A little cupping action to release the levators. Can you guess which side had been injured and more bothersome? . . . Dark red/purple blood pooling with the cups is a sign of stagnant blood flow due to injury or Chi (energy) imbalance. @belindajodc #improvingbloodflow #chiropractic #medicupping #acupuncturepoints #neckpain

Repost @crossoversymmetry . . . Passive things like massage, acupuncture, foam rolling, joint mobilizations, manipulations, dry needling, red light therapy, and whatnot, have a place when dealing with injury. They can initiate a response in the body that helps you feel better. Although those feelings are fleeting without a movement prescription to produce permanent changes. Active work strengthens, builds movement mechanics, and improves range of motion to move you past the issue rather than trying to hide it.

Happy Sunday!

HAPPY SUNDAY! 🤗 It’s clear there are multiple benefits to be had from incorporating a regular gratitude practice into your wellness routine. ⠀ ⠀ An article published by UC Davis stated, “Gratitude is associated with higher levels of good cholesterol (HDL), lower levels of bad cholesterol (LDL), and lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, both at rest and in the face of stress.”⠀ ⠀ Gratitude is also linked to better sleep, with both better sleep quality and duration being linked to a grateful attitude. ⠀ ⠀ This same outlook has been linked to higher levels of self-esteem and it can also help us make new friends: Thanking an acquaintance encourages them to pursue an ongoing relationship with you, as it sends a signal that there is potential for a high-quality relationship to be formed. #gratitude #immunefunction #bettersleep #sleep #drmarkhyman #relationships
