Why I came to New Day:
Before I came to New Day I was experiencing a lot of stress in my day to day, and didn’t really have an outlet or a way to help me work on my self care. I knew I should exercise and diet and do all these things, but there was still something missing, it felt like
And so I met Dr. Katie at a networking event and I thought “why not? I’ll give it a try. I’ll go for the consultation, just out of curiosity.” And after the first adjustment I committed to being a practice member; I decided this was something I wanted to do just based on how awesome the first adjustment was.
But then, being able to see the positive benefits over and over, over time. Within just a few weeks I just felt really really good! I felt like I had a whole new sense of awareness of my body, of how I sat, what I was doing for my self-care. And just overall an awareness of how I should feel and what feels good and what doesn’t, because that was very disconnected for me and had caused a lot of stress.
My chiropractic results:
Within a year I grew an inch and my whole posture improved, which was cool to see. But the biggest thing was that I was able to get pregnant!
This was something I had been curious about, and had mentioned to Dr. Katie at the initial consultation that I had wanted to be a mom and had tried to get pregnant for several years. I wondered if fertility/pregnancy was something chiropractic could help with. Knowing that the areas of the spine that impact the reproductive organs were improving in alignment and reducing tension, I knew it was possible.
And so now, a year and a half later, we have our baby! My experience of childbirth was so amazing, and I really owe it to this care and having done it consistently ahead of time and during my pregnancy. As it turned out, when I went into labor my baby was sunny-side-up, causing intense pain and “back-labor” which intensified excruciatingly with sitting or laying down. The ride in the car to the hospital was torture.
But when I got there, I don’t know how to explain it but somehow I knew how to move around and position myself, how to be, and how to focus– I just knew what to do! I was like an animal! It was so amazing to feel my body doing what it was meant to do and being able to stay focused and responsive in the whole process, even through the pain and intensity.
I don’t think I would have been able to do that at all without the awareness of my spine and relationship with my body that I had been building through the care. I would have just been sitting there– terrified!
Instead, an hour later, Danielle was born– they didn’t even have a chance to put an IV in me! It was just incredible and I could hardly wait to tell Dr. Katie and Dr. Virginia about my experience!
Why I continue my care with Dr. Katie
Being able to work on yourself, and be committed to that, choosing to feel better every day. It’s important to me as a business owner and a leader and someone who cares about the planet, and now as a mom.
