Balance Your Hormones
What does hormone imbalance look like? Hot flashes, night sweats, bloating, irritability, brain fog, irregular cycle, and fatigue are just some of the symptoms. If you suffer from any of these and haven’t been able to find relief, why not try balancing your hormones naturally? A great option is to get your body tested with non-invasive nutritional testing to see if you are lacking specific hormone-related nutrients that may be causing or contributing to your discomfort. If you are, specialized nutritional formulations can be taken to correct the hormonal imbalance and relieve your symptoms naturally.

Fall Into Wellness
As the leaves change and routines settle back in, fall is a great time to check in with your health. Cooler weather often means more time indoors, busier schedules and less movement. Look for simple ways to stay active and connected. Get outside for a walk, enjoy the fall colors, prioritize nourishing meals and make time for rest. This is also a great season to revisit your wellness routines, including chiropractic care and massage. Small, consistent habits can make a big difference in how you feel throughout the season.

How’s Your Sleep Posture?
You spend nearly 1/3 of our lifetime sleeping, making your sleep posture extremely important to your daily wellbeing. Ideally, your head should remain in a neutral position. When side sleeping, pay attention to if the pillow is too thick or thin for you. Check if the neck becomes side flexed when laying on your side. Ideally the spine should be in neutral or straight. “Head forward posture” which is a jutting forward of the chin, is becoming more prominent with increased cell phone usage. Add to that a back sleeper with more than one pillow, the neck muscles are in a constant state of contraction trying to return to their normal length. Being pro-active could save you from a real “pain in the neck” later.
