Benefits of Chiropractic Cranial Work for Infants with Dr. Barb Gettel

by

Why do babies need a chiropractor? What is cranial work in terms of chiropractic and how is it different from the adjustment? How is it different from Craniosacral? What are indicators that parents can look for suggesting their child should see a pediatric chiropractor? Doctors Barb and Steph with their combined 40 years of experience discuss all of these details and more on this episode of Families Seeking Wellness.

Meet Dr. Barb:

I am a graduate of Northwestern College of Chiropractic. After graduating, I have continued my education with a focus in Cranial/TMJ work and organ adjustments as well as spinal adjustments.

I have always been amazed at the body’s natural ability to heal itself and love to educate my patients back into health. It has been my experience that if areas of the body can be supported through adjustments and proper nutrition; optimal health can be maintained and poor health can be improved. In many cases drugs can be avoided.

I have almost 400 hours of Continuing Education credits on Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT).

When not working, I am an active member in the profession and also enjoy spending time with my husband Dan and my sons Daniel and Andrew.

Energy Medicine to Uncover the Power Within with Beth Lynch, EEM-CLP, APN, RN

by

How do you get your body and mind to work together? Your body reflects your energies, your energies reflect your body! Your body gives us messages about how to be well. 

Beth Lynch’s BIO:

My journey as a healer began in the nursing field. I’ve always been drawn to caring for the whole person, recognizing that we are physical, mental, emotional and spiritual beings with important needs on each level. Holistic approaches are largely not recognized in Western medicine, but I found the model of hospice to have similar values. So for many years, I cared for cancer, palliative care and hospice patients—and it was fulfilling. I was able to gracefully honor each person exactly how they were in the moment and allow them to feel their own sense of dignity.

I still, however, felt there was something more I could offer as a healer.

While I was a caregiver and nurturer for others, I hadn’t always been the best at taking care of myself. I met an Eden Energy Medicine Practitioner at a local event and decided to book a session. I resonated deeply with the way she held the space of healing for me first, so that I could step into the space of healing for myself. I wasn’t judged and nothing felt forced. The practitioner simply focused on my needs and worked with my body’s energy systems.

As I continued to explore energy medicine, my life began to radically shift. I experienced a sense of vitality that I hadn’t known before. For the first time, I learned how to truly care for myself. I knew that I wanted to share energy medicine with others to empower them on their own journey to heal, evolve and optimize their wellness.

I studied Eden Energy Medicine (under Donna Eden and her experienced faculty) for 3 years to become a clinical practitioner. I whole-heartedly believe that it is one of the quickest, easiest and safest ways to reconnect with the body’s needs and effect positive change—physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Most traditions work with just one system. Eden Energy Medicine is special because it utilizes 9 energetic systems, wrapped up into one highly effective healing modality.

What I enjoy most about working with clients is that I can hold the space of complete acceptance of their states of being. The world doesn’t need any more judgement. I want clients to understand that energy is just energy—there is no right or wrong. We identify areas that are flowing well and areas that need support, and realize that it’s all part of their individual soul’s journey.

Women Stress and Eating – Putting Yourself FIRST! with Claudia Braun

by

Teaching women to feel empowered with their body and food. The answers are within you

to reprioritize themselves so they can choose to be happy! 

 

BIO:

 

As a holistic health coach, my passion is supporting my clients, to heal their relationships with eating, food and their body. To learn to reprioritize themselves, and step into themselves in a bigger way. 

 

There’s a lot of frustration women feel at knowing what do but not quite being able to do it, and some of my clients are not sure what to do to get results.  I’m the guide, I work lovingly, supporting, inspiring, and creating a judgement free experience, challenging them to reach their goals! Which get set in the beginning of our work together. 

 

My mission & philosophy: With incremental changes one can create a life time of change. I believe eating well (and living well!) is about changing your lifestyle—not dieting. When you have a confident, compassionate relationship with your body, everything that follows, is positive and healing.

 

As a health Coach, and educator I focus on a holistic approach. Including working with one’s mindset, because one’s thinking effects their emotional and physical body. 

 

I’ve a background in Yoga, teaching since 2001, and about 30 years of a personal practice, as well as aromatherapy. I’ve a passion for the power of scent and how essential oils enhance ones well-being. I enjoy teaching others how to use Essential Oils to experience greater harmony in their busy life. 

 

Plus my time in social work school and my personal spiritual practice aid my ability to provide a safe non-judgmental, nurturing space.

Structural Solutions for Scoliosis with Dr. Paul Fisher

by

Discussion of what to do and how to diagnose this often ignored pediatric spinal issue.

Bio:

Dr. Fisher has undergone extensive Post-Graduate training in whiplash injuries, headaches, posture analysis, pregnancy, neck pain, shoulder pain, low back treatment and digital motion x-ray. He is certified in Chiropractic Biophysics and Whiplash Biomechanics. He has undertaken extensive studies in ligament injuries (the primary cause of chronic spinal pain) and has two studies pending publication.

It’s not often that you find a healthcare provider that shares your passion for what’s possible when it comes to your health. But at Gold Coast Chiropractic, we know that better health—and feeling your best—can and should be within everyone’s reach. That’s why we don’t settle for traditional treatments or conventional approaches that often limit health outcomes by focusing solely on pain management or symptom relief rather than identifying and resolving the root cause of specific health issues.

Dr. Fisher is originally from Okoboji, IA. He attended Iowa State University, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in MIS and a Minor in Chemistry. Upon graduation he moved to Lombard, IL to attend National University of Health Sciences. While there, he was awarded both a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Biology and a Doctor of Chiropractic. Dr. Fisher was also student body Vice-President and member of the executive board member of Student American Chiropractic Association. He also received a Master’s of Science in Nutrition from Bridgeport University.

Prior to graduation, Dr. Fisher was selected to participate in the Department of Defense internship at National Naval Medical Hospital in Bethesda, MD. While an intern there, he performed weekly rotations in other departments including: Neurosurgery, Pain Management, Orthopedic Surgery, Radiology, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Oral Facial Pain Clinic. He then started Fisher Chiropractic and Integrative Health in Hinsdale, IL, which he ran with a partner until July of 2013.  Dr. Fisher has been at Gold Coast Chiropractic since August 2013.

He is a member of Chiropractic Biophysics Non-Profit, Academy of Chiropractic, the Illinois Chiropractic Society, and the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association.
