Hi everyone!

I am completely obsessed with all things pediatric, tongue-tie, ADHD, nutrition, vaccine, COVID-19 and COVID vaccine related. Obsessed is an understatement. My son calls me a health-aholic and my daughter can talk about the microbiome and the importance of eating the rainbow. I’m doing my best to raise them right and educate them to make their own decisions about their health. They still need help but they can read food labels and can discern ‘food’ vs ‘chemistry’.

Because of my work as a pediatric and perinatal chiropractor, I’ve been studying the research, listening to credible experts, joining groups, attending summits and educational workshops all about functional medicine so I can support my patients safely during this very difficult and trying time.

I got into functional medicine like many others because of my own health issues (likely brought on by all this pandemic stress!) When I brought up my concerns to my doctor and asked him to run some specific labs that I researched, he told me that he doesn’t believe in labs. Can you believe that?! I was so sick with undiagnosed anemia and autoimmune diseases that I had zero energy and also horrific insomnia. I gathered up the energy to leave this doctor’s practice immediately. It’s infuriating but it lit a fire inside of me that transformed me. This was truly a turning point for me and in this moment, I took responsibility for my health. After that interaction with my physician, I found another one who ran the wrong tests and then I got another one who I basically pleaded with to run some basic, specific tests. Now I have a team of specialists. I don’t want anyone to go through this.

We deserve better care, all of us!

I’m also a soccer mom-a goalie mom to be specific. #IYKYK. Both kids play year round soccer and futsal….thank goodness for stress reduction techniques. I love to work out, lift weights, yoga, HIIT, Kundalini and anything physical and spiritual. Currently obsessed with all things brain balancing: Cognitive Vision, reflex and balance training. I train my kids at the gym and we have an absolute BLAST!
