Jennifer McNerney:

Welcome to the Ripple Effect. I am your host Jen McNerney, sharing the unfolding stories that made us and healed us.

Sexy Jen:

All right, today on the Ripple Effect podcast, I'm so excited to have my friend, a colleague, a mentor, somebody I look up to Dr. Jacquie Riser on today. She's the best. You're the best. Thank you for being here. Of course, I know we tried to record before and I had internet issues, but here we are. It's happening. And I wanna say that I know Jacquie from, gosh, it had to be maybe Montana. Montana, 20, 25

Jackie:

years. Oh, five years ago. Yeah, it's been

Sexy Jen:

five. Our five year friend anniversary. Yes. We met, yay. We met through neuro emotional technique and then we were also in the same, very small, oh my God. Our certification

Jackie:

class with 21 people.

Sexy Jen:

20 people or 21. I dunno what it was, but it was very small. Anyways, I have Dr. Jacquie Reiser here and would you say chiropractic kinesiologist? Yep. Or perfect. Exactly. And she, her practice is now in Austin, Texas. Yeehaw. Yeah. And the reason I have Jacquie on is, not because she's like an amazing healer and, when we go to these different NET seminars, you helped do mother daughter NET, which was so profound and oh, it was so

Jackie:

cool.

Sexy Jen:

Yeah. And so I wanna just pick your brain on all the things. Yes. Yeah. So I wanna, so a little background about you. What drew you to chiropractic school?

Jackie:

So I was a college softball player. I played a division one softball. And a lot of people don't realize when you live in different parts of the country, you can't take as many classes as like normal students because you're on a plane, like. All the time. So like my week would be, we would practice Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, actually no, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday morning we would leave on a plane. Thursday night, we'd play Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and then come back Sunday night, have Monday off, and then practice Tuesday, Wednesday, and then do it again. From February, March, April, in the middle of May. So for three and a half months you would do that. So what happened was I finished playing softball, my eligibility ran out. You get four years. What the Big 10 Conference does is if anybody, regardless of what kind of scholarship you're on, like they'll pay for your, it's called your fifth year, which you are no longer eligible to play college athletics, but you work for the university in some. Way to keep your scholarship. So I had a fifth year where, um, that was, uh, the biggest blessing'cause I could really figure out okay, like what's the next step? Because my whole life up until that point, like I'll never forget it. I always thought the worst day of my life was gonna be the last time I would take off my cleats. Hmm. And it wasn't. And it wasn't nearly as all. There was so much more life out there to be, had more experiences to be had. Um, it, so I had this whole year to figure out what I wanted to do while I was finishing up my kinesiology degree. I got a BS in kinesiology and, uh, what else? Uh, something health promotion, whatever that means. That's okay. BS in kinesiology. So I thought I wanted to stay in college athletics and be a strength and conditioning coach and potentially go into being a collegiate softball coach. But regardless of what happened in my career, I realized that. Luckily, like that's not what I was passionate about anymore. There was new dreams to be fulfilled. So I was looking into physical therapy, but that was just maybe just the physical therapist I shadowed. It was just wasn't, my. Persona, I guess. And, I have a good friend, his name is Alex Halstead. He is an upper cervical doctor in Chicago. He, we went to Michigan State together, and he goes to me, Jacquie, like, why don't you look at being chiropractor? And I literally told Alex, I go, Alex, that is dumb. My back doesn't hurt. Why would I be a chiropractor? And then he goes, you can do so much with it. You were so naive. And I, and then he was right. He was a hundred percent correct. So mm-hmm. Something came over me and I went to go see the doctor that he interned with. And the doctor sat me down and they literally explained what chiropractic was, what he did for a living, and invited me back the next day to shadow. And he was a full spine doc. He did. Gonstead, a great doctor. His name is Dr. Tyson Carter. He is in Lansing, Michigan. I'll never forget it, I came back the next day to shadow. So excited. The first person, the first adjustment I've ever seen in my life, and the first person I've ever seen, like adjusted in front of me. He adjusted her neck. And I just saw the life come back to her and I was like, that's it. That is it. That is what I'm supposed to do. Wow. So, and that, that was the moment I figured it out. And it's amazing because, Dr. Carter was like, there's so many different techniques out there. And I remember him saying there's something called applied kinesiology. And had no idea what that was. And he goes, you go to Life University. That's where I went to chiropractic school. And you figure out what you wanna do. You don't have to do what I do. You don't have to do what this chiropractor does. So I went to Life

