Why Nervous System Regulation Matters

Your nervous system is your body’s command center. It controls digestion, hormone production, energy, mood, inflammation, and recovery. When it’s overwhelmed by stress — whether physical (like poor posture), chemical (like processed food or toxins), or emotional — the body gets stuck in fight-or-flight mode.

That’s when symptoms show up: fatigue, bloating, hormonal issues, brain fog, stubborn weight, sleep issues, or chronic pain.

Chiropractic care helps regulate the nervous system by improving spinal alignment, reducing tension, and activating the parasympathetic “rest and digest” state. When we combine this with targeted lifestyle interventions, we create the ideal environment for healing.

How I Integrate Spinal Health with Functional Medicine & Lifestyle Medicine:

🧠 Nervous System + HRV Testing

I begin with neurological scans and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) testing to assess how your body is handling stress and where nervous system interference may be occurring. This helps guide your chiropractic care and gives us a foundation for long-term health improvements.

🏃‍♀️ Restorative Movement & Posture Support

Movement isn’t just about burning calories — it’s about how your body moves through life. I assess spinal health, mobility, and posture, and give you functional movement strategies to reduce compensation patterns, prevent injury, and support your nervous system.

This includes:

• Postural corrections for desk workers

• At-home rehab exercises

• Nervous system-friendly workouts (like walking, Pilates, breathwork)

• Breath and core activation to support the spine and vagus nerve

🥦 Nutrition That Supports Your Nervous System

Through functional medicine, we assess how your nutrition is affecting your stress response, gut health, hormones, and inflammation. I provide personalized nutrition strategies that support both healing and performance — whether that’s blood sugar balancing, gut repair, or anti-inflammatory support.

🔬 Targeted Functional Testing

If needed, we’ll explore functional lab testing (like GI mapping, hormone panels, or micronutrient testing) to get deeper insight into what’s going on beneath the surface. These tests guide our nutrition and supplement protocols so that your body has the tools it needs to heal — without guesswork.

🔁 Ongoing Nervous System & Lifestyle Coaching

Healing isn’t a one-and-done event — it’s a process. We’ll use regular chiropractic care, functional re-evaluations, and lifestyle coaching to monitor progress and make adjustments based on your goals, energy, and how your body is responding.
