Dr. Hanscom developed the DOC Journey, a pathway out of physical and mental pain (anxiety). He delivers a sequence of insights, exercises, interactive webinars, and an app that teaches you how to calm your nervous system, lower your anxiety

and decrease pain. He has witnessed over a thousand patients resolve multiple physical and mental symptoms.

Each person has a desire to thrive, which is compromised by endless suffering. The Direct your Own Care process evolved from his personal experience escaping from over 15 symptoms and is based on deep medical research. It is self-directed and systematically applying these approaches will enable you to create a new life. Join us on this trip at thedocjourney.com.

Dr. David A. Hanscom is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon specializing in the surgical correction of complex problems in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. A significant part of his practice was devoted to performing surgery on patients who had undergone multiple prior spine surgeries. Around 2001 he began to share his own stress management tool with his patients that were in pain but had no indications of surgery. He had spent much of his career with rehabilitation physicians learning non-operative care. Nowadays, he is focusing his efforts on bringing effective medical treatments for chronic mental and physical pain back into mainstream medicine. His last practice position was Orthopedic Spine Surgeon, Swedish Neuroscience Specialists, Swedish Medical Center, Seattle, WA (retired in December 2018).
