One of the best ways to stretch and/or pop your neck is on your back!

👇🏼Follow these steps and you may also get a good cavitation of your cervical spine!👇🏼

1. Lay on your back on the floor, a yoga mat, or firm surface

2. Place a rolled hand towel under the curve of your neck for support

3. Place your left hand (palm down) under your low back to help pull and relax your left shoulder down and away from your head

4. Use your right hand to gently pull your head towards your right shoulder (ear to shoulder motion); hold up to 20 seconds if you wish!

5. Switch your hands and repeat steps on other side

🧐So what’s the hype with taping?🧐

👇🏼This picture is of a client who had plantar fasciitis pain. After wearing our athletic Kinesio tape for just a few days, he noticed it made a difference and lowered his overall pain level. It is worth noting he didn’t change his activity status during this time either.
So the idea of taping to provide protection and reduce pain has been around for years, yet today there are numerous types of tapes and different taping methods. Which is best, and a better question is, are any of them necessary?
One type of tape is not necessarily better than the other. It all depends on the area it’s being applied, how it is being used, its intended function and the environment it will be exposed to (sweat, water, heat..etc.) Some will say taping helped them, and others who didn't mind their pain level much will perhaps say it isn't necessary!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

👍🏼It does help provide some pain relief, some tissues will be more supported, and circulation to superficial tissues is improved, but all of these are true only when it's applied and used correctly.

👉🏼It is not meant as the main way to protect from reinjuring a joint! If a joint is truly unstable, only specific strength exercises will help in the long run; in the short run, yes, taping for an athletic event can improve one’s awareness of the injury and in that way can help "protect" it. It also can reduce pain and acute inflammation. This can improve performance and is why it is still recommended to use if one must continue their sport. So many use it right after injury to quickly get back in their sport, but that says volumes more about the determination, competitiveness and perhaps ignorance of some players and coaches than the tape's ability to stop high loads and forces from further damaging the joint. The same goes for many braces out there. Never use tape or braces to increase your sense of security; that is right when re-injury is most likely to happen again.

👍🏼Use it as an additional relief, never as the primary treatment.

👍🏼It is best to seek professional advice to learn the best taping protocol.

👉🏼If you have questions, please reach out! You can also add on a taping session that includes education on how to apply it yourself at home to any session. Just let us know!:)

"Katie is an amazing massage therapist to say the least. She listens to what you and your body says and dives in to heal you. Katie has helped me to feel better so I can get back to better health. She recommend that I try meditation massage therapy and I’m so happy I did and will continue to do so! The meditation therapy helped me to relax my mind so I could focus on myself and the massage. It’s difficult for me to relax and stay focused but the meditation therapy really helped me focus on my breath and body. I believe this helped my body respond better to the massage.

You won’t want to miss this webcast from Natural Womanhood tonight!

Check out the link here: https://naturalwomanhood.org/getting-off-the-pill-webcast/

This FREE webcast will be hosted by our Editor Grace Emily Stark and Associate Editor Cassondra Moriarty, and is full of vital information and bracing encouragement for those contemplating the transition off birth control, or are already in the thick of it.

Please share the link and let your friends know! The webcast will start at 7:00 PM CDT (8 PM ET/ 6 PM MT / 5 PM PT) TONIGHT!

“Many women are eager to get off hormonal birth control to recover their health and well-being. But what happens next?

Unfortunately, many will experience some new side effects, as it takes time to rebalance their natural hormones or heal some underlying issue. In fact, some get back on the Pill because the transition off it can be so difficult.

One of our readers shared that when getting off the Pill, she experienced “many negative changes. Extreme anxiety, depression at beginning, derealization, mood swings, [and I was] extremely emotional.” Another said “hormonal acne came with a vengeance. Hair loss spiked but has gotten better.”

Undoubtedly, these side effects can be very discouraging and difficult to go through.

But there's hope.

If you are experiencing these challenges, or know someone who is, we invite you to join us on Tuesday, April 12, at 7 pm Central Time for a free webcast led by Grace Emily Stark and Cassondra Moriarty, and featuring two medical experts: Dr. Lauren Rubal, MD, and Dr. Lara Briden, ND.

The name of the event is “Getting off the pill…. For good.” Our goal is to support women transitioning off hormonal birth control with information and resources that will help them, whether they want to continue avoiding pregnancy, get pregnant, or simply regain a natural and healthy cycle.

The 4 key take-aways from this webcast will be:

1. What happens to a woman's cycle on the Pill and after she gets off it?

2. What are the causes of post-pill side-effects?

3. Understanding individualized treatment approaches

4. Examples of successful approaches to regaining a healthy cycle

Please join us on April 12, and please share this invitation.

Finally, on Sunday April 17, the webcast will be followed by an editorial deep dive on this topic with specific articles on acne, libido, weight gain and more.”

Be well,

In 2020 I wrote a post about "lunging" into the new year as the hardships of COVID had started.

The year 2021 flew by so fast, I apparently never shared my motto.

📊 Business tripled

📋 New business endeavors were created, launched, tweaked, and launched again.

🪄 Improvements to services/systems/materials were made.

🎓 Courses and certifications were completed!

🧐 Newsletters and social presence were much more infrequent and short, but for good reasons!

Since I live in CO and am also a conservative healthcare provider, I'm hesitant to say my motto for that year was really "fly high!" (If you don't get it, that's a good thing really.) 😊

This year I do want to take a pause and share:

My motto is all about ⚡️JUMPING⚡️ into the new year and into every opportunity! It's very appropriate for what all has came to fruition behind the scenes from work in 2021 and I'm so excited to share it with all of you! Thank you for your support.

Stay tuned for more!✨

What's one thing people forget when trying to improve their health and their overall lean body mass?

They forget to eat.

No, really! This is a big reason many don't see results.

✨Eating the right amount of protein and healthy carbs TOGETHER within 30 minutes of a workout improves recovery and fuels the body. Don't let your workouts go to waste! Without the proper nutrients, your body will take from itself to make up for it! Ewwwww. 😖✨

"Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. All we have is today. Let us begin."

Thank you, Mother Teresa!

Let me finish on some thoughts of just what we are called to begin for those of us in pain!:)

How is the quality of your life?
😒
How do you think your quality of life affects everything/everyone else around you?
😞
Do you think it’s interfering with your goals, desires, and dreams and if so, how do you feel about that?
😣
If you don’t like the quality of your life and how it's directly affecting your progress, then let me be the first (or maybe 5th person) to encourage you to DO something about it!
😊
Put that energy of worry, stress, fear, doubt, frustration to use! Our bodies signal pain in us for a REASON. It won’t help to ignore it another day.
👇🏼
Our client in the video below is a great example:

She came in with persistent hip pain that was only worsening with exercises (achy pain here and there-->sharp pain nearly daily) the more she tried to fix it.

There are a few things that gave her a jumpstart: She is FIT. She is motivated. She is strong. She is smart BUT, she had no reason to come in thinking she’d improve at that point.

But, she did. So what happened as a result?

She began to move in pain free ranges with exercises that SAME WEEK.

It took another week to slowly replace the more advanced exercises that were only adding to her inflammation with ones that would decrease the inflammation.

She can now do more advanced exercises without pain as well.
🙌🏼

We are working towards getting back to her high intensity workouts and running now, but this time with new routines, more self-care, and renewed confidence!
