No. Chiropractic Biophysics Spinal correction is more like doing a stretch for a long time. It can be uncomfortable, but it is tailored to how much you are able to tolerate.
As the leading chiropractor clinic in Urbandale, we offer Chiropractic Biophysics structural rehab, biologic injections, and multi-therapy treatment plans designed to work when other treatments fail.
Years of Experience
As one of the top honors graduates from Palmer College of Chiropractic, Dr. Ruehle utilizes Chiropractic Biophysics which is a specialized, research-proven approach to remodeling the spine. By combining elite training under renowned experts with advanced certification, he focuses on the root cause of pain rather than just the symptoms.
Precision care for long-lasting spinal remodeling and relief.
Restoring proper alignment to unlock your body’s natural healing.
Most patients we see in Urbandale, IA have already tried medications, rest, or traditional chiropractic care—but their pain continues to return. That’s because the underlying structural issues or soft-tissue damage were never fully addressed.
We combine advanced structural chiropractic care (Chiropractic Biophysics) with orthobiologic injection therapies to address both alignment and tissue health—not just symptoms.
Services We Offer
Comprehensive physical, structural, and regenerative therapies engineered to restore your body when traditional care falls short.
Precision spinal adjustments designed to reduce nervous system interference, relieve pain, and restore your body’s natural mobility.
A highly specialized, evidence-based technique focused on structural rehabilitation to permanently correct and reshape spinal alignment.
Specialized structural remodeling setups used to gently guide the spine back toward its optimal, engineered curvature over time.
Targeted physical therapy exercises and movement training to stabilize weak muscle groups, protect joints, and prevent future re-injury.
Gentle, computerized traction that unloads disc pressure, promoting rapid nutrient flow and healing for herniations or sciatica.
Advanced regenerative therapy using your body’s concentrated platelets to accelerate healing in damaged tendons, ligaments, and joints.
Cutting-edge cellular therapy delivering structural proteins and growth factors to support deep tissue repair in severely degenerated joints.
Cellular photobiomodulation that reduces systemic inflammation, accelerates tissue healing, and boosts mitochondrial energy production.
Individually molded structural supports built from dynamic digital scans to correct your alignment, starting right from the ground up.
Breathing high-purity oxygen during light exercise to dramatically maximize tissue oxygenation, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery.
Advanced systemic oxygen-ozone therapy designed to supercharge the immune system, improve blood circulation, and neutralize pathogens.
What our patients say
What We Offer
What It Is
Chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and correcting misalignments in the spine and musculoskeletal system. Using hands-on adjustments and evidence-based techniques, our chiropractors restore proper joint mechanics, relieve nerve pressure, and support your body's natural healing processes — without surgery or medication.
Who It's For
Anyone experiencing back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint stiffness, or reduced mobility. Also ideal for individuals seeking proactive wellness care, injury recovery support, or improved posture and nervous system function at any age.
Benefits
What It Is
Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP) is the most research-backed chiropractic technique available, focused on restoring the spine's ideal alignment and curvature. Using precise postural analysis, mirror-image adjustments, and traction-based corrective exercises, CBP addresses the structural root cause of spinal problems rather than simply managing symptoms.
Who It's For
Individuals with chronic spinal issues, scoliosis, loss of cervical lordosis (military neck), degenerative disc disease, or those who have not found lasting relief with conventional chiropractic care. Best suited for patients committed to long-term structural correction.
Benefits
What It Is
Functional rehabilitation goes beyond pain relief to restore how your body actually moves. Through targeted therapeutic exercises, neuromuscular re-education, and movement pattern correction, we rebuild the strength, stability, and coordination needed for everyday life and athletic performance.
Who It's For
Patients recovering from injury, surgery, or chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Also beneficial for athletes looking to optimize performance or anyone experiencing recurring pain caused by movement dysfunction and muscle imbalances.
Benefits
What It Is
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical, traction-based treatment that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and pinched nerves. By creating negative intradiscal pressure, it promotes retraction of herniated or bulging disc material and encourages the flow of nutrients and hydration back into damaged discs.
Who It's For
Patients suffering from herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or chronic low back and neck pain who wish to avoid surgery or reduce dependence on pain medications.
Benefits
What It Is
PRP therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses your own blood's healing power. A small sample of your blood is drawn, processed to concentrate the platelet-rich plasma, and injected into damaged or inflamed tissue. The high concentration of growth factors stimulates your body's natural repair mechanisms at the cellular level.
Who It's For
Patients with joint pain, tendon injuries (such as tennis elbow or rotator cuff damage), osteoarthritis, ligament sprains, or those seeking to accelerate healing after musculoskeletal injury without surgery.
