Chiropractor

Giana Backes D.C.

Dr. Giana grew up in the small town of Hurley, WI. While in high school, she had a few sports related injuries where chiropractic helped get her back to playing the sports she loved. She always knew she wanted a career in the medical field and thought she would become a pediatrician, however, after graduating from UW-Stevens Point with a degree in Biology, she took a year off to decide what profession was the right fit for her.

During this year of personal discovery, she worked in a hospital as a CNA and enjoyed the patients but had a hard time with the medical paradigm. She realized patients would get healthy enough to go home but many would return within weeks with the same health concerns. In her mind, she knew there had to be a better way to help these people live healthier and happier lives. That is when she decided to become a chiropractor.

Dr. Giana attended Palmer College of Chiropractic and graduated as Valedictorian of her class. She enjoys taking care of all ages but has a passion for helping children and families. She has been granted Certification by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (CACCP) and is Webster certified.

In her free time, you can find her spending time with her two children and husband Jon. As a family they enjoy being outside gardening, going on walks and spending time on the water.

Hi, I am Maggie. Before joining Dr. Giana at Backes Family Chiropractic, I was a cook at the Mosinee School district for the past 14 years and drove school bus since 2007. When I first started, I didn’t know much about chiropractic care as I have never been adjusted before.

Since I have started here at BFC I now understand all the great benefits of being adjusted, and how our nervous system controls our body. I hope from the moment you walk through the door that you will have an amazing experience with myself and Dr. Giana and learn so much about chiropractic care and benefits from it as much as I have.

A little about me. I enjoy reading, fishing with my husband Nick of 21 years, playing with our dog Hank, cat Pete. My all-time favorite thing is watching my 2 kids play sports. My daughter Adeline is attending The University of Wisconsin Stevens Point, and my son Chris is a senior at Mosinee High school. Some of my favorite memories are when Adeline’s High school softball team went to State in 2024 and took 2nd, and Chris taking 1st at regionals for wrestling his freshman year of High school.

Now that you know a little about me, I look forward to getting to know you and your family and learning so many new things about Chiropractic care together.
