🌟 Understanding the Body-Brain Connection in Anxiety 🌟

Anxiety impacts key structures like the HPA axis, gut-brain connection, hormones, HRV, and heart coherence. Teen lifestyles often exacerbate this with poor diet, irregular sleep, screen time, and stress.

👩‍⚕️ Osteopathy can help:
- Balance the HPA axis
- Enhance gut health
- Regulate hormones
- Improve HRV
- Promote heart coherence

💪 Plus, try weight training, yoga, breath work, meditation, and reducing screen time to manage anxiety effectively.

Stress can decrease your pain thresholds (which means an increase in pain), it can also increase levels of anxiety and impedes tissue growth or regeneration.

Stress (physical and mental) is scientifically linked to many diseases and symptoms and over a long period of time chronic stress can have profound negative consequences on your health and well-being.

The quality of the Osteopathic touch enables the body to regain a homeostatic balance and assist its own healing mechanisms.

Osteopathic treatment is ‘wholistic’ in its philosophy and methodology. While we seek to find the root cause of your dysfunction, we treat you as a whole person, using different techniques to address your body’s structures and tissues on many levels.

NOTE: disclaimer in photo below it shows osteopathic “diagnosis” through a series of investigations and assessments - however as we are NOT medical Doctors we CANNOT claim any diagnosis for any client. Instead we show osteopathic “findings” through our in-depth assessment and history intake form.

What is Osteopathy?

• Manual Therapy practice

• Emphasizes the musculoskeletal system in the maintenance of optimal health and the prevention and treatment of illness

• A philosophy of the body as an interrelated unit of structure and function; where
• Alterations in the structure of the body leads to reduced or impaired function in its organs and tissues; and
• Compensation gradually builds up until the body is unable to accommodate more change, at which time it may break down at the weakest part, even after something quite trivial.

• DOMPs (Osteopaths) focus on manual techniques to balance all the systems of the body, rather than focus on isolated problem areas

• Therapeutic interventions facilitate the patient’s inherent self healing/autoregulating abilities

the year that changed everything. It gave me time. to care for my mental health&mind. to rest my body. to focus on studying and wrapping up Osteo school. To work with so many but without OVERworking.
After a real Lifetime of adventures.. ups and downs. I needed them all. To learn to love myself first ... AND to have my heart burst right open for YOU... and share THIS Life journey with You💕

I haven’t always been this way...
•I have felt strong, but I have also felt completely hopeless and weak. I have been “on top of the world happy” but I have also been gasping for air, hyperventilating, crying in my shower, wondering if I’ll ever “snap out of it”. I have felt love, support, while surrounded by my friends, family and past loved ones, but I have also felt completely alone, misunderstood, ashamed and unworthy. I have found balance in my body and mind, but I have also been sick, malnourished, anorexic, bulimic, and self-loathing.
• I want to share this .. because the polarities are always changing for me. I still struggle. And the pain I felt and still feel is real. The memories, the experiences and the stories are real, and I am alive now trying to learn and grow from them. I don’t find this easy to share but I choose to, for the ONE person that needs to see this. You are not alone. 🤍
I know that my experience with depression, anxiety and mental illness is completely unique, but somehow maybe like so many others. All of our stories are important, no matter how it might “compare to another person’s”. Whether You share what is going on for You or not - you matter and it matters. And if You are struggling, right now.. or a month from now or years from now, there is help and there is hope.

if this message gets to You.. it’s ok, not to be ok. For those that are struggling .. today or any day.. for those that had struggled.. for those that know someone who is struggling.. You are Not alone.