Sexy Jen:

Is life in Georgia or is it

Jackie:

uh, yeah. Yeah. Marriott, Georgia, right outside the city. It's awesome. Cute town. A great place to go to school. Nice and warm. It's cold in Georgia. Yeah. Um, but yeah, so that's how I be got to chiropractic. But because what you and I do, it's so the, the niches in our. Fields, right? It's very like, not all, you know, not all speech and language pathologists do what you do, right? All not all chiropractors do what I do. And, I went to school with the idea that I was going to adjust a hundred people a week, plus I'm gonna adjust every bone in the body and everyone's gonna feel that much better. I went to. School and the clubs are really cool in chiropractic school. And one of my friends, my friend Doug, he just kept bringing me back to Applied Kinesiology Club. I had no idea what the hell was going on, but everybody was so nice to me. Yeah. And just lovely. So I didn't even mind You didn't

Sexy Jen:

think it, you didn't think it looked weird?

Jackie:

No, I didn't. I was. Like these people are nice. Whatever this is. It's muscle testing stuff. Yeah. It's resonating with me. Whatever switching is, it's resonating with me. Yeah. So I signed up for my first a hundred hours course, which is like the foundation. So we all have a foundation and the a hundred hour course is the foundation to all what I say, to all manual muscle testing techniques. Yeah. So I go to this hundred hour course. Actually the night before my entire life I had, I've had anaphylactic pollen allergies.

Sexy Jen:

Oh wow. Really bad. I didn't know that. I

Jackie:

didn't know that. And, you know, the only thing that works is Benadryl at the time because you can't have an anaphylactic reaction if you're passed out. That's what I tell everybody. That is true. It's true. Right? That's true. Right. But the night before I was, I almost had to go to the emergency room'cause my throat was starting to close up from the pollen. And luckily like, you know, time and place for conventional medicine, we're grateful for the Benadryl. Sure.

Sexy Jen:

We are grateful for conventional medicine. We're

Jackie:

we're grateful. And, I literally. Which we call it. I, I think I took about four because it was so bad and I called my mom. My mom's a, she's a retired nurse now, but she was worried about me, you know?'cause you call mom and dad when something's wrong. You

Sexy Jen:

do always, even when you're in your almost 50.

Jackie:

Yeah, exactly. And my friends were like, you know, you should go to the er. I'm like, I think this Benadryl will. And it did. I woke up the next day. It rained luckily. But when you have allergies and it rains, it's really nice under your body. Because you can just breathe little bit. You could feel the

Sexy Jen:

air being cleansed and all the things washed out.

Jackie:

Mm-hmm. So I go to the course, I'm still struggling my eye. I looked like I hadn't slept, which I probably didn't. I had to sleep sitting up so my throat wouldn't close up. And the mucus, it was so bad. And the doctor, Dr. JJ Gregor, who's now my mentor, looked at me and goes, yeah. Basically, what the hell happened to you? And I explained it. He goes, come up here. So in front of the whole class he starts checking different muscles. So in applied kinesiology, your pectoralis minor muscle is a big lymphatic muscle. Mm-hmm. It's related bacterial lymphatic system. So he starts working in my pec minor and then on my, your sternocleidomastoid, that's mastoid that's related back to your sinus. Sinuses and, applied kinesiology and traditional Chinese medicine. So he starts working on that and he gives me one supplement. He goes, take 20 of these today. And I was like, 20. And I, I actually, no, I didn't even hesitate. I was like, yeah, sure. This is gonna make me feel better. I go home, I go to sleep, I wake up and my signs and symptoms of my like. Anaphylactic ness and the sinuses, it was like 40% reduced and overnight.

Sexy Jen:

Wow. And it was,

Jackie:

that's the difference between having to take any sort of like Benadryl because growing up, Zyrtec, nothing, none, none of that worked. Nothing touched it. It was only Benadryl or nothing. For the longest time. And it, I remember I called my mom and I was like, you know, I don't know exactly what I'm doing in terms of whatever this muscle testing stuff is. Or I don't really understand like the premise yet. I was like, but this is what I'm supposed to do, and I don't know why

Sexy Jen:

at the time. And then

Jackie:

I remember calling her, I was like, this is what I'm supposed to do is because I just had this life changing treatment overnight with this, and it's not like that for everyone, but for me. But you had me on,

Sexy Jen:

that's usually how. It works for me. Like, like I, I'll have to have like a neon like, oh my gosh. And then sometimes it just doesn't make sense. It's just great intuition.

