Dr. Ted has been seeing and referring patients to Dr. Suzanne Shaw for over 5 years, and he's seen firsthand the incredible impact chiropractic care can have—especially when it’s done right. In this episode, we dig into everything from helping colicky babies to reducing the need for surgery. If you’ve ever been curious (or skeptical) about chiropractic, this is a must-watch. 🎧💡

Let me know what you think—I’d love to hear your thoughts!

🌀 Is chiropractic care just about back pain? Think again.

In our latest Take On Healthcare episode, we talk with chiropractor Dr. Suzanne Shaw, who’s helped everyone from newborns with colic to athletes with injuries—and even adults looking to age more gracefully.

✅ Learn why some people don’t “hold” adjustments
✅ How emotional stress and posture literally twist your spine
✅ The truth about “tech neck,” anti-aging, and telomeres
✅ And how chiropractic care may help avoid unnecessary surgeries

This episode will change the way you think about your spine—and your health.

Understanding Naturopathic Medicine 🌿
Did you ever hear about the principals of naturopathic medicine and the oath we live by? Here it is:

• First Do No Harm – Using natural, least invasive therapies.
• Healing Power of Nature – Harnessing the body’s wisdom with nature’s help.
• Treat the Cause – Addressing roots, not just symptoms.
• Doctor as Teacher – Empowering patients with health literacy.
• Whole Person – Balancing body, lifestyle, and environment.
• Prevention – Stopping illness before it starts.

Our goal? Heal patients so they no longer need ongoing treatments—natural or synthetic. True healing starts with nutrition, sleep, movement, hydration, and spirit. Tools like supplements and medications can be temporary and helpful, supporting the journey to lasting health.

Example: someone with blood sugar problems shifts to a ketogenic diet, phasing out meds (with their prescriber) as their body heals. It’s not about piling on treatments—it’s about removing what’s unnecessary as health returns. Like fixing a cracked radiator, not just refilling it.

Exciting News! Dr. O’Connell just got a whole box of The Hormone Repair Manual and The Period Repair Manual by Dr. Lara Briden, ND, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! These books are absolute game-changers for understanding female hormones, periods, and how to work with your body—not against it. Now, we have them available in the clinic, making it even easier for patients to dive deeper into their own health journeys. Huge thanks to Dr. Lara Briden for being so kind, amazing, and brilliant in making this information accessible to everyone!

🥬🥑Whipping up Dr. O’s go-to salad dressing and tossing it with fresh greens—simple, delicious, and perfect for two! 🥗✨ Here’s how it goes:

1. Grab a big metal bowl, set it on a gram scale, and tare it.
2. Add 45g olive oil (tare), 45g red wine vinegar (tare), 10g Dijon mustard.
3. Toss in 5 drops liquid stevia, 1 tsp Italian seasoning (I love Spice Islands organic garlic & herb!), and 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper. Whisk until it’s silky smooth.
4. Add 100g salad mix—toss with tongs or gloved hands ‘til every leaf is coated (no dressing puddles allowed!).
5. Top it off: 2oz crumbled feta, a diced Haas avocado, a handful of shredded carrots, 1/4-1/2 small onion (thinly sliced), and 1/4 cup roasted salted sunflower seeds.

Split into 2 bowls (or keep it family-style). Fresh, flavorful, and ready to dig in! 🥑🥕 Who’s making this tonight?
