If this list feels familiar, it doesn’t mean anything terribly wrong is happening.
It usually means we need to look a little deeper and understand the full pattern.

While this may relate to cortisol, there may be other contributors as well—like thyroid function, hormone shifts, nutrient depletion, gut health, or chronic inflammation.

If you want help understanding what your body might be trying to tell you…
👉 comment CORTISOL.
This is the kind of work I do.

If your low back is talking back after shoveling snow, listen to it. 🥶🧊

Snow shoveling puts your spine through repeated bending, twisting, and lifting—often in cold, tight muscles. That combo is a recipe for strained joints, irritated discs, and muscle spasms.

Here’s the part most people get wrong:
Waiting it out isn’t always the best plan.

When your body is already inflamed, delaying care can allow small issues to turn into bigger ones—more stiffness, more pain, and a longer recovery. Gentle chiropractic care can help restore motion, calm inflammation, and support healing before things spiral.

If your back pain started after shoveling, slipping, or overdoing it in the snow, don’t tough it out. Get checked, get support, and get back to moving comfortably—without guessing.

Your spine will thank you.

If you’ve been dealing with fatigue and feel like you’ve tried everything, it’s usually because no one has stepped back to look at the full picture.

When I work with clients, I start by looking at thyroid function beyond TSH…
Then I layer in cortisol patterns, gut health, and nutrient absorption…
And finally, I assess hormone shifts—especially during perimenopause and menopause—and how all of this is interacting over time.

That’s how we stop guessing and start addressing what’s actually going on.
Because exhaustion isn’t a personality trait—and it’s not “just aging.”

If you’re ready to get to the root cause of your fatigue, schedule a functional medicine consultation. ✨

52 trips around the sun 🎉
And yep—I’ve lived with Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism, perimenopause, chronic pain, and migraines.

I know what it feels like to wake up exhausted, foggy, inflamed, and wondering why your labs say “normal” but your body says absolutely not.

That lived experience is exactly why I do functional medicine the way I do.
No gaslighting.
No symptom-chasing.
No “this is just aging.”

For my 52nd birthday, I’m celebrating by giving $52 OFF new patient consultations 🎁
Today and all weekend only.

If you’ve been putting your health on the back burner… this is your sign.
You deserve answers. You deserve energy. And you deserve to feel like yourself again. 💜

🎂 Birthday special ends this weekend.
📅 New patients only.

If you’re new here—welcome 👋

Around here, we don’t chase symptoms.
We listen to them.

I work with women who are exhausted, foggy, inflamed, and frustrated by being told their labs are “normal.” Instead of guessing or handing out one-size-fits-all plans, we start with testing, context, and root causes.

Functional medicine is about connecting the dots—gut, thyroid, hormones, inflammation, and stress—so your body can actually respond.

This is for women who want real answers, steady energy, and a plan that feels supportive (not overwhelming).

If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

Your spine doesn’t need perfection—it needs support 🦴✨

The way you sit, scroll, sleep, and move every day either helps your spine thrive… or slowly wears it down 😬

The good news?

Small changes make a BIG difference 🙌

If stiffness, aches, or reduced mobility are sneaking into your life, your body is asking for support—not willpower 💙

That’s where chiropractic care comes in.

Your spine carries you through everything.

Let’s treat it like it matters. 💪😊