Jackie:

Yes. It, it didn't at the time and I was literally like, I have no idea what I'm doing. I don't know the thought process behind applied kinesiology and all these adjunct techniques, but I'm like, I'm supposed to do this'cause this shows me it literally. Chose me to learn and be passionate about what I do was learning then. Yeah. So I could have that influence on someone else who, you know, suffers like I did. Yeah. And not even just with the allergies, it ended up being like what we do with any teeth. Like, I was like, I'm never doing emotions. And my friend, chance Johnson, he's in, he is just a little bit outside of Nashville, I think, or Chattanooga. I think there is. Yeah. He did NET on me one day and I had to go home from school and I couldn't stop crying. I went to bed, I woke up and whatever that motion was at that time, and it was something I was gonna therapy for at the time, like it really didn't bother me nearly as much as it did after that first session of NET.

Sexy Jen:

Right. You had to have another, that's the thing is like I didn't, I didn't know what it was until Dr. John Wendt did it on me, and then Yes. And then. All my supplements, I didn't, I'm such an emotional person, so mm-hmm. All of everything started to shift once I found the emotional work. So Yes, yes.

Jackie:

It literally changes your, your physiology and your body. Yes. When you can release this. So that's how, like I started with NET and then, you know, I applied kinesiologist as my foundation and then I started branching out into these other techniques like quantum neurology, which you're familiar with. You do. Yes. That's absolutely is like mind

Sexy Jen:

blowing. I know. Absolutely. And I only Absolutely. And I only know so little, like what I, I could be delving more into it, but it is pretty profound, even a little bit that I know. Mm-hmm. But tell me like, you see all ages, all different, all ages. You see, uh, sports injuries, kids, kids on the spectrum. Yep. See? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Like what is your primary, like primarily right now, your practice like Yeah, I'm sure it ebbs and flows, right. People who find you for sure.

Jackie:

A hundred percent. So like, one of just being an athlete, that's what, you know. So I'm very much like, I treat tons of different types of athletes at all levels, which is awesome. But I never thought I would be a pediatric chiropractor in a million years.

Sexy Jen:

Really?

Jackie:

Yeah. And that's

Sexy Jen:

so funny'cause you keep

Jackie:

attracting those kids. All of them. Because I, I grew up with, a pretty, a significant learning disability as well. Slight dyslexia and obviously Oh, I didn't know

Sexy Jen:

that. Yeah,

Jackie:

yeah. Um, you know, I think A DHD is more of like, I think it's just my personality and I love it.

Sexy Jen:

I do too. I have it too. That's probably why I love you so much.'cause I'm like exactly the

Jackie:

vibe, you know? So, but I, I truly believe you know. There's a reason for who you are and the type of people you attract. I, I had the hardest time in school growing up. I remember my mom emailed my, my second grade teacher. She goes, I'm not losing my relationship with my daughter over your math homework. Like, you know, kudos to your mama, mama

Sexy Jen:

Reiser. Good job Mama Reiser

Jackie:

is the best. Yeah. And, but it's like, it's great because there, I remember just having so much help from, the, it's called like special education, essentially that's what it's called in New York State. Um, having a IEP mm-hmm. Like those are the teachers that really believe in you and no one else does. Mm-hmm. When you don't even believe in yourself and the aides in the classroom. And I got so much help. And then I, I don't know, I just started working with some, I think it happened. It always takes one. Right. It just takes a spark. And I, I think I had this little boy who I still treat today, and I just, and he came in, I think, honestly, I think he might have came in for like some stomach stuff. And then his mom was telling me about like his A DHD and learning, and I was like, oh, like his brain. And we just gotta like, you know, gotta just change some pathways. We just gotta change the way our nerves are, our neurons are firing and we can do that with quantum neurology and apply kinesiology and NET. It was just, it started with him and I now, it's one of my favorite things I get to do, especially like when, a kid who's just feels so hopeless and parents that feel so hopeless. And, can you speak

Sexy Jen:

with your expertise on the low level red light that quantum neurology uses and like Yes. Why, why is that so effective and so quick to like, rehabilitate the cranial nerves and how the brain fires? Yes.

Jackie:

So what the red light does is actually activating different meridian points. So all of different yang meridians begin end the face, but a lot of them go kind of straight through the back of the head too. So I actually have my little acupuncture man here. We love him. Oh, I love him. Yes. So obviously look at those, the listeners can't see, but Oh, they can't. They'll be, yeah.

