Sun’s out, trowel’s out! So is Barry, Dr. Colton’s 8.5 year old guinea pig on this beautiful sunny day! 

After bending forward weeding the garden beds, Dr Colton is going to need an adjustment! 😆

Adjustments also assist your body’s adaptability to stress! 👏🏼

Mind is a powerful driver of both health and illness. Chronic stress, worry, and overthinking can trigger physiological changes that strain the heart, immune system, and nervous system, accelerating health problems over time.

Focusing on things outside your control only amplifies unnecessary stress. The body interprets persistent worry as a threat, releasing stress hormones like cortisol that, when elevated over long periods, can lead to fatigue, inflammation, and even chronic disease.

Learning to let go of what you cannot change helps the nervous system return to a state of balance. Mindfulness, deep breathing, and perspective shifts can reduce the body’s stress response and protect both mental and physical well-being.

Prioritizing energy on actions you can influence empowers the mind and body. By reducing unnecessary worry, you strengthen resilience, support long-term health, and create space for calm, clear thinking and more intentional action in areas that truly matter.

Dr. Colton loves working on the sphenoid in her cranial work! It’s so powerful, especially for babies!

The sphenoid bone plays a pivotal role in craniofacial growth and neurological development, influencing nine of the twelve cranial nerves. Distortions in this bone can present as facial asymmetry, challenges with eye tracking, or visual disturbances—early signs that should not be overlooked.

For chiropractors, evaluating and addressing sphenoid imbalances is essential to restoring proper cranial motion, optimizing neurological function, and supporting healthy development.

Patient: “Doc, I don’t know why my neck hurts and always feels stiff.”

Me: “I’m sure it has NOTHING to do with your posture or repetitive movements.” 😅🤣

Mobility in motherhood:

I was looking through old pictures and found a few gems of a gentle yoga class and the gym at 38 weeks pregnant.

It was a game-changer doing weekly yoga, weightlifting, and chiropractic adjustments to ensure that I had the strength and mobility to get through labor and now to chase my log-rolling, energetic little lady on the floor!

If you have any questions or want holistic guidance for your pregnancy journey, I would love to help you! 💪🏽💓
