Dr. David DeLapp DC offers you a
A deep heartfelt welcome to
Fair Oaks Healing & Arts Center
Health and happiness are achievable.
Your job is to love yourself enough to start on the path to health and happiness today.
Health and happiness are continuous ongoing processes. Your life is constantly unfolding. This unfolding creates challenges, physically and emotionally, mentally and spiritually. You are either moving forward or you are sliding backward. There are no rest points. Either direction of movement often produces stress. When it does, we are here to support bringing you back to balance.
Acute Condition Care is needed when sudden physical stress produces muscle, ligament and joint sprains and strains. We use the fastest and the gentlest chiropractic methods on the planet to bring you back to balance. Click here to learn more about Acute Care.
Chronic Condition Care is needed when poor work and lifestyle situations also unbalance the muscles, ligaments and joints. In addition to gentle chiropractic, we use balance and coordination training and rehabilitative exercise to get you back on track. Click here to learn more about Chronic Care.
Health Recovery - Dietary lifestyle choices produce a wide variety of symptoms, particularly if your diet choices do not match your individual metabolic needs. We assess your individual needs and design a lifestyle diet and nutrient support to bring you back to health. Click here to learn more about Health Recovery.

We use the amazing, cutting edge techniques of Gracework and Heartflow to quickly move you beyond these glitches in your life. Click here to learn more.
What does it really take to be healthy and happy?
Your body needs to be strong, flexible, and mobile for you to be able to perform your daily tasks. It needs to be able to produce an abundance of energy from the food you eat and the air you breathe. It needs to effectively eliminate toxic waste. It needs to grow, repair, and defend you from external assaults. It needs to be able to see, hear, and feel well for you to be able to connect with life. It needs to be able to experience pain and pleasure.
Creating meaningful and pleasurable connection with life is the source of happiness. All of life is about relationships. Nothing exists in isolation. Everything is connected to everything else. Our experience of life is created by the quality of our relationships to life.Life happens and we participate with that. When we find a harmonious balance between ourselves and life, our health and happiness grows.
Achieving this balance is a challenge; a lifelong challenge. When we get out of balance stress happens in our various systems. At Fair Oaks Healing & Arts Center we support bringing balance to all areas of your life. We see all aspects of you as interconnected with every part of you affecting every other part. This is why we need a culture of health.
You are very complex. You are unique. Simple one-size-fits-all answers will not work for you.
You need and deserve ongoing support that is custom tailored to your needs.
While we have a fantastic reputation for being able to fix what hurts quickly and easily, our real work is much broader.
Our goal is to improve both the health and happiness of our patients.
Pain relief is important because pain interferes with both function and the ability to feel pleasure. But pain relief really has little to do with health. A shot of morphine can take your pain away, but it does not make you any healthier.
Pain is simply a signal that tells us something deeper in our body is either not healthy or not happy. We want to heal that deeper something.
Healing is really growth. Unless we’ve just had a traumatic injury, we are not broken. Our symptoms are generally the result of conflicts and confusions between the varying needs of different parts of our self. Healing is usually about developing the skills to get the different needs met without conflict.
Because of this understanding much of our work at Fair Oaks Healing & Arts Center is about teaching skills. We want to do more than just fix problems; we want to teach the skills of health and happiness.
So what do we actually do in the office?
Did that golf game last weekend get you?…maybe it was lifting that suitcase…or maybe it was “I just slept wrong and now it hurts”.
If you had a minor trauma or even no trauma but you just started hurting in the last couple weeks, then you are in luck. Acute pain is generally easy to resolve.
If you have already tried some heat and cold and maybe an anti-inflammatory without sufficient results, then Non-force Chiropractic may be just what you are looking for. No popping or cracking - just relief.
Dr. DeLapp uses the latest gentle non-force technology, the Activator® and the Impulse® adjusting tools to bring your body back to normal fast.
Simple low and no trauma injuries generally only take 3 – 6 visits so you are back on track in no time!
The Activator moves the joints and releases the muscles with a very quick tap that you can barely feel. Don’t let the gentleness fool you. The tap is a 6 lb. force that is too fast for your body feel or resist.
The Impulse adjusting tool also supplies a very quick tap that is twice as fast as the Activator and therefore even gentler. It also has the advantage of tapping rapidly to release stubborn muscle and joint fixations.
The Biomagnetic resetting tool is used to activate specific reflex points on your body causing your brain to reset and normalize unbalanced muscles in your body.
