Cough and congestion hitting your household?! Here are some natural remedies to stock up on to help your kiddos battling with this!

(yes, there are adult versions too 🤪)

The seasons are starting to change! 🍁 Have you noticed that there is more dark time now?!

With seasons changing, sniffle season is upon us. No matter how healthy we choose to live, everyone can fall victim to germs! 🦠

Here are some natural remedies to stock your medicine cabinent with for cough and congestion (as always, there are adult versions as well!).

However, even with these tools.. don't forget that sunshine 🌞, fresh air, exercise 🤸, and nourishing our bodies with whole foods/water have MAJOR benefits!

I know that this is probably a big pill to swallow for some, but it is so true.
Health is by choice, not by chance.
Now I know some will come at me for certain life events that led them to where they are now and that is VALID.
However, the choices you made after that impact you moving forward.
You can throw your hands up and wave the white flag or you can move forward with the best intentions. This is leader versus victim mentality.
Victims focus on what they CANNOT change, while leaders focus on what they CAN change.
You choose what to do with your health.
You choose what healthcare provider you see.
You choose what food you eat.
You choose what you drink.
You choose how much sleep you get.
You choose how much exercise you get.
You choose to not seek preventative healthcare.
You choose to not do anything about your health.
You choose to eat greasy junk food.
You choose to drink pop, sugar, alcohol.
You choose to stay up scrolling through social media.
You choose to binge watch Netflix rather than do any sort of physical activity.
Be a leader of your own health. -Dr. Lydia

Allergy season is upon us and boy is it hitting everyone hard! 🤧

Here are some additional natural remedies to help your little one who is struggling with allergies (and yes parents, they have adult versions of these supplements 😜).

Now, I don't want you to think this is going to be the cure! If we don't first address the root cause of the problem, it doesn't matter how much allergy supplements or even medications we take, the problem will still remain. 🚫

If we have restrictions within our cranium 🧠, this is not going to allow for proper movement of fluids. Cranial and sinus work is so beneficial to help reduce congestion 👃 and allow for it to flush properly without turning into an infection (or get the infection to drain!).

Don’t forget to schedule your next adjustment (or massage, or functional medicine appointment)! Call or text us at 515.278.2782.

Does this surprise any of you?! Because it definitely doesn’t surprise us! 🤩

The amount of stress placed on these athletes is beyond what most of us could ever imagine. This includes not only the physical side of it, but also mentally and emotionally. Chiropractic care for athletes is great for injury prevention, maximizing their performance potential, and improving recovery. So glad that top athletes around the world have accessibility to this kind of healthcare!

Meet Lilly. She is a college student that is looking to become a chiropractor in a few years. She has spent some time with our providers recently just getting a more behind the scenes view of what we do. She has seen everything from pediatric chiropractic care, to functional medicine, to crisis management work. Having someone looking at the profession reminds us all why we got into this to begin with. To make a difference in people’s lives in a positive way. One thing we covered was how it’s not just the physical adjustment or care you give them. It’s the mental/emotional “adjustment” they get when they come in IF you are focused on THEM and IF you are truly caring about THEM. It’s something they feel. It’s something that can and will change their day. This is something we talked about with Lilly and it was such a great reminder to all of us. Thanks Lilly!

Happy Friday from (some of) your Delta Health girlies!

We have lots of office gear but all the girls showed up wearing the same shirt today so of course a picture had to be taken.

IF ONLY Dr. Lydia Weir would’ve worn jeans too…

We had so much fun at the Urbandale parade this morning. We hope everyone has a happy 4th of July!

Cowboy Kelly the skelly is all ready for tomorrow. Don’t miss the Delta Health team in the Urbandale parade tomorrow!

Temps are getting higher so make sure to keep the water nearby to avoid dehydration headaches!

This is not the shortest video but it may be one of the more important ones we have shared. Please take the time to watch it. There is more and more evidence out there how this one thing is changing the lives or our children quickly and in a bad direction. The science is mounting and people are calling for change but it starts at home. Just going with the philosophy of "it's what everyone else is doing" is a dangerous path. We hear countless stories from our clients about the changes they see in their kids, themselves and their retirement-age parents. Please watch and start to get intentional with technology. Don't let it run you.

Why our PHONES are killing our kids’ lives.

Happy flag day!

Happy Monday, you’ve got this!
