The Chiropractor's Wife
This is a blog about my learning curve on functional medicine and natural health, plus some of the enlightening (and slightly strange) adventures I've had with my chiropractor. Enjoy! -Shannon
Stone Mountain
The Chiropractor and I have made many trips to Stone Mountain, Georgia together, but more frequently I’ve gone up and down the mountainside solo. A couple of years ago I decided I wanted to do some training for an upcoming trip, too.
