✨ Nervous system healing doesn’t just happen on the table — it happens in the small, everyday moments.

It’s in the deep breath you take when you feel overwhelmed.
The slow walk you take instead of scrolling.
The stretch you do between patients or meetings.
The glass of water you sip when you realize you’ve been running on empty.

These small choices are how your nervous system learns safety again — moment by moment, breath by breath.

Chiropractic helps create the space for your body to access this healing — but it’s your daily rhythms that help it stay. 🫶🏼

Here’s your reminder that healing isn’t always loud or dramatic.
Sometimes it’s as simple as choosing presence in the tiniest moments. 🌿

What I wish every expecting mama knew 💕

✨ You don’t have to suffer through 9 months of discomfort.
✨ Your nervous system matters just as much as your nutrition and exercise.
✨ A balanced pelvis = more comfort for you and more space for baby.
✨ Support is out there—you don’t have to do this alone.

Pregnancy is such a sacred season, and it deserves to feel supported, balanced, and empowered.
This is why I love caring for moms in this chapter of life. 💛

Okay but seriously… I absolutely LOVE when a new patient comes in looking for nervous system support — that’s when the ✨real magic✨ happens!

Your nervous system runs the show: sleep 😴, digestion 🍽️, immunity 💪, even how you handle stress 😮‍💨. When it’s stuck in overdrive, regulation gets tough. Chiropractic care isn’t just about pain — it’s about helping your body reset, find balance, and shift out of survival mode into healing. 💜

Check out Stephanie’s story! I love when we get to see improvements with people’s nervous systems like we saw with Stephanie. I often hear that people only go to the chiropractor when they have neck and back pain, but if you see a nervous system focused chiropractor you can see improvements in all other systems as well.

If you’ve been under care, what’s a change you’ve noticed that you didn’t think chiropractic care could help with??

For me it was anxiety. I found myself getting more and more anxious to the point I was having anxiety attacks and I had no idea what was going on. After getting under care with a nervous system chiropractor, my anxiety began to improve and I haven’t had an anxiety attack in probably 5 years or more!

Many parents are surprised to learn how much the birth process can impact their baby’s feeding journey.

From the way cranial bones shift during delivery, to how sucking helps them realign—feeding is both functional and therapeutic for a newborn.

But when birth is tough, feeding might be too. That’s where gentle chiropractic care can make a big difference. By supporting proper alignment of the cranial bones and releasing tension, we can help babies feed more comfortably and thrive.

Have you noticed feeding challenges with your little one? Let’s chat—I’m here to help.

🤰P***c Symphysis Dysfunction (PSD) – What It Is & How to Find Relief!

If you’re pregnant and experiencing sharp, shooting, or aching pain in your pelvis—especially when walking, standing on one leg, or rolling over in bed—you may be dealing with P***c Symphysis Dysfunction (PSD).

The p***c symphysis is the joint where the left and right pelvic bones meet at the front of your body. During pregnancy, hormonal changes (hello, relaxin!) cause the ligaments supporting this joint to loosen, sometimes leading to misalignment, instability, and pain.

✨ Tips to Help & Prevent PSD:
✔ Keep your legs together when getting out of bed or the car (think “mermaid movements”).
✔ Engage your core & pelvic floor before movements like standing up.
✔ Use a support belt to stabilize the pelvis.
✔ Avoid single-leg movements like lunges or stairs if they aggravate pain.
✔ Ice & gentle stretching to reduce inflammation and tension.

💆‍♀️ How Chiropractic Helps:
As a prenatal chiropractor, I am trained to work specifically with a pregnant pelvis allowing me to gently adjust, restore balance and relieve pressure on the p***c symphysis. The Webster Technique is what allows me to help optimize pelvic alignment, making movement (and birth!) more comfortable.

You don’t have to suffer through pregnancy pain—chiropractic care can help! Have you experienced PSD before? Let’s chat in the comments! ⬇️💬

Pregnancy & Heartburn: A Natural Solution!

Heartburn and indigestion are incredibly common during pregnancy, but that doesn’t mean you have to suffer through them. As your baby grows, increased intra-abdominal pressure and postural changes can push the stomach upward, irritating the diaphragm and esophagus—hello, acid reflux!

Chiropractic care can help by addressing spinal and rib cage alignment and releasing tension in the diaphragm. A diaphragm release helps restore normal movement of this crucial muscle, allowing your stomach to sit in a more natural position and reducing reflux symptoms.

Many pregnant mamas notice immediate relief after gentle adjustments and soft tissue work focused on the diaphragm, ribcage, and mid-back. If you’re experiencing heartburn or indigestion, let’s help your body move and function optimally so you can enjoy pregnancy with more ease!

the Webster technique is designed for analyzing and adjusting a pregnant pelvis with the goal of restoring proper alignment, which will take tension off the uterosacral ligaments allowing baby to move around more easily. This helps not only make mama more comfortable throughout her pregnancy, but can also help set her up for a more smooth and straight forward birth by allowing baby to get into the proper position for birth.

My whole goal in the office is to create luxury pelvises for babies to grown and develop in and also help with those common (but NOT normal) aches and pains during pregnancy.

Pregnancy related postural changes can have a huge impact on how we’re feeling.

Those common aches and pains associated with pregnancy are often due to the shifts in posture and strain on different ligaments and muscles as well as the shifts in the pelvic bones themselves.

Regular chiropractic care throughout pregnancy can help to decrease those common pregnancy related symptoms to help create a more comfortable pregnancy and more easy and straightforward labor and delivery.

As you can see here, just after one adjustment there is a huge shift in this woman’s posture which is going to help with the low back pain that is extremely common with pregnancy.

A review by a momma under care with Webster Technique:

“I began seeing Dr. JoAnne at 36 weeks pregnant with baby #2. I had always been averse to seeing a chiropractor because I dreaded the stereotypical joint-popping experience. How wrong I was! Dr. JoAnne makes a great case for the role of chiropractic care in the labor-prep process (and no joint popping necessary!).

The quality of care is fantastic — Dr. JoAnne is so professional and skilled at what she does, great at putting you at ease, and very communicative about her process. The space is beautifully designed, with many thoughtful and intentional touches (e.g. a play area of little ones, a nursing space, ect.). I continued to see Dr. JoAnne all the way up to my due date. Very glad I did. Highly recommended!”

The short answer is no, I am not in-network with any insurance providers. There are many reasons for this:

1. I do not want insurance companies dictating your care - often insurance companies allow a certain amount of visits per year and that number is often quite low. It would be like saying you’re only allowed to go to the gym once a month and are expected to stay strong and healthy. It doesn’t work that way.

At the end of the day, insurance companies are designed for quick, symptom relief and not long term wellness. As your chiropractor, I AM invested in your long term wellness. Not only do I want you to be pain free, but I also want you functioning at your highest capacity for as long as possible.

2. I cannot provide personalized quality care - in order for me to keep my doors open and also take insurance I have to see 10x the amount of patients. With this model, appointment times would have to be cut to 2-3 minutes per patient and I wouldn’t be able to provide you the quality, personalized care you deserve.

3. I can provide more affordable care by not being an in-network provider. It sounds counterintuitive, but hear me out. By taking insurance my prices would have to be a lot higher than they are because there would be a significant increase in my overhead costs by hiring and paying for a biller. Often times providers will use up all your benefits at that higher rate and then charge you out of pocket for the remainder of your care plan.
By not taking insurance I can keep my office costs lower and therefore save you money on your care plan.

4. I accept HSA and FSA and I can also provide you the appropriate documentation to submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement if you have out of network coverage.
