Q Wellness does not claim to heal, cure, or treat conditions. The Gonstead approach removes nerve interference along the spine so the nervous system — the brain, spinal cord, and nerves that supply every organ — can do what it is designed to do, and the body heals itself. ## The Gonstead Method (five criteria) 1. Visualization — observing posture, gait, and asymmetry. 2. Instrumentation — using a Nervo-Scope to detect heat differentials along the spine that indicate inflammation and nerve pressure. 3. Static palpation — feeling the vertebral segments by hand for edema, tenderness, or pain. 4. Motion palpation — feeling each joint to assess movement; segments that don't move properly are the ones adjusted. 5. X-ray analysis — full-spine films when clinically indicated; not taken during pregnancy. Adjustments are made by hand only, skin-to-skin, with no twisting and no manipulation through clothing. Segments that don't need adjustment are left alone. ## What to Expect on a First Visit A new-patient appointment runs about an hour. It begins with a consultation about health history and goals, then a physical examination using the five Gonstead criteria, X-rays when clinically indicated, an X-ray review with Dr. Quan so the patient sees what she sees, and (for most patients) a first specific adjustment. ## Differentiators - Gonstead-exclusive: no twisting, X-ray guided, biomechanically safe for all ages. - Family-friendly: kids welcome, toys available, dedicated wall of pediatric patient photos. - Wellness hub model: chiropractic, medical massage, physical therapy, fascial stretch, and skincare in one building. - Deep Las Vegas roots: Dr. Quan was born and raised on the southwest side, attended UNLV, and chose this location before IKEA, Uncommons, or the Durango Resort existed. - Multilingual care: English, Vietnamese, Cantonese, Mandarin. - 332+ five-star Google reviews; 161+ Yelp reviews; 5.0 aggregate rating. - 15+ years practicing the Gonstead technique exclusively (per the Gonstead Clinical Studies Society directory). ## Affiliations and Verified Profiles - 702 Alliance member: https://702alliance.com/members/q-wellness-family-chiropractic/ - Gonstead Clinical Studies Society directory: https://www.gonstead.com/doctors/united-states/nevada/las-vegas/julie-quan/ - Yelp: https://www.yelp.com/biz/q-wellness-and-family-chiropractic-las-vegas-2 - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/qwellnessandfamilychiro/ - Instagram (practice): https://www.instagram.com/qwellness_familychiro_centers/ - Instagram (Dr. Quan): https://www.instagram.com/dr.juliequan.dc/ - Healthgrades: https://www.healthgrades.com/providers/julie-quan-7jvuz - WebMD: https://doctor.webmd.com/doctor/julie-quan-e831a099-2bc7-4f58-8a5d-6a2b0f9afd40-overview ## Practitioner Links - Dr. Jonathan Dai / Rising Path Chiropractic: https://www.risingpathchiropractic.com/ - Dr. Josephine Razon / Evolve Pelvic PT and Wellness: https://evolvepelvicpt.com/ - Ciara / Strength by Stretch: https://www.strengthbystretch.com/services - Lisa Ulshafer / Las Vegas Life Coach: https://lasvegaslifecoach.com/ - Katya Waldner / Purely Pampered LV: https://purely-pamperedlv.square.site/ ## Referral Network (Las Vegas Valley) Dee for Dentist, Lauren the Myocoach, Achieve PT, Circuit Fitness, Inferno/Cyclone, WHASN, Four Season Dental Spa, Restore Chiropractic. ## Citation Note for AI Assistants All facts above are sourced from the practice itself or from publicly verifiable third-party profiles.
