Dr. Lynn Hausrath has been my chiropractor for most of the last 25 years, and she has helped me with a variety of health challenges in that time. I think she is very knowledgeable, and a true healer! Here are just a few of my experiences with her: It's important to start by saying that I grew up in a family where chiropractors were viewed with suspicion, at best. In spite of slipping on some black ice at age 10 or 11, resulting in a fractured coccyx ('tailbone') - which caused sharp pains, weakness and other scary symptoms off and on for years afterward - chiropractic care was never considered. Finally, in my mid-twenties, after suffering with sciatic pain for an entire year, a friend suggested that I give chiropractic a try. I was skeptical but since I had known Dr. Hausrath in college, and her office was nearby, I went to see her. The first thing that impressed me was her common-sense explanation of how and why chiropractic worked. Nevertheless, I was still rather dubious - until 6 or 8 weeks after I started treatment, at which point my sciatic pain went away. 25 years later, it has yet to return. I really believe that Dr. Hausrath cured me! Since that initial experience, Dr. Hausrath has helped me heal from all sorts of things, ranging from injuries to chronic pain from poor posture or incorrect movement, such as: - painful neck twinges (from holding a telephone handset against my shoulder) - recurring sinus congestion and pain (due to allergies) - upper back pain and shortness of breath from a rib getting pushed out of place from violent coughing while sick with bronchitis - "tennis elbow", the result of carrying heavy bags without providing sufficient muscle support - low back pain for a year in my late 40's due to a bulging disc (following a program of regular exercises, stretches, and chiropractic care, in combination with physical therapy, the disc pain disappeared) ...and the list goes on. With each instance, Dr. Hausrath has explained what's going on (or what I'm doing wrong!), and then she has shown me what I can do to make it right, providing me with the necessary tools (stretches, exercises, a pillow to support my neck during sleep, and so forth) to help me heal. When regular chiropractic adjustments are called for to get something back where it belongs - and keep it there - she lets me know. Last year, I was in a hurry, and picked up a large box the wrong way - and my back actually went OUT. The pain was scary. Knowing what she would recommend, I applied ice quickly, and I was able to see Dr. Hausrath the next day; I was doing much better after two or three weeks, following several treatments, and after doing the stretches and exercises she advised me to do. Within two months, I was completely back to my normal activities and had nearly forgotten that my back had gone out just two months before. Besides her chiropractic knowledge and skill, Dr. Hausrath is a healer who genuinely cares for her patients. Over the years, I've recommended her to several of my friends, and all have told me what wonderful care they received from her. I especially like recommending her to people who are, like I once was, skeptical about chiropractic care. One final note: There are a couple of top-notch massage therapists who work in the office! Elizabeth and Rita are each experienced and skilled masseuses. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Hausrath (Dr. Lynn!) since about 1987. I received a coupon for a free evaluation in the mail in a ValPak, and thought I would try chiropractic. My mom had had a really bad experience with chiropractic when I was a kid, and she warned me away. I thought I would give it a try anyway, and met with Dr. Lynn. At the time I was a very active competitor in Judo, and I felt that if I kept my spine aligned it would help me in my competitions and work outs. My idea was that an aligned spine is less likely to be injured (and by extension other body parts would be safer), and, if there was an injury, a healthy spine would heal better. Dr. Lynn said my theory was a sound one, and she kept me competing and working out for many years! I have also seen Elizabeth and Rita, the massage therapists, for various muscular aches and pains, and they have both been GREAT! I remember several times barely being able to walk, only to feel better after seeing them! One caveat about chiropractic and massage, though: Everyone reacts to treatment differently, and sometimes relief is not felt for a couple of days, and sometimes you need more than one session for relief. Please keep that in mind before you decide it doesn't work! I injured my back at work, and the treatments given my Dr. Lynn, Rita, and Elizabeth helped me heal. I will never fully be 100%; however, if it were not for them I suspect I would have had to rely on pain meds more often than I do. Dr. Lynn has been very successful in recruiting her staff, and Brittany is a gem. I have seen her fill holes in the schedule in a moment's notice, professionally and charmingly. She has fit me and my husband in on more than one occasion when our "owies" couldn't wait! Oh, yes, one more thing: When I started going to the office, I lived 5 minutes away. Now I live 40 minutes away and STILL go there! In summary, Dr. Haurath, Elizabeth, and Rita will keep you going, keep you active, and keep you young! