Forty years of caring for Mansfield families.
About Polson Family Chiropractic
A good chiropractor, right here in Mansfield.
My staff and I are committed to helping you and your family lead healthier lives. We specialize in family chiropractic care, with a focus on education, attentive treatment, and making sure every patient walks out satisfied.
We’ve served this community since 1984. We pride ourselves on a true “No Wait” policy, so you’re seen promptly by friendly staff in large, comfortable treatment rooms. Our office sits just off Hwy 287 on Broad St., and we have years of experience working with auto injuries and most insurance companies.
Whether you’re dealing with low back pain, recovering from a car accident, managing arthritis, or navigating a pregnancy, we build a plan around you instead of handing you a generic protocol. We also see families who make the drive in from Arlington, Grand Prairie, Kennedale, Midlothian, and Dallas, because a good chiropractor is worth the drive.
Grace and Peace, Dr. Michael C. Polson, DC
Meet Dr. Michael Polson
Faith, family, and a life spent serving this community.
I live in Mansfield with my wife Susan. We’re blessed with four children and four grandchildren. I’m originally from Vernon, Texas, and I studied at Vernon Regional Jr College and the University of Houston before earning my Chiropractic Doctorate from Texas Chiropractic College in Houston in 1984, where I finished as part of the school’s Top Ten Clinical Internship and later served as Department Head of Radiology.
Outside the office, you’ll find me on bike rides and hikes with Susan, at the beach or in the mountains, teaching Sunday school, or water skiing when the weather allows. Volunteer work matters deeply to me. I give my time to children and youth ministry at my church and to a national prison ministry, and I’m often invited to speak to local civic groups on stress management, back injury prevention, and lifelong health.
I see God as the Healer and myself as a servant. I’d be honored to walk alongside you toward better health.
I’ve been asked over the years why I’m still doing this after four decades. The honest answer is that I still get to watch someone stand up straighter, sleep better, or get back on the floor with their grandkids — and that never gets old. I don’t rush appointments, and I don’t push treatment plans nobody asked for. I’d rather explain what I’m seeing in plain language and let you decide what’s next.
