ADVANCED CARE FOR EVERYONE

Under Dr. William Ruch’s pioneering biophysical chiropractic care, you will be considered in your entirety, as a whole person. Your entire past, present and intended future are taken into account when addressing your causes of, and treatment for, pain and injury. Using gentle, safe, and highly effective adjustment techniques, normal motion and alignment will be restored to your joints. This reduces pain, inflammation and movement limitation; allows the mind and nervous system to relax; and begins the healing process. Dr. Ruch has also pioneered a system for pregnant women to keep their pelvis level at home and throughout labor. Our patients and childbirth practitioners have had great results and report shorter and easier labors using this method. A simple guide is available on this method and we also hold seminars for certification in the Level Pelvis Method.

Advanced Care

We specialize in treating patients with single or multiple injuries, as well as those who are not candidates for traditional chiropractic manipulation.

Karamio M.

"I can't believe there are not a million reviews for Dr. Ruch and his amazing team of massage therapists. He is the primary reason I am functioning without pain in my arms, shoulders, ribs, back and legs. He has decades of experience and uses gentle effective techniques that he has honed and developed over his years of practice. The soft tissue work done before/after the adjustments makes the work even more effective. You will also get a good education about what's going on with your body as Dr Ruch is an educator as well as a master chiropractor. I have seen a lot of different health practitioners over the years, and he is the real deal when it comes to understanding joint dysfunction and pain."

"If you're considering chiropractic care, see Dr. Ruch. In 1982, I was 22 years old and in a horrific accident that made it impossible for me to stand, let alone walk for more than two hours. I began my therapy with Dr. Ruch and have now been able to live an active and employed life thanks to Dr. Ruch. What ever your pain, body ache, limp, or discomfort, Dr. Ruch can make it better."

Gautam G.

San Ramon, CA
"The difference between a good primary care physician and a great one is not that significant, but when one is talking about a chiropractic physician, it is huge. I have been seeing Dr. Ruch since 2008. He fixed a numbness in my arm accompanied by shooting pain in 2 visits. Since then he has rectified habits that caused the pain in the first place. If you have pain and want to avoid surgery (which may not help anyway), see Dr. Ruch. He is the best!"

Cynthia M.

"Dr. Ruch is not your average chiropractor. He has decades of teaching experience in anatomy and it shows. He knows and understands the body and has gently and skillfully adjusted not only my spine and hips, but also my feet, hands and lower legs. I like to visit as I need, or just to check that things are inline. As a massage therapist, this is very important for my health and longevity. He is truly amazing!"

"WHY DO I HURT?"

Dr. Ruch has developed gentle and full body chiropractic techniques, developed throughout his 30+ years of research and practice. He also offers an education series for the most common causes of pain!

The Body Has A Building Code

The need to modify my technique was made clear to me with my first patient in my new office in 1987. She was 36-years-old, walked with a cane, had persistent swollen legs and ankles, had not liked the “cracking” type of manipulation and was now giving up on the Activator Technique as ineffective. Before I […]

A Simple Change in Behavior can Help Stop Knee Pain

Our kindergarten students can squat without limit and our fifth graders cannot. Sitting in school shortens the muscles and ligaments of our hips, thighs and knees.

Knee Alignment Is More Important than You Think. So why isn’t it being taught to our medical professionals?

Knee problems can lead to major health problems for a person. Not just in terms of pain, but the limitations of activities that have the most negative effect on the body. Lack of activity eventually leads to deconditioning, depression, possible weight gain and increased degeneration. Almost every organ system is challenged as we go down this path. Heart, lungs, colon, bone density… nothing gets better with inactivity.
