This is a very random compilation of photos from the last few months. Life lately has been interesting… I am in a season of immense learning & simultaneous unlearning, both leading to growth.

I have attended 6 chiropractic seminars so far this year, with about a dozen other chiropractic training sessions & meet ups sprinkled in. On top of that, I am in a mentorship group focused on pediatric & prenatal care that meets every other week. It has felt good to commit so much of my time & energy to deepening my understanding of this work. I am constantly reminded of how truly incredible chiropractic is & how big its purpose can be.

I have been receiving support in my own healing journey from two amazing mentors who I have been working with for years now, helping me to see myself more clearly and create my life more intentionally. I have also been seeing a therapist consistently for the first time in my life which has been another access point for self awareness & evolution.

Additionally, I have been spending a lot of time with the friends & family in my life who I can fully be myself around. Since losing my mom in November I have found that I only have the capacity to nurture relationships that feel super supportive. Playing tennis with my dad, family dinners, intentional time with my husband, weekend getaways, going to concerts and getting together with our core group of friends have been a huge source of joy & connection.

There are times my mind is in hyperdrive, spinning and trying to “figure everything out”. Why things are the way they are, what it all means, what I need to DO…

My greatest lessons recently have been to surrender the need to feel in control (because I definitely am not), to focused on my response to life rather than the circumstances, and to let go of the pressure to always be doing more.

Processing & integration are necessary for healing, and that takes time, space, patience and care. It requires taking time for myself, and receiving outside support.

It has been a while since I have posted on here so I wanted to share what has been stirring for me. I hope this resonates or inspires you in some way 💛🦒

Hi there! I am Dr Maddie, a family chiropractor in La Jolla Village and owner of Awaken Family Chiropractic. I work with people of all ages & stages. I specialize in infant, pediatric and prenatal care but I am well equipped to serve anyone with a spine!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love helping people feel more at home in their bodies and more connected to their own innate healing power. I truly believe that the body is a powerful self-healing, self-regulating organism and that we are designed to be healthy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My job as a chiropractor is not to fix you, but to empower you to heal from the inside out. I do this by adjusting the spine in order to remove interference to the nervous system.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love what I do. I love working with people to improve their health. I love working with newborns and kiddos, knowing that this work will have a ripple effect throughout the rest of their lives. I love working with expecting moms as they journey through their pregnancy. I love working with other entrepreneurs, other healers & other practitioners. I love working with people trying to optimize their health, people curious about holistic healing modalities, and people who just want to live with less pain & limitations.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And I love talking about chiropractic! Please reach out if you have questions, want to connect or just want to say hi 💛🦒

Although kids are quite resilient, subtle trauma throughout childhood can affect the development of the nervous system. This is a BIG deal considering that the nervous system is the master control system of the entire body!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Chiropractic care makes sure that the spine stays healthy, which enables the nervous system to function at its best. This improves the overall health of your little one, empowers them to adapt better to stress and decreases the likelihood of illness and injury. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Starting chiropractic care young creates a solid foundation of health and leads to greater vitality for the rest of life!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Signs that your child could benefit from chiropractic care are​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Getting sick frequently ​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Not hitting developmental milestones ​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Trouble sleeping​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Digestive issues​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Chronic sinus congestion​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Lack of focus in school​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Poor balance or coordination ​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 Bedwetting​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 An accident or injury​​​​​​​​
👉🏼 and so much more!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If you are wondering if chiropractic can help your kiddo please feel free to reach out or book an appointment online through awakenchiro.com 🤗

Happy February! My blog post this month is about simplifying self care. I go over 3 concepts that have helped me get the most out of my self care time, even when I’m extra busy!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Sometimes I feel stressed about not having enough time to do all of the things that I know are so good for me. As a person who highly values health, it can feel like a big undertaking to stay on top of my routines & rituals! But of course, stressing about them is counter-productive 😅​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If you can relate, then I invite you to check out my latest blog post at awakenchiro.com, or sign up for my monthly newsletter! In addition to the blog post, the newsletter also contains a health tip, info about upcoming La Jolla events and a helpful resource I want to share, whether that be a practitioner, a program or this month, a book!​​​​​​​​

I often ask new practice members this question... "how does having this pain/symptom effect your life?".​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
The pain or symptom is not the real reason people come to see me. The REAL reason is the limitation they are feeling. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
An unwanted symptom can make you feel frustrated, disempowered, angry or depressed. It can make you irritable, impatient and less empathetic towards others.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
It can distract you from work, steal your attention away from your loved ones and cause you to feel unmotivated or unfocused. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
It will likely prevent you from being able to do things that you love to do, whether that be working out, playing a sport, attending an event, traveling, or even bending down to pick up your kids.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Pain and symptoms interfere with your ability to show up as your best self, at work, at home and for yourself. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
My goal is to support you as you move from a state of stuck to healing. My job is to free your innate healing potential and provide a safe space for you to come back to you yourself.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If you are struggling with a limitation and would like a safe space for healing, please don't hesitate to reach out

Not long ago, I had a practice member tell me that she was able to balance better in yoga after her first few adjustments. She asked if that could be related to the chiropractic care... I said, “absolutely!”.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Chiropractic care effects the musculoskeletal system as well as the nervous system. When these two systems are balanced and functioning freely, your body is capable of amazing things!

The other day, a new practice member told me that after her first adjustment she noticed feeling "...really light, like I had been carrying a heavy backpack and didn't realize it until the weight was gone".

Wow! Can you imagine carrying around a heavy backpack all the time without even realizing it was there?! 🎒😩

Often times the tension in our bodies accumulates slowly over time so we don't notice it is happening in the moment. It's not until you experience relief that you understand the extent of what you were carrying.

If you're ready to put down the heavy backpack, it's time for chiropractic.

Are you welcoming a new little one into your family in 2025?? Chiropractic care is a safe & effective modality to support mom's as they heal from birth as well as newborns as they adapt to life.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Whether the birth is "smooth" or challenging, it is a major event for both mom and baby. Chiropractic adjustments help unwind tension, rebalance the system and optimize the nervous system, regardless of age. That is why I offer the first adjustment free for a newborn when the mom has been under care - because it is never too early to have a well regulated nervous system 🤗​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If you are curious about chiropractic for you or your little one but are unsure if it’s right for you please don’t hesitate to reach out. Talking to people about chiropractic is one of my favorite things to do!
