HypnoBirthing® Classes at Vive Health Group 🍃

It’s not too late to join the first series of the year! Prepare for a calm, empowered, and supported birth with Dr. Charmagne Sia Lu’s HypnoBirthing® classes, now underway at Vive Health Group. 🫄

HypnoBirthing® is rooted in the belief that birth is a natural, physiological process and that, when fear and tension are removed, the body can give birth with greater ease and comfort. Through guided relaxation, education, and partner involvement, couples learn how to break the fear–tension–pain cycle and support the body’s innate ability to birth calmly and confidently. 🙏

Part 2/2 series with Dr. Shelby Garn:

Feeling drained isn’t always about doing too much; it can be a sign of nervous system dysregulation. According to Dr. Shelby Garn, common signs include:

⚡ Wired but tired at night
🕑 Afternoon energy crashes
😵‍💫 Feeling easily overwhelmed

Dr. Garn recommends consistent, gentle habits (or habit stacking) to signal safety and support regulation:

✔ Morning light exposure
✔ Journaling
✔ Vitamin D support
✔ Hydration + electrolytes
✔ Gentle movement (walking, yoga, stretching)
✔ Grounding practices

At Vive Integrative Health, we also offer a Lifestyle Impact Assessment that measures heart rate variability (HRV) to assess vagal tone and nervous system health. 📝

Nervous System Regulation: Your Autonomic Nervous System 🍃

Part 1/2 series with Dr. Shelby Garn:

Many health concerns, from digestion and hormones to sleep and energy, are deeply connected to the nervous system, yet it’s often overlooked in treatment. 🩺

Dr. Shelby Garn explains in her latest blog that the autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulates automatic functions such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, hormone signalling, and the stress response. When stress, poor sleep, inflammation, or illness keep the body in fight-or-flight, the nervous system struggles to shift into rest-and-digest mode. 🙏

Low vagal tone can show up as:

😟 Anxiety
🍽️ Digestive issues
💤 Ongoing fatigue
😡 Poor stress tolerance
⏰ Slower recovery

Research continues to show that healing is limited when the nervous system isn’t supported, regardless of the quality of the treatment plan. With the holiday season approaching, nervous system regulation matters more than ever. 🎄

The Impact of Age on Fertility: What Women in Their 30s and 40s Can Do 🍃

🥚 Why egg quality, hormones, and stress matter more than you think

Patient Love at Vive Integrative Health 🍃

“I’ve been going to Vive Integrative Health for more than four years, and it has been a life changer for my physical health. I have seen improvement in areas that I saw as impossible to heal (SIBO, hormone-related issues, and so on), and even my mood has improved. I love how my health is seen from Vive’s holistic point of view, and every treatment I receive, I am able to see the results right away or a couple of months later. The best part is that I know the root cause of the issue is addressed.”

- Vivian, Vive Health Patient

We believe in whole-person care that looks beyond symptoms to uncover and treat the root cause so that you can experience real, lasting change. 🙏
