With the new year we are back to our regularly scheduled hours of 8:30am-5:30pm!

While slow holiday schedules can offer a wonderful break, our bodies thrive in routine! We hope to see you in 2026!

As always, you are welcome to call during office hours to book an appointment—if you get our voicemail it means we are helping another patient and we will get back to you as soon as possible! For fastest booking 24/7, use the online scheduling tool: https://www.valleyfamilywellness.com/scheduling

The week between Christmas and New Year’s: It can feel a little slower…it can feel like maybe you need a reason to get out of the house…and it can ALSO be a great week to catch up on things that might be a little more difficult when school is back in session! We personally use this week each year to make sure the whole family is caught up on adjustments so we can move into the New Year feeling our best! We have family blocks available this week for your convenience! One fee to take care of everyone’s needs (all family members must be established patients—if you need to get anyone in as a new patient, we have room for a couple of those as well!).

Good morning, dear friends!

Do you find yourselves (or your children!) with an unexpected snow day today? Might we suggest that today would be a *perfect* time to get in for those adjustments you’ve been putting off due to school and sports schedules!

We have a couple morning and afternoon apppontments still available today if you want to make one of them yours! The roads, parking lot, and sidewalks are clear. Stay safe out there!

Fasting isn’t just about skipping meals — it’s about giving your body time to heal!

When you take a break from constant eating, your body shifts its energy from digestion to repair, detox, hormone balance, and inflammation control.

From better metabolism and gut health to clearer thinking, fat burning, and powerful cellular cleanup (autophagy), fasting helps reset your body from the inside out. Even a simple 12–16 hour fast can improve insulin sensitivity, stabilize blood sugar, and support long-term wellness.

New to fasting? Start simple:
✔ Stay hydrated
✔ Support electrolytes
✔ Ease in with overnight fasting
✔ Break your fast with whole, nourishing foods
✔ Always check with your provider if you’re pregnant, diabetic, or managing chronic conditions

When paired with consistent chiropractic care, quality nutrition, and movement, fasting supports your body’s natural ability to heal and thrive.

✨ Small, consistent habits create the biggest long-term results.

A huge thank you to our friends at Dominion Energy who brought enough toys by to fill our box to the brim today!! (And Natalie happened to be there to help!) The box is headed to UVA tomorrow for the kids to enjoy some fun and distraction in the coming year. Thank you all so much for your generosity in helping make this another successful year in supporting the kids!!!

This is the FINAL WEEK of the Toy Drive for UVA Children’s Hospital!!! Please be sure to bring in your toys by Friday, December 5!

Don’t have time to shop? We’ve had a couple patients leave cash and the Dodge kids have gone shopping to fill the box! We are happy to do that if you’d like to bring a financial donation by Wednesday!!

Thank YOU for all you do to make this community an incredible place to live!

Part of our web server was down this morning, but it is back up and running! We apologize if you tried to log on to book your appointments this week and were met with an error!

Go ahead and give it another shot! Thanks for bearing with us as we were dealing with the technical difficulties too!

We are so thrilled to 1) be back in the office with clear scans and 2) be participating in the Operation BradyStrong Toy Drive for the third year this year!

We know first-hand how much a toy or book can change the course of a major appointment or procedure, and this toy drive benefits UVA Children’s Hospital, where our own daughter has picked out toys many many times!

We welcome donations of all new toys through December 5! With all of the Black Friday deals rolling out from local retailers, now is a great time to shop!

Need some ideas? Hospital toys are best when they can be cleaned (avoid stuffed animals!) and are even better when they keep kids busy! Some family favorites include: coloring books, word searches, Legos, Barbies, Little People, Playdough, ColorWonder Markers/paper, Water Wow, sticker by number books…for teens art/STEAM kits, phone chargers, fun pens, journals. Fidget toys are great for all age groups!

Please consider bringing an item to your next appointment or just dropping by if you are in the neighborhood—we would love to see you!
