Above Atlas Clinic

Two years.

That's how long this has been living in me: in drafts, in tears, in late-night and early-morning rewrites.

I wrote a book.

Not a clinical guide. Not a polished story written for people's comfort.

A book written directly to survivors, and to those brave enough to walk alongside them. About the parts of healing that are messy, sacred, and hard as hell.

It's called Unbroken.

The proof copy arrives on Tuesday. I'll be holding it for the first time.

Publishing date coming this week (I hope). I'm excited. I'm having a vulnerability hangover, so I thought I'd let you in on this little adventure of mine.

I have received letter from the government overlords that I can officially add “certified acupuncturist” to the wall and formally start seeing new or current patients Monday June 1 for acupuncture services such as needling, moxa, cupping, herbs and TCM physical diagnosis.

I’ve been on about a 3 year journey with self study and distance learning qigong and taijiquan through various online channels.

That led to deep diving the meridian and organ systems through a biomechanical lens. Which wasn’t enough for spicy brain.

the myopic viewpoint and needing to learn more had me enroll in the Wudang Daoist wellness academy out of china last year for a formal curriculum in philosophical daoism, a more structured internal forms practice, and how the martial arts and wellness come together to see the body and health cultivation in a new light.

Hella light bulbs went off with stuff I was already doing for myself and with patients, with a 3,000+ year old language and imagery overlaying a system wholly dependent on natural rhythms and cycles, that has made more sense to me than anything I’ve ever learned in my entire life.

So I decided to go back to school 10 years later for a 100 hour post graduate program in acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine.

And here we are. Practicing mandarin words of kung fu moves with my toddler in the kitchen.

Life is a trip.

I’d love to share with you the gifts God has given me to facilitate healing with my hands and tools.

Animal based , plant based, carnivore, vegan, omnivore, paleo, primal

gold jacket, green jacket … WHO GIVES A S**T

If you can get to a point where you can eat food that is actually food… you’re gonna be alright.

Might you have to temporarily limit things you react to in order to put the fire out and heal the body?

Yes! The first thing that has to go is the absolute trash panda garbage you’re lying to yourself about.

As always, talking to myself.

I’ll eat like these pictures 80% of the time, and then house a party sized pack of Oreos in 24 hours after a workout 🤷🏻‍♂️ no shame here. balance or whatever.

Meat vegetables fruits roots tubers herbs beans whole grains eggs dairy

Feet on grass. Sun on belly. Air in nose. Calm mind. Relaxed body.

Have that little snacky.

Happy. Well fed. Moisturized.

This is the way.

I grew up going to all kinds of fights with my Dad in Chicago.

Battle of the Badges, Golden Gloves tournaments, high school Fight Nights, intra club smokers, pro debuts.

We had a heavy and speed bag, 16oz gloves and a jump rope in the garage or basement at any given time.

For as long as I can remember, it’s been a part of my life.

I’ve always had a connection with and appreciation for the sweet science of boxing, even though Mom would never let me or fight competitively (probably a good thing!)

Stoked to have partner up with as a Silver sponsor for June Boom 3 on June 6.

Good boxing right here in Conway!!!

The body adapts at any age when you give it a reason to.

Your muscles don’t know how old you are.
They respond to challenge.

Your heart responds to movement.
Your bones respond to resistance.
Your balance improves when you practice it.

That’s how the body works.

When you ask more of it, it begins to change.

Walk consistently and your endurance improves.
Lift weights and your muscles grow stronger.
Stretch regularly and your mobility returns.

The goal isn’t to be younger.
The goal is to become more capable.

Age may influence how you train, but it does not eliminate your ability to improve.

Give your body a reason to respond.
Then stay consistent long enough to see what it can do.

“cranio-facial-sacral.”

I am a chiropractor. If you are on my table I am going to adjust you well. Usually the entire body. Bottom to top. Top to bottom. Coccyx (not often ha) to cervicals. Quite a few different ways to move every bone.

It is the most powerful thing I have to offer you.
anyone that is adjusted all the time swears by it.

But ABOVE ATLAS means everything literally above the atlas, C1, the upper most vertebrae of the spine.

The jaw, mouth, throat, nose 👃 , face , head 💀 , sinuses, sense organs via cranial nerves, brain 🧠 , mind 👁️, emotions, blood 🩸 and fluid 💧 via ventricular hydrodynamics. “Ascension” in a practical sense if you’re ready to talk about it.

Aside from the hands 🙌🏻 and feet 👣(hello hand foot face and scalp acupuncture 👀) the face lips 👄 tongue 👅 have the third largest distribution on the strange little sensory motor homunculus man.

There are structural, functional, genetic, anatomical variation, and energetic things that can heavily affect the ability of the nervous system to fully “regulate” (the jury is still not out on whatever that actually means. Feel over theory 🤷🏻‍♂️) that you cannot breathe, stretch or eat your way out of.

What I do. How it works. What it means.

Come find out. But these are some things which I have seen individual case success with that you may not immediately associate with chiropractic.

- Migraines
- TMJD
- Types of headaches: Tension/Cervical/Temporal/Sub occipital/Frontal/Crown/Sinus/Occular/Fluid/Pressure
- Swallowing and airway issues
- Mood/Energy
- Sinus Issues
- Digestion
- Fluid Circulation

Some of the complex stuff is comanaged with other providers.

Other chiropractors. Functional medicine Doctors. Nurse Practitioners. Physical therapists. Massage therapists. Counselors. Therapists. Dentists. Bodyworkers. Herbalists.

Collaboration over competition. Multiple likeminded people in your corner that all have your best interest at heart is what community is all about.

If you’re not seeing the results and are looking for a more unorthodox approach, maybe I can help.
