotes Healing, Always Leading the industry of technology and always amazing service
For years I was told by my doctors that I could never go to a chiropractor. Well, I chose Dr Hatlen because he does zone therapy. My degenerate disc disease has stopped progressing and my mobility has improved already. I just wish I would have gone sooner. The good news is that I will not need surgery because of the therapy. If I would have listened to my doctors, I would have needed surgery and be in pain for the rest of my life. Thank you!!
Dr. Hatlen has been treating me for almost 4 years now. Back/Neck pain. Growing up as a gymnast. Very knowledgeable and caring. I have gotten so much relief with treatments and education about pain management. A new pillow was just the latest success story from his office. A visit to Dr. Hatlens office i always a highlight of my day. Grateful to have landed in his office.👍
I enter the office with a shuffle and leave walking normal. Through my treatment I have significant pain reduction and definitely more mobility. Dr Hatlen continues to study and invest in his practice which benefits his patience. I really appreciate Dr. Hatlen.
My first treatment with Dr. Hatlan was very positive and helpful. He took the time to explain my issues, how they are affecting me and what can be done to improve them. He did a laser treatment first and I can already feel a difference. Will definitley keep going to him.
Dr Hatlen has been an absolute life changer when it comes to addressing my lower back issues. I like the fact that he incorporates videos to show you what your issues are and how he's going to address them I couldn't have picked a better chiropractor to go to. If you're in need of a reputable and experience chiropractor then without a doubt go see Dr Hatlen.
I had my first full treatment with Dr. Hatley yesterday and this morning I noticed my neck did not have pain when I sat down to read my devotional. What a gift. I'm excited to move forward on my healing journey.
Dr. Hatlen is excellent, he always helps me. I feel much better after the adjustment. I have confidence in his abilities and I look forward to my weekly adjustments.
Dr Hatlen is very skilled with a holistic approach to therapy and has a number of tools in his toolbox. I have become more flexible in body and mind and eliminated areas of pain with Dr Hatlen’s assistance.
I’ve been having back problems for a while. I have been looking for a new chiropractor Dr. Hatlen diagnosed and started treatment right away. I could feel more energy during the treatment and feel a lot better. I highly recommend Dr. Hatlen.
In the past, chiropractors beat the daylights out of me, taking 45 min to an hour for an appointment. I would often leave feeling worse than when I came in. One even made it a point to push his elbow into my spine to the point where I would moan about the pain.<br><br>I was surprised at Dr. Hatlen's approach. No 45 min to an hour MMA beatdown-- just a few minutes of firm massage and a few minutes of a rapid pulsing vibrator up and down my spine. In 10 minutes, the appointment was over. I wondered how such a short time could do me any good.<br><br>But that night I slept better than I had in months. I have had five sessions now and the after-session pain is less and lasts a lot shorter than when we started.<br><br>I don't know how Dr. Hatlen's approach is so much better, but I am glad it is. I look forward to a life of reduced pain! (I have gone through 20 months of physical therapy following a hip replacement and stenosis of my spine. Dr. Hatlen has done more to reduce my pain in 3 weeks than the PT service did in 20 months.)
Terrific adjustment, as always! Always friendly and I have been visiting Gary for ten plus years and was sold after the first treatment. Highly recommended!
A detailed and ultimate professional - friendly and organized. Lets you know what he is doing and why he is doing it. It is wonderful to finally be pain-free. Highly recommend.
Excellent Chiropractor. Very professional and knows his field extremely well.<br>He helped me with my sciatic nerve pain better than any other health care provider would’ve.<br>Thank you, Dr Hatlen!
Dr Hatlen focus on treating the spine by using his hands to examine snd treat health conditions related to the bone, muscles and joints ( musculoskeletal problems) based on the link between the alignment of the spine and the function of the body , clinic place is professional and self checked in also app guide for scheduling suitable your convenience schedule
I have been going to chiropractors since I am 14 years old, and am now 81. I could not live my life without Chiropractic care.<br>I have been to many using different modalities--Dr. Hatlen is the best because of his understanding of neurological system.
We have been going to Dr. Hatlen for nearly 2 years. He has treated my wife, me and my boys. We really appreciate his deep expertise and approach. I would highly recommend him.
I cannot express enough gratitude for the life-changing care I’ve received from Dr. Hatlen. Before my first visit, I had spent years battling debilitating pain and inflammation, with no real answers despite investing over $10,000 in treatments. My symptoms were overwhelming—extreme trigeminal nerve pain, neck and back issues, arm and leg pain, overactive bladder disorder, and recurrent digestive episodes so severe that I found myself in the ER multiple times. My high blood pressure led to a diagnosis of an overactive parasympathetic nervous system, and I had reached the point where I felt completely hopeless.<br><br>Walking into Dr. Hatlen’s clinic for the first time, I could barely use my right arm. I struggled to open the door, and it hit me right in the face—a painful reminder of how much I had lost. But that day marked the beginning of a remarkable turnaround. After just one visit, I walked out with renewed strength, slept peacefully for the first time in months, and—most importantly—rediscovered my will to live.<br><br>Over the past two years, Dr. Hatlen’s expertise, compassionate care, and innovative treatments have transformed my health. The cold laser therapy has significantly improved my spinal degeneration, and my facial pain has all but vanished. I haven’t experienced a single digestive episode since beginning treatment, a relief beyond words. While I still have occasional pain, I now have the tools to manage it effectively with weekly visits.<br><br>Thanks to Dr. Hatlen, I no longer live in fear—I truly believe I will live a full life and pass away from natural causes rather than from the overwhelming pain and hopelessness I once endured. He consistently offers helpful suggestions, listens with kindness, and genuinely cares about his patients. I can confidently say that his expertise and dedication have given me my happiness back, and I’ll be forever grateful!
Dr Hatlen has helped me with two nerve issues in my neck and lower back area. His therapy and knowledge of the nervous system is apparent as we’ve had success in relieving the pain in both instances.
I am a 78 year old male who has had many back and neck problems for most of my life. We each made a commitment to one another and my back now is flexible and the constant pain like the hump is practically gone. Getting out of a chair is easy and pain free. What more can one say. Even driving is so much more comfortable. This is not the old fashion bone cracking experience that many of us endured over the years.
Dr. Hamlin is very solid in his analysis using x-rays to describe the spinal issues. I went to see him about hip pain and it turns out my spine is out of wack which is clear from the x- rays.
After the Laser treatment, the pain in my neck vanished. I always feel better after treatments from Dr. Hatlen. And my soul is also satisfied by laughter, after watching the funniest animal videos!
