Introducing Vancouver Chiropractor Dr. Derrick Hau


How I was Introduced to Nucca

I was in my first year of chiropractic school when the pain started. I was getting adjusted regularly, but experiencing no results. Eventually I tried physical therapy, and even moved on to medications, but only became more frustrated.  I was studying to become a chiropractor, and now my life was put on hold by a condition that chiropractic was supposed to treat.

One day a colleague of mine introduced me to an advanced school of chiropractic called NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropratic Association).  He told me that the NUCCA correction gently restores body balance, without popping or twisting the spine, which takes pressure off the nerves and allows the body to return to its natural, healthy state.  Just a week before finals, I drove three hours to see this NUCCA doctor. 

I needed a miracle. 

Immediately after the first visit I felt relief.  Over the course of my care, my health continued to improve--and, for the first time, the results lasted.  I was so impressed by the technique and its remarkable results that I moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma and embarked on a journey that would change my life, and eventually lead me here to the Northwest and specifically, Vancouver, Washingtion.


About the Doctor

Dr. Hau received his Doctorate in Chiropractic in 2003 from Palmer College in Davenport, Iowa, where he specialized in the NUCCA Technique.  He continued his Chiropractic training as an associate doctor at Brooks Spinal Care with Dr. Robert Brooks, the president of NUCCA.

In 2004, Dr. Hau selected the Northwest as the ideal location to create his own practice, Vancouver Spinal Care.  He was inspired by the health conscious community and numerous outdoor activities. 

 “Our mission,” says Dr. Hau, “is to introduce people to the little known but key concept of body balance, and its relationship to health. This is the essence of the NUCCA spinal correction, which is a painless and safe method to restore body balance, resolve health problems, and obtain optimal body function.”

 Dr. Derrick Asks some important questions of interest to Vancouver residents - Chiropractor Vancouver Dr. Derrick Asks...

How do you "catch" a cold?
Simply lower your resistance by avoiding the proper rest and exercise, eating lots of sugar and junk food, putting up with emotional stress and neglecting your nervous system by avoiding your chiropractor. You won't have to catch a cold because it will catch you!
Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
