Hey mamas! What is one thing you wish you would have known about pregnancy, labor, delivery, or motherhood before you went through it?!
Reason number 7384297 why I love dogs + babies: they are present in the moment, just enjoying what’s in front/on top of them✨🤎
Patient: “My neck/back/shoulder/hip hurts, and I don’t know why!”
Them on the couch the day before: slouching, squished between pets, kinda like Ray in this picture😂
Here’s the deal... your posture doesn’t need to be perfect. In fact, I’m of this opinion that there is no perfect static posture.
Why? Because your body was made to move!! Just minor shifts in how you’re sitting or standing, or quick breaks for an exercise or stretch can help minimize stress on your body and nervous system!
Reactions post-adjustment may include:
-laughing
-crying
-swearing
-farting (always funny for both parties, as it’s pretty hard to offend a mama of 5 fur babies and a one-year-old with anything related to poop or toots)
-jumping off the table to yell “yee-haw!” (yes, it’s happened 🤠)
And, most importantly,
✨FEELING BETTER✨
Real talk: Getting adjusted can make us feel vulnerable. I’m so honored to create + hold a space where whatever comes up is okay, a space where you can be unapologetically you.
What happens when you’re adjusted?! Let’s hear from you!👇🏿👇🏾👇🏼
Dear patients,

Thank you for trusting in me + Couve Chiropractic. Thank you for expanding my heart in ways I don’t have words for.

Found the best little pumpkin in the whole patch🧡
A year ago, our family would not have been able to head to the pumpkin patch together midweek. But over the last 6 months, working for myself, being the boss of my own schedule, and carving out time to just be with my boys + our pups has been incredible.🎃
What are you feeling thankful for this year as the seasons change?🍂

Happy World Spine Day!!💀
My “Move with Couve” challenge for you today is to find an everyday activity that you can turn into a spine stabilizing exercise.
What do I mean by this? How about maintain neutral pelvis while brushing your teeth? Could you carry your groceries with a farmer’s walk? Work on belly breathing while nursing or holding your little one?
Have no idea what I mean by all this? Not to worry!
Couve Chiropractic’s YouTube channel is launching soon!! ✨✨✨ We’ll have exercises, wisdom, and real talk about pregnancy, postpartum and whole-person wellness coming your way soon!
PS check out Ray’s form (and strength!) while he performs a farmer’s walk with pumpkins in hand.🧡

There are a lot of similarities between raising a little human + raising a business:
They are messy... Messy spills. Messy diapers. Messy buns. Messy emotions.
They are hard work. On the outside. On the inside. And everywhere in between.
They beautiful + chaotic + overwhelming + the most rewarding ventures I’ve undertaken. Both make me better at the other.
They have introduced me to other amazing women doing amazing things.
🖤To the mamas balancing your own self care while caring for your family or business, I see you.
🧡To the mamas juggling work from home, school at home, and life at home, I see you.
🖤To the mamas keeping your $h!t together in 2020 (or no longer giving a $h!t about keeping it all together), I see you.
Your health is in your hands.✨🌙⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What healthy choices will you be making this week?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Red lips for #wearredday 🫀❤️💋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
because stroke and heart disease claim the lives of 1 in 3 women⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
because I battled preeclampsia during my own pregnancy, and its complications nearly took my life⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
because 80% of these deaths are preventable according to the American Heart Association⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
because risk factors for heart disease are different for our bodies (for example, stress and depression affect women's hearts more than they do men's)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
because when a woman is having a heart attack, she is more likely than a man to have signs and symptoms that aren't chest pain, that are more vague, and that are not as noticeable⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
because lower estrogen levels after menopause put a woman at higher risk for disease in her blood vessels⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Should I see a chiropractor after I've been in a car accident?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After an accident or injury of any kind, it is a common assumption that pain and dysfunction will go away on their own. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Even before or without symptoms like pain, tension, or discomfort, your body may have begun to compromise its structure and function.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A chiropractor can help you determine the root cause of any symptoms and provide appropriate treatment options (and referral to other providers like massage therapists, physical therapists, and primary care providers if necessary).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our goal is always to help you live in your body with more ease, comfort, and awareness. Because your body should always feel like home.✨
This one is for all you parents, raising babies during a global pandemic. You are super heroes.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The pelvis.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your baby’s first crib.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A source of low back pain.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A structure that helps support and protect you.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The home of your feminine/ creative energy system.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A part of you that has evolved over the last 4-6 million years to allow you to stand and walk upright.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What does your pelvis mean to you?👇🏿👇🏽👇🏻
