Halloween is fun and all, but don’t let your spine and nervous system get too spooky, or else your health will scare the sh*t out of you.
1. Ghosting your Charleston chiropractor
Ummmmmmm, Did you get bitten by a Vampire? Did you get possessed by a demon? OR, did you just simply overlook 2 texts and 3 emails, and your calendar notification? I’m not sure what is scarier, missing all of the reminders or having to pay for a service you didn’t even get to receive. That’s spooky af. ****(Please see our late cancellation and no show penalties below.)
2. Sitting in poor posture for hours on end, leaving work, drinking a few mixed drinks.
Then, you come to your chiropractic appointment saying, “ I don’t know what I did.” You know what you did. SPOOOOoooooOKY.
3. Not getting enough sleep on a regular basis.
Late night is when the werewolves come out.
4. Passing subluxations down the family line because you don’t get your children checked and adjusted.
Just like heart disease might run in the family, so do subluxations. The curse can stop with you and your children by bringing them to a pediatric chiropractor. About 90% of babies get subluxated at birth even if they're born in the comforts of home. Leave those subluxations to fester and they’ll probably turn into Uncle Fester…. at age 15. Yikes.
5. Negative talk to yourself and to others.
What comes out of your mouth, comes into your life, so if you’re always talking about your back pain, your plantar fasciitis, your hip bursitis, and your migraines, then you’re just attracting more back pain, more plantar fasciitis, more hip bursitis, and more migraines. BEWARE of identifying with your symptoms unless you want them to continue to haunt you. The body talks. It’s up to you to listen and make change with patience, love and grace. Dwell on the positives and little wins. Don’t haunt yourself with negative talk. Be your biggest supporter.
6. Excss screen time especially within a couple of hours of bedtime.
This is zombie activity.
7. Consuming toxic foods. This includes Halloween candyyyyyyy and cocktails.
Your gut and your nervous system have to process this quietly until it can’t be quiet anymore and has to screeeeeeeeeam.
8. Consuming toxic information.
Your nervous system has to process this and oftentimes the density of negative information haunts you physically, emotionally, and energetically like you’re dragging around a dark entity that's draining your life force. NO thank you! I’m a chiropractor and reiki provider, not an exorcist.
9. Buying toxic products and willingly putting them on your skin, in your hair, or in your environment.
It’s not that scary to buy clean makeup, body products, home products, and natural essential oils. Start with one thing and switch out everything else as you run out of the products you need and read labels before you buy. Ask me about Crunchi Cosmetics and Doterra Essential oils. Download the app, Bobby Approved.
10. Taking chiropractic advice from people or doctors that aren’t chiropractors.
That’s creepy clown behavior.
11. Taking health advice from people that are in poor health.
That’s psycho killer behavior.
12. Vaping, smoking cigarettes, smoking weed excessively without a purpose
Sure, deprive your cells of pure oxygen and in exchange for tar. The inflammation ghouls will take over your joints and make you feel like you’ve been mummified.
13. Drinking tap water.
If you want forever-chemicals to haunt your nervous system, spine and cells forever, then keep on drinking on. If you would like more information on what’s in your tap water, go to this link and put in your zip code. Then reach out to Pureway Water Filtration or ask me for more information at your next appointment.
14. Waiting until you feel a symptom before you make a chiropractic appointment.
Waiting until symptoms rise from the coffin is like waiting for you to gain 50 lbs before you hit the gym…But then you finally do go to the gym… once. And then finally go on a diet…for one day. You have many more gym sessions and days of healthy eating before you simply get back to your baseline homie. Same goes for your symptoms, your spine, and your nervous system.
15. Taking medications without an end game.
It’s easier to get prescribed a pill and swallow it everyday, but Pharma doesn’t heal you, they profit from your dependency and your suffering. Big pharma loves zombies and they are marketing monsters!
This week of Halloween, be smart, have fun, and don’t slash yourself if you have some of those spooky habits listed above. This is your warning!!! Bwahahahahahaaaaaaaa.
It’s never too late to change and as your chiropractor and reiki provider, spooky spines turn happy here if you’ve made the decision to change. Change starts with your mind and more often then not, it's more about removing what doesn’t serve you, rather than adding more.
Thanks for reading and Happy Halloween!
