Dr. Michael Banman, DC
For 23 years, Dr. Banman's job has been the same: figure out what is actually causing your pain, then decide what to do about it. He listens first and explains what he finds in plain words. If he is not the right fit for your case, he will tell you, and point you to who is.

Milestone
The DC, earned.
Dr. Banman finishes chiropractic school and begins practicing, calm, listening style from day one.
23 years of listening first, then treating.
Dr. Banman has built his practice on calm, thorough care and clear explanations. Patients tell us he doesn't talk over them or rush the process. Practicing chiropractic since 2003, with regenerative medicine added in 2013, his goal is to help patients understand their options and build a care plan they can actually follow.
Why he does this work.
His path into chiropractic began with a family experience. It was strengthened years later by his own recovery through regenerative medicine, a personal experience that reinforced his belief in non-invasive alternatives to pain and surgery. That experience now shapes how he talks to patients about their options: with the perspective of someone who's been on the other side of the table.
From Canada to Lakewood Ranch.
Dr. Banman ran a family clinic in Canada before moving his practice to the United States. Since 2010, he has worked with patients and athletes across North America, Europe, and the United States, specializing in performance and injury prevention. That experience led to a consulting role at Arizona State University (ASU), then opening his own clinic in Arizona, before relocating to Lakewood Ranch.
Regenerative medicine + medical missions.
Since 2013, Dr. Banman has incorporated regenerative medicine, including stem cell therapy, into his practice. It gives him another option for patients whose pain has not improved with adjustments and therapy alone. Each year he also joins medical missions in South America, treating people in communities with little access to this kind of care.
Bilingual care, by design.
Dr. Banman speaks Spanish, so Spanish-speaking patients can describe what is wrong in their own words. No translator in the middle, and nothing lost between languages.
