Dr. Rachel Sparks, DC
The core of Dr. Rachel Sparks’ beliefs has not changed in the years since opening ICT Muscle & Joint Clinic. She still considers movement to be of the highest priority. Operating a small business is constantly eye-opening regarding all the pieces needing addressed to help it run well. Eventually, Dr. Sparks stepped back from a primary treating clinician to managing the non-treating roles within ICT MJC and being active in family life.
Drs. Keith and Rachel Sparks have 3 young children. The process of human development is incredible, and she now has had a front row seat watching her kids learn to move. They innately know what patterns to practice, and their small bodies do not give up even after repeated failures. Instilling the love of movement at their young ages brings Dr. Sparks great joy, and it reaffirms the role we are trying to fill within healthcare of the greater Wichita area.
Dr. Sparks was born and raised in Wichita, KS. She was active in the figure skating community, competing and coaching private and group lessons for many years. Dr. Sparks attended Newman University and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in biology. She then moved to Kansas City to achieve her Doctor of Chiropractic from Cleveland University. It was there that Dr. Sparks’ eyes were fully open to the marvel that is biomechanics of the human body. Not enough attention is paid to movement and the art of helping people return to better movement and health.
There are so many contributing factors to human health, and they do not involve multiple prescription medications. In the past couple years, the world has been forced to confront the failing healthcare standards set for us. Life should not be simply surviving but prospering in your own body. Proper sleep, nutrition and movement are vital steppingstones to achieve your best humanity. We at ICT Muscle & Joint Clinic will do everything we are able to educate you on proper movement strategies and if you combine that with healthy habits at home; the Wichita community will be unstoppable!
