The Wellness Experience: New Added Services, More Ways to Wellness

 

By Krista Martinelli

 

 

Dr. Randall Laurich of The Wellness Experience has a well-rounded approach to his chiropractic practice and brings together many elements of wellness. He already has an advantage over many other chiropractors by offering state-of-the-art technology in his office – the ProAdjuster, which is a gentle, non-invasive technique, especially

 helpful for the young and the elderly patients. And the DRX 9000, a sophisticated machine in treating herniated, degenerated and bulging disks. (See the videos of Laurich showing the ProAdjuster and the DRX 9000 below). He’s grown his office in Kobosko’s Crossing to include even more services now. He teamed up with fellow chiropractor Dr. Andrew Biggs, in order to see more patients. He also brought in a nutritionist, Tracy Mastandrea, RD, LD/N, who works with patients to improve their overall wellness. With customized nutrition and detoxification programs, she is helping people to improve the quality of their lives overall – very much in tune with the Wellness Experience’s mission. As an added bonus, the Wellness Experience added an aesthetician to their staff. So patients can go to the Wellness Experience for facials and microdermabrasian too. 

The staff at The Wellness Experience has embraced better diet and fitness plans over the past year, giving a good path to follow for their patients. Dr. Laurich explains, “I realized that if you’re unhealthy, you can’t really advise others to live a healthy lifestyle.” So Laurich himself dropped several pounds, starting working out regularly, cut back on sugar and became a better role model for wellness. As a result of doing this with his staff, they built a stronger team. They always highlight five facets of health in getting to wellness – proper nutrition, exercise, a positive mental attitude, proper sleep and a properly functioning nervous system. As a chiropractor, Laurich is keenly aware of how the brain affects the nervous system, and the nervous system affects the whole body. As for sleep issues, they find that nine out of ten times, “it’s the mattress” causing the problems.

 

Perhaps as a result of their emphasis on fitness, they’ve attracted a majority of patients who are in some kind of fitness program, including some athletes and triathletes. “Everyone needs some sort of fitness component,” Dr. Laurich firmly believes.

When patients need to resolve some serious back pain, Laurich also often refers them to fitness and stretching expert Cheryl Alker. Alker writes our AroundWellington.com “Health & Fitness” column each month. A few months ago she released a helpful DVD for sufferers of back pain, which can be purchased at the Wellness Experience. 

Alker speaks glowingly of her first encounter with Dr. Laurich and how they learned about each other’s talents. “My first introduction to Dr. Laurich was via a written article and his success with migraine sufferers.  My sister has suffered with migraines throughout her whole life. However, the regularity of the headaches had worsened. I referred her to the article and she started a program with Dr. Laurich.  Whilst she was being treated she mentioned my work and Dr. Laurich and I arranged a time to show him my program.  My techniques are incredibly powerful, and results are felt within one session, so luckily Dr. Laurich was able to see the benefit of my work immediately – the results were the proof. He obviously had no hesitation in referring his clients to me, as well as recommending my Free Yourself From Back Pain DVD, which is available from the Wellness Center or from my website http://www.stretchresults.com/. I also then spent many hours observing Dr. Laurich’s techniques, the technology he uses and his results.  His work is the best of both worlds, technology with his undeniable knowledge and a caring attitude. We had found a match, I have no hesitation in recommending the Wellness Center to anyone I know professionally or personally. Oh and by the way, my sister’s migraines?  She has seen a 95% improvement. In fact she has not suffered a full blown migraine since she began treatment!”

A frequent question that Dr. Laurich gets from patients is, “Why do we have to keep coming back?” He explains that care of the spine is a maintenance program. “Every single person wants a better quality of life. In order to keep the spine in alignment, many people need a monthly or biweekly alignment.” The question, he explains, is similar to someone asking, “Why do I have to eat right?” In other words, it’s not a one-time thing; it’s a practice, a routine of health. “To embrace the five facets of health, you have to maintain them. Your body can easily become out of line amidst the ongoing struggle with physical, chemical and emotional stress,” says Laurich.

With the holistic method that they use at the Wellness Experience along with the latest in technology, they get a lot of appreciative patients. Sometimes the “thank you’s” come directly from patients who finally have become free of pain. Other times it comes from a family member who is just happy to see their relative no longer in pain. That’s what they’re all about at the Wellness Experience – Dr. Randy Laurich, Dr. Andrew Biggs, Brandy, Carol, Marcos and the other staff. They aim to free people from pain and give them a better quality of life.

What do clients appreciate most? “It’s the family atmosphere that we provide,” says Laurich. It’s truly a friendly place to visit, a place where the staff enjoy coming to work and the patients enjoy the results that they get. Also, they’ve recently changed the aesthetics of the office to create more of a spa environment, which people seem to enjoy too.

It really is a family environment, where Dr. Laurich’s wife Lorraine works in the office a few days a week. Their children who are six and four-years-old are often at the office too, seeing what their parents do and sometimes even helping out. They are a delightful family, very enthusiastic about being a part of the Wellington community.

As Dr. Laurich celebrates five years at his office in Wellington, he also become very active in Wellington activities. He is the co-chair of the Health, Wellness and Medical Committee (along with Blake Kendall) for the Wellington Chamber of Commerce. They present an Annual Health & Wellness Expo, offering the best of health and wellness services to our community. He also co-chaired Wellington’s WinterFest last year, which was its most successful year so far. He recently began hosting a weekly radio show on W4CY.com, the Experience Wellness Talk Show on Tuesdays at 2:00pm.  He enjoys taking questions from the community and discussing the different aspects of wellness on air.  He also enjoys the opportunity to interview local business owners, fitness experts, fitness event coordinators and others in related fields in the community.

Best of all, the Wellness Experience is a place that’s open to many methods of healing and many ways of helping their patients. This stems from Dr. Laurich’s open-mindedness, as someone who has been known to combine chiropractic care with medical care. He uses the method which best fits your age, your issues and your wellness profile. It’s a place for healing and a place for total wellness!
