Connection Cafe – A Chiropractic Center

Update to getting karate chopped in the neck, fiasco from the Rhianna song that threw my neck out, to having a concussion on my head from hitting so hard where I almost blacked out I’m so so happy I found the dynamic duo of a couple to help me align my body back even after all those mishaps I’m able to function! Yay!!! Thank you for all you do and making it possible for me to continue!

Connection Café is a wonderful resource to the community, is has a wonderful presence and knowledgeable practitioners. Derrell and Morgan have been caring for my husband and myself for six months, we enjoy the nurturing and healing care we recieve.
Morgan post wonderful videos on facebook, which often remind me of the benefits of self care and getting an adjustment and the neurological shifts that occur when receiving continuously care.
The pricing is fair based on the area and the other practitioners I worked with in the past. Café Connection is family friendly and provides a space for community and sharing of ideas.

As a small business owner, it is very important that I perform at my highest ability throughout the day and week. A few months back I began experiencing a very strong pain in my upper back. This pain would simply not go away no matter what I did. So after months of attempting to run my demanding business in pain I had gotten to the point where I was no longer able to do so. Dr. Derrell and the connection café was referred to me by a local business owner. That same day I called in to schedule an appointment. A few days later I was able to receive my first adjustment and all I can say is WOW!!! Right then I signed up for dr. Derrell’s monthly plan. By the 3^rd or 4^th visit my pain level had went down by 50%. Well long story short it’s been about 9 visits now and I feel great and about 90% of the pain has gone away. I signed up again for another month of adjustments not so much because of pain or discomfort, but mostly for maintenance. The open adjustment hours make it extremely easy for me to get an adjustment on my time off or between detail appointments.
It’s safe to say that regular visits to dr. Derrell has allowed me to make more money by being able to take in more work throughout the week now that most of the pain is gone and able to perform at a higher level once again.
I recommend the connection café to every small business owner weather your an automotive detailer like myself or a barber/​hair stylist. It is important that we stay healthy and our body’s strong in order to perform our demanding task.

Dr Derrell is a wonderful chiropractor, his technique has been successful in keeping my entire family healthy & adjusted. Although, each family member’s needs are unique: my Husband’s sports related injuries, my children’s growing pains and my body changes related to pregnancy; Dr. Derrell has been able to care for all of us equally well, demonstrating his wide range of chiropractic knowledge & skill. His bedside manner is very calm and friendly which is a plus and puts patients at ease. The office environment is very bright, welcoming and super clean.

I’ve been adjusted by many Chiropractors over the years. Dr. Derrell and Dr. Morgan are two of THE best! Their communication is always clear and concise, their adjustments are awesome and I can tell these two professionals know what they are doing. They happen to be really nice, honest, people too. Make an appointment, check them out, I know you’ll be as impressed as I am.

Can I just say amazing!!! Dr. Morgan was the very first person to ever adjust my daughter and I and we absolutely LOVE her to the moon and back. My daughter loves getting adjusted and feeling healthy. Before I begin seeing Dr. Morgan I suffered from terrible migraines that would take me to the ER and every time I was told that there was nothing wrong and I should take some pain killers such a Vicodin. Since I started getting adjusted I no longer suffer from migraines. As time passed I mentioned to Dr. Morgan about my irregular periods, and how I would go 3 – 4 months without having one. I was so happy when she came up with a plan to start helping me. Soon after that I had become regular, month after month. What Dr. Morgan can do with her hands is amazing, she has the power to heal and she’s beautiful inside and out. Who doesn’t love someone so talented and great with people and especially KIDS?! I do!!!

I’m a believer! Before getting into a routined weekly checkup, I had no prior history seeing or thought I’d ever be seeing a chiropractor.
As an athlete, I had been experiencing a ton of lower back pain and ventured into chiropractic care. I’ve been coming in to see both Dr. Derrell and Dr. Morgan for the past few months. And boy! The difference from my first visit and now is remarkable! Not only do they provide the utmost care, but have also shown and discussed the importance of keeping all aligned and connected.
Also! I have to mention just how convenient and easy it is to make appointments. Show up when you can during their open adjusting hours, no more stressing on missed or upcoming appointments. Definite ⁵⁄₅

Dr. Morgan has taken care of me for over a year. While under her care, my body is always functioning at 100%. I’ve been adjusted by several different chiropractors and Dr. Morgan is undoubtedly among the best. She always takes her time to connect and check in with me to see how I am doing. She knows so much about how Chiropractic is good for the mind, body and soul. She will make sure that you know what is possible when you get regularly adjusted. Dr. Derrell is pretty awesome too. He is one of the most hardworking and passionate individuals I have ever met. He absolutely loves serving his community and will do whatever it takes to make sure that you get the best care possible. Come to Connection Café – you will not be disappointed!

