Research links spine to brain wellness.

Your spine is doing a lot more than just holding you up. It is constantly talking to your brain.

New findings show that chiropractic adjustments can actually increase Alpha activity in the Default Mode Network. That is the part of the brain often linked to how we process anxiety and depression.
Basically, when we adjust the spine, we are helping the nervous system calm down.

After 4 weeks of care, patients in the study showed specific improvements.
> Better sleep quality
> Improved mood
> Less fatigue

We hear this often at the clinic.
Patients come in for a physical issue, but they mention they just feel... better. Lighter.
That is the connection at work.

When we correct a subluxation, we are removing interference so your body can function the way it was designed to.
This is a huge part of what helps you Discover Better Health.

Have you ever noticed you sleep better after an adjustment?

Just as a musician's hands learn chords through consistent repetition, your spine adopts its patterns over time. Changing these requires dedicated, repeated effort, not just a single adjustment. We prioritize evidence-based understanding.

We see this disconnect often.

Someone understands that mastering the guitar takes years of practice. Hours of clumsy fingers finding the right frets until, eventually, it becomes automatic.

But that same person often expects their spine to change in one visit.

Your body learned your current patterns through repetition.
Maybe it was a decade of sitting at a desk on Red River Road. Or years of heavy lifting. Or just the way you learned to walk after an old ankle sprain.

Your body is smart. It adapted to what you did most.

Now, it needs repetition to learn something new.

There is no hack.

Biology doesn't care about our schedule. It cares about consistency. When we provide care, we aren't just "fixing" a pain point. We are interrupting a deeply ingrained habit in your nervous system and teaching it a better way to function.

--> It takes time
--> It takes patience
--> It takes showing up

You can't practice once and know the song. And you can't adjust once and fix the pattern.

We’re here to help you Discover Better Health, but it’s a journey we take together.

Does this analogy resonate with you?

Medical evidence shows 84.8% of sciatica patients experience pain 'walking back' to the source. This phenomenon, called centralization, is a clear indicator of positive change and recovery.

Centralization: The real sign of healing.

I see this pattern constantly.
Patient comes in with leg pain shooting down to their foot. We start care. Weeks later... their leg feels better but now their back hurts.

They think they're getting worse. They aren't.

The pain is walking itself back to the source.
It’s retreating from the extremities back to the spine.

This is called centralization.
And it is actually a sign of healing.

Recovery isn't linear. Sometimes it feels like two steps forward, one step sideways. But if that pain is moving up, you are likely winning.

We want you to understand your body, not fear it.
That is how you Discover Better Health.

Has your pain ever "moved" during recovery?

Your body runs on a powerful, often overlooked operating system. What if its deep-seated 'software' patterns hold the key to understanding your persistent health questions? Discover this hidden influence.

Dr. Bruce Lipton’s research changed the conversation on healing for many of us.

95% of your daily behavior comes from subconscious programming you picked up before age 7.

And that is a staggering number.

When we feel unwell, the default reaction is often to ask, "What is broken?" But viewed through this lens, the body isn't broken. It’s simply running old software.

We see this physical "programming" constantly at the practice.

The spine becomes subluxated or misaligned, often repeating the same stress responses it learned years ago. It’s a physical loop.

Our approach at Santin Chiropractic focuses on interrupting those loops.

-> We adjust the spine to restore proper function
-> We look at the whole picture with honesty and integrity
-> We help you move away from old patterns so you can actually heal

You aren't fighting a broken machine. You are just due for an update.

That is how we help Thunder Bay Discover Better Health.

Many common body discomforts have root causes often overlooked. Our expert insights reveal what your body truly needs, based on established principles of wellness.

Your body talks to you all day.

But in the rush of life, it is easy to tune out the signals until they become too loud to ignore. We see this often at the clinic. You push through, hoping it goes away.

Here are five things your body might be trying to say:

➡️ That heaviness in your shoulders often signals a postural pattern. When your spine is misaligned, your muscles have to work double-time just to hold you up.

➡️ Waking up stiff? Your joints are likely asking for movement. While rest feels safe, controlled motion is often what feeds the joints.

➡️ Headaches can be deceptive. They frequently start in the neck, not the head. A cervical subluxation can refer pain upwards.

➡️ Unexplained fatigue. This can be your nervous system working overtime to adapt to stress or imbalance in the body.

➡️ Pain that moves. This one surprises people. It is usually a sign of healing. As your body adjusts and mechanics improve, sensations shift.

You don't have to live with the guesswork.

Our goal is simple: honesty, integrity, and getting you back to the activities you love in Thunder Bay.

Which one of these signals have you noticed lately?

If achieving health were simple, everyone would thrive.
Real progress begins by embracing your body's complex, continuous learning journey.

I've been in practice for years now.
But here is the thing I am still learning: Every patient walks in and teaches me something new.

The human body is endlessly complex.

You realize pretty quickly that what works perfectly for one person doesn't always work for another. The biology is different, the daily stress is different, the history is different.

The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.

That might sound strange coming from a doctor, but that is what keeps this work interesting for us. It forces us to listen harder. To look closer at what is actually going on rather than just assuming we have the answer before you even sit down.

We aim to help you Discover Better Health here in Thunder Bay, but that process requires honesty.

It requires admitting that your care plan needs to be as unique as you are.

→ Your body signals are unique
→ Healing takes its own time
→ We figure it out together

We want to get you back to the things you love. But we do it by respecting the complexity of your body, not by ignoring it.

Do you feel like your health concerns are usually heard and understood?
Drop a "🙌" if you appreciate a doctor who listens more than they speak.

Stop waiting to be fixed. Start understanding your body's incredible capacity to heal itself. This shift changes everything about your wellness journey.

Most people walk through our doors on Fort William Road looking for a repair job. They are in pain and just want it gone. And I get that. But there is a massive difference between being "fixed" and actually healing.

The truth is, I don’t heal you. Dr. Carla doesn’t heal you.

Your body does that work.

Our role at Santin Chiropractic is simply to remove the interference. Think of your nervous system as the master controller of everything you do. When your spine is misaligned or subluxated, that communication breaks down. We provide the adjustment to clear that path.

The adjustment creates the window for change.

Once that interference is gone, your nervous system takes over and does what it was designed to do. We are essentially giving your body permission to function correctly again.

That perspective shifts how you live. You stop looking for a cure and start supporting your own physiology.

-> You prioritize movement because your body craves it
-> You view food as fuel for recovery
-> You see chiropractic care as maintenance rather than a panic button

Health isn't something we hand to you. It is something you have to discover.

Do you trust your body's ability to bounce back?

What if your health 'repair bill' grows?

We all understand routine car maintenance. Why do we often treat our bodies differently? Discover the universal principle that reveals why waiting for health issues to worsen is always the most expensive choice.

Think about that subtle rattle in your dashboard.
You turn up the radio. You ignore it. You tell yourself, "I'll deal with it next week."
But deep down? You know the noise isn't going away.
It’s actually getting expensive.

We do the exact same thing with our health.

We feel "off." Maybe a bit stiff in the morning or misaligned after a long drive.
But life is busy.
So we wait.
We wait until the "check engine" light turns into smoke pouring out from under the hood.

Here is the thing though.
Maintenance costs less than repair.
-> In your car.
-> In your home.
-> In your body.

This is the conversation we have constantly at Santin Chiropractic.
We want to catch those issues *before* they stop you from doing the things you love. Honest, integrity-based care means helping you stay mobile... not just fixing you when you're stuck.

You don't wait for your car's engine to seize before changing the oil.
Let’s give your spine that same respect.
