Bodies are weird. Let us help you figure it out.
A gem from my good friend and fellow practitioner, Dr. Shanna Rai, DC:
“Bodies are weird... let us fix it.”
Honestly, I felt that in my soul.
The truth is, the weirder the issue, the more invested I get. 😅
Because our bodies don’t just “randomly” hurt or break down — they speak. And that language is layered.
Behind every symptom, there’s a deeper story:
Physical trauma
Emotional trauma
Childhood conditioning
Mind-body-spirit dynamics
Astrology
Cultural influence
Environmental stress
Hormones, age, sex…
The list goes on.
As someone who’s spent 20+ years in chronic pain and rehabilitation, I can confidently say: there is never just one cause. Your body is the result of a lifetime of experiences — your nervous system adapting, your beliefs shaping, your body absorbing, avoiding, protecting.
You’re not just tight because you slept wrong.
You’re not weak because you’re “getting old.”
You’re not broken.
You are a living, breathing story. And your body is just trying to tell it.
That’s why when I work with clients, I’m always observing — how you move, how you hold yourself, your responses to touch, pressure, movement. All of that tells me more than a chart ever could.
And yeah… that also means I’ll ask a LOT of questions. 😅
I might try something, then pivot. Trial and error isn’t failure — it’s a part of healing. The more your body reveals, the better we can support it.
So if your practitioner is curious, observant, even a little “extra”… that’s a good thing.
Because every body is different. And healing isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Let your body tell its story. We're just here to help it be heard.
