Why do we put you through pain to help get you out of pain? 😅

Sounds contradictory, right?

Scraping & Gua sha Gua use a smooth-edged tool to scrape the skin and underlying soft tissue in repetitive strokes. This controlled tissue trauma triggers a healing physiological responses.

1. Increased Blood Flow
The scraping creates mild inflammatory response and sometimes redness from increased blood circulation to the area. Enhanced blood flow brings oxygen and nutrients, supporting healing.

2. Muscle Relaxation
The mechanical pressure and stroking action helps release muscle tension. Similar to massage, it can reduce muscle guarding and stiffness to help make the adjustment move with ease rather than push through restriction.

3. Fascia Release
Scraping can help break up fascial restrictions and adhesions which improves tissue mobility and reduces tightness

4. Pain Reduction
The scraping stimulates nerve endings, which can provide pain relief through the “gate control theory” where stimulation overrides pain signals. When muscle tension is reduced, pain also decreases.

So while it might be painful to receive, you end up leaving that much better ✨

From Dr. Leilani Anne Wagner | Doctor of Chiropractic -
I have struggled with unexpected weight gain for the last 2 years. It was like I hit 40 and then all my lifestyle choices were suddenly wrong. The way I had been living wasn’t working anymore… but I also stopped powerlifting & I was more sedentary than I had been in years. I was tired more and I was eating all over the place.

Once I started making these changes and managing my stress more, the weight started to drop, especially around my midsection. It’s something that I’m still working on & I notice that when I don’t do these things, the weight comes back.

Our bodies are changing and we must continue to honor them through these transitions. If you need support, GynoChiro / Gynofascial rebalancing & chiropractic can be supportive of the hormonal shifts taking place. When our nervous system is clear, the communication between our brain & body is more clear, and we can understand & express our needs more clearly. Comment “ME!” And we’ll DM you the schedule link. Mention this post & we’ll drop your Comprehensive Functional Exam to $125 (typically $220-$359).

Did you know that chiropractic helps you adapt to stress more efficiently?

How do we measure this? Heart Rate Variability.

According to Effect of Chiropractic Care on Heart Rate Variability and Pain in a Multisite Clinical Study by Dr. Zhang, et. al- After a single adjustment, the mean heart rate reduced, the standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals increased, and both high-frequency and low-frequency components increased, indicating improvements in parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system activity. Pain scores also reduced significantly.

Research done by Dr. Heidi Haavik, indicates that chiropractic care appears to increase the healing and calming side of the autonomic nervous system, specifically the parasympathetic nervous system - your rest and digest, where you want your baseline to be. Stress activates your sympathetic nervous system - fight, flight, fawn or freeze. The research showed that among 539 adults who had HRV recorded before and after adjustments, there were significant improvements in HRV measurements. Additionally, 111 adults who had HRV measured across four weeks of chiropractic care showed sustained improvements in their measurements over that time period.

Chiropractic isn’t just for back pain, it’s for your overall health and well being. Let’s help you adapt more & experience life more clearly.
