The holiday season has a way of pulling us in a hundred directions at once. Between school events, travel, and family gatherings, it’s easy to get swept up in the hustle and forget what actually keeps us well.
Here are a few habits to anchor your family this season - practices that support both your health and your happiness:
1. Be intentional with your energy.
The people and environments you surround yourself with matter. Protect your family’s space by saying yes only to what feels aligned, and create quiet moments at home where everyone can recharge.
2. Support your nervous system.
When your nervous system is regulated, your body adapts better to stress, travel, late nights, and the inevitable sugar overload. Chiropractic adjustments, deep breathing, or even five minutes of quiet can make a noticeable difference in how your whole family shows up.
3. Create anchors, not rigid schedules.
Holiday calendars can get unpredictable, and that’s okay! Instead of stressing over the clock, focus on simple anchors your family can count on - reading a story before bed, turning on soft music while you cook, or taking a short evening walk. These steady moments signal safety and rhythm to the nervous system, no matter how busy the day has been.
4. Choose presence over perfection.
Your kids (and your nervous system) don’t need flawless decorations or a magazine-worthy dinner. They need you present, engaged, and willing to laugh when things get messy.
5. Nourish from the inside out.
Hydration, whole foods, and movement may sound simple, but they’re the foundation for energy, resilience, and mood - all the things we need to enjoy the season fully.
This year, let’s let go of the pressure and lean into habits that help us feel grounded, connected, and well, because that’s the standard our families deserve all year long! ✨

Your medicine cabinet might be filled with cough drops and cold meds this time of year…

But in our world, fall wellness starts with the nervous system. 🍂 We think of health a little differently. Instead of chasing symptoms, we focus on building a foundation that supports your body from the inside out - before you even get sick!

Here’s a peek at what’s actually in our fall wellness lineup - from chiropractic care to nutrient support to everyday rituals that help your body adapt to the season. ✨

And when you do need help from your medicine cabinet don't forget homeopathic brands like Hylands(found in most stores), Rowe Casa(Sold in our office), and Boiron(found on amazon).

A child’s brain is growing and adapting at lightning speed. This ability, called neuroplasticity, is how the brain builds new connections, learns new skills, and adapts to challenges.
From crawling to walking, reading to regulating emotions, neuroplasticity is at the heart of every stage of development.
But, what many parents don’t realize is that the brain can only adapt as well as the signals it’s receiving. If there’s stress or interference in the nervous system, it can change the way those signals are processed - which may impact things like sleep, focus, motor skills, digestion, or even mood.

🫶Regular chiropractic care sets the stage for more optimal growth and development. Adjustments tailored to your little one help restore smoother communication between the brain and body. When the nervous system is functioning clearly, kids have a stronger foundation for neuroplasticity - meaning their brains can learn, adapt, and regulate more effectively.

Every child’s path of growth is unique, but supporting the nervous system gives them the best chance to thrive - not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and socially, too. 🤍

We’ve all heard it called “cold and flu season”…but, there’s no “season” for germs. They’re around all year long. What changes this time of year is us.
As routines get busier, sugar intake rises, sleep gets disrupted, and stress piles on, the nervous system starts to carry more than it can handle. And when the nervous system is overloaded, the immune system is too - making it harder for your body to adapt and fight off what’s going around.
That’s why some families seem to catch EVERYTHING in November and December, while others breeze through with just a sniffle or two. The difference isn’t luck, it all comes down to adaptability.
Chiropractic care helps clear stress patterns in the nervous system so the body can:

💪🏻 Respond more efficiently to germs
😴 Rest deeply to recover and repair
🧠 Communicate clearly between brain + immune system
🌿 Stay resilient, even when life gets busy
So the next time you wonder why your family always seems sick this time of year, remember - supporting the nervous system gives your immune system the foundation it needs to do its job. ✨

You’ve made a birth plan.
You’ve packed the bag, read the books, and taken the classes. But, what’s often missing in birth prep is support for the nervous system - the very system guiding your body through every stage of labor, delivery, and recovery.
Your nervous system plays a central role in:

✨ Coordinating contractions
✨ Regulating pain perception
✨ Helping your body shift between progress and rest
✨ Supporting hormone flow and emotional regulation
✨ Recovering in the hours, days, and weeks postpartum
When your nervous system is clear and connected, your body is more adaptable, more in tune, and more prepared to do what it was designed to do.
That’s why chiropractic care during pregnancy is so beneficial! It’s essential for helping your body function at its best during one of the most important transitions of your life.
That kind of support deserves a spot on every birth plan. 🤍

