๐ŸŽ€ PINKTOBER! Moffitt feels today๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

Ask any woman whoโ€™s had a scare or worseโ€ฆ waiting for that scan to come back seems like forever and a day. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Itโ€™s not lost on me that so many women leaving Moffitt donโ€™t get the GOOD news๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป I did today. Iโ€™m here for โ€œhigh risk surveillanceโ€ every 6 months and consider that fortunate. ๐Ÿ€

My journey around a breast cancer scare is teaching me to love myself more. ๐Ÿ’“Iโ€™ve wasted countless thoughts and emotional energy during my adolescence and adult life wanting my breasts to be differentโ€ฆbigger, better, whatever. Now I just want to keep them as healthy as possible and quite frankly, f**k the rest of the nonsense. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

So much ๐Ÿ’• for all our mothers, sisters, aunts, daughters, grandmothers and friends whoโ€™ve faced breast cancer. ๐ŸŽ€ We send strength to those fighting ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿป, celebrate the survivors ๐ŸŽ‰and lovingly remember those who lost their battle. ๐ŸŒˆ

๐Ÿ˜ญALL THE FEELS TODAY!! ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Saying goodbye to this incredible woman is harder than I ever imagined. Erinโ€™s been our Office Manager for 14.5 out of the 15 years Iโ€™ve been practicing. Sheโ€™s been an integral part of our growth and success. ๐ŸŒŸ And sheโ€™s kept me sane. Thatโ€™s no easy task! ๐Ÿ˜† Sheโ€™s been wholly dedicated and has always gone above and beyond for me and for our patients. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸปHer friendly smile and caring presence will be greatly missed. I feel so incredibly blessed to have had her by my side on this journey. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Erin is moving on to work for an organization where she feels called to help pregnant women. She will undoubtedly be an amazing addition to their team. ๐Ÿ˜‡

Endings always provide space for reflection. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป Iโ€™m filled with gratitude for the unwavering support and friendship Erinโ€™s given with such an open heart. ๐Ÿ’œ Sheโ€™s truly one in a million. ๐ŸŒŸ

Cupping for my shoulder pain. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป
Check out the dark purple color on the one cup! ๐Ÿ˜ฑThatโ€™s where it hurts the most.

Ever seen those Olympic athletes with cupping marks? Swimmers often sport them. Why? ๐Ÿค” Cupping provides pain relief and improved range of motion for aching or injured joints and muscles. ๐Ÿคฏ

Cupping is an East Asian medicine technique and can be done with ๐Ÿ”ฅ or a pump to create a vacuum. The suction pulls stagnant blood to the surface and allows for better oxygenation of the soft tissues which promotes healing. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸปTypically, the darker the color, the better the outcome. ๐Ÿ’ฅ

People mistakenly think anywhere you place a cup will naturally leave a purplish-red bruise or hickey. Not true! โŒ The other cups placed on my back and pec muscles barely showed any discoloration. But that one spot on my shoulder, holla! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Also, when cupping is repeated, the areas with the most stagnation will start to show less discoloration over time. โœ…And the patient reports feeling less pain and better mobility. Winning! ๐ŸŒŸ

If youโ€™re local and want to try cupping, give the office a call! 772-564-8383. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Natureโ€™s magnificent art! ๐ŸŒ…

Living on the east coast of FL, we witness the beauty of sunrise โ˜€๏ธ, but the west coast boasts the most amazing sunsets!Truly breathtaking! โœจ

Sunsets remind me that endings can be just as beautiful as beginnings.๐ŸงกWhen we arrive at the end of the day, or at the conclusion of any chapter in our lives, ๐Ÿ“–may we pause for a moment of reflection to be grateful for what was and trust the sun will rise again tomorrow. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Happy 25th birthday to this shining star! ๐ŸŒŸ Today and every day I celebrate the amazing woman you are! ๐Ÿ’—๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ˜‡

This beautiful soul, Ananda, came into my life when she was only 13 and is one of my greatest blessings. What started out as a patient-practitioner relationship has grown into a mother-daughter-friendship and now she teaches me. Watching her journey has been inspiring... seeing her graduate high school, finish college, complete grad school with a MSW, start a practice of her own and become certified in NET!! Anandaโ€™s healing energy and compassionate soul infuse her work and will help many people change for the better. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป The sky is the limit for this one- sheโ€™s born of rainbows ๐ŸŒˆ, star dust โœจ and sunshine. โ˜€๏ธ

17 yrs ago, we shared 3 years of acupuncture school โ˜ฏ๏ธ. Now, we still take care of each other. ๐Ÿค—

Steve is a talented acupuncturist, ๐ŸŒŸastrologist and all around fantastic human. After experiencing significant and measurable results from our last NET session, Steve came back for more NET to continue his healing journey. And what an amazing session it was ending with some cool cosmic energy shifts! ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿชโœจ

Get ready bc Steve .505 just signed up for his first NET training conference in March! Heโ€™s gonna be a great NET practitioner! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

NET helps release negative thoughts๐Ÿ’ก, feelings and behaviors that have their roots in subconscious emotional patterns formed by past events in our lives. When we donโ€™t have the ability, awareness, or coping mechanisms to resolve negative feelings at the time theyโ€™re happening, they often create beliefs and behaviors that are maladaptive. Have you attempted to change a thought, feeling or behavior but then fall back into old patterns? ๐Ÿค”
