Our Acupuncture Techniques in Vernon Hills, IL

At our clinic in Vernon Hills, IL, we offer a variety of acupuncture techniques. Our methods are designed to promote healing, reduce pain, and restore balance to the body’s natural energy. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, stress, or other health concerns, our acupuncture techniques are fully personalized to provide effective care.

Traditional Chinese Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Acupuncture is an ancient healing technique that focuses on restoring balance to the body’s energy, or “Qi.” By inserting thin, sterile needles into specific points along energy pathways, known as meridians, this method helps to ease pain, reduce stress, and improve overall health. It addresses both physical and emotional concerns by targeting the root cause of imbalances in the body. Traditional Chinese Acupuncture is commonly used for conditions like chronic pain, headaches, digestive issues, and stress relief.

Auricular Acupuncture

Auricular acupuncture is a specialized technique that focuses on stimulating specific points on the ear to treat various health conditions. The ear is believed to represent a microsystem of the body, and by targeting these points, auricular acupuncture can address pain, stress, and even digestive issues. It is also used in cosmetic acupuncture to improve skin health and promote facial rejuvenation.

Acupressure Stimulation

Acupressure stimulation is a non-invasive technique that involves applying gentle pressure to specific points on the body, similar to acupuncture but without the use of needles. Instead, pressure is applied using fingers, hands, or specialized tools to stimulate energy flow and promote healing. Often paired with acupuncture massage, this technique can ease tension, reduce pain, and improve circulation. It’s particularly effective for stress relief and muscle relaxation.

Electroacupuncture

Electroacupuncture is a modern variation of traditional acupuncture, where a licensed acupuncturist uses small electrical currents to improve the effects of needle stimulation. During the treatment, electrodes are attached to the acupuncture needles, delivering gentle pulses to the body. This technique helps intensify the stimulation of specific points, improving blood flow, reducing pain, and promoting faster healing. Electroacupuncture is commonly used for conditions like chronic pain, muscle spasms, and nerve-related issues.

Chiropractor, Acupuncture, NET, FMT, Webster Certified

At just 14 years old, Dr. Habenicht developed a passion for Chiropractic Medicine and decided this field was her future. As a committed soccer player, Dr. Habenicht was always searching for real health solutions instead of medication for her injuries. In high school, she sought out Chiropractic Care for a severe ankle sprain. As a result she experienced full resolution of ankle pain and weakness, and due to the comprehensive nature of the practice she also had relief of hip pain and a reduction of GERD symptoms and debilitating migraines. This inspired her to pursue both Chiropractic and Functional Medicine to use natural remedies to heal chronic conditions and know more about it. 

Prior to Chiropractor school, Dr. Habenicht attended Montreat College in North Carolina on a Soccer Scholarship, where she also received a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Pre-Medical Studies and a double minor in Chemistry and Environmental Studies. Her other interests include: hiking with her dog Hunter, playing soccer, learning how to golf, and reading.

I would strongly recommend Dr Peyton from Cross up Chiropractic. She offered a very comprehensive evaluation. She asked questions about my medical history to help her evaluate how to best support my needs. I wish I would have taken notes since I learned so much from her as she talked through symptoms and outcomes. I left with a number of action steps that I could implement to support and strengthen my neck and back. She is very knowledgeable. I'm so thankful that I found her practice.

Dr. Peyton is so great and accommodating! First of all, she has explored several ways to help with pain and discomfort. I also appreciate how she will educate you on techniques and anatomy before administering care. I always feel better after my adjustments when i leave there. Second, she has been incredibly accommodating of my needs as a new mom. I don’t have childcare yet, but she lets me bring my daughter to our sessions. She goes above and beyond by engaging with my baby. For example, today she finished feeding her and cleaned off a toy that was dropped on the floor because I couldn’t get off the table mid treatment. Amazing level of compassion and support that allows me to seek treatment without childcare.

Dr. Jack Rieke improved my range of motion dramatically in one session. I had fallen down a step on a spike grated platform. The multiple punctures had mostly healed, but I could only bend my knee 90 degrees. Dr. Jack also treated my neck, upper back and ankle that were injured as well as improved the motion of knee to almost full range of motion. He spent more time than expected responding to each area of concern making a huge difference in my ability to move without pain! I highly recommend this practice for anyone looking to improve their mobility.

I saw Dr. Peyton Habenicht-Rieke for neck/back pain. She completed an extremely thorough history of my health, including past pains and current. She provided education on why I may be having this pain and went into depth on her plan to help me gain mobility and relief from her treatment. I was also provided suggestions and exercises on what I could do to relieve pain in between visits. I look forward to future sessions as I feel her knowledge and skills will provide an improved overall health for my body, versus something temporary.

