Doc Talk: Let’s talk sciatica.
What it is, why it hurts so bad, and what you can actually do about it.

“You train hard, you have to rehab hard—it’s part of the game.” 💪
In this clip, I’m using the Graston technique to break up scar tissue and improve mobility in a young athlete’s shoulder.

When you’re constantly pushing your body—whether it’s on the field, the mat, or in the gym—recovery and rehab are just as important as the training itself.
We want every part of the shoulder working right, not just for performance, but for long-term joint health 💥

Let’s talk shoulders 🏈🤼‍♂️
In this video, I’m working on a high school athlete who plays both football and wrestles—two sports that put a lot of demand on the shoulder joint.

The shoulder is stabilized by a group of muscles called the rotator cuff—there are about 5 different muscles that help keep everything in place and allow you to retract the shoulder back.

For athletes like this, repetitive impact and overuse can cause the shoulder to shift forward, leading to instability and pain.
So first, we adjust the joint to help bring it back into alignment and restore proper movement 🔧💥

Chiropractic care isn’t just about relieving pain—it’s about protecting the body so it performs at its best.

Yes, even your chiropractors get adjusted! 🙌
In this video, Dr. Kerwin and I are adjusting each other—because everyone benefits from chiropractic care, even us.

We always tell our patients: your body functions better when it’s in alignment. And we mean it. That’s why we prioritize getting adjusted regularly too.

It’s not just about pain relief—it’s about staying energized, mobile, and aligned so we can keep showing up for all of you 💙

Mid-back adjustments are one of my favorites—so many patients don’t realize how much tension they’re holding until we release it. 💥

This area plays a big role in posture, breathing, and how your body moves overall. It’s always rewarding to see people walk out feeling lighter and more open. 🙌💙

Throwback to Thrive’s grand opening this past March 💐
I walked in to a beautiful surprise from my team, and in that moment, I was reminded: success is never a solo act.

To any future business owners or entrepreneurs—hear me when I say this: your team is everything.
The energy, the support, the belief they bring to the vision… that’s what makes it real.

You can have the biggest dream in the world, but if you don’t pour into your team, it won’t grow.
I’m beyond grateful for mine 💙

Fun Fact: Did you know that gentle chiropractic care can help babies with things like colic, constipation, trouble sleeping, and even latching issues? 👶✨
The nervous system controls everything—so when it’s working properly, your baby can too!
Pediatric adjustments are safe, gentle, and tailored just for tiny bodies 💛

Let’s start the week off right — with a good laugh and a great adjustment! 😄✨

Neck adjustments might look intense on social media, but in real life? They’re gentle, effective, and honestly… kind of fun. This patient’s post-adjustment giggle is something we see all the time — it’s your body’s way of saying, “Ahhh, that feels better.”

Chiropractic care isn’t scary — it’s empowering. And there’s no better way to reset for the week ahead than giving your nervous system the love it deserves. 💆‍♀️💥💪

It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle — chasing goals, building dreams, and showing up for everyone else. But don’t forget to take a moment to live, to laugh, and yes... to dance it out 💃😉

This weekend, I’m reminding myself (and you!) that joy is just as important as ambition. You can work hard and have fun. You can chase big dreams and celebrate the little moments along the way.

So here’s to moving your body, lifting your spirit, and enjoying the journey — one step (and spin!) at a time. Happy weekend, friends! 💫💪💃

About Dr. Christina Wellner

“My passion is to help people!”

As an athlete, trained doula, health nut, GMU associate professor, wife, and mom of two boys, I like to bring compassion and the utmost care to each and every one of my patients.

My purpose as a Doctor of Chiropractic is to help as many people as possible get well, stay healthy naturally and educate them about how chiropractic care can help them maintain optimal health. I strongly believe in patient education and empowering patients and their families to improve the quality of their lives through a multidisciplinary approach. I examine patients, review their history, analyze the results of digital x-ray findings, as well as diagnose and treat the patient's condition, advising them about methods of preventive health care.

I work with numerous healthcare professionals within the area including local OBGYN offices, general practitioners, orthopedic doctors, neurologist, and various other health care professionals to administer the best care possible to my patients’ needs.
