Let's talk B Vitamin!

What is Vitamin B?
Vitamin B is a nutrient essential for energy production, brain function, and overall cellular health! There are 8 B-Vitamins, each with its own unique function and role.

What does Vitamin B do?
1. Aids in energy production
2. Supports nervous system function
3. Essential for cell regeneration & repair
4. Aids in Hormone Production

B Vitamins (specifically B9), are crucial for proper nervous system development. So if you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant, make sure you are getting your B-Vitamins!

What are signs of Vitamin B deficiency?
1. Fatigue/Low Energy
2. Numbness in the hands and/or feet
3. Cognitive Issues (memory loss, confusion, etc.)

How much Vitamin B should I be taking?
First, you should consult your primary care provider about getting your Vitamin B levels checked! Each B Vitamin has its own recommended daily allowance (RDA); however, I typically recommend that patients take a B-Complex to ensure they’re getting all 8 B vitamins.

Does your kiddo complain of knee and/or heel pain?

Youth sports are more competitive than ever, and with year-round training becoming the new norm, overuse injuries in growing athletes are increasingly common. Two of the most frequent causes of activity-related pain in kids and teens are Osgood-Schlatter and Sever’s disease.

Osgood-Schlatter is an overuse injury that affects the growth plate at the top of the shinbone, just below the kneecap. It most commonly occurs in boys ages 12-15 and girls ages 10-13.

Sever's disease is the heel equivalent of Osgood-Schlatter. It affects the growth plate at the back of the heel where the Achilles tendon attaches. It most commonly occurs in boys ages 8-14 and girls ages 7-12.

Both condition are common among athletes who participate in sports such as soccer, basketball, and track. Symptoms include knee pain, heel pain, swelling, a noticeable bump at the top of the shin, pain that worsens with running, jumping, or kneeling, tight calf muscles, and pain when squeezing the calf.

Treatment & Management
1. Activity Modification
2. Ice: 15–20 minutes after activity
3. Stretching & Strengthening
4. Supportive Tools: Patellar tendon strap & heel cup

While the names may sound severe, both conditions are common and manageable. The biggest risk is ignoring symptoms and pushing through pain, which can prolong recovery. Once skeletal maturity is reached, the pain resolves, and most athletes return fully to their sport without lasting limitations.

Let’s talk Vitamin D!

What is Vitamin D?
Vitamin D is a nutrient AND hormone that is essential for bone health and immune function. Your body naturally makes Vitamin D from the sun; however, when you live in areas such as Northern New York, where your sun exposure is limited, you're likely deficient in Vitamin D.

What is the Function of Vimtain D?
1. Maintains Bone Strength
2. Supports Immunity
3. Aids in Mood Regulation
4. Reduces Inflammation
5. Aids in Glucose Metabolism (aka breaking down of sugar)

Signs You May Be Vitamin D Deficient
1. Fatigue
2. Muscle Achiness
3. Frequent Sickness
4. Poor Mood (especially in the winter!)

How much Vitamin D should I be taking?
First, you should consult your primary care provider about getting your Vitamin D levels checked!

The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for Vitamin D is 400-800 IU/day; however, if you live in colder climates with limited sun exposure (Northern New York), supplementing with 5,000-10,000 IU/day may be needed!

Do you have lower back and hip tension, and also have a yoga ball at home?

Here are some easy exercises to help alleviate some of that tension!

Diaphragmatic breathing, also called “belly breathing,” helps to restore proper breathing mechanics and supports your body from the inside out.

Most of us spend the day breathing shallowly into our chest—especially when we’re stressed. Over time, this can contribute to neck tension, low back pain, headaches, and even pelvic floor dysfunction.

Why Is It Important?
✔ Helps calm the nervous system
✔ Reduces muscle tension in the neck, shoulders, and lower back
✔ Improves core stability and posture
✔ Supports spinal movement and coordination
✔ Enhances recovery and overall body awareness

For many patients, learning to breathe properly is a missing piece in pain relief and long-term healing.

Due to the repetitive motions of swimming, it can take a toll on the shoulders. If you’re dealing with tightness, pain, or limited range of motion, cupping therapy may be a great addition to your care.

How cupping helps swimmers:
- Relieves muscle tension in overworked shoulder and upper-back muscles
- Improves blood flow to support healing and recovery
- Helps break up fascial restrictions that can limit motion
- Reduces pain and supports better shoulder mobility

When combined with chiropractic care and rehab exercises, cupping can help address both pain and the underlying movement issues contributing to it.

I discovered chiropractic care when I was a kiddo, and it has been my dream to run a family practice ever since. Thank you to all the families who trust me with their care.

I want to make sure that I’m always growing as a practitioner, knowing that I always provide the best care possible for my patients. With that said, I’m excited to share that I’ve decided to extend my education, and will be pursuing a Diplomate in Pediatrics through the American Chiropractic Association.

I’m so excited to expand my knowledge, and provided even better care to my patients 0-16 years of age.