Dr Peyton is awesome. She made me feel comfortable knowing that I have not been to a Chiropractor in years. My visits are helping me with my lower back & neck pain. Only 2 visits so far and I feel amazing. The information she provides me is so informative. I am so grateful to her and I will continue to go back. Body is feeling so much better.

Ok. So the doctor knows his stuff, and willing to share it on a level that means something. Took care of the worst pain and numbness to my right leg I have ever had. The exercise routine he has given me, will change my muscle issues for the better and I believe, how I will age.So, now my left leg was acting. No injury. Hoping it would go away on its own. He treated it, tuned an exercise to address the issue for the future. Feeling better after one day! Getting older is rough. I'm glad I have Dr. Reicke to help me along!

I just started seeing Dr Peyton Habenicht. Initially went in just for regular chiro/adjustments but she's providing so much more.She working on my knee issues, and tight quad/hamstrings. Plus she has given me strengthening exercises to do at home between visits. Plus the adjustments. She does manual adjustments which I prefer.Office/staff is really nice. Dr is really knowledgeable, friendly, and so good! Looking forward to having acupuncture at some point too.Highly recommend.

I have very bad back pain and saw Dr Jack for the first time and he was able to start working right away and I go some immediate relief. I understand it is still a work in progress but it was so nice to find someone that could actually help me. I tried physical therapy, injections, nothing was working. Thanks so much.

Dr. Jack is fantastic. I’ve gone in sporadically for lower back pain and with his treatment and stretches, I’m always so much better when I leave. He takes his time, really listens, and is so knowledgeable. It’s great that he gives me stretches to do at home to keep my back from acting up.

Dr. Jack’s expertise has been very helpful fixing and promoting healing for my sciatica problem. I started seeing him in early September following an injury in August that was significantly painful and had caused restricted mobility for weeks. My former longtime PT left the state a few years ago and I went to Dr. Jack with a high recommendation from my husband.Dr. Jack is kind, upbeat, very knowledgeable, and he has been extremely integral in helping me get through this physical issue.The office is modern, clean, and well-equipped. Staff is very friendly and efficient. I highly recommend Cross-Up Chiropractic!

Dr. Jack & Dr. Peyton are the best in town. Dr. Jack takes him time, listens and helps get to the root of the issues.

I highly recommend this practice. A+++

I absolutely LOVE this center and Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton. Our whole family goes here. Let me just say that, while I have worked with wonderful chiropractors in the past, there isn't anyone that is as comprehensive as Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton are. One recent example, I came in for an adjustment and complained of feeling sleepy and not having the clearest head. Dr. Jack analyzed and had me do a few head movements to reset (something dealing with inner ear) and my head cleared up within 2 minutes. Other recent examples - I had headaches and Dr. Jack did a TMJ adjustment that made them go away. My son had a forearm injury, Dr. Jack stepped up with Occupational Therapy. My wife is raving about Dr. Payton for help with her issues. My shoulder was hurt and Dr. Jack fixed it, etc. etc. etc. They truly are the best place to go if you're in need of a chiropractor, acupuncture, physical therapy, or nutrition. Every time I get more and more impressed. If you're in Libertyville, Vernon Hills (like I am), Mundelein, or any of the surrounding area - you really should check them out! Thank you Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton!!!

After calling Dr. Rieke, while in immense pain with my IT Band injury, he gave me immediate instructions about how to stabilize my injury at home until my appointment the very next morning. Once in his office, Dr. Rieke alleviated the majority of my pain during the very first visit (I crawled in, and was actually able to walk out.) He spent about an hour with me and throughout the entire visit explained the dynamics behind his methodology. It really helped to be educated about my condition which allowed me to better understand the road to recovery. Can't thank Dr. Jack enough for his knowledge and expertise – along with his compassionate bedside manner. He's a real pro!

I wish I could rate more than 5 stars! I do not submit reviews often but Cross-Up Chiropractic is hands down the best Chiropractic office I have ever been to. They are the most caring doctors who listen to their patients and create plans that will fix the issue(s) long term and not put a bandaid on them. Dr. Peyton has helped me overcome injuries that I thought I would have to live in pain for the rest of my life. I always leave my appointments feeling like a new person! At every appointment I have she continues to educate me on why my pains are occurring and how we will be fixing them for a long term. She has introduced me to acupuncture, cupping and nutrition! My healthy and body are in a completely different place from where I was 4 months ago and I owe it all to Dr. Peyton! I cannot say enough amazing things about her!

From the first phone conversation I could tell that she is informed & she listened to all of my concerns.

I had my first appointment with Dr. Peyton today and already know my care is in the right hands. I will be working with her on my chiropractic needs and fertility acupuncture. She is knowledgeable, kind and genuinely cares.

