The health world is rapidly changing, and I know how confusing it can get, so I hope my personal update offers some encouragement if you're in the weeds of healing something yourself. Key Highlights: ➡️ How my back injury actually happened unexpectedly. ➡️ Why I decided to ski despite the pain. ➡️ The tools I used to manage pain during my trip. ➡️ My experience with chiropractic care and dry needling. ➡️ How hyperbaric therapy and meditation are aiding my recovery. ➡️ The peptide protocol and supplements supporting my healing.