Sexy Jen:

See

Jackie:

if they watch. Oh, they cool. Yeah. That's awesome. So there's tons of acupuncture meridians that go through the back of the neck. So with the GRT, why you just light up where the cerebellum is?'cause you're affecting the acupuncture meridian system, which is the subway as NET would say, in and out, upside down your body. Yeah. So the low red light does if you perform an action and light up the meridian connectors and the meridian system as well, it has that influence on the brain. And what I, in general, like all red light. All but they're using a laser light, not just, just with the GRT light, with, you know, fringe light panels. Mm-hmm. It's called photo biomodulation therapy, and it's literally a fancy way of saying that red light can heal the body. Mm-hmm. That's

Sexy Jen:

it's light sets. I, I knew you're gonna be able to, like, simplify it for people. Yeah. I,

Jackie:

I hate, okay. Actually, no. I love biochemistry and physiology and I love understanding why something's happening, but like. I've literally had patients say, yeah, I don't care what you do. Like I know you help me and like you can, you can twiddle your thumbs and sing Kumbaya, and if it would help me, I'm here, Jacquie. And I'm like, cool. Yeah. So yeah, I like to keep it simple. So it's. The way of changing the way our cells are functioning at the cellular level by giving it energy through the red light, the photo, my photobiomodulation.

Sexy Jen:

Okay. And like what is the difference between the, microcurrent that you use?

Jackie:

Yeah, so f this is also what I use. This is all like so many we call, call frequency

Sexy Jen:

tools, right? Yeah. We have all this. Technology that it can actually support

Jackie:

us so much. It's so great. So I use frequency specific Microcurrent. FSM is what it's called as well for so many different conditions. So with my ASD kids, um, my, my ADHD kids, everybody on that level too. My athletes, it's amazing for a tissue regeneration. I use it for people who have severe anxiety, um, to too. And if you think about a tool that you can literally use an. Any different type of person who comes in your office? Um, I use it on myself, like, so my allergies instead of about 30 reactions a year. If I'm outside too long in the spring, I'll have a, I, I'll flare up a little bit, so I just kind of stay away from outside sometimes in the springtime. Sure. But like this year I was outside for a little too long. I went to a bull riding event, very Texas of me. Um, and I, I ran some nine is the frequency for allergy. Wow. So I ran 9 0 0 on channel two and it just. Calm down the histamine response in my body. Get those ma mast cells to be like, yo, chill. So what it is exactly, there's a frequency for everything, from the water in our bodies to the water we drink, to the food we eat, to, you know, tissue healing, inflammation. So what it exactly it is, you have two channels, channel A and B. Channel A is what's going on, and channel B is the tissue. So if I had a swollen ankle I could run 40. For inflammation and 3 96. 3 96, I believe off the top of my head is either nor a nerve or a joint capsule. I just can't remember off the top of head. That's okay. And I wouldn't expect you to. Yeah. So what exactly it does, it's everything again, has a frequency and. Frequencies travel through waves. So we think of like a wave, literally like in school, like a sign wave and, or like, um, yeah, that's just an example square wave. Mm-hmm. There's all the different types

Sexy Jen:

of waves. Yeah. The 3,6,9 wave, so,

Jackie:

yep. So everyone thinks like tens units, so that those are also resonate at a specific frequency. But with the microcurrent it's at a, a literally micro, micro. Yep. Yep. So it's at a millionth out of an amp here. So that's the, the frequency for like energy and current. Yeah. So instead of like this, like this makes noise. So you put a tens unit on this is what you feel that, like, that current going into your tissue, but it's just superficial. That's why people feel like no pain for a little bit after you get like a tens unit treatment because it's just numbing the area. It's just like blocking that nociception for a little bit. What the microcurrent does, it actually travels into the, your tissue at the cellular level, uhhuh and actually can heal your body. And there's been research when it does, it allows the cell membrane channel to open, um, and actually change the receptor site.

Sexy Jen:

Yeah. And create

Jackie:

more energy. Um, when we talk about a TP joint phosphate all the time, energy this, energy that, yes, yes. But the studies that have been done with frequencies specific microcurrent has increased energy reproduction in the body by 500%. That's insane.

Sexy Jen:

Wow. Yeah.

