## Resource

In this Season 2 episode of the Beyond Adjustments Podcast, host Amin Said sits down with Dr. Lee Matthis for a deep dive into an inside-out approach to chiropractic care rooted in listening, precision, and clinical wisdom. Dr. Lee discusses how practicing within the Intrinsic Wellness Collective model reshaped how he examines patients — with intent, patience, and a nervous-system focus — not just where he works. This thoughtful conversation walks through real clinical philosophy, decision-making around upper cervical precision care, shockwave and cold laser integration, spinal decompression discernment, and the discipline of restraint that defines mature healing work. 🌿 What You’ll Hear in This Episode What “intrinsic” means to clinical reasoning How to listen first — mechanical, neurological, emotional cues When care, capacity-building, or reassurance is the right path Precision choices: upper cervical, diversified, or full-spine care How shockwave & cold laser serve healing (not symptom chasing) Spinal decompression: selection, patience, expectations The power of restraint over more intervention One practical thing patients can start today One thing chiropractors should stop doing immediately This episode is ideal for patients seeking clarity beyond temporary relief and for clinicians ready to refine their approach with depth and intention. 📍 Connect with Intrinsic Wellness Collective Website: https://www.intrinsicwellnessva.com/ Phone: (434) 260-6463 — Call or Text Email: drmatthis@intrinsicwellnessva.com Location: 1110 Rose Hill Dr., Charlottesville, VA 22903 (Suite accessed from back of building) Intrinsic Wellness Collective offers chiropractic, upper cervical care, massage, acupuncture, shockwave therapy, cold laser therapy, and spinal decompression — all d…