But what if you had an auto accident or a major fall with a lot of trauma? Then you want non-force chiropractic care even more. The last thing your body wants after a serious injury is more trauma from twisting and popping, physical therapy, and toxic drugs.
Dr. DeLapp can manage your case from acute care to rehabilitation and reconditioning with gentle and effective non-force care, therapy, muscle rehab, nutrition, and balance retraining.
How long do more serious cases take? Muscle tears usually take 2-6 weeks to heal. Ligament and tendon sprains/partial tears can take 2-8 months because of the slow healing of these tissues.
Combining your Chiropractic care with soft tissue therapy and nutritional support can reduce these healing times by as much as 50%. Following up your injury treatment with a supportive self-nurturing phase of regular tune-ups keeps your entire body operating in optimal condition.
Treatment is usually only two times a week in the acute phase and only takes 15 minutes per a typical visit. Generally only one visit per week is needed during the rehabilitation phase. This schedule has been found to provide you the greatest recovery for the least cost so you can get back to your life.

Details…
Our goal in acute care is to relieve the pain and inflammation as quickly as possible. This helps prevent adhesion and scar tissue formation, which produces long term dysfunction.
We relieve muscle/joint pain by restoring normal movement and function using Activator and Impulse non-force Chiropractic (link to info page on activator adjusting). This type of Chiropractic correction does not twist or pop your bones and is extremely gentle.
Healthy anti-inflammatory enzymes are usually prescribed to reduce inflammation rather than using toxic medications.
In office or at home physical therapy may be used such as Infrasound, Laser, Disc Pump Traction, and Heat and Cold contrast therapy. Massage Therapy may also be prescribed.
At the first visit we will:
1. Take a History of your injuries
2. Perform an Orthopedic/Neurologic exam
3. Perform a Palpation/Range of Motion/Balance exam
4. Do Muscle response testing to locate what corrections are needed
5. Prescribe X-rays if a fracture is suspected
6. Report our findings to you and recommend the most beneficial treatments
7. Perform the initial corrections to begin your healing
Simple acute pain cases (no major trauma such as in Auto or Industrial Injuries) typically resolve within 3 to 6 treatments. 60% to 70% of the pain is often gone after the second treatment.
Cash Price – no billing $164.00 for the initial exam and treatment, $50 for follow up treatments. For insurance work see full rates page.
Medicare Discount : $139 initial exam and treatment and $36 for subsequent chiropractic treatments.
Do you have pain that has been going on for more than 6 - 8 weeks? Does that pain seem to spread or move about, or is it that same old nagging spot in the neck or low back?
If your pain has been going on for more than 6 - 8 weeks then it has become chronic. Physical and chemical changes are taking place that are permanently altering the health of that area of your body.
Pain is your body’s way of saying that damage is taking place.
Normally your body can heal almost any injury within 6 – 8 weeks as long as there is good blood supply to the area. Broken bones, torn muscles, surgery sites, all heal within 6 – 8 weeks.
If your pain is lasting longer than 6-8 weeks then something more than simple injury is going on. Chronic pain is a sign that other systems in your body are failing.
To treat chronic pain we have to look at more than just what hurts. We have to look deeper. Everything has a cause, you just have to know where to look for it. Chronic pain always has lifestyle factors and healing conflicts contributing to it.
We have two goals with chronic pain –
1. Reduce pain and inflammation
2. Restore normal function
We want to get you back to a functional life with little or no pain.
What do we do in a first visit for chronic pain?
1. Take a Health history
2. Do an Inflammation survey
3. Perform a Stability – Balance exam
4. Perform a Palpation/range of motion exam
5. Perform an Orthopedic/Neurologic exam
6. Perform Muscle response testing to locate what non-force Chiropractic corrections are needed
7. Perform a Urinalysis for sugar balance to check for sugar stress
8. If your pain is widespread we may perform an Oxidata Marker lab test to see if your inflammation has become systemic
9. Report our findings to you and recommend the most beneficial treatments
10. Perform the initial corrections to begin your healing
We relieve muscle/joint pain by restoring normal movement and function using Activator & Impulse non-force Chiropractic
Depending upon your case, some of the following therapies may be used:
Bio-magnetic muscle re-patterning
Massage if needed
Percussion for breaking up scar tissue
Balance & Rehabilitation exercises
Foot orthotics if needed
Anti-inflammatory diet protocols
Blood sugar balancing diet
Enzyme therapy
Infrasound / Chaos therapy
Biofeedback training
Nutritional assessment
Gracework
Ergonomic assessment of your workplace and home environment
Chronic pain is a retraining and management process. The first 50% of your pain and dysfunction generally resolve fairly easily. Each successive 50% takes more work, time, and commitment on your part.