Jackie:

And without energy, you can't do much, including healing. Right, right. You don't have the energy to heal. Mm-hmm. Yeah. It's just incredible. It's. They, it's so special. Um, and it's, I remember the first time I ever used it, the immediate results that I saw, it was just, I, I was like, I have to learn this. I have to understand why this works. I have, I've sold so many of the units. Oh, have, yeah. Yeah. Um, my patients love them. My dad has his own.

Sexy Jen:

Yeah. I think I need to be buying one from you just because. The same premise of like, um, myofascial release, which I'm studying right now is like Right. Be the crystalline structure that's in our connective tissues. That's like all the wa That's why the, the frequency works. It's like opening. Oh, if you don't have the cells open or if it's dark Yep. The light can't get in. Uh, yes, exactly. It's the

Jackie:

same premise. And the thing about the frequencies too, especially like the specific frequencies. Yeah, that's that hone in on the specific part. Um, in 1910, something called the Flexner report came out, I believe it was in 1910 or 1912, that said, you know, all pharmaceuticals will be the future of medicine, so homeopathy. Homeopathics. Yeah. And you know, any traditional at the time, traditional, like even chiropractic, physical therapy, if that was around back then, a acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, all of that was set to be banned.

Sexy Jen:

Uhhuh. All the things that

Jackie:

work, all the things that work, you know, and they're like conventional medicine, here it is. And if you were caught practicing that you'd be jailed. So there was like. Tons of chiropractors that were jailed for practicing, but with the frequencies, um, a lot of the, the information of how they came to be was destroyed. So. Oh, so

Sexy Jen:

would you say, I mean, is this, is this a fair, analogy because when you're talking like about, hertz or frequencies, cycles per second, but if you're talking about microcurrent, would it be like the homeopathy of frequency or no? Is it, I don't know. No, not

Jackie:

quite, but I like, I like that analogy

Sexy Jen:

where it's like your body already knows, like it just takes in a subtle.

Jackie:

Actually, so I, I get where you're coming from. You're literally, it's one of those things, one of my mentors, yeah, Dr. Carol McMakin, she always says, it never doesn't work. And I love that. And never doesn't work. It never doesn't work. And, and people were like, that's not English. That's not correct grammar. I don't because, but it makes you remember. It makes you remember it because if you put the wrong frequency on someone, You're not gonna get, no one's gonna get injured from it. So that's maybe the whole thing. Just like if you were to drink

Sexy Jen:

a whole bottle of the NET Remedy, you'd be okay. Yeah.

Jackie:

And that's happened, uh, I don't know about your patients, but I've definitely gotten some calls that are like, Hey, like my kid drank half the bottle. Should I call poison control? I'm like, no. It's like a hundred thousand times diluted. And they're like, what? Like, I was like, don't worry about it. They'll be, yeah. So it's just, it's very similar. A hundred percent. It's like. It never doesn't work. So it's like if you run the wrong frequency in someone that it is just not gonna make a difference. Right? So it's such a phenomenal tool and, um, I, I've done, I use it in so many. Cases from, I, the first case, actually, my first presentation I ever gave as a doctor. Yes. I did it about a little girl who burned her face. Oh. And I remember, I got a little, just a small amount of backlash from different, like not our community or the holistic community or the chiropractic community was like some of, I think it was a nurse practitioner that like messaged me and was like, Hey, of course, stay, stay in your lane. Oh, you shouldn't be addressing burns. And I was like, no, I wasn't. I I just hooked her up to my frequency specific microcurrent and I ran the frequency for hemorrhaging.'cause that's what a burn is. It's bleeding. Yes. And it was able to, she was scheduled to meet with the the plastic surgeon about a skin graft on her face. And within five days, it healed up almost 60 to 70%, where the fact that it was just able to heal naturally and she didn't need a skin graft.

Sexy Jen:

That's huge. And like to the, to the, I'm sorry. To the people that, to the nurse practitioner. What if that family like listened or you did stay in your lane and then now this, I mean, it's just kind of wild. Exactly.

Jackie:

And my, the funny part about it, my mom, she calls herself the AMA Queen. And like, I'm her kid and she's very proud of me. I'm proud of her., But she was even like, you know, like, do your patience, like., That's a lot of trust to put in someone. And I was just like, it for sure. And I was like, no. But they had the appointment and they literally asked, is there anything you can do that we could maybe try?

Sexy Jen:

And that's, they just, that's like you were invited and yes. You're like, and that's the thing is like if they didn't ask, I don't think you'd be like. Pushing it, but they Yes.

Jackie:

Yeah, it's exactly. And so that was like the first, especially when you're just magic.

