Welcome to Pints ​​& Pelvic Floors: The Podcast. In Episode 38 I sat down with Dr. D of Thrive Chiropractic to chat about how she got started in the chiro world and what led her to create her home here in Baltimore.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Dr. D’s journey from working in nonprofits to moving to Georgia for chiropractic school
  • How receiving chiropractic care was a vital part of Dr. D’s care team while navigating life as a gay women during the era of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell
  • The lead up to opening Thrive Chiropractics in 2014 and how private practice allows Dr. D the flexibility to treat her patients in the way she feels is best (we’re looking at your new parents with little one’s who need adjustments - babies don’t always mold to our schedule!)
  • Treatment techniques like: Polyvagal Theory & Webster technique
  • How frequency of care allows our joints, muscles, and nervous system the ability to make and hold change
  • The accessibility of chiropractic care in terms of finances, time, and treatment options
  • How chiro is WAY more than neck/back pain and popping joints - if you worry that is all they will do, communicate your boundaries with your provider!
