Cupping isn’t just for relaxation or gentle myofascial release. It’s a powerful tool for rehab, too.💪

After an injury, the brain and body can lose that seamless communication. Cupping helps reestablish that connection—creating space, improving tissue glide, and giving the nervous system clearer feedback so movement feels more natural and controlled again.

As a chiropractor (and personal trainer at Axis Strength Training), I was planning to do cupping on some of our athletes before a competition, then my client came in with a tweaked shoulder. We threw some cups on it, and the difference was immediate and noticeable—especially under load.

Here’s her hitting dumbbell bench with a cup on the shoulder. Proof that this stuff works when you apply it with intent.🔥

Your genes influence so much more than you might think — from how your body handles stress and inflammation, to how well you tolerate dairy, absorb nutrients, and even your risk for cognitive decline or autoimmune issues.

Generic advice and one-size-fits-all supplements often fall short because they’re not based on your unique genetic makeup. That’s why genetic testing is so powerful. It gives us a clear map of how your body is wired, so we can make much more targeted recommendations for supplements, diet, and lifestyle support.

With MyHappyGenes® testing, we can finally get more specific with the supplements and strategies that actually match your genetics — instead of guessing.

Introducing the Vibracussor! 🙌

Unlike a standard massage gun (which uses high-amplitude percussive strikes mainly for home or athletic recovery), the Vibracussor is a clinical instrument. It delivers controlled, piston-like compression waves that travel deep into the fascia, releasing adhesions, easing muscle tension, improving circulation, and preparing the body for more effective chiropractic care—something a typical massage gun isn’t designed to do.

Come in and experience the difference for yourself.

Muscle testing in action 💪

Muscle testing is one of the most direct ways I assess how the nervous system is firing. It helps me identify muscle imbalances, compensation patterns, and both new and old injury sites that may not show up on standard orthopedic tests alone.

I use muscle testing as part of every examination and before adjustments so the correction can be more specific to what your body actually needs that day.
Within the muscle tests, we can also perform different variations to determine whether the issue is coming from the spine or from the joint itself — for example, the shoulder. This helps us pinpoint the true source so the adjustment is even more precise.

Did you know? Myotome testing evaluates specific nerves and spinal segments. That’s why we test multiple muscles — we’re mapping which nerve pathways and spinal levels are working properly (and which ones aren’t).

This is how we go beyond “where it hurts” and get to the root of why it’s not functioning optimally.

Why should kids get adjusted?

Because their growing bodies deserve the best foundation possible.

The nervous system is the most important system in your body — it controls everything: movement, healing, focus, immunity, and development. When spinal misalignments interfere with those pathways between the brain and rest of the body, the body can be in a state of dis-ease.

Gentle chiropractic adjustments help regulate the nervous system, clear the communication highways, and support optimal function from the inside out.

This can mean:
✅ Better sports performance & coordination
✅ Reduced risk of injuries
✅ Stronger immune system function
✅ Improved sleep, focus & overall resilience

Kids’ spines take a lot of stress — sports, heavy backpacks, falls, screen time, and rapid growth. Regular maintenance adjustments keeps their nervous system firing clearly so their bodies can thrive the way they were designed to.

🧬 Exciting News! We’re expanding our services!

Our goal has always been to help your body function at its best by improving nervous system communication and supporting your body’s natural ability to heal, adapt, and recover. That’s why we’re excited to introduce two new services that can complement your chiropractic care:

✨ Peptide Therapy
✨ Genetic Testing

Peptide therapy may help support recovery, tissue health, resilience, sleep quality, healthy aging, exercise performance, cognitive function, and overall wellness. Whether you’re an athlete looking to optimize recovery, someone recovering from physical stress, or simply looking to support healthy aging and vitality, peptide therapy may be a valuable addition to your wellness plan.

Genetic testing provides personalized insights into how your body responds to nutrition, exercise, stress, recovery, and other lifestyle factors. By better understanding your unique biology, we can help guide more individualized recommendations to support your health goals.

While chiropractic adjustments help restore proper nervous system function and communication throughout the body, these services can provide additional tools to support recovery, adaptation, and long-term wellness.

Together, they help us take a more personalized approach to supporting your body’s ability to function, heal, and thrive.

Every person is unique. Your care plan should be too.
