Pottawattamie County Sports & Family Chiropractic provides a personalized treatment plan for every patient. We accept most major insurance plans and will work with you to see if your insurance covers your treatment. In some cases, services will require cash payment. *
Our services include:
BEMER Therapy
Bio Electro Magnetic Energy Regulation / BEMER therapy is a revolutionary medical technology designed to reduce pain, restore energy and improve health. The service is conducted on a special BEMER mat, which uses pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) to deliver patented therapeutic signals throughout the body. BEMER is the only PEMF device specifically designed to target the microcirculatory system, the core system necessary for optimal health, and we are pleased to be one of the only providers in the area to offer the treatment.
*Only available as a cash service.
Chiropractic Adjustments / Manipulation
Chiropractic adjustments are one of the most common manual therapy techniques performed in our clinic. This type of treatment targets specific spinal and extremity joints to restore function/range of motion and decrease pain.
*For patients who need it, we also offer cash pricing for adjustments. An initial exam and treatment is $60, and each adjustment after that is $40.
Class IV Laser Therapy
We’re proud to offer the industry’s leading and most powerful Class IV Laser, which uses specific wavelengths of light to create therapeutic effects on the body. This pain-free, non-invasive treatment option is designed to help patients reduce pain and inflammation, increase range of motion, and speed up recovery times. In most cases, patients experience noticeable improvements after just 1-2 treatments, though additional treatments may be recommended.
*Only available as a cash service.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping is an ancient Chinese therapy that’s based on the belief that certain health problems can be caused by stagnant blood and a poor energy flow through your body. During this type of treatment, Dr. Wiechmann applies silicone cups to your skin to create pressure. The suction promotes blood flow to the affected areas, which in turn can help relieve tension and inflammation in your muscles.
*Only available as a cash service.
Detailed Lab Testing
We offer a variety of testing options to identify the underlying issues that are contributing to your health concerns. We’ll use the information we uncover to create a customized treatment plan and get you on the road toward better health.
Dry Needling
During this treatment, Dr. Wiechmann carefully inserts a “dry” needle (one without medication or liquid) directly into a knot or pressure point in order to relieve tightness and pain in the muscles. Although the treatment is similar to acupuncture, it’s not the same. The primary goal of dry needling is to relieve muscle pain and tension, whereas acupuncture focuses on returning energy flow to a state of balance by removing blocked or interrupted chi.
Fascial Movement Taping
Functional Movement Taping is a type of rehabilitative taping technique designed to provide support and stability for weak or injured muscles. Dr. Wiechmann is specially trained in applying rehabilitative tape, such as ROCKTAPE, and will do so based on individual needs after evaluation.
*Only available as a cash service.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine is a technique that focuses on addressing the root cause of a disease, not just the symptoms. Our goal is to return you to optimal health by showing you how your diet, lifestyle choices and biomechanical factors can lead to dysfunction. Through a combination of manual therapies and advice on diet, exercise and positive lifestyle choices, we help your body heal itself and get you on the road toward better health, faster and more efficiently. Some of the things we can test for include:
- Parasites
- Mold and mycotoxins
- Glyphosate toxicity
- Heavy metals
- Lyme disease
- Yeast and candida
- Viruses
Functional Movement Screens
Many individuals are inefficient in their movement patterns. With a strong background in sports medicine and corrective exercise techniques, Dr. Wiechmann helps patients address faulty movement patterns and reduce the risk of injury.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy involves lying inside a pressurized chamber that releases 95-100% pure oxygen that’s increased two to three times the normal levels provided in our everyday environment. When your blood carries this extra oxygen throughout your body, it helps fight bacteria and stimulate the release of substances called growth factors and stem cells, which promote healing. Benefits include:
- Reducing pain and inflammation
- Speeding up recovery time after an infection, concussion or injury
- Decreasing risk of re-injury
- Healing wounds and radiation injuries
- Optimizing recovery from traumatic brain injuries
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an out-of-pocket expense. For your convenience, we offer competitive cash pricing options:
- $75 for a one-hour session
- $325 for 5 one-hour sessions ($50 savings)
- $675 for 10 one-hour sessions ($75 savings)
- $1,000 for 15 one-hour sessions ($125 savings)
Ionic Foot Bath
An ionic foot bath is a foot soak that uses water charged with positive and negative ions to help draw out toxins from your body. Benefits include:
- Improving lymph circulation
- Relieving migraines and headaches
- Improving skin conditions
- Increasing natural energy levels
- Improving sleep quality and relaxation
- Strengthening immune system function to help fight off viruses
- Relieving muscle/joint pain and swelling
This treatment lasts approximately 30 minutes and can be offered in conjunction with other treatments or on its own.
McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy
The McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT) is a process used to treat and assess a variety of orthopedic conditions, including back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, knee pain and ankle pain, as well as sciatica, sacroiliac joint pain, arthritis, degenerative disc disease and muscle spasms. Developed by world-renowned expert physiotherapist Robin McKenzie, this exercise-based approach helps correct muscle mechanics and decrease or eliminate pain.
Muscle Testing
Muscle testing targets specific components of your body in the proper order to get to the true root causes that are impacting your health. If you’re dealing with chronic illness, an infection or symptoms that come and go, this foundational protocol is a great place to start.
Nutritional Counseling
Proper diet and exercise are crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle as well as preventing many degenerative diseases. With years of experience and advanced education in nutrition and supplementation, Dr. Wiechmann specializes in nutritional counseling and testing for patients of all ages. We also sell high-quality, organic supplements and can provide recommendations based on your specific needs.
*Only available as a cash service.
Rehabilitative and Corrective Exercise
Rehabilitation is an important part of the recovery process following an injury or surgery, and we incorporate this into most of our sessions. Through the use of corrective exercise techniques, Dr. Wiechmann helps patients regain strength, endurance and power, as well as improve flexibility and balance. He also provides helpful education and instructions for continued progress at home.
Soft Tissue Therapy/Graston Technique
Graston Technique® is a type of soft tissue mobilization that utilizes specially designed stainless steel instruments/tools to break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions in the body. As the instruments are moved over the affected area and come in contact with the adhesions, they break up scar tissue and fascial restrictions, which in turn helps relieve pain and restore movement.
Sports Physicals
High school athletes are required to have physical examinations before participating in school sports. As a certified Active Release Technique (ART) professional, American Council on Exercise (ACE) personal trainer and former collegiate athlete, Dr. Wiechmann understands the physical demands that are required to live a healthy and active lifestyle. He can identify areas that may be prone to injury and provide at-home exercises to prevent future issues on and off the field. (Please bring all necessary sports participation paperwork to your appointment.)
*Only available as a cash service.
Theragun
TheraGun helps speed up recovery times and provides deep muscle massage treatment unlike anything you’ve ever felt before. Oftentimes, this can be added on to additional services for a minimal or complimentary fee. Simply ask us about this service at the time of your appointment.
*Only available as a cash service.
*An initial examination fee ($70) will be charged for new patients. In some cases, services require cash payment as noted above. For more information or details on pricing, please contact us.
