When I say that I understand what it’s like to battle a chronic health challenge, I mean it with every fibre of my being.

I know it, because that was my life for 10 years.

The endless doctors visits, practitioner appointments, blood tests, conflicting opinions, medication trials, supplement protocols, detoxes and diet recommendations.

Thousands of dollars spent trying to regain my quality of life.

Despite my best efforts, overwhelming brain fog, debilitating energy slumps and chronic digestive challenges were my life from age 18 to 28.

Then I got to a point 9 years into my healing journey when the penny finally dropped…

The more I threw at my healing, the worse it was making me feel…

A couple of weeks later I met my Husband and started Chiropractic care.

I had never been adjusted before and knew nothing about how Chiropractic care worked.

But I trusted him, and figured at that point I had nothing to lose.

So I followed his recommendations to the letter.

I stopped the truck load of supplements I was taking, paused the acupuncture appointments that were making me feel worse, and simply got adjusted three times per week.

Within weeks, everything started to change.

For the first time in 10 years my digestion came back online, my constant bloating dissipated, my food sensitivities settled and I became regular.

Then my energy started to lift.

I was waking feeling more refreshed than I had in years, and the brain fog that consumed my life, started to clear.

Month on month, life got better and better.

I was finally on the path to healing.

I couldn’t believe it.

After battling for so long, trying every healing modality known to man, the missing link was something that no other practitioner ever considered.

My nervous system.

Until I repaired my nervous system, all the well-intended therapies, protocols, supplements and healthy eating didn’t stand a chance.

And now I get to spend my days paying that lesson forward.

The nervous system is literally the foundation of our health, and when you restore the foundation first -

The most incredible things start to happen.

The missing link 🔗

Signs that you or your child may need nervous system repair from a Neurologically Focused Chiropractor, so the regulation tools can work:

❌ Therapies and interventions don’t provide lasting results
❌ Gut health protocols work temporarily, then plateau or regress
❌ Constant relapses or flare-ups after periods of improvement
❌ High reactivity to small triggers or minor stresses
❌ Low heart rate variability on wearable devices
❌ Quickly reverting back to a stressed state after calming activities
❌ Other interventions only provide temporary, surface-level relief

This year we went all in.. 🌏

We made a commitment to supporting families from all over the country.

And it has been more rewarding than we could possibly have imagined.

Being able to welcome families to the Gold Coast, take them through our incredible new patient process, give them hope, answers and a path to healing..

And then start to facilite powerful change within their body, is the greatest gift we could possibly give them.

God I’m proud of us 💕

This photo was taken back in 2019 when we made the bold decision to walk away from the successful practice we had built, the city we had lived in our entire lives, and all of our friends and family.

Being in Melbourne felt so out of alignment for us at the time, and deep down we knew there was a very big next chapter waiting for us somewhere else.

So we moved to the Gold Coast - a place where we knew nobody, had no jobs and no idea what we wanted to do next.

We were convinced it wasn’t another practice, so we resisted it for 12 months.

We tried working for another Chiropractor in their growing practice, but it left us feeling really empty.

We very quickly became aware of how big a gap there was here on the Gold Coast, between how Chiropractors were practicing and what patients truly needed.

Everyone seemed stuck in a mechanistic model of care, and a business model that lacked soul and any real purpose.

We knew that we had to step up, and be the change that the Gold Coast community needed.

So we started with a small space on the Gold Coast Highway, and despite knowing nobody - it grew fast.

People resonated deeply with our nervous system focused care and within 12 months, we were bursting at the seems.

So we did the thing we swore we would never do again, build a purpose built practice and go all in.

We pour our heart and soul into our practice and the people in it, every single day.

And we can honestly say that the community we have created, the impact we are making and the lives we get to transform on a daily basis, is beyond our wildest comprehension.

Most of the things that we see happen in our practice, we are not allowed to talk about on social media.

So all I can say is, this work, our mission, the world leading mentorship that we get access to as a PX Docs practice, and the ripple effect of lives that are being changed as a result, makes our heart so happy.

God I’m proud of us.

And so eternally grateful to the incredible families who place their entire trust in us to guide them back to health and healing.

We expect nothing short of miracles in because we get to see them happen every single day ✨💫

Before you buy another supplement or sign up for another detox program, let’s pause for a second…

We love that nervous system regulation is finally trending.

It’s a conversation that needs to be happening in every single Doctors office, because the nervous system truly is the foundation of everything.

But here’s what most people (and even most practitioners) don’t fully understand…

You can’t regulate a nervous system that needs to be repaired, first.

It’s the reason so many families come to us saying:

“I’ve tried everything - supplements, detoxes, therapies and diet changes, but nothing is changing.”

The reality is, when the nervous system is stuck in a chronically stressed (fight/flight) pattern, it doesn’t matter how many “health practices” you try:

Your body is too overwhelmed to integrate them.

It’s prioritising survival, so it simply cannot facilitate healing.

At This Is Life we take nervous system health really seriously.

We don’t guess what your body needs, we test, track and measure.

Through our Neurological INSiGHT Scans, we can see exactly how your nervous system is functioning, where it’s compromised and what the order of priority is for your care, throughout every stage in your healing journey.

Because when the foundation is restored, the rest slowly starts to fall into place.

A nervous system stuck in survival mode has to steal energy from somewhere to stay there

Think:

Chronic Digestive Issues
Sensory Processing Challenges
Constant Fidgeting
Inability to Focus
Chronic Sleep Disturbances
Immune System Challenges

Healing cannot happen when the nervous system is stuck in fight or flight mode.

Neurologically Focused Chiropractors dig deep into the inner workings of your child’s nervous system, to identify where the over-activation is coming from.

We test, measure and track exactly what is happening within your child’s nervous system using state of the art INSiGHT scans, so we can tailor a care plan that meets their specific needs.

The diagnosis can be helpful 🤔

BUT it doesn’t define your child.

Medication can be helpful

BUT let’s try not to make it a forever band aid!

The nervous system controls every other system in the entire body.

So it makes sense to check there first, to ensure brain to body communication isn’t compromised.

So your child has the best possible chance to start regulating and adapting naturally again.
