Here's something most people don't know: your body NEEDS stress to thrive.
But not the kind you're thinking of.
Your nervous system responds to three types of stress:
🧘♀️Physical (movement, exercise, falls)
🍉Chemical (nutrition, what you put on your body)
💕Emotional (relationships, joy, overwhelm, self-care)
When these stressors are NEGATIVE (sitting all day, junk food, chronic stress), your body struggles and subluxations happen—interference that keeps you from feeling your best.
But when you intentionally add POSITIVE stressors like the ones below? Your body grows stronger, more resilient, and healthier.
💪 Movement that challenges you in a good way
🥗 Real, nourishing food
💗 Moments of joy and treating yourself to things that make you feel beautiful
Chiropractic care helps your body adapt to ALL of it by removing interference in your nervous system.
This week: 👉🏻 Add one positive stressor. Your body will thank you.
Ready to make The Shift?
I still have a few new patient appointments available this month! I'm running my November gratitude special:

Sometimes the best gift is pointing someone toward the care they've been needing. 💕
P.S. I'll be at Pure Barre Ankeny this Saturday morning (during classes) sharing more about this connection! If you're taking a class, come say hi. I'm also teaming up with Illie & Co for a fun giveaway. Two of my favorite local businesses! 💕
