369: Tackling Nutrition
BrainStim
A recent study that followed 25-44 year olds from 2010-2020 showed there was a 121% increase in heart failure over previous rates in that same age cohort. You know our favorite question around here is WHY? What could possibly have caused such a dramatic increase in a population that shouldn't be concerned with heart failure, which is traditionally thought of as a condition elderly people have to contend with? So we're diving in today to the topic to see what we can discern from those results - and what we can do to protect those who might be at an increased risk. As always, more info can...

368: The Art of Recovery II
BrainStim
Last week's discussion raised so many questions and piqued so many people's interest that we decided we'd better do a follow up! It appears that recovery is a bit of a strange concept for many. Is it just "rest"? Or is it more than that? Most spend 80% engaged and 20% recovery - when we really should have those two functions reversed. Your Autonomic vs Sympathetic Nervous System function is crucial for that recovery process, but we often don't even know how to help our systems function well. Take a listen to the BrainStim gang as they continue the very important discussion around...

But the piece that often gets missed is the equally important recovery from the doing. As a whole, we've lost the balance of doing and resting - working from our rest and resting from our work. The BrainStim gang is diving into this very crucial part of health that often gets overlooked. More info can be found at

364: Concussion Season
BrainStim
It's everyone's favorite time of year - FOOTBALL SEASON!! But as much fun as it is to watch your favorite team on the gridiron, the very unfortunate reality is with every football season comes concussion season. Are concussions a big deal? It seems like every game from middle school to pros has at least one player that "gets his bell rung" - and players tend to shrug it off and jump back in the game. But are there lasting impacts left from concussions? And if so, is there anything we could - or should - do about it? The BrainStim Gang is looking through their neurologically-based lens in...

361: mRNA Flu Vax & Vitamin D
BrainStim
These days there is no shortage of companies and organizations telling you exactly how to "protect" yourself from whatever the virus du jour is today. Unfortunately, many of those methods of protection come with a slew of long-term side effects that are often worse than the thing you're trying to combat. What's more incredible is that our body already comes with a built-in protection system - your immune system! But, so many Americans suffer from low or sub-par functioning immune systems. Why is that? Well, as you probably imagine, there are a host of reasons and we're going to delve...

360: Models
BrainStim
What is HEALTHcare? Caring for your health begins with YOU - not your doctor, not the pharmacy. When you grocery shop, that's healthcare. When you choose the products that go on your skin, that's healthcare. When you exercise your body regularly, that's healthcare. We have two models of healthcare, one is designed to actually boost your innate health, while the other is more focused on treating sickness. There's a place for both - but we need to recognize that we're not going to get real health by utilizing the illness care system. They're designed for different outcomes, so you...
info_outlineIn this episode of the BrainStim Podcast, the BrainStim gang explores various "obvious absurdities" in modern healthcare - contradictions and illogical practices that have become normalized despite defying common sense.
If you think covering up a check engine light with duct tape "fixes" the problem, you might be on board with how western healthcare approaches and treats symptoms, rather than addressing root causes.
As a neurologically based chiropractor, we're all about addressing root causes and healing from the inside out. Take a listen and see how many of the absurdities you've bought in to - or have eliminated from your life!