Dr. Morgan and Dr. Derrell were introduced into my life a few years ago when I was looking at chiropractic schools. From day one they have been nothing but caring, supportive, and helpful. I was fortunate enough to have Dr. Morgan as an intern in the health center at school. Coming from someone who gets adjusted multiple times a week, I can say without a doubt that Dr. Morgan’s adjustments are some of the best I’ve received. I was also very fortunate to have the opportunity to shadow Dr. Derrell at their office which was a great experience. Their office was extremely inviting, professional, and I loved how kid and family friendly the environment was. These two are not only amazing leaders in the community but amazing and loving human beings. I would highly recommend these two for anyone and everyone who is thinking about chiropractic care. You are in good Hansen.

Dr Morgan is one of the most dedicated, caring, and inspiring chiropractors I know! I was lucky enough to be her student patient while in chiropractic college and not only did she clear all my subluxations, she encouraged me daily and inspired me to become a strong female chiropractor like herself! I would recommend Dr Morgan and Dr Derrel to any and all of my friends and family — you will be in EXCELLENT hands!

I’m giving the doctor 4 star not because the treatment is good for me but for his extraordinary salesman skill.
The adjustment I got is just the same as I can get in any other chiropractor but less. Usually a good doctor will try to release your muscle after the adjustment by using some tools or by hand. He simply skip those and will keep telling you this is all he can do, you need to let your body heal, taking rest and come back some time later. Be aware, if your muscle is very tight and unbalance already, your bone will back to the wrong position very soon without constantly release the muscle.
He try to sale you a monthly package which may or may not good for most of the people. Also his office hours is not good for people who have a regular 9 – 5 job and need to take care of kids during the weekend.

Dr. Derrell is a gifted chiropractor! I am a coach and active athlete myself and went to see Derrell for a chronic piriformis issue in my glutes. I’ll start off by saying that I have been to several chiropractors so I’m very picky about the care and technique I receive. He was immediately warm and gentle in personality so I trusted him as he began adjusting me. Dr. Derrell does a wonderful job of explaining what he is doing in relationship to your body. Furthermore, his adjustments are gentle in nature, but strongly felt throughout the body.
Recently, I even convinced my wife to see him, which has taken years of me being treated by chiropractors. She has suffered from headaches, upper back issues, and teeth grinding in her sleep. In the first visit alone, she was feeling better the next day, more relaxed in her head, traps, and shoulders, and committed to seeing him more often.
Not only has he treated my nagging piriformis at incredible results, but I now see him bi-​weekly to ensure my overall good health so I can maintain my active lifestyle and occupation. Dr. Derrell will be adjusting myself, my wife, and our child in the years to come. We are so fortunate and grateful to have him in our life!

I have been going to see Dr Derrell for awhile now. He has help me with my back, neck, and shoulder pain. Oh wait, did I mention with my anxiety as well. I didn’t know the way I was feeling connected with all of my symptoms above. Chiropractic healing is such a relief in many ways. I can’t thank him enough, I can’t wait for my next visit. If you haven’t contact his office yet, I strongly recommend it.:) Let’s all start taking care of ourselves.

What can I say? My kids & I love Morgan!
As a hairstylist I am really putting my body through a lot by standing for long hours, bending over, blow drying… You get the idea. I had some back/​neck/​hip pain that I just couldn’t take anymore. We’ve been seeing Morgan since she was finishing up at Life West College, and I am so happy we found her.
My son (8) plays sports year round and my daughter (4) is an active little girl. Morgan works extremely well with children, my kids ALWAYS look forward to seeing her. They are even excited to get adjusted. This entire time we’ve seen Morgan they’ve been nothing but healthy. They’ve formed a wonderful relationship with her, as have I.
A lot of people shy away from chiropractic care. I am a firm believer in it. I’ve never felt better and I know it will help keep my children healthy, and able to keep myself in the beauty industry for a very long time. If you’re looking for chiropractic care, Morgan is the doctor for you! She’ll work with you to address the issues you’re having.
The Connection Café itself is BEAUTIFUL! Clean, relaxing, and well kept. I’ll never stop recommending Morgan or the Connection Café :)

I have been going to Dr Derrell for over a month now and can’t say enough good things about connection café. From the ease of setting up the first appointment to the monthly family plan that lets me check in when ever! it keeps everyone in the family healthy. I started getting severe back pain post delivery and getting myself checked every week has improved my posture and the pain tremendously.
I’d also like to mention that before going to Dr Derrell I went to KP and the Dr there prescribed Salon Pas and Turmeric! Seriously, Turmeric! I highly recommend Dr Derrell’s Chiropractic service over any other allopathic practice for pain recovery. Dr Derrell and Morgan are always cheerful and genuinely care about the patients.
Tip: If you contribute to FSA, you can reimburse the monthly family plan!

