Why can we see in someone's face when they have stress in their body and nervous system? This is a short clip of Dr. Don being interviewed on a podcast about helping people become more regulated.
Dr Don is in TODAY! With an unusual availability for one new person and two regular spots!
We all need people to co regulate with but especially children do! #polyvagaltheory #chiropractic #chiropracticcare

Frequently asked questions!❓Chiropractic adjustments are safe, gentle, and non invasive! There are many different ways to adjust based on your comfort level and what your body responds best to! From manual adjustments by hand, or the activator tool we use which gives a gentle impulse or a “click” to the joint! We are here to make sure you are comfortable and can leave your appointment with better function than when you came in!💪🏼 A regular adjustment is quick, efficient and effective! We like to have you in and out of our office in under 20 mins so the time commitment for you is minimal and you can continue on with your day throughout your care plan!✨ Chiropractic care is for EVERYONE! From infants, to elderly we take care of the whole family because everyone deserves to live life with optimal functioning!🥰 Chiro helps with MUCH more than just pain! When we work at optimizing our nervous system, we optimize how our body functions. Not only in movement, but in the everyday VITAL LIFE processes our body carries out to keep us alive, thriving, and healing! ❤️🩹Questions?

Great little exercise to fire the hamstrings and glutes- and help with balance. This is the advanced version. You can do the same thing standing on the floor and hanging onto something for balance...
Give it a try!😍

GOAL: To express life fully, through a clear & connected nervous system!✨
Vitality - the power giving continuance of life, present in all living things🤍
Here at SouthSide, we practice within the life model of care! We focus on facilitating a process where people become more clear, connected, & at ease. In other words…we want to improve your LIFE POTENTIAL! Your potential to self-heal, self-regulate (handle stress) & find clarity in life is all thanks to a high functioning nervous system!
We cannot be vital with a distorted nervous system, & it takes time to get our nervous system back to a state of ease. This is why it’s like climbing a mountain as Dr. Hailey explains!

We miss you! Do you have an appt this week? Dr Don only has a couple spots on Thursday left and is thenFULL...don’t be disappointed 😍
Your chiropractic care can continue at home too!💪🏼 Your glutes influence the movement and alignment of the pelvis & lumbar spine. It’s important to have a proper balance between glute strength & flexibility to stabilize our sacroiliac (SI) joint, lumbar spine, & reduce tension! Our SI joint delivers loads from our trunk to our lower limbs. If this joint is unstable, or moves excessively, it can cause pressure on our joints & disks in the lumbar spine & pelvis. The gluteus maximus muscle specifically helps stabilize this joint, therefore it needs to be strong and flexible enough through various ranges of motion to help support it! On the other hand, a very stiff/locked up SI joint can also lead to spinal stress. Chiropractic adjustments and stretching helps to slowly restore our natural curves of our spine & relieve muscle stiffness protecting the joint, so it can move properly!Have questions about how chiropractic can benefit you? DM us for more information or phone to book an appointment with Dr. Don MacDonald or Dr. Hailey Lutz!👨⚕️👩🏼⚕️
