Episode 36: Chiropractors Meets Functional Medicine with Dr Liz Santangelo

Joy Noble • April 16, 2024

Welcome to Pints ​​& Pelvic Floors: The Podcast. In Episode 36 I had the opportunity to chat with Dr Liz Santangelo of Santangelo Family Chiropractic about chiropractors and her recent clinic addition of Functional Medicine.

During this episode Dr Liz & I talked about:

  • Her start in the chiro world (& how she had her first adjustment when she was just a few minutes old)
  • The impact of chiropractic care on the nervous system and how chiro is way more than popping spines
  • Each patient’s care should be specific to their needs - not every patient needs the same adjustments as everyone else (or even as the previous session)
  • Dr Liz’s ideal patient: females between 20-40 years, especially for pre/postnatal care
  • Infant adjustments are not the same as adult adjustments!
  • The 3 T’s that impact subluxations: thoughts (mental/emotional stresses), traumas (physical impacts to the body), toxins (chemicals and what we put into/onto our body)
  • The functional medicine lens that looks at more of the chemical toxins in the body which allows Dr Liz to address another ‘T’ that impacts subluxations
