Lander Chiropractic: Four Doctors, One Vision for a Healthier Community

It began with a moment of transformation.

Years before Lander Chiropractic became a trusted hub for whole-body wellness in Brea, California, Dr. Anastasia Lander was working in the high-pressure world of Wall Street. Life moved fast, and health was often an afterthought. The turning point came when her young daughter experienced chronic health challenges that conventional care could not fully resolve. After trying chiropractic care, her daughter’s improvement was so significant that Dr. Anastasia’s career path shifted entirely. What started as relief for her family became a lifelong mission to help others experience similar benefits.

That decision led Dr. Anastasia to partner with Dr. James Lander, an elite runner with a background in exercise physiology. Together, they created a practice where chiropractic care focused on the whole person, not just the symptoms.

A Mission That Grew from One Room to a Community Hub

When Lander Chiropractic opened, the approach was clear: treat each patient as an individual, take the time to understand their needs, and build lasting relationships. Unlike offices where visits may last only minutes, the doctors here invest in understanding their patients’ lifestyles and health goals.

This philosophy attracted a growing number of loyal patients, and over time, new practitioners who shared the same vision joined the team.

Four Chiropractors, Four Unique Paths

The team expanded to include two additional chiropractors, each bringing their own story and expertise.

• Dr. Hailey Danko began as a patient at Lander Chiropractic. Years of care inspired her to study chiropractic medicine and return to the practice as a doctor.
  
  

• Dr. Courtney Dean joined with a commitment to community health and a skill set that complemented the team’s existing strengths.

Today, four chiropractors collaborate to offer a wide range of services, including prenatal and postnatal care, pediatric adjustments, sports injury recovery, concussion management, and specialized therapies such as Graston, craniosacral therapy, active muscle release, and cupping.

Integrated Wellness Services Under One Roof

Lander Chiropractic integrates chiropractic care with acupuncture and other complementary treatments. This approach allows for treatment plans tailored to structural alignment, muscle health, nervous system function, and overall well-being.

Expectant mothers often seek care for pregnancy-related discomfort. Athletes use the services to recover from injuries and improve performance. Parents bring infants for gentle adjustments that support early development, and older adults receive care to improve mobility and manage chronic discomfort.

The unifying goal is to guide patients toward optimal health and empower them to maintain it.

A Strong Sense of Community

The practice is known for building meaningful connections. Patients often describe the experience as personal and welcoming, with doctors who remember important details from past visits.

“Most chiropractors spend less than five minutes with patients,” says Dr. Anastasia. “We listen. We learn what is going on in their lives, not just their bodies. That is how you help someone reach their health goals.”

The environment reflects this philosophy, with patients of all ages feeling comfortable and supported throughout their care journey.

Why Patients Return

The difference lies in the commitment to long-term wellness. The doctors do more than relieve immediate discomfort; they help patients understand how to prevent future issues and sustain their overall health.

As Dr. James explains, “It is not about the adjustment. It is about the adjustment to life that happens afterward.”
