Tattoos & Your Body: Know the Facts 🎨💉

I love tattoos, art, and self-expression. No judgment—your body, your art. Just know the facts.

I myself wanted a tattoo for my 50th birthday and that's when I started deep diving into what it does to the body. I have some autoimmune issues and for me it was an absolute no—you cannot do it cuz it can put you in the hospital. ⚠️

Some of the best conversations I have with patients on my treatment table is talking about their tattoos. 🖤

Here's some news you're not going to like to hear. Don't get mad at the messenger because I care—I'm going to speak up about it.

Tattoos are toxic to your lymphatic system. 💀

Every tattoo = microtrauma; your immune system is working overtime. 💪

Ink particles travel to lymph nodes and can stay there for decades. 🩸

Many pigments contain toxic metals and chemicals. Your body treats them as a toxic foreign object it wants to expel. ☣️

Heavy or frequent tattooing = chronic low-grade inflammation 🔥

Healthier ink options exist—vegan, plant-based, heavy-metal–reduced—but they are not risk-free. 🌿

Ask your artist for MSDS sheets and ingredient transparency if you care about your long-term lymph and immune health. 📄

Support your body:
💧 Replenish with healthy hydration
🏃‍♂️ Move/exercise daily
🔥 Sweat/sauna
💆‍♀️ Get lymphatic massages monthly
😴 Sleep
🥗 Healthy, clean nutrition
⏳ Space it out

Monthly lymphatic maintenance and detoxing makes all the difference in the world. ✨

Love your tattoos. ❤️
Love your body. 💛
Know the facts. 📌
Respect the ride. 👣🐾

Got any good Thanksgiving survival tips?

So, the holidays are stressful!
Many of us don’t survive the holidays very well, and my patient proved it yesterday.

Y'all, I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe, but it's also a real issue and a trigger for so many people.

So, yesterday Mr. Turkey Head patient comes in looking like he crawled out of a car wreck—neck tight, eye twitching, thumb chewed raw… all from spending Thanksgiving with his in-laws. 😬.

First thing I said is, Man, what in the hell happened to you?

I fell out laughing when he said it was all his mother-in-law's fault cuz she was fussing him for curving the turkey all wrong at dinner.
It pi**ed him off so badly his eyes started twitching! And the day went downhill from there. He said every year they go to Houston and it is always a nightmare and he starts twitching before he leaves his own house, and calling me for an emergency reset.

All he could think about was slamming that turkey over his mother-in-law’s head like Joey from Friends! 🤣🤣🤣

Family chaos hits hard, y’all. What’s your secret holiday survival hack? Drop your stories below 👇

P.S....If you need help dealing with holiday stress? Book an appointment and let’s get you through it without losing your mind and throwing turkeys at your family! 🤣🦃

🔥 Holy 💩 Batman! The Last Month is Not Playing!

⚡ Burnout, crying, shakes, aches, injuries, nervous systems fried.

🌬 Weather, fall shift, changing light—it hits hard.

👀 Tune in - dial in to your body and notice patterns before it crushes you.

💔 Sitting with emotions can feel like a nervous system breakdown.
Scary—but stuffing it makes it worse.

😢 Everyone’s been crying and shaking on my table lately… including me.

🤝 I feel it with you. Every bit of it.

🎄 Holidays + stress + emotions = exhausting pile-up.

🧠 Manage, tune in, listen, guide and love your messy emotions—they respond and love structure and care.

🔥 Move, breathe, growl, roar, make a mean face—dump the adrenaline, take your power back.

💪 Notice. Prepare. Reset.

Quick reset Tools!

💨 Cortisol + Stress Reset Buttons -

💥 Shake It Off
Shake your hands, arms, legs, and shoulders for 20–30 seconds.
Loosen everything. Pretend you’re shaking out water.

💥 Clench & Drop
Make fists, tense your whole body, then drop it all at once.
Do this 3 times. Feels like letting go of tension physically.

💥 Fake Slam Exhale
Take a deep breath in your nose, belly chest drop, then exhale like you’re slamming a 3 point layup! Nothing but whoosh...
15 seconds. Powerful release.

💥 Ice Cube Reset
Hold an ice cube in your hand or fore head for 10–15 seconds.
Focus on the cold, breathe through it—body snaps out of fight-or-flight.

💥 Tiger Breath 🐯
Big inhale through your nose, open mouth, stick out tongue, HAAA and Hiss it out.
3 rounds. Shocks the nervous system into calm.

💥 Growl & Mean Face
Make a growl or angry face for 5–10 seconds.
Releases tension stored in the body.

Don't tell people to calm down.. that doesn't work. Like ever? 😂

Do this instead.. hey, take a moment with me, let's do a reset. 🥰

Stress Resets – slow, grounding practices for nervous system regulation:

🌿 Vagus Breath
Inhale for 4 counts, exhale for 8 counts.
Repeat 6 rounds. Calms the nervous system instantly.

🌿 Toe Bounce + Hip Roll
Bounce lightly on your toes, roll your hips for 20–30 seconds.

🌿 Table Lean Melt
Hands on a counter or table, let your body and arms stretch and lean out, let your chest drop, sigh out slowly for 20 seconds.

🌿 Belly Button Breath
Place your hand on your belly button.
With each inhale, push your belly out toward the world.
With each exhale, sink it back down, deep into the Earth, not up, not toward the sky.
Feel grounded and centered.

🌿 Eye Softening Reset
Soften your gaze, widen peripheral vision for 10 seconds.
Relaxes tension around the eyes and calms your nervous system.

🌿 Cuddle Love Time
A lot of it. Quiet time with yourself, loved ones, friends, your animals, or in nature.
Let yourself be held, surrender, get connected, and softened.

If you need a deeper reset give me a call. 🤗

🥰🤗❤️

Good morning Beasties!

So, check this out... Your body has zero chill when it wants your attention!

You try to avoid the hard uncomfortable things… and suddenly your shoulder’s like,

“Oh hey, here’s a pain you didn’t order.”
Your stomach’s flipping, your eye’s twitching, your nerves are sending Morse code like, “Handle! Your! Sh*t!”

On a somatic level, your body is basically like a terrorist toddler at Walmart having a screaming meme hissy fit on the candy aisle cuz you said no.

Stop.
Pause,

Breathe...

Your body is screaming at you ..We need to deal with this.

And honestly? It’s right.

Your growth, your calm, your next-level self — they’re sitting exactly in the thing you keep dodging.
Face it.
Handle it.

Your body will never regret the truth, regardless of the outcome.

Let your body stop having to scream at you like a dramatic lil toddler!

If you need help with a reset give me a call when you're ready. 🙏🤗🥰