Sexy Jen:

Especially when you're dealing with like non-invasive things, like why not give it a try?

Jackie:

Right. Yeah. It never doesn't work. It's just never gonna work. It doesn't, or you just put the wrong frequency. And so that was the first Time I realized, I'm like, wow. Like being able to talk about what we do is so important, not just for to spread it in the community, this awareness, but like, man, like I made an Instagram reel about it and I had, I. Somebody contact me that I had no idea like who they were and they were like, Hey, like I saw that reel. My kid just did the same thing on a part of their body before they got burned. Is there anything you can do? Because I saw that and I was like, that's so cool to be able to spread that awareness. Um, yeah. You, and you,

Sexy Jen:

do you like have an affiliate link to buy the FSM machine? No,

Jackie:

not really. No. No. But I, I just, yeah. It, it's like one, sell'em one of those. Um, yeah, that just, I just send everyone to the website. That's one of the, the tools that's it's not so much like a affiliate program and that's Okay. Me, which is kind of not, which is

Sexy Jen:

kind, I mean, yeah. You're like, it works. But yeah. I was just curious if, yeah. Yeah. Wow.

Jackie:

Maybe, maybe I'll, maybe I'll ask them.

Sexy Jen:

Maybe you, you should No, I,

Jackie:

I, it's just one of those things too. It's like I literally have about. 10 plus patients who have bought one since me using it on them, and my dad is the biggest forerunner for FSM. It's really cool. Oh really? Yeah. He,

Sexy Jen:

he chat with his people.

Jackie:

Oh yeah. He loves it. And what's really cool is when I took the seminar, so my zady, my grandfather, was a huge proponent of applied kinesiology and microcurrent. I had no idea. Oh, I

Sexy Jen:

did. That is so wild. Talk about your lineage. I know it

Jackie:

was, it's supposed. To It was meant to be. It was meant to, all of it. To yes. And yeah. And, it was crazy. I was at the Microcurrent seminar and my dad was, I was telling my dad, and a lot of people get confused on Microcurrent versus FSM, I'm sorry, microcurrent versus tens units two completely different things. Okay. On the same spectrum. And do you, and

Sexy Jen:

can you use the microcurrent, uh, um, machine on animals?

Jackie:

Oh, you can? Yes. Okay. There are people who do, I'm licensed. I legally Right. You legally do you Legally,

Sexy Jen:

yes. Legally. Yeah.

Jackie:

There's your disclaimer. No. Yeah. Legally I am not, but No, I mean, like your own,

Sexy Jen:

your own pets.

Jackie:

Um, yeah. Oh yeah. Own pets. That's fine. Because well, people do is that they wet their collar and they just put the electrodes or, um, some people just put a warm towel down to connect electrodes and the dog lays on it. Uh, but yeah, there's, a lot of practitioners use, um, horses. Yeah, which is cool. And um, it's amazing stuff like yeah. Um, yeah, awesome. Frequency medicine is amazing.

Sexy Jen:

That's where it's at, right? Yeah. That's

Jackie:

where it's at. And yeah, and it's cool because I always thought that, just that one nurse practitioner who messaged me, but there's been really the only people who like.

Sexy Jen:

Give you

Jackie:

grief. Can I say, can I say a bad word now? I'm gonna, you can, it's we, you tell anybody who shits on like the profession as a whole, as chiropractic or other chiropractors. I found out. Um, and it's a lot of time. Are they more

Sexy Jen:

traditional chiropractic or traditional

Jackie:

or I've had only

Sexy Jen:

deal with the spine. They don't do any of that. And

Jackie:

Exactly. And that's great and all. And you're still helping people. I, I would never crap on my own profession. I love being a chiropractor. It is truly a blessing. But it's funny, I've realized like I have medical doctors who are patients, awesome. And, and like other different professions who like, um, you know, PTs come and massage therapists and they're all, they love what I do and I love what they do, but it's man, all the comments I've ever gotten were from other chiropractors that are like, oh yeah, you're not like a real chiropractor. And I'm like, you're well, you're a unicorn. And that's the best kind! I mean, time. I we're unicorn. It's okay. Yeah.

Sexy Jen:

You're the, the magical ones that heal people at the root level.

Jackie:

Yeah. Even when I go to the Microcurrent, symposium, we have it every two years. The frequency specific Microcurrent symposium. There are medical doctors up there, there are nurse practitioners. Oh, good. There's chiropractors. There's, and hopefully, like,

Sexy Jen:

hopefully they'll let a speech therapist go too. Right. Hey.

