🌈 When spinal health is ideal, a perfect column runs from the spinal cord to your brain. 🌈

Shifts in this vertebral alignment impacts posture, lead to muscular discomfort, and, in worse cases, bone-on-bone pain, but can extend throughout the body with extensive repercussions. 😢

The goal is to keep the spine and nervous system free of structural interferences that everyday stressors create. 🙏 Prioritizing spinal alignment can unlock your body’s natural potential for health and healing. 💛 A chiropractic approach is holistic and encompasses the entire body’s health and wellbeing.

🌻 We group our recommendations into the 5 Essentials, which consist of chiropractic care, nutrition, mindset, exercise, and minimizing toxin exposure! 🌻

👎 Interference in your spine and spinal injuries can occur in many ways from trauma, stress and posture. 💛 Ask our office how we can help you take a natural approach to your health.

♥ The thyroid gland impacts how fast your heart beats, body temperature, your breathing, menstrual cycles, and what most of us know too well: Whether you lose or gain weight easily. 😳

“In fact, there’s not a single cell in the body that doesn’t depend on thyroid hormones in some way,” says Izabella Wentz, PharmD, in Hashimoto’s Protocol, “In other words: trouble here can lead to trouble just about everywhere.” 💔

With Hashimoto’s, your body mistakenly thinks the thyroid gland as a foreign invader and wages an immune attack with two antibodies that attack your thyroid.

🎀 Hashimoto’s impacts women about 10 times more than men, typically between the ages of 30 – 50. This autoimmune disease can create numerous symptoms, including weight gain, depression, fatigue, and muscle and joint pain.

👉 Chiropractic care can address those issues as well as other problems related to Hashimoto’s including arthritis, generalized pain, and back pain.

Thyroid imbalances oftentimes require working closely with a healthcare professional and sometimes several professionals. ❤ At our office we can help by discussing medication alternatives and other strategies to support thyroid health.

– Avoid polycarbonate drinking bottles with Bisphenol A
– Don’t heat food in plastic containers

💄Environmental Toxins–Environmental endocrine disruptors (EEDs) are toxins that imitate hormones. By blocking or altering hormone functions, they may contribute to an increase in hormone-related cancers, such as those of the breasts, testicles, and prostate.

Stressed? 💔 Read on.

There are so many things our modern society deems “normal” that are actually awful for our stress hormones. 👎 Working 50+ hour weeks, watching the overly negative news every morning, constantly trying to climb the corporate ladders and committing to social events we wanted to say no to are a few examples. ❤ In order to remove as much stress from your life as possible, you have to be willing to assess the decisions you make on a daily basis and how they’re affecting your stress regularly.

⭐ Exercising regularly is one of the best ways to reduce cortisol levels. 🏊‍♀️ Gentle aerobic exercise, like walking, swimming, and jogging are especially beneficial for lowering cortisol and increasing endorphins.⭐ Be cautious to not let your exercise become too strenuous, which can have the opposite effect on your stress levels. 👈

😳 The release of cortisol, especially when it’s chronic, changes the way your body metabolizes glucose and when your body is unable to efficiently process the glucose (carbs) that you eat, you can become insulin resistant. 🙏 Ask our office how we can help you with balancing your hormones.

🍊🍒 Eat your way to better health! 👉

✨ Molecules with unpaired electrons are called free radicals, which means they are not stable and can attack other cells.

🔥 As your cells work to create energy, fight off toxins, and defend against illness, free radicals are created.

😍 Antioxidants are the reaction your body uses to minimize free radical damage by pairing antioxidants with unpaired electrons before the unpaired electrons attack your cells.

Prevention:
– Eat antioxidant-rich foods–antioxidants protect your cells against damage caused by free radicals. 🍓
– 🌈 Colorful fruits, berries, and vegetables, plus drinks like coffee and green tea have high antioxidant content ☕
– Take glutathione–this is the most powerful naturally occurring antioxidant in all human cells, and is often referred to as the body’s “master antioxidant.” 😲