Benefits
What It Is
Wharton's Jelly is a substance derived from umbilical cord tissue, naturally rich in mesenchymal stem cells, growth factors, cytokines, and hyaluronic acid. When injected into damaged joints or tissues, it delivers a potent regenerative signal that supports cellular repair, reduces inflammation, and improves tissue integrity.
Who It's For
Patients with moderate to severe joint degeneration, osteoarthritis, chronic soft tissue injuries, or those who have not responded adequately to PRP or conventional therapies. Ideal for individuals seeking advanced regenerative medicine options.
Benefits
What It Is
Prolotherapy (Proliferative Therapy) involves the injection of a natural irritant solution — typically dextrose — into damaged ligaments, tendons, or joints. This controlled stimulus triggers a localized healing response, prompting your body to produce new collagen and strengthen weakened connective tissue over a series of treatments.
Who It's For
Patients with chronic joint instability, partially torn ligaments or tendons, low back pain caused by lax connective tissue, or sports-related injuries that have not healed with rest and conservative treatment alone.
Benefits
What It Is
Red Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation) delivers specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light deep into the body's tissues. These wavelengths are absorbed by the mitochondria in your cells, boosting cellular energy production (ATP), reducing oxidative stress, and accelerating the body's natural repair and recovery processes.
Who It's For
Patients dealing with chronic pain, inflammation, slow-healing wounds, joint conditions, skin concerns, or fatigue. Also popular among athletes for accelerated recovery and anyone seeking a non-invasive tool for cellular health and anti-aging support.
Benefits
What It Is
Custom orthotics are precisely crafted shoe inserts made from a detailed analysis of your foot mechanics, gait, and posture. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, our orthotics are designed specifically for your body to correct biomechanical imbalances that cause pain and dysfunction from the ground up.
Who It's For
Individuals with flat feet, high arches, plantar fasciitis, heel pain, knee pain, hip or low back discomfort linked to postural imbalance, or anyone whose work or lifestyle demands prolonged time on their feet.
Benefits
What It Is
EWOT involves performing light to moderate exercise while breathing high-concentration oxygen through a specialized mask and reservoir system. The combination of elevated oxygen levels and increased circulation during exercise dramatically enhances oxygen delivery to tissues throughout the body, supporting energy production and cellular repair.
Who It's For
Patients recovering from illness or injury, those with chronic fatigue, poor circulation, compromised immune function, or anyone wanting to maximize the benefits of exercise and accelerate their path to optimal health and peak energy levels.
Benefits
What It Is
Major Autohemotherapy (MAH) Ozone Therapy is an intravenous treatment in which a small volume of your blood is drawn, infused with medical-grade ozone gas, and returned to your body. The ozonated blood activates powerful antioxidant enzymes, modulates the immune system, and delivers a surge of bioavailable oxygen to every system in the body.
Who It's For
Patients dealing with chronic infections, Lyme disease, autoimmune conditions, viral illness, fatigue syndromes, or those seeking a systemic approach to detoxification, immune regulation, and longevity-focused healthcare.
Benefits
At Advanced Spine Health Center we specialized in the physics of the spine. Your spine is meant to have a very specific structure and shape. When you lose the shape of your spine, or its normal resting posture, it often leads to different problems such as pain, disc bulges, arthritis, nerve pinching or irritation and a general decrease in health and quality of life. This is what we are here to correct and improve through chiropractic biophysics care.
The best way to get started is to call our office and schedule a consultation or your initial examination. We start every patient with a thorough examination to help determine the root cause of the problem. Only after the examination are we able to give good recommendations as to how to treat it.
Most insurance companies will cover some portion of the care. It really depends on your plan as to what is covered and for how long. If your insurance does not cover it, our office accepts PCD which is only $37 for an entire year (for the whole family) and it allows you to get 25-90% discounts on every service we provide.
Don’t ever let your insurance dictate your health. Your health and quality of life are much more important then your copay. We will always try to work with you to get you the care you need.
The cost of your chiropractic biophysics care depends mostly on 3 things:
All of these play a role in how long your care will take and therefore the cost. After the examination the doctor will sit down to explain the different options you have and what they would recommend out of those options. In the end, it is always your decision as to how we move forward.
Our average patient spends just over an hour in the office during each visit and we see them on average 3 times a week for 3 months.
Not all options require this much time, but correcting the spine is a lot like braces correcting teeth. It takes time to make the changes we want to see.

If there is one body part that most people seem to have problems with at some point in life, it must be the back. Back pain is such a common part of modern life that many people just accept it as normal and try to get by as best they
WHAT EXACTLY IS SCIATICA? Sciatica in Urbandale is the irritation of a nerve in our bodies called the sciatic nerve. Although it sounds like only one nerve, five separate nerves come together to form the sciatic nerve. We each have two sciatic nerves, one on the left and one on the
