Treating Signs of Aging Skin
Skin ages and becomes loose and less elastic as we grow older due to a reduction in fibroblast cells, which build the collagen proteins that keep our cells connected tightly. Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a safe and chemical-free way to trigger new collagen production. A hand-controlled device with tiny, shallow needles punctures the outer layer of the skin at 1000 times per second to create mild damage that will stimulate your body to produce new collagen and elastin. This process can be used all over the body, not just on the face, to treat wrinkles, stretch marks, scars, and more!
Have a Pain-Free Summer
No one wants to be in pain during the summer when there’s so much to do! Pain can prevent us from living our best summer life. As we spend more time outdoors engaging in activities like hiking, swimming, and biking, the potential for neck, back and overall muscle pain increases. Gentle, targeted spinal alignments along with soft tissue therapy release tension and pressure, relieving pain and preventing injury. This improves overall mobility, allowing you to stay active and enjoy summer to the fullest. Fortunately, maintaining your health and happiness is easier when chiropractic care is part of your summer wellness routine.

Unlike traditional pharmacies, which dispense mass-produced medications, compounding pharmacies specialize in customizing prescriptions. They combine pharmaceutical ingredients to create formulations in unique dosages, forms, and flavors, accommodating patients with allergies, sensitivities, or specific medical requirements. Compounding pharmacists work closely with healthcare providers to develop medications not commercially available or to alter existing formulations.

June is Migraine Awareness Month
Migraines impact one billion people across the globe and is recognized as the #2 cause of disability worldwide. While a migraine is a headache, a headache isn’t always a migraine. Headaches cause pain in the neck, sinuses, face, and head. Migraines, however, cause debilitating pain, visual disturbances, or both. They can last for hours or days and are often chronic. Without relief, migraines can cause other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, muscle weakness and can also lead to depression. Some of the most common triggers include stress, bright lights, sleep changes, alcohol, foods such as aged cheeses, and changes in exercise habits. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice on prevention and treatment.
Chiropractic Care for Migraines
Do you suffer from migraines? Chiropractors can help, by using various techniques targeting spinal alignment and nervous system function. Misalignments in the spine can create tension and disrupt nerve communication, contributing to migraine episodes. Through spinal adjustments, chiropractors realign the spine, relieving pressure on nerves and reducing migraine triggers. They may also employ massage therapy, stretching exercises, and lifestyle recommendations to address underlying causes like muscle tension and poor posture. By addressing these root issues, chiropractors help improve blood flow, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall nervous system function, providing holistic relief for migraine sufferers. Dr. Priscilla Narotam who specializes in migraine therapy can also recommend nutritional advice to alleviate/avoid triggers.