Ok. So the doctor knows his stuff, and willing to share it on a level that means something. Took care of the worst pain and numbness to my right leg I have ever had. The exercise routine he has given me, will change my muscle issues for the better and I believe, how I will age.So, now my left leg was acting. No injury. Hoping it would go away on its own. He treated it, tuned an exercise to address the issue for the future. Feeling better after one day! Getting older is rough. I'm glad I have Dr. Reicke to help me along!

Had a amazing experience at Cross-Up! Got to work with Dr. Rieke on my sciatic pain and was thrilled to see the improvement in my symptoms after just a couple visits! He is very thorough with his care and I leave learning much more than I went in with. Highly recommend this office!

Hands down the best chiropractor I’ve ever been to!!! Dr Jack is very knowledgeable and always thinks outside the box. His adjustments are so much more than the average chiropractor. He knows what areas to target to help get maximum relief! I have improved so much in a few sessions and am doing so much better each day!

I just started seeing Dr Peyton Habenicht. Initially went in just for regular chiro/adjustments but she's providing so much more.She working on my knee issues, and tight quad/hamstrings. Plus she has given me strengthening exercises to do at home between visits. Plus the adjustments. She does manual adjustments which I prefer.Office/staff is really nice. Dr is really knowledgeable, friendly, and so good! Looking forward to having acupuncture at some point too.Highly recommend.

Dr Rieke is so good at what he does. The ART (what I go for) is the best therapy I have had. His verbal explanation while using his technique makes me understand what is going on and how I can help myself on a regular basis.

I have very bad back pain and saw Dr Jack for the first time and he was able to start working right away and I go some immediate relief. I understand it is still a work in progress but it was so nice to find someone that could actually help me. I tried physical therapy, injections, nothing was working. Thanks so much.

Dr. Jack is fantastic. I’ve gone in sporadically for lower back pain and with his treatment and stretches, I’m always so much better when I leave. He takes his time, really listens, and is so knowledgeable. It’s great that he gives me stretches to do at home to keep my back from acting up.

Dr. Jack’s expertise has been very helpful fixing and promoting healing for my sciatica problem. I started seeing him in early September following an injury in August that was significantly painful and had caused restricted mobility for weeks. My former longtime PT left the state a few years ago and I went to Dr. Jack with a high recommendation from my husband.Dr. Jack is kind, upbeat, very knowledgeable, and he has been extremely integral in helping me get through this physical issue.The office is modern, clean, and well-equipped. Staff is very friendly and efficient. I highly recommend Cross-Up Chiropractic!

Dr. Jack has been helping me with my wrist and knows what he's doing. So refreshing after dealing with other doctors just sending my around for x-rays, 5 minute discussions and surgery with no guarantees.

Dr. Jack & Dr. Peyton are the best in town. Dr. Jack takes him time, listens and helps get to the root of the issues. I came into the office for the first time thinking I would just get a quick adjustment, but it also included stretching, exercises & treatment! These doctors genuinely care about getting you better. I highly recommend this practice. A+++

I absolutely LOVE this center and Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton. Our whole family goes here. Let me just say that, while I have worked with wonderful chiropractors in the past, there isn't anyone that is as comprehensive as Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton are. One recent example, I came in for an adjustment and complained of feeling sleepy and not having the clearest head. Dr. Jack analyzed and had me do a few head movements to reset (something dealing with inner ear) and my head cleared up within 2 minutes. Other recent examples - I had headaches and Dr. Jack did a TMJ adjustment that made them go away. My son had a forearm injury, Dr. Jack stepped up with Occupational Therapy. My wife is raving about Dr. Payton for help with her issues. My shoulder was hurt and Dr. Jack fixed it, etc. etc. etc. They truly are the best place to go if you're in need of a chiropractor, acupuncture, physical therapy, or nutrition. Every time I get more and more impressed. If you're in Libertyville, Vernon Hills (like I am), Mundelein, or any of the surrounding area - you really should check them out! Thank you Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton!!!

Dr. Rieke displayed a great depth of knowledge regarding my back issue. He gave me some exercises that appear to be working. Treatment is ongoing, but I'm optimistic He appears to be both competent and confidant.

After calling Dr. Rieke, while in immense pain with my IT Band injury, he gave me immediate instructions about how to stabilize my injury at home until my appointment the very next morning. Once in his office, Dr. Rieke alleviated the majority of my pain during the very first visit (I crawled in, and was actually able to walk out.) He spent about an hour with me and throughout the entire visit explained the dynamics behind his methodology. It really helped to be educated about my condition which allowed me to better understand the road to recovery. Can't thank Dr. Jack enough for his knowledge and expertise – along with his compassionate bedside manner. He's a real pro!