Jackie:

You know, and I think that's so cool. Even in the applied kinesiology world, there are, medical doctors who do that use muscle testing. There are, I know,

Sexy Jen:

and like finding dentists now, I feel like there's definitely a big col a big collective shift that's starting to happen. Yeah.

Jackie:

Mm-hmm. So I've always thought that was so interesting. I'm like, how come? It's just other chiropractors and I'm like, who cares? Who cares? It's I them, it works. It works. And it's like, let them, yeah. Yep. Let them. We love Mel Robbins. She's great. I love it. Yeah. So that's what I, can you

Sexy Jen:

another thing we can, while I have you here? Yes. Primitive reflex integration. Yes. Yes. Can you talk about like, how you, you utilize it in such an innovative way? I'm just so curious to give some examples maybe, how you're using primitive reflex integration with your frequency tools, with your knowledge of chiropractic and neurology.

Jackie:

Yes. Hmm. So I love chiropractic's. Amazing because you have a direct influence when you do an adjustment on the nervous system, right? Everyone talks about like nerve pressing on little bone on little nerve, right? Right. Sure. That's like the old school analogy, but you can literally, when you deliver an adjustment, it, you have truly a direct. Influence on the nervous system.'cause the spine's there to protect the set CNS, the brain and spinal spinal cord. So that's like step one. I don't adjust everyone manually all the time. Some people can't handle it. Sometimes that influence you have can be too powerful for people. Right. That's where I use, I use an activator of an integrator too. TRT is phenomenal. Incredible technique. So those are just two things, and you can use it Arthur some too, but with primitive reflex integration, it's pretty awesome. So a lot of people don't realize it's like chiropractors. You're not just learning how to adjust people all day. You're not learning basic anatomy. You have classes with special populations, so you have, a pediatric class, you have a geriatrics class. So in school we learned about some primitive reflexes, and I always remembered one in particular, the palmer grasp. So ideally you should not, when you stroke the hand, your fingers should not go like that. And you can actually see mine's a little bit intact. Yeah. Mine's on there. Yeah. Yeah. But can you

Sexy Jen:

speak to that? Because people, because like you can go through an emotional trauma Yes. And every, every primitive reflex can get activated. Yes. Comes up. Yes. So

Jackie:

that one in particular, I just always stuck with me when I was in school. And then like, you know, it got big in like the neurology, chiropractic community. But, in terms of like primitive reflex integration, in like the office, the way I explain reflex primitive reflexes to individuals is like, when you're fresh, I say fresh out of the womb, you are out of the oven, you are into the world. You need these reflexes in order to learn how to creep, and you should creep before you crawl and grab onto things. Latch onto mom's breast, right? You need to use reflexes for a period of time for

Sexy Jen:

survival. Yeah. Keeps you safe.

Jackie:

Keeps you alive. Alive, keeps safe, keeps you alive. And your brain's developing and you're figuring out the world. And about a year into life, these reflexes should go away. They should be integrated where, I shouldn't stroke your hand and your fingers go like this. I shouldn't stroke the bottom of your foot. And your, you know, your foot freaks out and flares upwards. So what happens is it's the reflexes. You're sending information to the brain. Right? Mm-hmm. Okay. We're do, oh, this is, we've got going like this. The lips go that way. Oh, mom. Mom's breast. That's, that's how we get food, right? Right. When we're, one, two, about maybe like depends. Two depends. Yeah. Some people don't, some women don't at all. And that's cool too, right? So if you think about it, if you're constantly getting input to the brain. That's not necessarily a good thing all the time. Right? Right. We're our brain's always working. Right. But if you think about like these reflexes or if they're constantly sending information, the brain, when we don't need that to happen because we know how to walk, we know how to crawl, we know how to latch on mom's breast. Don't, we think that could overstimulate the brain in some ways, right? Yes. And the immune system,