Dr. Derrell knows chiropractic healing. He helped me with my upper back/​neck pain by evaluating my spine and movements carefully. When he stretches you with his repositioning technique, you will know what I am talking! R.E.L.I.E.F is the word. We have subscribed to his monthly plan and stay connected with him. ⁵⁄₅ for sure.

My awesome midwife recommended Darrell. I’m currently 39 weeks and ended an adjustment. I’m hooked, never been to a chiro before and I’m glad this was my first experience. Darrell is a truly gifted at what he does and it shows in his work. Everything was awesome and I really enjoyed seeing the interaction he has with his other clients. I will be bringing the family and the baby once he/​she is born ^^*

My daughter was hospitalized at UCSF and Dr. Derrell found out my daughter needed to be adjusted. Even though we didn’t know anyone in the area Dr. Derrell showed up at the hospital and adjusted her and my husband and I. He is amazing! Even though we don’t live in the area we are grateful for his bedside manner and highly recommend him! He knew about us from someone in a different state and our situation didn’t intimidate him whatsoever. Thanks for your kindness and compassion Dr. Derrell!

I had a very painful lower back, a friend told me to go see a Chiropractor. I was a little hesitant but I didn’t want to go to a regular Doctor and have more pills shoved down my throat so I decided to find a Chiropractor. I really didn’t know where to start and my friend told me to look on Unilocal,here I am. I choose Dr. Derrel because I liked his reviews, especially the part that says he’s gentle, I was already in enough pain. Very hesitate, off I went, little did I know that this was going to change my life.
My first visit, he explained what he was doing and why, I had my first adjustment. He was leaving on vacation the next day but he knew how much pain I was in so he agreed to meet me at 7am the next morning before he left to do a second adjustment, I don’t know of any other Dr. that would do that. By the second adjustment I was walking and feeling 100% better.
This is the good part! I suffer from chronic migraines, 18 – 23 days a month. I’ve tried everything, meditation, pills, Botox, neurologist, etc. with little success. The only thing that really helps is the pills but they take a toll on my body and cause other chronic problems. Because I decided to continue seeing Dr. Derrel 3 times a week I noticed that I had gone 11 days without a headache and, when I get a headache they only last a couple of days instead of 5 – 6 days. I admit that it was my back that brought me in but this keeps me coming back. 11 days without a migraine, that is life changing.
I would like to say one more thing that I haven’t seen anyone address, the fee. When Dr. Derrel advised that he would like to see me at least 3 times a week in the beginning, I was a little nervous because I’m single and I wasn’t sure I would be able to afford it. When he told me that he charges a monthly fee for unlimited visits, I was sold. One of my friends sees a Chiropractor in San Jose, my monthly fee was less than 3 of her visits. The Dr. told me that he would rather charge a monthly fee so it’s affordable for his patients to get the number of visits needed to help improve the quality of their life. This alone told me that he really cares about his patients, I really believe that his goal is to help me live a better life.
Sorry for the long review but I sincerely want you to consider Dr. Derrel if you are looking for a Chiropractor, you will not be disappointed.

Dr. Derrell and Connection Café continues to serve me well! Dr. Derrell is extremely knowledgeable in relating chiropractic to my life. Being an athlete, he explained how chiropractic would help me in performing at the highest level. He was a college athlete himself so it was a natural conversation. I’ve also noticed that with Chiropractic and through getting my nervous system checked reguarly, I’m able to adapt better in many areas. Not only do I feel better (emotionally as well) but I’m able to sleep better, stay well through flu and cold season, and have better concentration in school.
Dr. Derrell is extremely gentle, open, and knowledgeable. He’s a great listener. He made me feel extremely comfortable and secure with my concerns. He’s one of those people who I just feel better by being around. Connection Café is by far a space that you not only receive Chiropractic care, but leave being in a great mood. I’d imagine that it’s a combination of Chiropractic and Derrell! :)
I’ve also notcied that many kids and their familes come to Derrell as well. What he explained is that when kids get their nervous systems checked, they too can adapt and faciliate health at a higher level. When I have kids in the future, I definetly will being them to Derrell so they can be the healthiest they can be. I would trust him with my closest family, friends and loved ones! I highly recommend Dr. Derrell and Connection Café!
