We’ve all been there. Life is going great, we are in a great flow, and then something happens that completely changes the course of our lives. The past year has been one of those times for all of us living in a COVID-19 world. But coming out of this situation isn’t just about taking things day by day; it’s also about looking toward the future and what we want our life to look like.
If you’re anything like me, then you understand that sometimes we can get stuck in routines that we may not have wanted to create at all. And it can sometimes seem like there’s no way out. That’s how I felt while I was living with PCS (Post Concussion Syndrome).
There was a time when my body was fully connected, everything worked as intended and life was pretty easy. But then a disruption happened, a bad car accident when I was 16 that left me with severe brain fog, loss of memory, changes to speech, and a loss of emotion. These changes lasted for over 8 years and I found myself stuck in a rut of dancing around the ‘new me’.
I, like many people out there, was stuck in a pattern of living that I wasn’t happy with, but didn’t know how to get out of (much like the past year living through COVID-19). On top of that, maybe you were already struggling with your health – things that were only made worse by the lifestyle changes exacerbated by COVID.
But I’m here to tell you the good news: if we just start from scratch and do something completely different than what we were doing before COVID-19 hit us (which is true for me too), life will be easy again like it used.
For me, that shift came when I learned about a little know procedure called Specific Chiropractic. It’s an approach that focuses on the upper neck, and the relationship the neck has to the brain stem. It’s an area often overlooked by other professionals but for people like me (and maybe you too), is the key to regaining control of your health.
The upper neck is SO important for our health and is an area that can be damaged throughout our life. Small car accidents, falls down the stairs, sports accidents like concussions, change the way the neck and brain work. What Specific Chiropractic does is look to identify the cause of the problem, and once that cause is corrected, the body is able to begin the healing process. As we know, the body is the best doctor around. It’s supposed to be healthy, that’s our default setting. If we are off that line of health, it isn’t by accident. Once we are able to find and correct the CAUSE, the body will get back to doing its thing and good health will follow.
COVID-19 is a pattern interrupt, the same way Specific Chiropractic was for me. What we chose to do once we have a fresh start is up to us. But the freedom of being able to choose is what Specific Chiropractic is all about. If you find that you’re in a situation where you are stuck and don’t know where to turn, this just might be the solution you’ve been searching for.
The first step is to set up a brief 10 minute Zoom consult to see if we can help. 10 minutes might just make all the difference in your life.
