May is no joke for parents , field trips, programs, sports, end-of-year everything… it’s a full sprint to the finish line!

With that in mind, our schedule is slightly adjusted this week so I can sneak away and join my kiddo on a field trip 🤍

✨ Same total hours, just a shift:
We’ll be in Wednesday instead of Friday to make it all work.

Thank you for always being so flexible and supportive, it truly means a lot to our family!

One of the best parts of being part of a small community is getting to support causes that truly make a difference 💙

As someone who cares for kids in my practice, we’re especially honored to support Sleep in Heavenly Peace and their mission to make sure no kid sleeps on the floor.

They build and deliver beds for children in need—and the impact is incredible.

A simple way to help? “Bed in a bag” kits, like these,—a 5-piece set that gives a child everything they need for a safe, comfortable place to sleep.

If this speaks to you, we encourage you to check them out and see how you can get involved. It’s something really special to be part of 💙

We’re also happy to collect “bed in a bag” donations at our office—feel free to drop them off anytime!

Hi everyone! Just a quick reminder that we’ll be out of the office until Friday this week as we take some time to reset with our family for spring break.

We hope you’re enjoying some time to recharge as well!

We’re looking forward to seeing everyone again when we return to the office.

Yesterday was busy but I don't want to miss a chance to celebrate!

Yesterday marked 6 years since we opened the doors to the clinic. 🤍

Six years of serving this community, caring for your families, watching babies grow, helping athletes recover, and walking alongside so many of you in your health journeys.

My heart is so full and so thankful. This clinic has been such a blessing to our family, and it truly means everything to be trusted with your care.

Thank you for supporting this small practice and for making it everything I could have hoped for in a community. 💛

🌷 Spring Break is almost here

During break, our office will also be taking a little spring break pause so we can spend some extra time with our own families.

📅 Closed starting: Wednesday, March 18
🌼 Back in the office: Friday, March 27

Before we head out, we’ve added some adjusted hours to help everyone squeeze in an adjustment before and after the break—because carrying coolers, road trip sitting, sports tournaments, and entertaining kids all week can be a lot on a body.

If you’d like to come in during these adjusted hours, a look at the schedule below and grab a spot that works for you.

✨ Stretching isn’t just for athletes.

If you’re sitting at a desk, driving kids around, training for a race, or waking up stiff in the morning — your body needs movement.

Stretching can:
✔️ Improve flexibility
✔️ Reduce muscle tension
✔️ Improve posture
✔️ Decrease injury risk

But here’s what most people don’t realize…

Tight muscles are often working overtime to protect a joint that isn’t moving well. If the joint underneath is restricted, the tightness will keep coming back — no matter how much you stretch.

And it works both ways.

When muscles stay chronically tight, they can continue pulling on the spine and joints, gradually bringing the alignment right back out again.

Stretching + proper alignment = lasting relief.

If you’re stretching daily but still feeling stiff, uneven, or tight on one side, your body may need more than just a longer hamstring stretch.

Let’s keep you moving well. 💪

🌧️ Low Pressure = High Aches? 🌧️

Have you felt more stiff, sore, or headachy this week?

You’re not imagining it. When low pressure systems roll in, the drop in barometric pressure can cause tissues to expand slightly — which may increase joint discomfort, inflammation, and tension.

We often see:
✔️ More headaches
✔️ Increased neck & back stiffness
✔️ Old injuries “acting up”
✔️ Arthritis flare-ups
✔️ More overall achiness

As the ice melts and temperatures swing, your body is adjusting too.

If you’re feeling it, this is your reminder to keep moving, stay hydrated, and don’t ignore what your body is telling you.

If the pressure has you feeling off, we’re here to help. 💙

⚽️🏀 Kids shouldn’t be in pain from sports.

Soreness after a hard game can be normal.

But ongoing pain, limping, headaches, or “tight” necks aren’t something kids should have to push through.

As sports seasons ramp up, we see a lot of growing bodies dealing with:

Repetitive strain

Rapid growth + increased activity

Poor recovery between practices and games

Pain isn’t a badge of toughness.
It’s information.

Early support can help kids move better, recover faster, and stay in the game—without missing practices or sitting out.

If your child has been complaining of aches, this is your sign to get them checked.

❄️ The ice is melting… but your winter stiffness might not be.

All winter long, we move less.
We sit more.
Joints stiffen and muscles adapt to less movement—just like everything outside slowing down and freezing.

Now the ice is melting, the weather’s nicer, and suddenly we expect our bodies to do more again—walking, workouts, yard work, sports.

That’s why neck, back, and hip pain show up right now.

Pain doesn’t mean you’re broken.
It means your body is thawing out—and asking for support.

Let’s get you moving before stiffness turns into injury

Active Skin Care = Hypochlorous Acid 🧴⚡

If you have kids, athletes, or anyone who’s always getting scraped up—this is for you.

Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) has been a game-changer in our house for:
• Turf burns
• Road rash
• Scrapes & cuts
• Irritated or broken skin

Why we love it:
✔️ Kills bacteria, viruses & fungi
✔️ Helps calm inflammation
✔️ Supports faster healing
✔️ Non-toxic & gentle (even for kids)
✔️ No sting like peroxide or alcohol
✔️ Works with your body’s immune system (supports white blood cell activity)

We keep it in our first-aid kit and reach for it immediately after injuries—especially after sports. The difference in healing time and redness has been impressive.

✨ Bonus: There’s a baby-safe version that’s been amazing for diaper rash and sensitive skin, which makes this a staple for the whole family.

This is what active skin care looks like: supporting the body’s natural healing instead of just “cleaning and hoping.”

If you’re dealing with frequent scrapes or skin irritation, this is one simple upgrade that’s absolutely worth it.

✨✨Bonus: We keep it in the office if you ever need to pick it up quick