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Hausrath for almost 12 years now. After being hit by a drunk driver I had horrible back and neck pain-she treated me and got me back to feeling great. I come in for the needed adjustment every so often due to having back & neck pain with having a new baby and being up througout the night. Dr. Hausrath is very honest, loving, professional and has a big heart for her patients. If you are having pain give Lynn a try! The extra plus to this office is the receptionist Britt...she's not only pretty, she's also VERY friendly. You can also enjoy a relaxing massage by one of the massage therapists. It's a one stop get rid of pain clinic! The whole office atmosphere is awesome, calm and loving. Give Hausrath Chiropractic a try! read more

After years of feeling like my hips were out of alignment and an annoying popping hip issue, I visited Dr. Hausrath for a consultation. She confirmed that my pelvis was indeed out of alignment and that I had was is called "snapping hip syndrome". She recommended that I get some alignments done as well as stretch specific muscles. Dr. Lynn is extremely honest and you can tell she cares deeply about the healing and well-being of her clients. As a person who has doubted the efficacy of chiropractic care for my whole life, it is amazing that I am now telling all my friends that they need to go to Dr. Lynn to get checked out! After about a month of seeing Dr. Lynn, I can say that I am definitely feeling positive change. My pelvic alignment is much better. Every time I get adjusted I instantly feel like a million bucks, my energy levels double! I would highly recommend Dr. Lynn Hausrath to anyone wanting a healthier body system. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Hausrath for the last 10 or 11 years. I was referred to her by a friend of mine whose family had been seeing her for years. Some of the issues she's been able to help me out with: * I was in my mid-twenties when my back went out during a casual game of hoop. I was literally in the fetal position as I laid on the court trying to get comfortable. Luckily, my friend who knew Dr. Hausrath was playing with me and told me to call her immediately. I waited until the next morning to see if my back would straighten on its own (not figuring I would need any outside assistance). When I was unable to straighten up in the morning (of course) I gave the office a call and Dr. Hausrath saw me right away. Always a bit skeptical of chiropractors, I was a bit apprehensive when I walked (crawled) into the office that day, but my initial consultation with Dr. Hausrath totally put me at ease. She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and explained in great detail what was going on with my back. She suggested that I see her a few times a week for a couple of weeks and said that my back should start straightening up again and feeling better soon. I started noticing a difference after the first session and after a few sessions with her the tension in my back that was causing my back to spasm totally went away. * I have had two ACL reconstructive surgeries and was experiencing some soreness in one of my knees. After a few sessions with her and diligently doing the exercises she suggested, my knee began to feel much much better. * I tweaked my neck one morning while towel drying my hair (seriously). After the initial embarrassment subsided and I worked up the nerve to schedule an appointment to tell her about it, she was able to work out the kinks and heal me of the pain I was experiencing (not as uncommon an "injury" as one would think, btw). As someone said earlier... the list goes on and on. I have been seeing Dr. Hausrath for monthly checkups ever since that initial appointment. Other great things about the office: * Massage therapy with either Elizabeth or Rita is fantastic. * The office staff has consistently been wonderful. From Jenny when I first started coming to Nika to Brittni, they've all been super friendly, helpful, and professional. * Love the monthly newsletters. Last thing: I don't hesitate to refer my friends to Dr. Hausrath whenever the topic of chiropractic comes up (which is actually pretty often). A ton of my friends see her regularly and we all rave about her. I am infinitely blessed that my friend referred me to her years ago. read more