Whether you’ve been counting down to it or dreading it, the end of Daylight Savings always brings a shift - one that directly impacts your body’s internal rhythms. Your nervous system plays a key role in this transition, regulating your sleep/wake cycles, hormone release (like melatonin + cortisol), and the way your body adapts to changes in light and routine.
When your nervous system is adaptable, it can roll with these changes smoothly. But, if it’s already stressed, stuck in “fight or flight,” or overloaded, even a one-hour shift can throw everything off. That’s when families start to notice:
😴 Trouble falling asleep or waking up too early
🌙 Feeling groggy even after “extra sleep”
😫 Mood swings + crankiness (kids + adults alike)
🧠 Brain fog and poor focus
A clear + balanced nervous system makes it easier to transition between wake and sleep, to calm the stress response, and to keep your body’s natural rhythms regulated. When sleep happens the way it’s designed to, your body has the chance to heal, reset, and recharge the way it needs to! 🌙✨
If you’ve already been struggling with the time change - or if you know this season is always tough on your sleep and energy - now is the perfect time to get back on track with consistent chiropractic care.
Supporting your nervous system helps your body find its rhythm again, so you can feel rested, balanced, and ready to take on your day. 🤍

November has arrived, and with it comes the start of the holiday season - cozy gatherings, family traditions, and so many opportunities to make memories! 🍂✨
BUT, here’s something we don’t often talk about - while the holidays are full of joy, they also bring extra demands on our bodies and our kids’ bodies too. From later nights and busier days to different foods and big emotions, it’s a lot of change in a short amount of time.
Your nervous system is the foundation that helps your family adapt to all of it. When it’s clear + connected, your body can handle change without getting stuck in stress mode. That’s how chiropractic helps every age stay resilient through this busy season.
💫 For kids: it supports focus, calmer moods, and stronger immunity so they can enjoy the fun without as many meltdowns or sick days.
💫 For parents: it helps regulate energy, stress, and sleep so you can be more present in the middle of packed days.
💫 For the whole family: it strengthens adaptability, allowing your body to recover faster from late nights, travel, or seasonal challenges.
In our office, our goal is making sure your nervous system is working the way it was designed to. When that happens, the body functions at its best, no matter what the season brings. 🤍

Ever notice your kids acting a little extra around the full moon? 👀 Parents have been saying it for generations - more meltdowns, restless nights, and big emotions.
The thing is, while the moon itself isn’t necessarily causing the chaos, it often lines up with something bigger happening in your child’s body…their nervous system working overtime.
When their little nervous system is stressed or stuck in “go, go, go mode,” it’s harder for kids to regulate emotions, settle at bedtime, or sleep soundly. Add in the excitement of fall activities, sugar, and busier schedules - and suddenly, those full moon nights feel even wilder! 🌕✨
Chiropractic care helps clear stress from the nervous system so kids can:

🤍Shift more easily from “fight or flight” into calm
🤍 Regulate emotions with less overwhelm
🤍 Settle into deeper, more consistent sleep
🤍 Adapt more easily into the busy season
So, if you’ve ever wondered why your little ones seem to “turn into werewolves” around the full moon 😉… remember that supporting their nervous system makes it easier for them to stay grounded and rested through all the holiday fun! 🤍

As the cooler weather sets in, it’s not unusual to notice your hands and feet feeling colder than the rest of your body. But, did you know this isn’t just about the temperature outside?
Your circulation is directly influenced by your nervous system. 🧠⚡ When there’s stress or interference along the spine, it can disrupt the way your brain communicates with blood vessels and muscles - making it harder for your body to regulate warmth and blood flow.
That’s why some people notice:

🧤 Cold hands and toes even when bundled up
💥 Tingling or numbness that shows up in the fingers or feet
😣 Stiffness in joints that feels worse in cooler temps
Chiropractic care helps keep those communication pathways clear, so your nervous system can do its job - directing proper circulation, reducing tension, and making it easier for your body to handle the ups and downs of seasonal change.
So if you’ve been blaming chilly weather for your icy hands and feet, remember - your nervous system plays a big role, too! Keeping it balanced makes all the difference. 🤍
