I love Stone Mountain (Georgia). If you’re not familiar with it, it’s a giant rock outcropping just east of Atlanta that kind of seems like the landing spot of a huge meteor millions of years ago. But it’s actually a huge “mountain” of granite that formed from within...

Fermentation is a little bit of a mystery to me. I really like most fermented foods (as long as they’re not too spicy) but I don’t quite get the science behind it. And something about the “mother” or “scoby” in the drinks still...

My 7 year-old nephew Ben is a big fan of his Uncle Brandt. He has been ever since we moved to the area almost 3 years ago. He once told his mom that when he grows up he wants to “crack bones and drink spinach smoothies” like The Chiropractor. (Just to clarify, let me...

The first time I went to a chiropractor (many years before I met Brandt), I was 23 and had been having chronic headaches. I took ibuprofen all the time. I’d also tried prescription muscle relaxers after they were suggested by a doctor. I’d just returned...
I'm a BYU music ed grad who went on to become a pediatric music therapist in Texas, where I met and married my chiropractor husband (with a whole lot happening in between). While I can barely differentiate between an occiput and a sacrum and really have no business being on a chiropractic website, I can tell you that everything you read here will be based on my real life experience of being married to Brandt. From endless discussions about gut health to encouragement to try barefoot running to his own fast lasting five days--it's a great, kind of weird, life--and one I wouldn't trade for anything.
