This year we took a pretty big leap! We moved to Vancouver, became clinic owners and somehow did it all with a newborn!

It’s been exciting, overwhelming, rewarding and definitely a learning curve… but we couldn’t be more grateful for where we are and what we are building together.

Here’s to taking the risk, betting on yourself and creating a life that feels like yours!

Kinda chic, if you ask me 🤍

Is persistent heel pain, tight calves, or lower back discomfort slowing you down?

If so, the issue might not be your legs or your back, it might be starting at your foundation. That is where custom foot orthotics come in. Designed as a targeted mechanical solution, orthotics correct the root structural issues causing pain throughout your body.

Who This Is For
This solution is specifically tailored for:

* Professionals who spend long, demanding hours standing on hard floors
* Athletes and active individuals seeking better movement efficiency and injury prevention
* Anyone struggling with conditions like plantar fasciitis (painful heel and arch inflammation)
* Individuals experiencing knee, hip, or lower back strain caused by improper foot alignment

Key Takeaway
Your feet are the foundation of your entire body. Getting foot orthotics isn’t just about making your shoes feel softer today, it is about correcting joint stress at the source so you can protect your knees, hips, and lower back for a lifetime of pain-free movement!

Powerhouse Chiropractic we offer assessments for custom made orthotics. Ask your chiropractor at your next appointment or if you are a new patient book online or call the clinic!

4 tips to help your baby with tummy time as a chiropractor mom 🩵

1. Keep elbows under their shoulders.
2. Roll into their tummy. This helps with their balance and helps them practice rolling which is a crucial milestone.
3. Elevate the surface: this can be a leg or a pillow.
4. Add movement and make it fun!

Does your baby hate tummy time? This could be a symptom of body tension and chiropractic care can help!

Headaches are common… but they are not something you just have to “live with” 🤕

This is a topic that is very close to Dr. Garcia’s heart because she personally understands how frustrating headaches and migraines can be. After a car accident in 2014, she experienced daily migraines for almost a year. Through a combination of chiropractic care, acupuncture, and lifestyle changes, she was able to significantly reduce the frequency and intensity of her migraines.

Now, she loves helping my patients understand their headaches and find ways to better manage them. 💛

Did you know there are different types of headaches?
1️⃣ Tension-Type Headaches
Often described as a “tight band” or pressure around the head. These are commonly associated with muscle tension, stress, posture, and prolonged positions.
2️⃣ Cervicogenic Headaches
Headaches that originate from the neck. They may involve one-sided pain, reduced neck mobility, and symptoms that are aggravated by certain neck movements or postures.
3️⃣ Migraines
Often more intense and throbbing in nature. Migraines may be accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light or sound, and can be triggered by factors such as stress, sleep changes, certain foods, or environmental factors.

How can chiropractic care help? 👐
✔️ Address muscle tension and areas of irritation
✔️ Improve mobility in restricted joints of the spine
✔️ Provide education on posture, movement, lifestyle factors, and triggers that may contribute to headaches
Your headache may not be “just a headache” sometimes the source of your pain can be connected to your neck, muscles, and nervous system.

If you’re experiencing frequent headaches or migraines, we would be happy to assess whether chiropractic care may be a helpful part of your overall management plan.

Pregnancy Is Hard Work. 🤰🏻🤰🏼🤰🏿
Your Body Deserves Support!

As your baby grows, your body undergoes significant changes. Shifts in posture, changes in your centre of gravity, and increased demands on your muscles and joints can often lead to discomfort throughout pregnancy.

Chiropractic care can help support your body during this time by improving mobility, reducing tension, and helping you move more comfortably through each stage of pregnancy.
Common concerns we see during pregnancy include:

✔️ Low back pain
✔️ Pelvic discomfort
✔️ Hip pain
✔️ Round ligament pain
✔️ Mid-back and rib pain
✔️ Neck and shoulder tension

Dr. Garcia is certified in the Webster Technique, a specialized assessment and adjustment approach designed for pregnant patients. The Webster Technique focuses on optimizing pelvic function and reducing tension within the muscles and ligaments surrounding the pelvis.

Whether you’re newly pregnant, preparing for birth, or simply looking for ways to feel more comfortable throughout your pregnancy, chiropractic care can be a valuable part of your support team.

📅 We would be honoured to support you throughout your pregnancy journey.
