The Source Chiropractic Seattle

Chiropractic is seeing the whole picture

A common thought is that chiropractic is just about back pain. People often forget that chiropractors thrive in observing the whole person, building care designed to help your whole system move through life. I often look at ankles, knees, wrists and elbows for our clients as those areas are how we directly interact with the world.

Whether you are an active runner, dancer, weight lifter, keyboard warrior, artist, whatever ways you move, your extremities carry the forces of your expression through your whole body. I love seeing the ways that people light up when they feel their favorite thing become easier as part of care. And you deserve care that sees all of you.

Movement is medicine

Being able to help artists and creatives return to their love with peace and ease in their body is such an honor. Yarn Dragon has built a beautiful community around making stunning works of knitwear and yarn. He had mentioned his carpal tunnel to me, and knowing how much knitting he does, I wanted to help.

Our bodies are designed for movement. When we are passionate about our work and then notice discomfort or tension that can slow us down, it can be disheartening. Chiropractic creates space for ease and movement to help you stay connected deeper to your passions and your creative and expressive spirit.

If pain or stiffness has been getting in the way of your practice, that’s not just something to push through. It’s information worth paying attention to.

I got that dog in me

(And they are probably napping)

Our nervous systems are trained by the world around us. The stimuli we encounter and patterns we allow train our bodies to feel and interact in a variety of ways. I find excitement that we can train our systems resilience, not just surrender to stress.

Don’t forget to train your resting state. Make space to ground, breath, and enjoy the peace you deserve. Chiropractic, massage, maybe a nap in the sun to help you reset. All are beautiful ways to help your system relax and decompress.

Healing takes time

So often we are asked about timelines with care. So many of us have been living in our movement patterns for years, which can take time to shift towards what we need to do now. As our demands change, so does our body.

I love that the body is resilient and will find ways to move. I also love creating spaces where it can learn optimal movement systems so you can live more freely. That’s the core of chiropractic.

Through time and curated care, you will feel the lightness and freedom of movement you may not have thought possible.

Don’t forget to breathe

You’re carrying so much, and that’s okay. When you are building something powerful, life will give you a lot to navigate to make sure the powerful thing comes in supported and ready to thrive.

Take the space for self care.
Take the space to breathe.
Take the space to prepare your body to receive your blessings.

Every moment of connection, whether it be with self, your people, or healing facilitators, creates spaces for you to breathe in the dreams you are calling in.

Don’t forget to breathe. You’ve got this

You showed up for you

Life is a stressful experience sometimes. But every day is the chance to show up. To be the most you you can be that day. To show up for yourself, your dreams, and the communities you love.

Every movement is a chance to unlock the greatest potential within you. Keep chasing it.

Let them see you sweat

Never let them see you sweat has been an expression I have heard my whole life. To me, it has always felt like the idea that if you let people see you struggle, they will abandon you or think less of you.

F**k that noise

We are in an era where people deserve to witness your brilliance at whatever capacity you like. Celebrating the journey, the highs and the lows, provides space to truly celebrate the reward.

Opening a practice has been one of the most difficult experiences of my life. I worry a lot, I see the ways we are building and see the areas that need more support. In thought being brave and keeping it to myself was the path, but in the reality, it stopped some people who could support in a variety of ways from showing up.

We are building a powerful future, a beautiful reality. And, it takes a village.

So, let them see you sweat. Let yourself be celebrated and supported for every step you take towards the dream becoming real.
