You know you’re tired and this is unscripted when you look at the captions and realize you sad veggies instead of fruit, field trip instead of road trip and probably more but I stopped watching myself. Let me know if you like any of these brands or if this was helpful!

I get my processed boxed food from Whole Foods since the whole foods are delivered: my weely farm share from and my monthly meat share from

Walden Local Meat is regenerative farms and I do have a referral code if you want to try it!

"I wish I had your hours"
"Man, must be nice to own your own business"
"I can't believe you need a vacation"

We 99% of the time hear the love from our patients- the ones that see the physical and emotional effort we put into our job, the weekends, late nights and early morning shifts to accommodate peoples' work schedules 💓

But we're human, too, and our lizard brain still can hear the demeaning comments louder than the symphony of nice ones. Especially our maternity leaves being called "vacations" 🤦‍♀️

What you don't see: we make our own soap using so there are no harmful chemicals for you or your family (nor us). We clean up scraps of paper from floors, make sure the toilet paper is stocked, load the diapers, tampons, and wipes for everyone to use. Take gowns home to be laundered and then bring them back to be folded and stocked. Have team meetings so the whole office is on the same page with patient cases and special situations...

We will be taking a long weekend to enjoy family time, have childcare during spring break with our kiddos, refresh our minds and bodies, and get our own appointments taken care of!

And most importantly, let Dr. Alex enjoy her wedding weekend! 👰‍♀️

We are closed April 2,3, and 6. When you come back, the soap, towels, and diapers will be ready to go and our skills we be as honed as ever! Thank you for understanding 🤗

We're consumers JUST LIKE YOU. It's confusing to know what "wellness" even means anymore. It's hard choosing between different acupuncture or chiropractic offices on google or facebook mom group searches. Everyone has a magic bullet but your time and money are valuable and limited!

Well, let's start with what we are NOT:
We are NOT a franchise. We have been an established office of all-women Doctors for 15 years in the Cranford and Clark area.

We are NOT here to be a band-aid. If you want something quick for pain-- pop something from your cabinet (this is not medical advice...on multiple levels). We do expect you to come repeatedly, over the course of many months. You wouldn't expect to run a marathon after doing one jog- why would changing your nervous system's tone which has built up over decades of daily micro-traumas take less time than your marathon? How can we be expected to help you if you don't give us a true period of time for change?

We are not DANGEROUS or ALTERNATIVE. We are three board-certified Doctors. We are real. We have hanging diplomas and state licenses and all the rest. We know what we're doing. And we also live the lifestyle ourselves.

So if you want a professional yet fun medical but also woo-woo office that will literally change your life, marriage, family, and future then give us a call

Oh hey, didn't see you there. Just a reminder you get to choose every day whether you go to bed healthier or sicker than how you woke up that morning. What are you choosing? What would the future you wish you had chosen?

It's never to late for now

Real talk:

Your nervous system runs the show.

Your spine protects it.

Chiropractic regulates it.

Doctors of Chiropractic are the only doctors trained to assess and care for nervous system function through the spine — because your body's ability to heal starts with clear communication.
Reclaim your regulation. 🖤

For years, Dr. Shelley and Dr. Ila exclusively practiced the Gonstead Method of Chiropractic. A technique we still consider to be the gold-standard of chiropractic adjustments.

But after the pandemic we noticed a shift in the population coming to see us. People were more high-strung. They couldn't get into adjusting positions because they were so stiff and locked up. They were suspicious of all doctors. They wanted help but didn't trust us to perform up to our board-certified standard of excellence.

So we pivoted. We began training under titans in an entirely new style for us: tonal chiropractic. Light-force techniques that we previously couldn't understand, comprehend, or honestly really give the time of day to.

We were nervous to bring this new version of chiropractic back to an office that was used to hearing sounds and feeling the power.

But then something amazing happened- people absolutely loved it.

We tested it out slowly on some of the women that had requested softer styles and they were all in. We expanded it to babies and children and they were beaming with happiness getting off the table, greeting their parents with wide smiles.

Now we have options to offer to you- our patients, our practice members. Sometimes the stored energy of a subluxation is in bone, sometimes it's in muscle or ligament. We meet the force needed to release that stored energy and your body is freed to heal and function again.

It's been an unexpected journey, one we are still on, but one we are excited to expand within and to offer to more of the community.

Acupuncture is enjoyable for all ages! Here is my 4 year old sleeping through the needle portion of her 30 minute session with Dr. Alex. When needles aren’t an option, many other tools are used by the doctor to still stimulate the points to encourage Qi, or lifeforce, to move more easily through the body. This child has been adjusted from 1 hour old and still gets adjusted. Acupuncture is another tool to allow her body to heal itself!

The Complete Story on How I Chose to Become a Chiropractor ❣️

It's vulnerable to share. But in my practice you get all of me.

If you've had some tough situations in your health journey, our office is a safe space to land.

My 3PM rule:
Don’t push through. Reset.

5 quiet minutes.
Protein.
Supplements.
My afternoon MUD\WTR.
Then back to mom life with DJ 💛

When women tell me they’re exhausted but can’t sleep, anxious but drained — we don’t just blame hormones.

We look at the nervous system.

If your afternoons feel wired and tired, we should talk.

Perimenopause Morning Routine to Support Hormones (and for everyone else too)

1. Hydration 💧We wake up dehydrated and lacking minerals that her body has used while we sleep. To hydrate take room temperature water or warm water add a half of a lemon squeezed, a dash of sea salt, and half of a tablespoon to one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar

2. Movement 🧘🏽‍♀️Gentle movement signals to your body that you are awake and ready for the day. It also allows a moment to start your day slowly before you begin running. I also take a pause at the end of my practice to take a few deep breaths to check in with myself

3. Break your fast properly 🍳 One of the most important things you can do for your blood sugar in the morning is to make sure that the first thing that you eat is a savory, protein rich breakfast to avoid sugar spikes and crashes throughout the day. Not to mention that protein is your satiation macro

4. Gut health supplements💊 I'm currently resetting my gut by eliminating inflammatory things in my diet and supporting restoration with Mega Mucosa, which is to help heal the lining of the gut, pre and probiotics to restore some healthy microbes

5. THEN Coffee ☕

What you didn't see here is me also momming my morning away in between the end of my practice and the beginning of my supplement ritual. I cleaned up the dishes, made two lunches, and I got two kids ready to go.

This ritual allows me to have time to myself before everyone else needs me
