Local Stories

Today we’d like to introduce you to Christopher Rechter.

Christopher, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
As a child, the first thing I ever said I was “going to be when I grew up” was a chiropractor. So, it’s fitting that after exploring many options, I landed here as a practicing chiropractor, now in my 18th year. I attended Penn State University for my undergraduate degree, then received my doctorate from Life University in GA, before starting my private practice, HealthQuest Chiropractic Center. HealthQuest is a family, wellness practice, specializing in sport and injury care, extremity problems, and spinal disc issues utilizing non-surgical spinal decompression therapy.

We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
As with any business, there are challenges to overcome and growths to experience. Much of owning a business is not or cannot, be taught in school. Enduring the tests of time and life’s lessons prove invaluable. Understanding that a successful business is about building relationships, has been a vital key to our growth and retention. Building a strong team of employees has not always been easy, but has improved with each new hire. Implementing new services to expand our ability to help people has been important. Focusing on our exceptional customer service, our expanding and excellent clinical care, having efficient procedures, and a comfortable environment have helped us weather any storms and rise above any outside negative trends or forces. We are excited about our direction and the future.

So, as you know, we’re impressed with HealthQuest Chiropractic Center – tell our readers more, for example what you’re most proud of as a company and what sets you apart from others.
HealthQuest is a family, wellness center, caring for the community through a holistic approach offering chiropractic care, non-surgical spinal decompression, nutrition, massage and exercise therapy, We serve people of all ages with a variety of conditions as well as providing preventative care. While health centers, fitness centers, health coaches, chiropractors, and other health offices have come and gone we have remained and grown and now enter into our 18th year in practice. For this we are proud. One niche area where we are very proud of our success, and something that differentiates us, is our non-surgical solution for disc problems and the related symptoms (neck/back pain, sciatica, numbness/tingling extremities, stenosis, failed surgery). Our total back recovery system, utilizing chiropractic, traction, exercise, massage, and nutrition has had tremendous results with suffering patients. Another specialty of expertise that we offer that many other chiropractors do not, is extremity adjustments to correct sports, occupational, or other injuries to an extremity. We provide quality time with our patients and believe educating people to help them better understand their problem pays big rewards in achieving better results with everyone. We also have a warm, inviting atmosphere and want to insure that everyone is treated like family.

So, what’s next? Any big plans?
We are always staying current with healthcare trends and looking for new ways to improve what we deliver. Our postgraduate studies are ongoing. We look for additional services to help even more people with more problems. Currently we are investigating the newer and growing field of stem cell therapy, as well as some advanced food sensitivity testing. We are also planning to acquire a new adjustment table which will provide additional features/techniques to what we already have. We are always inquisitive and always willing to change as time requires.
