What Makes Us Different

About Crystal Lake Family Wellness

We are always focused on supporting and building your health, and that typically starts with health challenges that bring you to us. We do this by finding the area of greatest stress in the spine, aka subluxation, and removing it through the adjustment.

We believe health is your most important asset. The nervous system is responsible for direction of every organ, every tissue, every muscle, every gland, and every cell (over 30 trillion of them) - at all times! Because of this, we believe that chiropractic care is one of the most essential things anyone can do for their health, and that everyone should have a chiropractor!

We don’t just talk the lifestyle, we walk it too. We believe we should practice what we preach. Dr. Emily and Dr. Josh are constantly seeking new knowledge to improve our reach and help our community. They also love to eat healthy, exercise, and most importantly get adjusted at least once per week. They want to be living the chiropractic lifestyle right with their patients.

THE EDUCATION OF A CHIROPRACTOR

Dr. Josh and Dr. Emily are continually refining their craft to provide the best experience possible for each and every patient. They travel nationwide to continually hone their adjusting skills. Dr. Josh has dedicated 7 years to mastering motion-specific technique as taught by Dr. Tim Young, combined with digital X-ray analysis for unprecedented precision in every adjustment. This advanced training allows us to move exactly what needs to be moved - no more, no less, which is why we succeed where others have reached their limits. They do this for a number of reasons.

They do not take the trust you place in them if you become a patient lightly. We teach our patients health is the most valuable asset any of us possess.

We care for each and every patient as if it were our own family, because everyone here is someone’s family and we believe each person deserves the best. This means we keep wait times as short as possible with a flexible schedule, and are always ready to educate on nutrition or healthy lifestyle tips. This also means in most cases we use x-rays to identify exactly which joint(s) of the spine are under stress.

CHIROPRACTIC EXPLAINED

Being parents and adjusting many little ones as well as their little girls on a regular basis has helped them both become better chiropractors. As they are both collegiate athletes and continually push themselves in the fitness world they also have great experience knowing how athletes work. At Crystal Lake Family Wellness the whole family is truly seen for chiropractic benefits.
The doctors also teach our patients to trust in the innate healing abilities we all possess. So much so that they even delivered their second daughter at home themselves as the midwife was on the way!

This is accomplished because chiropractic care is ultimately caring for the central nervous system, (our brain and spine) which runs our entire body. The adjustment does not treat anything, other than the vertebral subluxation. When the interference is removed from the nervous system, the body's healing ability takes over. "There is truly only one cause and one cure of disease. The cause: the body's inability to comprehend itself and/or it's environment. The cure: the body's ability to heal itself." Dr. Fred Barge, D.C.

The next step is to simply give us a call. We are looking forward to starting this journey of health with you, and are here for you when you’re ready.
