Dr. Weary has been in practice since 1982, arriving in Spokane after a 3-year internship in Los Angeles. In 1996, he was awarded a Diplomate in Chiropractic Orthopedics, an advanced certification requiring three years of post-graduate study and board examination. He is full body certified in Active Release Technique, having begun training with Dr. Michael Leahy in 1998. He enjoys a 

very busy practice, treating patients of all ages and athletic ability, in part because of his strong relationship with dozens of physicians and other health care providers in Spokane and surrounding communities.

The career focus for Dr. Weary has been to help patients remove barriers to movement through identifying and mobilizing joint and soft tissue restriction, identifying and treating patterns of chronic muscular inhibition and then educating patients on how to maintain their new found mobility. In this pursuit, Dr. Weary has served as chair of the local chiropractic society for 5 years. While in Los Angeles, he assisted in hands-on training for other young doctors through the Motion Palpation Institute, and he is Certified in Active Release Technique (ART), Graston Technique, Cox Flexion Distraction Technic and more recently, Advanced Muscle Integration Technique (AMIT).

Besides his work with his patients and co-managing Pearson & Weary Clinic with his wife, Dr. Pearson, with whom he shares a wonderful and adventurous life, Dr. Weary is passionate about staying fit, spending time with their two dogs, Booker and Wallace, and diving deep into the world of jazz guitar whenever possible.

Dr. Hendershot graduated from New York Chiropractic College in 2020.  He has been passionate about the function of the body and a natural approach to healing since his first encounter with a chiropractor after injuring his back as a high school wrestler.  He has seen first-hand the merits of a skilled health professional paired with a patient willing to maintain and care for their most valuable asset:  their body. 

Dr. Hendershot values evidence-based care, which includes giving the patients the power to choose from various options of treatment based on the latest literature and best practice of care.  Dr. Hendershot, his wife, and three children love what the Spokane valley has to offer, including rock climbing, camping, hiking, and skiing.

Dr. Andersen was born and raised in rural Utah, where he participated in sports and developed a passion for movement and strength. After high school, he earned a dual bachelor's degree in Exercise Science and Human Nutrition from Southern Utah University in Cedar City, UT. During his time there, he was involved in the school's cheer and stunt team and participated in various 

leadership organizations.

His first experience with chiropractic was also in Cedar City, and sparked his appreciation for the field and set him on his career path. He dedicated significant time to learning about physical rehabilitation and movement optimization. Additionally, he engaged in nearly three years of powerlifting, which taught him the importance of strength and resilience.

Afterward, Dr. Andersen moved to Las Vegas, NV, where he worked as a community outreach coordinator for a local chiropractor. This role allowed him to gain valuable experience and learn about chiropractic’s potential to help people. He later attended the University of Western States, where he earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree and an additional bachelor's degree in Human Biology.

Outside of his professional life, Dr. Andersen enjoys a variety of activities, from video games and movies to hiking, live performances, and spending time at the gym. His greatest loves, however, are his family—including his wife and two rambunctious dogs—traveling, and continually seeking strength and longevity.
