At Embrace Family Chiropractic, we understand that neck and back pain can significantly disrupt daily life. These types of discomfort often stem from various factors—like poor posture, stress, injury, or repetitive strain—which can all lead to misalignments in the spine. When these misalignments interfere with the nervous system, the result is often pain, stiffness, and restricted movement. At our office, we are dedicated to not only providing relief but also addressing the root cause of your pain through our specialized, neurologically-focused approach.

Pregnancy comes with a lot of stressors. With numerous questions, exams, appointments, and your neighbor’s mother asking you how long you plan to breastfeed, the emotions can start to spiral. Not to mention the societal pressures to have the perfect baby shower, nursery, registry, organic cotton clothes, a trendy gender reveal, and which diaper on the market has the cleanest ingredients but is also blowout-proof… and those are just a few of the stressors. What about the birth plan? You name it, you can probably find a reason to stress about it.

For countless overstressed parents in today’s world, no matter how hard they try to prioritize sleep, regularly attend yoga classes, download another meditation app on their phone, or counteract their constant stress with things like magnesium, melatonin, and now maybe even an infrared sauna and daily cold plunges, they still struggle with nonstop stress.

Seasonal allergies, also known as hay fever or allergic rhinitis, are allergic reactions that occur during specific times of the year. They are triggered by environmental factors such as pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds. While anyone can develop seasonal allergies, children are at more risk since their immune system is still developing.

Preconception is the period before a couple actively tries to conceive a child. It involves preparing the body and creating the best environment for a healthy pregnancy and baby. This can include factors such as regulating the nervous system, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing pre-existing medical conditions, addressing nutritional needs, and reducing exposure to potential toxins and risks. Preconception care aims to enhance the chances of a successful pregnancy and a healthy baby.

Pregnancy can be an amazing time for you and your body. For some, it comes with the wonder of growing a new being inside of your body, glowing skin, and a luxurious full head of hair.  For others, it can be movement-restricting, painful, and struggling with some incredible constipation. Between hormone variation and the progressive movements of your pelvis throughout pregnancy to accommodate this new bundle of joy, it can keep you guessing what may be coming next. Knowing the progression of events and how to keep your body moving optimally can assist with a positive pregnancy and delivery experience. You can see a physical therapist (PT) who specializes in pelvic health to help guide you through this process.

Imagine that every single time the weather changes even just a little bit (hello, Midwesterners every day), your child’s sinuses and nasal passage get jammed up, and they’re instantly congested.

Do you have a child that struggles with getting enough sleep? Maybe your kid has a lot of energy and doesn’t know how to relax at bedtime.
