Think stress is just mental? Think again 🤯

Your body doesn't lie. While your mind might say "I'm handling this fine," your shoulders are screaming, your jaw is clenched, and your digestive system has basically gone on strike.

Stress literally rewires your nervous system - creating physical tension patterns that stick around long after the stressful situation has passed.

That tight neck? Those constant headaches? The way you hold your breath without realizing it? These aren't separate issues - they're all connected.

Here's what most people don't realize: Your stress isn't just living in your head... it's living in your spine and the nerves that branch out from it.

This is where chiropractic adjustments make all the difference.

When stress creates tension and misalignment in your spine, it interferes with your nervous system's ability to communicate properly.

Those gentle adjustments? We're restoring proper alignment and taking pressure off the nerves that control everything from your sleep to your digestion.

The magic happens when your nervous system can finally function the way it's supposed to. Many of our patients walk in feeling wound up tight and leave with a sense of calm they haven't felt in months - not because we "cracked their back," but because we restored the connection between their brain and body.

“Wrist mobility matters! These stretches come straight from Dr. Dave’s martial arts training and are now part of what we teach our patients. Whether you’re at a desk all day or training hard, healthy wrists make all the difference. Try these out and let us know how they feel! 💪 quadcities

💛 The list of things we are thankful this year is a mile long, but the short list goes like this: our family, our friends, our health, our amazing staff and getting to practice Chiropractic and Acupuncture to treat patients who are often brushed aside as having “normal” symptoms or not feeling heard or cared for.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙏 I am so grateful that I was led to this path and THANK YOU to all of my amazing patients who have trusted us with your care.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ What are YOU most thankful for this year? We would love to hear. ✨

After way too many hours hunched over your desk, you’re feeling that familiar stiffness and pain.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your shoulders are creeping up to your ears, and your mid-back feels like a solid block of tension.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sound familiar? You’re not alone, AND you don’t have to “accept” it as a part of your daily routine.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Chiropractic care will help reduce those annoying and aching “knots” and restore balance to your body.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gentle adjustments work wonders to realign your spine and restore mobility and ease.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And if all of the insane popping viral chiropractic videos have made you nervous to give it a try, then we will meet you at your comfort level at each and every appointment! {insert line if they have the option to use an activator like “We even have a tool called an Activator if you don’t want a manual adjustment.”}
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
​​But here’s the best part: chiropractic care isn’t just about treating the symptoms – it’s about addressing the root cause of your discomfort and empowering you to live a life free from pain and restriction.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Drop a 🙌 in the comments if you’re ready to say goodbye to shoulder and mid-back tension, or tag a friend who needs chiropractic care!

Some people call me the oil hippy doctor, and I don’t mind! I love utilizing plant medicine with everyday life for everyday occurrences and forget this isn’t normal to most people. Actually, most things in my life aren’t normal compares to the general public 😂

Who’s with me or what are you curious about ?!

Your nervous system might be sending you signals you’re not recognizing! 👀

At in Moline, IL, we see patients every day who don’t realize their body is crying out for help.

Here are some everyday signs of nervous system dysregulation that most people dismiss as “normal”:

🔹 Clenching your jaw or grinding teeth (especially at night)
🔹 Feeling “tired but wired” - exhausted but can’t wind down
🔹 Digestive issues that seem to come out of nowhere
🔹 Temperature regulation problems - always too hot or too cold
🔹 Brain fog and difficulty concentrating on simple tasks
🔹 Sleep that isn’t refreshing even after 7+ hours
🔹 Getting startled easily by normal sounds or movements
🔹 Mood swings or feeling emotionally reactive
🔹 Chronic muscle tension in shoulders, neck, or back
🔹 Heart racing during calm moments

Your nervous system controls EVERYTHING in your body - from your heartbeat to your digestion to your sleep cycles.

When your spine isn’t properly aligned, it can interfere with these vital communications.

Chiropractic care helps restore proper nervous system function by removing interference in your spine, allowing your body to regulate itself naturally. When your nervous system is balanced, your whole body works better 🙌🏼

If you have been experiencing any of these common, everyday signs, come see us. 309.764.8821.

We see you...

& there’s a reason we are the reigning “low back pain whisperers” in Moline, IL at Birdsell Chiropractic & Acupuncture Clinic.

Many of our patients have tried pain meds, heating pads, endless stretches... you name it. And maybe you even find it hard to enjoy even the simplest things like picking up your kid or grabbing a glass from the top shelf.

The reason many of these “remedies” don’t work? You likely have a STRUCTURAL and/or soft tissue issue that needs to be resolved at the root.

We all have our own unique patterns and ways of moving whether we realize it or not.

These patterns could be from acute injury, yes, but they could even stem from always wearing your wallet in the same back pocket or slouching at your desk.

Our team at Birdsell Chiropractic will focus on addressing the root cause of your pain- no masking symptoms here!

If you’re stuck in the low back pain cycle, don’t give up! Chiropractic care might be the missing piece, and who knows, you might even feel 10 years younger. 😉

Call our office or send us a message to set up your first visit! 📲 309.764.8821 ext 1
