𝗥𝗘𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗢 𝗥𝗨𝗡 𝗔𝗙𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗔 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗡

Your body needs time to recover from the stress of 26.2 miles, even if your soreness fades quickly.

Taking a few days completely off, then slowly rebuilding with short, easy runs, allows your muscles, joints, and nervous system to recover. Rushing back too quickly can lead to lingering fatigue, poor performance, and preventable injuries.

Recovery is part of the training. Give your body time to absorb the work before asking it to do more.

Candy is still candy, but there are better options if you are looking for less sugar, fewer artificial dyes, or more allergy friendly choices for your family.

The American Heart Association recommends limiting added sugar, and for kids ages 2 to 18, the general recommendation is no more than about 25 grams of added sugar per day.

That can add up quickly with traditional Halloween candy.

A few better options to look for:

🔹𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗦𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘀
Lower sugar gummy candy options, with some products containing around 3 grams of sugar per bag.

🔹𝗨𝗡𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟
Chocolate candy made with less sugar, Non GMO ingredients, and Fair Trade chocolate options.

🔹𝗬𝘂𝗺𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵
A great allergy friendly option. Many of their candies are organic, dye free, and free from the top 9 allergens.

🔹𝗟𝗶𝗹𝘆’𝘀
No sugar added chocolate and candy options, often sweetened with stevia.

🔹𝗭𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗽𝗼𝗽𝘀
Sugar free lollipops made with tooth friendly sweeteners like xylitol and erythritol.

🔹𝗝𝗢𝗬𝗥𝗜𝗗𝗘
Lower sugar candy made without artificial additives.

🔹𝗕𝗘𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘
Lower sugar gummies made with monk fruit, allulose, and prebiotic fibers.

A few things to look for when choosing candy:
• Lower added sugar
• No artificial dyes
• Simple ingredients
• Allergy friendly labels
• Individually wrapped options
• No sugar alcohols if your child has a sensitive stomach

And remember, the 80/20 rule still applies.

It is okay to enjoy your favorite candy a few times a year. Holidays and special events are not the time for restriction. It’s okay to make better choices most of the time while still enjoying the fun moments.

WE’RE IN THE THICK OF FALL MARATHON SEASON!

If you’ve already crossed the finish line or your big race is still coming up, here are some important recovery reminders!

Just because your legs aren’t sore anymore doesn’t mean your body is fully recovered.

Your sleep, appetite, energy levels, and even resting heart rate can all give you clues about how well you’re bouncing back.

I know it’s tempting to jump right back into your routine, especially with spring race goals already on your mind. But taking the time to properly recover now helps set you up for a stronger, healthier training cycle.

Enjoy the downtime. Let your body adapt. You’ve earned it!

Save this post for after your next big race!

A lot of people think acupuncture is something you have to stop once you get pregnant, but that is not the case.

When performed by a trained provider, acupuncture can be used throughout pregnancy to support the body as it changes.

Treatment looks different depending on the stage of pregnancy and what your body needs. It may be used to support nausea, low back pain, pelvic discomfort, sleep, stress, headaches, and preparing the body for labor later in pregnancy.

Pregnancy is a lot on the body. Acupuncture can be one way to make it feel a little more supported.

Take the recovery… or your body will make you.

Pregnancy has been such a reminder that when your body is going through a major transition, whether that is pregnancy, illness, injury, stress, or healing from something deeper, it is doing way more work than we give it credit for.

Sometimes it feels like you are “just tired” or “just sitting around,” but internally your body is building, repairing, adapting, regulating hormones, supporting your immune system, and trying to keep up with everything you are asking of it.

And sometimes the most productive thing you can do is actually slow down, listen, and let your body do what it is already working so hard to do.

Want to get the most out of your acupuncture session?

A few simple things can help your body respond better.
Come in hydrated, skip caffeine right before your appointment, and use the time on the table to actually slow down.

Practice deep breathing, meditation, or just let your body be still for a few minutes.

After your session, keep hydrating and pay attention to how your body feels over the next few days.

Acupuncture is not just about the needles. Give your nervous system the space to reset.

𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗟𝗢 𝗙𝗔𝗟𝗟 🎃🍁

Fall is one of my favorite times of year.

The crisp air, changing leaves, seasonal foods, and honestly, the best running weather.

In acupuncture and Chinese medicine, fall is connected to the lungs, immunity, and the idea of letting go.

It is a season that reminds us to slow down a little, breathe deeper, nourish our bodies, and support the immune system before winter.

And fall foods make that easy. Squash, apples, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, beets, and root vegetables are all nutrient dense foods that help fuel your body through the seasonal shift.

So as we head into fall, this is your reminder to move your body, get outside, eat with the season, and take care of yourself before the winter slump hits.

What are you most looking forward to this fall?

IS COLLAGEN WORTH THE HYPE?

Collagen can be a helpful addition for supporting joints, tendons, ligaments, skin, and recovery, especially for active adults, runners, and anyone with a history of soft tissue injuries.

It is not a miracle supplement, and it cannot replace strength training, rehab, good nutrition, or adequate recovery. Quality, consistency, and the type of collagen you choose all matter.

I use Ortho Molecular CollaGEN because it checks the boxes I look for, but the bigger takeaway is that collagen works best as one part of a well-rounded plan. We do sell this in the office!

𝗔𝗞𝗥𝗢𝗡 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗡 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞 💙💛

This is always one of my favorite race weeks of the year.

The Akron Marathon has such a special energy, and over the years, running the relay has become something I really look forward to every fall.

This year will look a little different. For the first time, I won’t be lining up for the relay as I’m still making my way back postpartum.

For now, I’ll be cheering on everyone tackling the marathon, half, and relay this weekend.

And since it’s race week, here are a few reminders from your chiropractor + fellow runner:

🔷 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗧𝗥𝗬 𝗔𝗡𝗬𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗡𝗘𝗪
Shoes, fuel, supplements, stretches… race week is not experiment week.

🔷 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗧 𝗛𝗬𝗗𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗡𝗢𝗪
Don’t wait until the night before.

🔷 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗭𝗘 𝗦𝗟𝗘𝗘𝗣
Especially earlier in the week when those pre-race nerves haven’t kicked in yet.

🔷 𝗞𝗘𝗘𝗣 𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗜𝗡𝗚
Easy walks, gentle mobility, and light movement are usually better than spending the entire week doing nothing.

🔷 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗧𝗥𝗬 𝗧𝗢 𝗙𝗜𝗫 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞
You’ve already done the work. Race week is about keeping your body feeling good, not cramming in extra training.

Most importantly, trust your training, enjoy the atmosphere, and soak it all in. Race day in Akron is a good one. 💙💛

Good luck to everyone racing. I’ll be cheering for you this year and hopefully back out there with you next year!
