Dr. Peter Ladd Is A Chiropractor With A Vision Of Optimal Health

Dr. Peter Ladd is a chiropractor and owner of Premier Health West Saint Paul, Minnesota since 2005. He grew up on a dairy farm in Palisade, Minnesota where he attended Itasca Community College, earning some credits while still in high school. In 1996, he received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Biology from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, Minnesota. Dr. Ladd holds a Doctorate of Chiropractic.

His own education continues in the form of frequent professional classes and seminars, and a close working relationship with other health care professionals in the area. Dr. Ladd was formerly an associate with Brainerd Chiropractic and has practiced with Associated Chiropractic Physicians in Duluth, Minnesota.

Dr. Ladd believes that chiropractic is part of a holistic approach to medicine that is appropriate for people of all ages in a wide range of health conditions. Though patients are often referred to him by other health care professionals, he also serves as the primary care physician for many of his patients. His commitment to chiropractic medicine is a product of his own experience with an effective, drug-free course of treatment that produces immediate and lasting results for a variety of conditions including:

1. Neck pain
2. Back pain
3. Athletic injuries
4. Carpal tunnel syndrome
5. Foot problems
6. Migraines
7. Auto injuries
8. Headaches
9. Extremity pain
10. Rotator cuff and knee injuries

Because pain is often a symptom of minor problems that go unresolved over a period of time, Dr. Ladd incorporates an ongoing process of education into his treatment plan. His office is also equipped to incorporate physical therapy and acupuncture into his treatment plan. Dr. Ladd is one of the few doctors in the area licensed to practice acupuncture as a method of pain relief.

Dr. Ladd is an expert lecturer on health care and injury prevention for industry and commerce. He teaches a spinal care class and is available for in-depth consultation regarding:

1. Exercise instruction
2. Ergonomic advice (home or office)
3. Posture assessment and recommendations
4. Sleeping habits and conditions
5. Nutrition

He is an instructor with Dakota County Community Education.

Dr. Ladd resides in West Saint Paul with his wife, Nora. His hobbies include photography and fishing. He is a board member of the Robert Street Business Association and is also member of the St. Paul Club.
