There are many digestive symptoms that can be related to neural dysfunction and regulation. Conditions including heartburn, constipation, hiatus hernia, amongst others have been shown to respond to chiropractic care with techniques including AK. The digestive tract is a muscle and needs healthy nerve function and tone to function optimally. Sometimes through trauma, stress, microtrauma there can be disruptions to neural function in the spine that lead to dysregulated nerve flow to the digestive tract. Depending on the nerve components affected symptoms can vary from constipation to irritable bowel syndrome and many others. It is crucial to address the cause of the problem rather than just treating the symptoms with medication or ignoring them. A chiropractor can do a thorough evaluation of spinal/nerve function to assess whether you are experiencing nerve dysfunction which may be possibly related to your symptoms.
Digestive Disturbances
Started seeing Dr. Lisa a few years ago. I was taken by her more analytical approach to chiropractic, a more intuitive, "feeling the body's energy" type of approach. Some of her adjustments have been more gentle than others I've experienced, yet achieving the same, comforting results. She's also accommodating if my schedule changes, with adequate results. I'd recommend her!! 🙂

I never went to a chiropractor before having severe back issues during pregnancy. I was referred to Lisa and have been going to her for the last 5 years. She is kind and thoughtful, she meets the patients at their point of need and never pushes you beyond your comfort zone. I highly recommend Kinetic Chiropractic!

I've seen Dr. Lisa Koenig consistently over the last 8 years and don't know what i would do without her. As an arborist tree climber with my own tree company my job is extremely physical and creates the need for regular adjustments. She is incredibly intuitive and able to pin point not only the symptom but finds the cause and corrects the issue(s). If she can keep me out of pain and working everyday she can certainly do the same for you. She has helped with skeletal alignment, causes if allergies, and everything in between. I have sent many of my friends and family to her and recommend her to everyone. She is cure all what ever ails you.

I've been seeing Lisa for years and she has consistently done an excellent job of keeping my body in alignment. I've seen her for a shoulder that's been out of whack and for a lower back issue, and she's helped both relieve the pain and give me exercises to strengthen the muscle groups. I highly recommend her!

My family have all been clients of Dr. Lisa for many years. She is very knowledgable and experienced in both Chiropractic and Applied Kinesiology but also brings a very intuitive element to her practice. She has helped with sports injuries, post-op recovery, aging issues, TMJ, and so much more. She is an essential part of our health care team.

I have been seeing Lisa for 5 months now off and on when i end up hurting myself at the gym or playing sports. She is not the normal cookie cutter Chiro. She takes the time to better understand what the problem is, and work on help underlining issues. Her able to dive into multiple facets that are causing one source of pain are so unique from the other chiro's i have seen in the past. I always end up feeling better walking out of there than walking in.

My kids and I have been coming to Dr. Lisa for over ten years and she's fantastic to work with. She has really helped us in terms of determining what is going on with stomach pains and other issues that my son has had over the years, as well as making more traditional chiropractic adjustments along the way. Highly recommended!

Lisa has been helping my whole family for years. She has helped us deal with anxiety, food allergies, parasites, tailbone injuries and whiplash. And in between all the drama she promotes our over all wellness. She is a gifted adjuster and her knowledge of applied kinesiology really adds an incredible extra tool to her ability to diagnose and manage care effectively. There is a touch of the magical to Lisa's work and I am grateful to have her on our health team!

Lisa is the best chiropractor I have visited, and I have visited many. She has been able to help me with many physical ailments and has always been able to improve my condition. I couldn't ask for a better chiropractor.

I recommend Lisa to anyone I know who is in pain. No matter how many doctor you've seen, if you're still suffering, you need to see her. She efficiently discovers the root of your pain, and fixes you. I found her 20 years after breaking my back in a car accident. I used to have to wear a tens unit any time I flew in an airplane. Now I don't even know where the unit is. And I am wearing high heels - something my pre-Lisa body could never do.

Lisa Koenig is miraculous! She is a true healer. There aren't enough positive adjectives to give her as she has saved me from acute pain and serious disease. Expect your life to change for the positive after seeing Lisa Koenig!

A month ago Dr. Lisa is as good as it gets! She is very attentive and makes sure all of your symptoms are addressed. She treats your body as a whole rather than just treating the individual problem areas. My whole family sees her, she's MAGIC!!

Lisa has been my and my pups go to person for alignment and support. I have to say that I have never enjoyed someone who obviously cared for me AND my Golden Retrievers the way she has done. Sadly we have moved to the east coast and when we experienced trauma with my female golden having cancer (we lost her this week) and my male breaking a leg, she has steadfastly supported me late into the night, sending ideas and now some remedies for my boy. Caring, competent and collaborative. Love her.

Lisa has been treating me on and off for 15 years and this review is long overdue! Anytime I have a problem in my body that isn't resolving quickly, I go visit Lisa. Her expert care, intuitive hands, and spot on adjustments have kept me thriving and doing the activities I love most. I broke my arm in a mountain bike crash a few years ago and she helped unwind a problem I was having with my rotator cuff that was affecting my ability to work and sleep comfortably. These days, while I still rely on Lisa to help pick me up from whatever disaster I've gotten myself into, I can say that regular chiropractic care has made all the difference on a day to day basis. I'm a better friend, partner, and colleague as a result. I give Lisa my highest of recommendations.