Cash Price – no billing $164.00 for the initial exam and treatment, Oxidata Lab test (if needed) $39, follow up Chiropractic treatments $50 each. Other therapies at various prices – see pricing page. (link) For insurance work see… (link).
Do you have abundant energy throughout the day? Is your sleep restful and do you wake up energized and ready for the day? Is your digestion great and your elimination easy and regular. Do you look and feel your best?
This is what health is all about. Is your health slipping away?
If you are reading this section then you probably are noticing that you don’t have the energy you used to have. Are you too tired to go do what you love? Is feeling bad interfering with your life? This is no way to live.
Your digestion may be poor with stomach bloating or acid reflux. Your may have a weight problem, or more serious health issues. You may find your medicine chest is full of prescription drugs.
What went wrong? Where did the good feelings of youth go?
When we were young we had an abundance of vitality that kept us going in spite of poor health habits. But vitality runs out. Our poor health lifestyle choices catch up with us.
If you are tired of this story then now is the time to begin your health recovery!
Long before actual disease catches up with us, we start having the signs and symptoms of imbalances within the body warning us to make changes before things get serious.
The technology exists to find these imbalances and to show you how to make corrections to recover your health. Some of this technology is relatively simple and some is very sophisticated.
We have these technologies and can use them today to help you begin your health recovery now.
This is not “magic” that promises to give you super health overnight. This is a systematic approach to recovering your health that is based on actual physical and chemical feedback tests that guide us as you progress.
Stop guessing about your health. Find out now what is going on and what to do about it.
So what are the details; what do we actually do?
• Heart rate variability analysis – to check your nervous system health and heart health
• 21 factor urinalysis – to check for such things as blood sugar imbalances, toxicity, adrenal fatigue, inflammation, enzyme function, mineral balances, etc…
• Physical exam – to check for acidosis, chemical energy production, nerve balance, cellular integrity
• Metabolic symptom surveys – to check for emerging diseases
• Detailed report of findings with customized diet recommendations, lifestyle modifications, exercises and balance training
• Prescription of necessary bio-active agents to rebalance your body’s chemistry
Additional Tests that may be ordered if needed:
Salivary Hormone testing
Alcat Allergy testing – food & environmental
Asyra energetic nutrition testing
Functional blood tests
Glucose tolerance / Dysglycemia testing
Gut parasite/pathogenic bacteria tests
Neurotransmitter excretion tests
The initial exam with all the above checked procedures is only $125
Follow up urinalysis/consult at 3-4 week intervals is $125
Average health conditions reach balance in 4 – 6 months. After this, biannual checkups are recommended.
Life Skill Enhancement
Do your symptoms appear for little or no reason?
This is usually caused by internal feeling conflicts. Each muscle in your body corresponds to a different feeling state. When your feelings are in conflict, soon your muscles also go into conflict. Conflict produces pain and reduced function.
Do you want parts of your life to be happier?
Unhappiness in your life is due to either feeling conflicts or a simple lack of the feeling skills necessary for getting your needs met.
Our culture does not teach feeling skills. Church, school, and social settings will promote various virtues, but do not actually teach how to achieve them. Everyone is left to figure it out on his or her own. If you mess things up terribly you might end up with a counselor who may try to suggest some feeling skill upgrades. But mostly you are taught to simply inhibit negative feelings and actions…not how to build positive ones.
At Fair Oaks Healing & Arts Center we believe that healing is really about growth.
After 20 years of spiritual training and daily discipline Dr. DeLapp had a series of Transcendent experiences that radically shifted his view of life. His experiences with a greater reality (which he is comfortable calling God) have prompted him to develop and promote a philosophy he calls Heartflow.
In 1997 after Dr. DeLapp and his companion Ellen spent a year getting certified to treat Addictions and Compulsive Behaviors, Dr. DeLapp concluded that the only hope for long term success with addicts was the development of better life skills. This quickly became an understanding that the disharmonies in everyone’s life came down to a lack of needed feeling skills. He began developing new energetic teaching methods and the Heartflow Technique was born. As the application got more involved and he could not devote the practice time necessary, he taught this to Ellen to use with his patients.
