I have been seeing a lot of people dealing with personal stressors that affect the body. This is an article by an author I follow. Also, I would look in attachment styles for understanding how you respond to people.

If you often keep your feelings to yourself, you may be living by beliefs that feel protective but quietly block closeness. Here are seven of them, and the truth behind each.

Good evening! Just wanted to post that I think best to be closed in the morning for sure as this storm moves thru the area. We will evaluate in the morning and decide on the afternoon as we see conditions. Stay warm and safe!

This week marks 21 years in practice at Collins Clinic of Chiropractic & Sports Medicine. We have been humbled to help thousands in Waxhaw, Weddington, Marvin and surrounding areas. It is our goal to make each patient feel like we are treating them as a person and not just another number in a system.

We believe that life is too short to hurt.
We believe the body is smarter than we are.
We believe that symptoms should not be ignored as it is your body telling you something is wrong.
We are committed to building health in our community.

This commitment has led to the addition of Dr. Chao last summer. Dr. Chao is a chiropractor, naturopathic physician and classically trained licensed acupuncturist. These skills allow for a diverse treatment and understanding of the body and ways to assist the body in healing.

We have also continued to invest in technology to assist the body in healing. Last year, we added a class 4 laser and Shockwave therapy to help in treating various acute and chronic conditions and pain. The results have been amazing.

We are grateful that we have been able to serve and practice in the community for 21 years and look forward to the next 20.
If we may be of service to you, please let us know.
