About The Techniques

NET, Neuro Emotional Technique deals with emotional reality that may be physiologically blocking the healing process. Just like Pavlov's dog linked the sound of the bell with being fed. Events in our lives can be linked to emotions and feelings. These behaviors years later can be counterproductive to our health.

Dr. Candice Koch utilizes Applied Kinesiology (muscle testing), Activator, Sacro Occipital Technique (Blocking), Advanced BioStructural Correction, Network Spinal Analysis, Logan, and CranioSacral, Thompson, Gonstead, and Diversified as her structural types of care protocol; depending on the patient's preference and health concern as to which technique is utilized.

For pregnant mothers, Dr. Candice Koch is certified in the Webster Technique and has been trained in the Bagnell Technique. Both of these techniques help to stabilize the pelvic regions by balancing the pelvic muscles and ligaments which in turn removes constraint to the women's uterus and allows the baby to get into the best possible position for birth.

Dr. Larry Webster, Founder of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, discovered the Webster Technique as a safe means to restore proper pelvic balance and function for pregnant mothers. In expectant mothers presenting breech, there has been high reported success rates of the baby turning to normal vertex position.

Any position of the baby, other than vertex, may indicate the presence of sacral subluxation and therefore result in intrauterine constraint. It is strongly recommended by instructors of the technique that this specific analysis and adjustment of the sacrum be used throughout pregnancy. This technique will detect imbalance and prevent intrauterine constraint.

Because of the effect that chiropractic adjustment has on all body functions, pregnant mothers should have their spines checked regularly throughout pregnancy, allowing for safer, easier deliveries and optimized health benefits for both the mother and baby.

For mothers who recently delivered, Dr. Candice Koch offers to stabilize the pelvic regions as the ligaments are lax due to the hormonal changes of pregnancy and birth.

For children, Dr. Candice Koch offers adjustments to restore the nervous system function and allow the body the ability to express a greater state of wellbeing and health. She has helped children with colic, nursing difficulties, sleep disturbances, breathing difficulties, chronic infections and allergic reactions.

Dr. Candice Koch also assists patients with sensitivity issues with the BAX-3000. This is a biofeedback machine addressing sensitivities. This is commonly considered an allergy of some type. Delayed allergies are most commonly helped with this machine. She has had success with colic, lactose intolerance, and gluten issues. Helping to decrease the sensitivity to something allows the body to then digest nutrition and eliminate inflammation. In doing so the disease process can be eliminated or progress of the disease can be slowed.
