 Q: What is Chiropractic?
A: Chiropractic specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions that are caused by mechanical dysfunction of the joints, and their effects on the nervous system. Chiropractors use their hands to adjust joints, the spine and other parts of the body where restricted movement is experienced. These adjustments improve mobility and relieve pain by restoring normal function to the patient's body. Chiropractors treat patients for: - Back pain
- Neck pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Hip, leg, knee and foot problems
- Shoulder, arm, and wrist problems

Q: How is an IQ Impulse adjustment done?
A: Just as lasers have replaced scalpels in some surgeries, advanced technology has become available to chiropractors to assist in delivering chiropractic adjustments. This patented and FDA registered device was specifically created to deliver gentle and precise chiropractic adjustments to the joints of the spine and extremities to relieve pain and restore function. The controlled low force thrust of Impulse make treatments comfortable. Impulse is specifically tuned to the natural frequency of the body that joints, muscles and nerves respond to, optimizing results for patients.

Q: Can chiropractic help me?
A: Chiropractic helps millions of people worldwide alleviate a variety of problems. The spinal column is closely related to the central nervous system, and for this reason, chiropractic can help treat symptoms of any discomfort related to the central nervous system. By alleviating stress on the spinal column, health is restored.

Q: Is it safe and is it painful?
A: Chiropractic is safe for people of all ages. Research shows that chiropractic care is consistently among the safest treatments available predominantly due to its noninvasive techniques. Chiropractic treatments are generally not painful. Some patients who are suffering from extreme pain may experience mild discomfort, however at Rauch Chiropractic Wellness Center our treatments are always gentle.

Q: What are some of the sensations I'll experience during a session?
A: During an adjustment there are many sensations that can be perceived, a rush of energy up your spine, tingling on top of your head, muscle spasms, emotional releases, spontaneous movements, expanded breath etc. In order to achieve balance around stored tension we first must find it. As our brain is better able to take inventory of the body, it can better orchestrate healing. This naturally occurs as care progresses and the individual not only becomes aware of spinal tension patterns, vertebral motion, and respiration, but also the energetic motion through the body. Natural outcomes of chiropractic care include this awareness, as well as the self-regulation of spinal tension and alignment.

Q: Why is it that we loose our wellness and health?
A: Our wellness and health are associated with the way we experience our world. When an event occurs that our brain determines is not safe for us to fully experience, the energy and information of the event is translated into vibration and tension, which is then stored in the body. It is not unlike the after-image of a flashbulb. Our body then walls off the offending energy and tension over time with muscular spasm, spinal distortion, reduced breathing into the area, and reduced movement. Much of what many disciplines seek to correct through manipulation, massage, and therapy is often a symptom of this process. Until it is safe to experience that energy again, and our bodies develop the strategy to do this, and digest the information from the trauma, we cannot really feel whole or well. The state of safety is one which promotes internal awareness and internal "growth".

To see is to know
to not see...is to guess
Your Chiropractor will never guess about your health.
Your doctor, who has had extensive X-ray training,
will never require X-ray studies which are not vital to
the diagnosis and treatment of your condition |
