September brings with it a vital reminder of the importance of recovery and the journeys of those who have battled addiction. This month – National Recovery Month – is a time to celebrate the remarkable achievements of individuals on their path to sobriety and to raise awareness about the various ways people can find healing and support. While we talk about this every year, if you’re new here you may be wondering what this has to do with chiropractic care and what we do here.

At On-The-Go Wellness®, we believe in promoting holistic wellness, and we’re proud to be part of the fight against addiction by helping avoid the need for potentially addictive medications whenever possible. Today, we’ll discuss the significant role chiropractic care can play in helping individuals avoid potentially addictive medications, provide resources for those struggling with addiction, and offer ways to get involved in the cause.

Hey there, awesome parents and caregivers gearing up for the back-to-school hustle! We all know this time of year is a whirlwind of backpack shopping, pencil hunting, and lunchbox packing. But hold on a sec, amidst the frenzy of school prep, are we remembering to teach our kiddos the ABCs of wellness? You know, the stuff that’ll keep them rocking not just in school, but in life? You can’t buy this one at Target, folks.

Welcome back! This blog is going to be a special one. I’d like to share our story, the story of On-The-Go Wellness®, our baby!

Our journey with On-The-Go Wellness® has been a remarkable one, driven by our deep-rooted vision to provide exceptional care to our patients. Yes, I know that sounds cliche, but I promise it isn’t. In fact, I firmly believe that our differentiating factor – the thing that sets us apart from other similar businesses – is that we truly CARE about our patients.

April is Stress Management Month, a time when we should all take a moment to reflect on the impact of stress on our daily lives. We’ve all got it, and unfortunately…probably lots of it. Whether it’s due to work, relationships, finances, or health, stress can have a significant impact on our physical and mental well-being.

The good news is, we can manage stress effectively by practicing self-care and adopting healthy coping mechanisms, which is what I want to talk about today!

This month we celebrated St. Patrick’s day. Once I donned my green clothes, I got to thinking about luck and the concept of “good luck”. This invisible force that theoretically has a 50/50 chance of being good or bad, right? Well, not always. Your health is one of the most important aspects of your life, yet it is often taken for granted. Many people believe that a large portion of their health is simply a matter of luck and genetics, and that they have little control over it. This couldn’t be further from the truth.

In reality, you have a *significant amount* of control over your health, and by taking control of it, you can significantly improve your overall quality of life and decrease the chances of many many conditions and ailments.

Occupational wellness is a crucial aspect of overall well-being, and it’s one of the eight dimensions of wellness (the last one in our series!). It refers to the satisfaction and fulfillment one feels in their job or career. The way we spend a significant portion of our day can have a significant impact on our happiness and overall health, and can be a huge portion of finding purpose and alignment with your values in your life. Or…it can be a big detractor from those things. In this blog, we’ll explore occupational wellness in more detail, including what it is, why it’s important, and how to achieve it.

This month we’re resuming with another installment in our series of blogs about the 8 Dimensions of Wellness. Environmental wellness is one of the eight and focuses on our surroundings, aka where we live, work, and play. Creating a supportive and healthy environment is essential to achieving success in all areas of life. Creating an environment that makes reaching your goals and living according to your personal values? That’s how you win at life!

In this blog, we’ll discuss how to structure your environment by making simple changes that can have a significant impact on your overall well-being.

Hello again, peeps! It’s the season of looove. So happy Valentines day/week to everyone who is celebrating. Now, not to be cheesy, BUT this does present a perfect opportunity to talk about a topic I believe is crucial for overall wellness; self-love. I KNOW it sounds…overdone at best and cringeworthy at worst. But this isn’t a blog about facemasks and affirmations. This is more of an exploration into the definition of self-love. What does it actually mean?

While I could sit here and talk about having a great time with that special someone, getting them a gift card (we do offer that for holidays or special occasions!) or being happily single, I rather talk about something with substance that will truly help you on your wellness journey.

Well – it’s official. January is over. We’ve made it through the first month of the year! I hope your year is off to a phenomenal start and your New Year’s Resolutions are going strong. Speaking of, I wanted to check in on those today and talk about one of my favorite topics (if you’ve been here a while, you’ve most definitely heard me talk about it before); behavior change! How to do it, what it means, and how to use it to meet your goals. Then, we’ll talk about how to make behavior change stick.

Heya, folks! Happy 2023, I hope it’s been nothing but sunshine and rainbows so far! I thought I’d kick off the new year by resuming our series from 2022 and talking about one of my favorite aspects of wellness; spiritual wellness- and WAIT, we’re not talking about religion. This blog post is applicable to all, not just those of us that believe in a higher power or practice religion. That’s right, read on.