When greater depth and involvement are needed, Ellen uses her innate abilities to “hear” the subconscious of the individual to rapidly unwind the blocks to growth and teach new and better feeling skills.
Attraction is the key to the success with Ellen. You really only grow and learn when there is something you want or to which you are attracted. Engaging a lesson begins only when both mind and body are attracted to that lesson. Ellen’s sessions are life skill training and limiting belief releasing experiences. Ellen is able to access information through your body and use it to shift you into a new relationship with yourself. Blockages from the past melt as Ellen helps you connect with precisely the right information, perspectives, and feelings to support your movement toward your heart's desire.
What does a session with Ellen look like? Based on the current areas of distress in your life, Ellen will use a hand strength reflex test to ask your body’s inate intelligence what feeling skills you are trying to learn now in your life and what support they need. Mental/emotional blocks to your progress are revealed such as limiting beliefs, old traumas, misinterpretations, and so on. Reality re-framing and trauma release techniques using tapping on acupuncture points or special eye movements may be used at this point to empower you to let go of the old feeling patterns. The power of Ellen’s work is in understanding that releasing the past does not work unless a new higher-toned feeling skill is learned to replace the old feelings. Through Dr. DeLapp’s Heartflow philosophy, Ellen finds the perfect feeling skill replacement to build your new place of standing with life.
Ellen will usually then go into your current life story and help you clarify your truth, your wants, and the lessons you are trying to learn through the many tools and protocols Dr. DeLapp and Ellen have invented. The objective is to create a lot more than just an “ahh-ha” moment of clarity, but rather a whole action plan to enable you to manifest the life you want.
Changing your life takes place at an unbelievable speed without the need for all the drama and suffering most other growth processes seem to attract. Ellen is there to support and guide you through this process as you make your dreams into reality!

Over the last 10 years Dr. DeLapp and Ellen have made immense strides in improving the process in both effectiveness and profundity. Last year Dr. DeLapp saw the need for a simpler and more direct method for laying the groundwork for change that would meet the growth needs of most patient concerns and Gracework was created.
Want the fastest, simplest and most profound growth available?
In 2007 Dr. DeLapp unfolded the easy yet profound personal growth process based on an ancient model of life and energy that previously had been used only prescriptively for ailments. By merging this system with the more popular energy center system of the body from a whole new perspective, Dr.DeLapp created a whole new system for working with the growth and maturation of the individual.
Why is growth and maturation important? Because it makes us healthy and happy.
In clinical trials run in early 2008 Gracework was found to improve scores on physical symptom surveys as much as 25% within 4 weeks.
Patient comments:
“I feel happier, more at peace and contentment…more able to express myself…more confident.” J.G.
“Getting things done without deliberation – doing it with energy.” R.B.
“more positive response to the world, impacting home and work” D.H.
“I have been more readily able to ask for what I want…have learned to recognize when I am in resistance and have some ability to let go…deeper more loving sense of myself” S.L.
Gracework only takes 10-15 minutes per week in the office. Homework only takes minutes per day.
In the office you will relax on your back on a treatment table. Dr. DeLapp will read your current energetic blocks and select the proper Gracework virtue set to free the block and build a new skill set to move you forward in your life. For the next several minutes Dr. DeLapp will contact pairs of acupressure points lightly for just a moment to release resistance to the new transformational state. Dr. may be working on 1 or 2 other people at the same time to allow each person sufficient processing time.
Once finished Dr. DeLapp will give you a sheet of healing sentences specifically geared for your current feeling and growth needs. The sheet gives directions on how to Tap the words into your subconscious mind through the Cranial Tap process developed by Dr. DeLapp.
There will also be a set of action words at the bottom of the sheet. Your job will be to find 3 simple ways to bring those words into actual action in your life. Find 3 simple actions that you can do the next day that will take no more than 30 – 60 seconds to perform that will reflect the action words. At the end of the day review your actions for the day and celebrate your successes and modify any failures to make them easier for the next day.
That is all there is to it!
Simple yet profound
“Yes, it feels good…more optimistic and positive…feel sunnier.” J.S.
“At times I feel a burst of self confidence and a desire to try new things.” L.T.
That’s right, try out a first Gracework at no cost to see how easy it is.
The quality of your life is entirely built out of your health and level of happiness. Gracework builds both…try it.
Gracework cost: $33 per visit or 10 visits for $299
