About Us

---

Dr. Lance Kangas is a board-certified chiropractor and a graduate of Northwestern Health Sciences University. Dr. Kangas was raised in Chassell, MI, and is beyond excited to settle his roots back in the copper country. His interest in chiropractic started with high school sports injuries and his quick response to the unique treatment. As he entered chiropractic school in 2019 his one concern was being limited to specific areas of the body, but as he started the program he quickly found the full scope of practice chiropractors offered. He found a great passion for complete body care, utilizing the triad of health: Physical, Chemical, and Mental. He took part in extracurricular courses, mentor programs, and seminars to increase the depth of his knowledge in full body care. With more health care providers, but yet an increase in confusion of health due to almost all chronic conditions on the rise we wanted to bring a new perspective to health care. A perspective that makes sense, one that follows the bodies physiology, and one that reduces opinion.  Here at Thrive we utilize the triad of health through adjustments, muscle testing, and soft tissue work for the physical aspect while using nutrition and custom labs to follow the biomarkers of the body for the chemical and mental aspects. 

Dr. Kangas is very passionate about continuously learning and teaching about health, in his free time he enjoys to read, keep up on research, learn more techniques, hunt, fish, play hockey, and enjoy time with his wife, family, and friends.
