Have you ever noticed that when you are going through something REALLY rough or stressful, your body may not be happy about it, but it holds together until the stress is over.... and then something happens: you hurt yourself, you get sick, you "crash".

A lot of my high-performer patients treat rest like something they have to earn ... and they cannot have it until "X" happens:
the big event is over,
or you catch up on this project,
or you get the annual employee bonuses all sent out.

But here's the truth: Recovery isn’t what you do after damage. It's what prevents it.

If you're grinding through fatigue, pain, or brain fog, thinking "it'll pass" or you "just have to get through", KNOW that you're not lazy for needing a break. You're smart for listening.

That’s why Phase 1: RELIEVE in the Alpha 5-Phase Body Fix Method starts with helping your body reset. Because rest, posture, alignment, and taking care of your nervous aren't luxuries. They're your foundation.

⏸️ Take 2 minutes right now:
Sit tall. Breathe deeply. Unclench your jaw.
Feel the shift?

If you want a simple structure-first guide for feeling like YOU again?
DM me “RESET” and I’ll send you The Pain-Free Professional. You NEED it. Just for you. Now.

Not just for “gym bros” anymore!

Creatine is finally getting the recognition it deserves — for brain health, energy, and muscle recovery... AND FOR WOMENS USE ;)

And you don't need to be an athlete to benefit, it’s for anyone who wants to stay strong, think clearly, and move better.

I’ve taken creatine intermittently for years, usually because my hubby/Newbody Training keeps telling me is is so beneficial. Results? Meh. 3-5 # weight gain and I gave up.

I WAS MAKING A MISTAKE!

The benefit is in taking it DAILY & ONLY AFTER you have "loaded" your system with the appropriate loading dose for your activity and size.

Creatine supports:
✔️ Lean muscle mass
✔️ Recovery after workouts
✔️ Mental clarity under stress

Yep, I feel every one of those.

It’s also one of the most researched, safest supplements on the market.

In Phase 1( RELIEVE) we support your tissue from the outside with chiropractic adjustments
AND we also support the inside through recovery-focused supplementation. Creatine is a Winner worth trying.

Hustling through pain isn’t strength — it’s sabotage.

Would you drive on this flat tire for 3 weeks just “pushing through?”
No. You’d stop.
You’d fix it.
You’d get back on the road safely.

So why do so many of us ignore pain, stiffness, fatigue, and numbness — and keep hustling like it’s normal?

🚫 That’s not strength. ⚠️ That’s sabotage. SELF SABOTAGE.

Pain is information. And when your body’s trying to speak to you, powering through just teaches it to yell louder. Do you want it to yell louder?

In Phase 1: RELIEVE of our Alpha 5-Phase Body Fix Method, we remove the pressure patterns that keep high performers like you in chronic survival mode.

Want to stop chasing symptoms and finally fix the structure? Of course you do. Download my free guide that I wrote for people just like you. You will learn a couple tricks to help your body work and feel better and it will only take you a couple of minutes a day.

DM me “PAIN” and I’ll send it to you.

Collagen is having a moment again — you’ll see it in everything from TikTok skincare routines to gym recovery protocols and on every influencer's feed.

But I don’t take it for skin or hair, that is just a Bonus :)

I take it for structure: Tendons. Ligaments. Fascia. Discs.

All of these structures REQUIRE collagen to repair micro-tears for you to remain pain-free and healthy.

As someone who lifts, works on patients, and can't sit still — I feel the difference when my collagen intake drops off. So I don’t miss it.

✅ I recommend it to every patient who is in Phase 1 (Relieve) of our Alpha Body Fix Method.

✅If you are having a nagging challenge lately, especially one from activities/workouts or hindered sleep, this is a good option for you.

✅Besides hair, skin and joint pain, other reasons to take collagen are to prevent bone loss, boost muscle mass, promote heart health, improve gut health, maintain brain health, may help support weight loss.

📩You can order the exact product I use (see picture) in the Active Family Chiro AZ Fullscript supplement store or shoot me the message COLLAGEN and I’ll send you the FULLSCRIPT Storefront link to your personal patient profile.
