Thermogenesis / Hot & Cold Therapy

That dude in the truck cuts you off at the zipper merge, we have a giant deadline coming up, and your kid is throwing a tantrum in the back seat. Stress is a bugger. But we can learn to handle it a LOT better.

How? Just like any exercise or habit. From repeated and conscious attention to it. Simply by forcing ourselves into micro-stressors helps us mitigate our responses to more expansive ones. This is not akin to being afraid of heights and deciding to 'get over it' and walk a tightrope between two skyscrapers. Go back and read the first sentence of this paragraph again. Repeated and conscious attention. We have to be mindful and deliberate with how we proceed through the stressors.

Recovery > Exercise
Recovery > Exercise

We usually think that we exercise or work out to build muscle, but that's dead wrong. Our activity and performance actually strains the tissue and stresses the body. So how do we get bigger, stronger, faster?! RECOVERY.

It is impossible to increase athletic or daily performance without adequate recovery. For the most simple analogy, think about how your energy levels are after a 5-day stint of less than ideal sleep patterns. Yeah, you're dragging it, right?

What's in a name?! Diagnosis vs. Symptoms
What's in a name?! Diagnosis vs. Symptoms

Don’t let the fancy words fool you - a diagnosis is just a collection of symptoms that you’re experiencing.
And the symptoms are just a collection of inputs and outputs from brain to body.
That’s it. Nothing complex about it.
This is where our tagline of ‘find the why - fix the why’ comes into play heavily. Figuring out what the pain or limitation you’re experiencing is easy. Addressing why that’s happening is where things get a little more complex. We need to dive into your story. Potentially, your relationship with pain as well.

We Are ALL Athletes!
We Are ALL Athletes!

What is an athlete? This may be an easy question for some people to answer. It could mean somebody who plays sports. It could be someone who excels at a certain sport or is great at multiple different sports. For me, it is a bit of a loaded question. I personally define an athlete as a person who has risen to the top of their respective field. And that field could be their sport, profession, or hobby.

“Are you a real doctor?” It’s a question we see ALL THE TIME. And honestly, it doesn’t offend us! Rather, it shows us how much (or little) the world really knows about who chiropractors are and what we can do!
