We received this wonderful review recently! This means SO much to us, as we are a referral based practice!

"I found the amazing staff at Jade River Healing/Active Chiropractic from another satisfied patient who highly recommended their acupuncturist, Shade. I was seeking treatment for Acupuncture after hearing that it could help me regain my sense of smell and taste. Both were lost for over 9 months after contracting Covid. As a newbie to acupuncture, I had NO idea what to expect. After a series of treatments, I had both taste and smell back, and it's still amazing.

In addition, and the bigger gift received from working with Shade is that he took the time to listen and work with me to enhance and bring into balance my overall health. His knowledge and compassion are a gift to anyone who takes the time to work with him."

The Dao De Jing (道德經), the Classic of the Way and its Virtue, is one of the earliest fundamental texts of Daoism, and ancient sect of Chinese naturalist philosophers. Written in the 6th century B.C. by a somewhat mysterious figure known as Laozi (老子), the Old Master, and consisting of 81 sections, it has served as an inspiration to untold numbers of people across time, and is one of the most translated works in world literature.
This is a translation of the thirteenth section, enjoy!

Look for what is unperceived.
And dub it darkness.
Listen for what is unheard.
And name it silence.
Strive for what is ungained.
And call this mysterious.
Three.
That elude being questioned.
To mix.
And merge into one.
Above her there is nothing brighter.
Below her nothing is dark.
Spun time such that surpasses naming.
To attain fulfillment.
And willfully return.
to nothing.
To approach this.
Embody.
the strength of the powerless.
Symbolize nothing.
Draw near to understanding.
Emptiness recedes Fullness gives way.
If encountered you won't see her face.
If followed you can't see her back.
Having reached her path.
One can attain all existence
And know the ancient maiden.
This is the discipline of the way

IMMUNE HEALTH // Deanna Minich, PhD

"We need to remember the basics of what makes us well, including the spectrum of colorful, to simple measures like making sure we get enough sleep, physical activity, and relaxation.

As a professional, I immediately think about a steady staple for – vitamin C. It’s easy to boost your intake by adding fruits and vegetables to your diet, especially if you fall short of the recommended 9 to 14 servings. It was reported that there was a 24 percent increase in vitamin C intake per one additional portion of fruit and vegetable added to the diet, which was statistically significant (reference: https://bit.ly/2EDaCDs).

For a targeted increase, try some of these foods if you are able to eat them (and are not intolerant/allergic). One thing this list has in common is that they are colorful foods!

If you struggle to consume enough vitamin-C rich foods, you might use dietary supplements. A few things to note:

☀️The body starts to absorb less vitamin C with doses above 1,250 mg. That is why for maximum absorption, it is generally recommended to split high doses to two or three throughout the day.
The most common side effect is diarrhea, and you might also experience abdominal pain.

☀️Vitamin C increases the absorption of non-heme iron, which is the iron found in plants such as lentils, soy, quinoa, and leafy greens. Therefore, if you are at risk of an iron overload, do not take vitamin C when you consume these foods. Conversely, if you are iron deficient, increase your non-heme iron absorption through consuming vitamin C-rich foods and/or supplements.

☀️As with any supplement, discuss potential medication interactions and other risk factors with your doctor or pharmacist before taking the supplement.

☀️Make sure to have bioflavonoids included in your vitamin C supplement for a complete complement of vitamin C activity."

Yeah, that’s a lot of people… And yeah, that’s a problem since vitamin D plays a vital role in bone, muscle, heart, lung, brain, and immune function (if you’re unsure whether you are deficient in vitamin D talk to your healthcare provider about testing your vitamin D levels).

But good news! There’s a couple different ways to support your body’s vitamin D status:

☀️ Sunshine: Just 10-15 minutes of sunshine (ultraviolet B) can generate nearly all the vitamin D the body needs, but just make sure to lather on some SPF after that*

🥛 Food: Vitamin D is found naturally in a lot of foods (mainly just some fatty fish, eggs, and mushrooms treated with UV light) or fortified foods like milk and orange juice

🌟 Supplementation: Opt for a high quality, and bioavailable form of vitamin D like vitamin D3

Food plays an important role in the development of a child’s brain. Children have very active and busy lives, now more than ever before. Their days are long and packed with schoolwork and after-school activities. The brain is constantly working to help fuel thoughts, movements, breathing, etc.; therefore, their bodies and brain need an adequate amount of fuel to stay energized and focused throughout the day. The brain consists of highly metabolically active tissue that requires a constant supply of calories and micronutrients to meet its energy needs. What kids eat or don’t eat can impact their overall development and cognitive function.
