Chiropractic care is surrounded by a world of misconceptions. Years ago, I truly thought the only reason to get a chiropractic adjustment was if I had a major injury. So today, i’m chatting with my personal and longtime chiropractor, Dr. Rachel Richards. Dr. Rachel finds her work as a chiropractor to be fulfilling because she really believes in the power her work has to change her patients lives.   

We’re digging in to all things chiropractic care from the origin story of chiropractics to how you can go about finding an aligned chiropractor in your area. Personally, I take my whole family to the chiropractor for a whole host of reasons and some of them might surprise you.  Dr. Rachel practices with an applied kinesiology background and specializes in Neural Emotional Techniques that help patients process stored trauma and emotions. 

She's sharing  what you can expect from a chiropractor, when to see a chiropractor as opposed to a regular doctor, and so many helpful tips.   Yes, you can come to the chiropractor if your back hurts, but you can also go when you’re experiencing a whole host of other issues.   My kids literally come to me asking for chiropractic adjustments when they aren't feeling their best.  Dr. Rachel explains that this is because chiropractic care focuses on balancing the nervous system. You will walk away feeling confident that you can go find a chiropractor and explore the benefits for yourself!