The doctors here research nutrition, active release technique and LISTEN to the patient in our family. The doctors take time to communicate with the patient to understand the patient's health situation. The doctors ask the patient for feedback and use their knowledge to adapt treatment accordingly. I highly recommend!

Dr Rieke was fabulous. He took the time to thoroughly review and discuss my history, asked lots of questions and really listened. His assessment included asking fur my feedback on pain, discomfort and the like. This helped him determine what was happening and what treatment was called for. I look forward to continuing our work together.

I wish I could rate more than 5 stars! I do not submit reviews often but Cross-Up Chiropractic is hands down the best Chiropractic office I have ever been to. They are the most caring doctors who listen to their patients and create plans that will fix the issue(s) long term and not put a bandaid on them. Dr. Peyton has helped me overcome injuries that I thought I would have to live in pain for the rest of my life. I always leave my appointments feeling like a new person! At every appointment I have she continues to educate me on why my pains are occurring and how we will be fixing them for a long term. She has introduced me to acupuncture, cupping and nutrition! My healthy and body are in a completely different place from where I was 4 months ago and I owe it all to Dr. Peyton! I cannot say enough amazing things about her!

I was referred to Dr. Reike by a friend and I’m so happy I was. I’m a chronic pain patient with extenuating circumstances. In only two visits I have more mobility than I’ve had in 13 years!At your first opportunity, give them a call and make an appointment, you’ll be glad you did!

I am completely happy with my results I look foward to more help in maintaining this stabilized move forward. Thanks to Dr. Rieke my long months of pain will be in the past.

Dr. Peyton Habenicht worked with me for over two hours for my first session and adjustment. She was thorough & informed me of more details regarding my injury. I really enjoyed that she taught me PT exercises that I can do from home to help speed my recovery. From the first phone conversation I could tell that she is informed & she listened to all of my concerns. If you are hesitant to see a chiropractor, don’t worry, with Dr. Peyton you are in good hands. I can see her passion and commitment to her profession. Also she charges fairly & this is refreshing. I highly recommend her!!!

Acupuncture Vernon Hills – FAQs

What is acupuncture Vernon Hills?

Acupuncture Vernon Hills is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practice that has been used for over 2,500 years. Acupuncture Vernon Hills is based on the belief that life energy, or qi (pronounced “chee”), flows through the body and can become blocked. When this happens, it can lead to pain or illness. Acupuncture is thought to help unblock the qi and restore balance to the body by placing fine acupuncture needles along the body’s various meridians aka energy pathways.

Acupuncture Vernon Hills stimulates specific points on the body by gently inserting thin needles through the skin. Needle administration is very comfortable and placed along strategic channels that correlate the various body systems. Patients rarely feel the needles because of the swift technique and fine gauge.

Will I be sore after treatment?

Soreness is common early on in treatment due to soft tissue and neurological adaptations taking place with treatment. This tends to subside after the first day and a half, at which point patients recognize relief of the overarching injury.

What to wear to acupuncture Vernon Hills?

You will need to wear light and comfortable clothing for your acupuncture session. There should be easy access to the knees, elbows and neck.

How much does acupuncture cost in Vernon Hills?

The cost of acupuncture near me depends on the area of the procedure. Prices for some services are shown in the table below.

Acupuncture Gurnee Price, $
Facial acupuncture, 1h from $100
Knee, elbow acupuncture, 50m from $100
Back acupuncture from $100

How is this practice different from other Chiropractors?

Our treatment is not limited to solely adjustments. We incorporate muscular release therapies and personalized rehab with adjustments to enhance performance and fast track your recovery. After we get you out of pain and capable of returning to strenuous activity, the occasional tune up is recommended but not required when you follow the home rehab plan we assign.

What to expect during treatment?

Follow up appointments are approximately 30-45 minutes in length of 1-on-1 treatment. Each treatment will vary by individual and per condition. It is not uncommon that a patient begins to feel relief after the first visit.

If this is the right approach to your condition, you will know within the first two treatments.

Our treatments consist of hands-on and movement therapy to restore function where necessary.

Does medicine cover acupuncture Vernon Hills?

Yes, acupuncture is covered by several PPO insurance plans, and we also accept Medicare. For those paying out of pocket, discounts may be available based on the service provided.

How long does acupuncture Vernon Hills take?

Acupuncture sessions in Vernon Hills typically last between 25 minutes to an hour, depending on the individual’s specific needs and treatment plan. During this time, the acupuncturist will assess your condition and tailor the session to provide the best possible experience and outcomes. The duration may vary based on factors such as the complexity of the treatment and the areas being targeted.