Sexy Jen:

you're, you're constantly in a state of survival. Yep. Versus, yeah,

Jackie:

exactly. Like, and so that's where the reflex integration came in. It's okay,. If you do something, oh, it's like practice, right? Like they say practice something I think a million times in order to get something right, like just swing it bat Sure. I think, I think that's, it's a million times or maybe a hundred thousand doesn't matter. You practice something in order to get something, right? So when reflex primitive reflex integration integration, you constantly stimulate it. In order for it to go away. And what I do, I use different lasers and lights on the head. And I also, I'll also shine lasers in, on the body in different areas. It's like intuitive stuff, right? Yeah. Yeah. So, and when it does it gets down to the point where the reflex integrates, it goes away. Mm-hmm. But, you know, there's always that piece of our brain, brain that remembers stuff, right. It's just like a trauma. Anyone who's, experienced some sort of like deep level of trauma. You don't really realize it until years later. Some people, I should say, not everyone, so Lady Gaga has this phenomenal interview. I believe she was on Jimmy Fallon, I think it was Jimmy Fallon, and she talks about being a sexual assault survivor, and she says that, you know, um. Your brain will do everything to protect you. Mm-hmm. Until it can't, until you're put that trauma into a box in the back of your brain until it's ready to be dealt with or you, I. Something happens where you are not re-traumatized, you actually, you're either re-traumatized or something triggers something for you to remember that trauma. Yeah, and I think about reflexes the same way. It's like people get in car accidents and all they like, you know, all of a sudden they have anxiety. They never had anxiety before.

Sexy Jen:

Right. Um.

Jackie:

And if something's overstimulated, right? It's not just your brain. What about our organs? Tummy troubles. Tummy ache survivors. Yeah. Things like that. So I just think of that in the, and that's just the baseline understanding of primitive reflexes. Why would we want. To keep something going if it's not needed. Yes. So that's where that integration comes in, and especially for kids on the ASD spectrum and adults. Right. Um, I check reflex since then, everyone who comes in my office, I'll check the rooting reflex. That's this Uhhuh, uh, palmer grasp and Babinski. Mm-hmm. On. Everyone, every single one of my patients, some of the other reflexes, there's something called like the atonic reflex. It's a little bit more, I say invasive because it requires you to turn their head. Uhhuh I, I wait to develop trust in people or, sure. Unless they're just like, oh, unless we hit it off right away. It's usually like, it depends. The first or second, second or third treatment will do that. But it's so profound because it's not just people who are overstimulated, it's, a lot of people have these and you know. Accidents trauma that they can cause these reflexes to come back.

Sexy Jen:

Right. And the body's so cool about compensating. It's crazy. Yeah. So like it's amazing and I'm learning that from fascia release. Like what? Where I have my restrictions and a lot of that is what you're talking about, the primitive reflex stuff. As I've seen when people go into a more subconscious unwinding in this. John F. Barnes, it's like, I'll see people revisit primitive reflexes that kept us during the accidents. Um, yeah. So I know we could geek out on this all day long. All day long. All day long. It's, it's amazing. I, but I wanna say thank you for all you're doing, like all the people you're helping. Oh my gosh. The kids I mean, like, I have that. All the ASD kids and the, the kids that's like the kids.

Jackie:

It's, it's funny, like I said, I, it's become one of the things I'm most passionate about seeing are the children. Um, I mean, imagine

Sexy Jen:

if we had these tools growing up. I know, right?

Jackie:

And that's what I, I see, I see so many, so much of me and the kids who struggle in school. Yeah. Um, you know, and, it's so like, oof. I'm gonna cry. Yeah. Um, it's so amazing where, you know, I've had. Patients, like we've seen so and so we've done this and um, this really is what hit it on the head for, make everything else work just. As good as what you're doing. So I love how people go to occupational therapy. It's phenomenal. And physical therapy, that's also phenomenal. Yeah. And what I do, it can help bring it together where it can make what their sessions like, elevate that much.

Sexy Jen:

Yes, absolutely. And we can all be working together and not treating it as two different disciplines and all the things we love working together.

Jackie:

Yeah. Where

Sexy Jen:

Jacquie, where can people. Obviously, where is your practice? It's in Austin. Yes. And what's the name of your practice? Yes.

Jackie:

So, my practice is in Austin, Texas. My practice is named Reiser Chiropractic Kinesiology, and, ode to my grandfather Hyman riser. Aw. Uh,'cause yeah, I just, you know, I love it. But, um, and I'm also working on hopefully opening up a satellite clinic in Westchester, New York.

Sexy Jen:

Oh, cool. Yeah, I, um, that's awesome.

Jackie:

I've always been, I love, I've left home when I was 17 when, or 18 when you go to college. And I really never, I never moved back. I go home all the time to visit, see the dog. Of course I see the dog. But, um. I think I, every bit of me was just like, you know, and even if it's like once every three months and there for a week, there's something drawing me back to New York and there's a lot of people that you

Sexy Jen:
