Sleep is your recovery, friends. It's your bodies ability to rest and recharge, heal, and grow and it's important to prioritize adequate time for this daily.

Is that tape on my mouth?
You betcha.

Does it look ridiculous?
Absolutely.

Will your spouse make fun of you?
💯💯💯

Here's why this is important:
I'm a mouth breather at night. This will create more nasal congestion upon awakening, restless sleep because of moments of apnea, and recovery can be altered.

By using a nose strip, I'm opening the airways to promote increased nitric oxide (NO) production. Nasal breathing can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is also known as the "rest and digest" system. This system can help you relax and feel calm. It can also lower your heart rate, blood pressure, and cortisol levels, and promote recovery and digestion.

Here's the deal: when you add two minor and cheap hacks to improve your sleep, you'll become more energetic and productive during the day.

Did you know that mouth breathing in kids is highly linked to bed wetting, ADD/ADHD behaviors, and focus issues during the day!?!

It's a big deal, friends.

Disclaimer: if you're a mouth breather, it make take some time to get use to taking your mouth at night AND keeping the tape on. Be patient and stick with it!

Can I say something that might sting?

Your provider cannot care more about your health than you.

Sorry if that hits hard!

I see this so often and it deserves attention:
Your healthcare provider can lead you to water, tell you the shortcuts, or give you direct access.... But they cannot make you drink it.

The limiting factor in your health is YOU.

If you're in a mental place of, "I know what I need to do, but I'm not doing it." Let's chat! I hear this statement often and patients don't even realize that this is an adrenal fatigue peak!

✨This shifts the care from symptom management to nervous system support/nourishment! ✨

Wanna know something INCREDIBLE about our bodies?

As a woman enters perimenopause, her adrenal glands start to shift to become the primary creator of her hormones (as the ovaries start to decline).

The adrenal glands sit on top of the kidneys and make a few hormones: Cortisol being a major one.

If she enters this phase of her physiology change with uncontrolled stress or a chronic "fight or flight" nervous system state.....

💥 Perimenopause and Menopause will feel worse. 💥

She will notice worse:
💥Mood swings
💥 Irritability
💥 Sleep issues
💥 Hot flashes
💥 Emotions that roller coaster

Because the brain and the adrenals are DEEPLY connected via the HPA axis. So her brain will take the first hit before the weight gain and puffiness kicks in.

Of all of the supplements on the market for perimenopause and menopause, I have found that none of them Target the support for the adrenal system the way it needs to.

Well, I've been trying one for a few months and I want to share it with you.

It's a Young Living product called Daily Hormone Essentials.
🌟 It's a liquid packet that you can drink straight out of the packet or add it into your water or smoothie.
The ingredients in this product are all supporting the adrenal glands and the clinical trials they did on it was very impressive!
➡️ There was a 62% improvement in the symptoms compared to a placebo
➡️ Zero side effects
➡️ 12 symptoms improved including some of the ones I listed above

I ordered a few of these boxes (there are 30 packets in a box), but if you are already a young living member, you can order these!

You will save more money by signing up for a Young Living membership compared to the purchase price in the clinic, but if you want to trial it for a few months first, we will have these!
➡️ If you've never ordered from YL, use the code SHAREYL on the link provided to earn 10% off on your first order!

Your body isn't working against you—it's communicating with you.

Instead of asking, "Why is this happening to my body?" reframe your question:

✨ "What is my body trying to tell me?"
✨ "What does my body need right now?"
✨ "How can I better support my body's ability to heal?"

Pain, stiffness, headaches, and fatigue aren't always the problem—they're often signals that something needs attention. When we stop fighting our bodies and start listening to them, we can make choices that support healing rather than just masking symptoms.

At Dobesh Chiropractic, our goal is to help you understand what your body is telling you and create a plan that helps it function at its best.

💙 Listen to your body. Support it. Help it thrive.

Education is empowering and the more you know, the better equipped you are to make informed decisions about your health.

The "chiropractic stroke" conversation still floats around and it will until the end of time, but I want to specify 🌟4 risks🌟 that should be part of a much larger conversation in medicine.

The combination of these four risk factors can do much more damage, and many humans don't even know it's happening!

1. Hypermobility
2. Ni****ne use
3. Birth Control
4. Migraines with auras, specifically

This group together is dangerous. I'm sure you've heard about smoking/ni****ne use and birth control and the risk of blood clots, but migraines with an aura, specifically, are an independent risk of stroke too.

Combine it? Woofta.

Hypermobility is rated on a scale of 0-9. Greater than 3 is indicative that excessive motion is happening in joints, but this is also linked to blood vessels and the lining inside the blood vessels.

You cannot change hypermobility.
You can support and treat migraines with auras.
You can make better choices (with your doctor on birth control).
You can stop smoking and using ni****ne.

🌟That limits a risk of 4 to 2.🌟

Choices. Actions.

Notice what's not in this conversation or studies listed?
Seeing a chiropractor.

One thing we do differently is identifying hypermobility on the first visit with a patient. If the patient is hypermobile (greater than 3), smokes or vapes, and is on birth control....guess what?

A conversation is happening.

It will change the technique we use too.
Individualized care > cookie cutter care.

🌟Attention: if you're planning on living to age of 65 or have a family member on Medicare now, please read through the following posts! 🌟

There is a current bill in the House of Representatives now to modernize Chiropractic care in the Medicare health plan.

If you're in South Dakota, Dusty Johnson has already supported the bill! ❤️

Please look on the link to see if you of any other House of Representatives members (from other states) are on this!

Please share so your friends/family in other states can send a message to urgent support for the bill! ❤️

➡️The data has spoken.
➡️Patients experience's have spoken.
➡️Doctors experience's have spoken.

And yet, we still have naysayers.

Maintenance care is defined as care that has completed a care plan, functional goals have been reached, functional limitations have been reversed or improved.

So, why do so many patients stop care after they feel great?
Why do they stop when life is easier when they MOVE better?
Why do they stop when they have experienced more mind-body connection and fear of pain or reinjury is gone?

Most of the time, it's because "their insurance stopped paying."
"They are back to normal now, so they don't need the expense."
"They will come back when they hurt again."

Let's break this down to reality:
1. Does anyone's insurance rock and pay 100% all of the time? Nope.
2. Their care plan due to injury and time out of work, PTO wasted, vacations altered costs them more to get back to life than regularly scheduled care!
3. Continuously staying on the mindset cycle of "when I'm injured again," is a 🌟NEUROPLASTIC🌟 way of ensuring you'll be injured again. Now, that's expensive.

In 2018, a RCT (random controlled trial) measured 328 humans and categorized them into symptom based care and maintenance care (regularly scheduled visits).

Wanna know what they found?
➡️ The maintenance care group had 🔥30 days LESS OF LOW BACK PAIN🔥!!!

What would you do with one month less of low back pain in a year?!

➡️ The maintenance group had 1.7 more visits than the symptom based group.
Approximately 2 visits more!!

When we think we are saving money by cutting costs on our health, we aren't! w
We are cutting time out of our lives by decreasing productivity, joy, and presence with our loved ones.

You're worth it. ❤️ Take care of you. ❤️
