How often should you get adjusted—once a month, every week, or only when something hurts? In this episode, we explore what the research says about the ideal timing between chiropractic adjustments. You'll learn why the right frequency depends on your care goals—whether it's pain relief, postural correction, or long-term maintenance. We also break down key studies showing that spinal degeneration can begin after just 10–14 days of immobility, and that regular maintenance care leads to better long-term outcomes. Whether you're new to chiropractic or wondering when to come back, this episode will help you find the right rhythm to keep your spine—and your life—functioning at its best.

Matt and Allie present this month's clinical corner article that basically supports the whole theme of our podcast! Matt introduces the research report that tested the pathway of using direct access in visiting a PT first in comparison to the physician pathway alone. The study covered 66 children/adolescents presenting with muscle pain and split them into groups to compare the results. The patients who used their direct access showed higher rates of retention and compliance in their care! Read the article here: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13321Did you know that you don't need a doctor's prescription to receive physical therapy?

You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going. Today, we're focusing on an often-overlooked peptide called VIP, short for Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide. The name might sound technical, but this peptide plays some important roles in the body. It helps regulate inflammation, supports nerve function, improves blood flow by relaxing blood vessels, and may even have benefits for things like chronic pain, including back pain. Let's get into it. What is VIP? We've talked about VIP before on a previous podcast, but it's been awhile and I'd like to start with the basics as a refresher.  VIP is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide that acts like a signaling molecule in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Think of it like a chemical messenger that can influence a lot of different body systems. VIP belongs to the glucagon/secretin peptide superfamily, and it's found throughout the body, including your brain, intestines, lungs, and immune cells. Now, what does VIP actually do? Well it does quite a bit. VIP works by binding to specific receptors on cells—called VPAC1 and VPAC2—which trigger a chain reaction inside the body through something known as the cyclic AMP pathway. Once activated:  It relaxes smooth muscles, which helps open up blood vessels (vasodilation) and airways (bronchodilation) It stimulates secretion of water and electrolytes in places like the gut and pancreas—so yes, it helps with digestion too It's a major immune modulator, calming inflammation by regulating immune cell behavior  Neuroprotective role, supporting the survival and adaptability of neurons VIP in Medicine – What's the Buzz? VIP has been studied in a variety of conditions. Inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's Neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Autoimmune diseases like osteoarthritis Respiratory conditions like pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or due to mold toxicity But today, we're zooming in on something more tangible for a lot of people—back pain. VIP and Back Pain – What Do We Know? Let's get into the science here. VIP has recently caught attention for its potential role in intervertebral disc degeneration, which is one of the top causes of chronic low back pain. A 2024 study found that VIP receptors were significantly reduced in degenerated human discs—which is kind of a red flag. When VIP was given to mice for four weeks, researchers saw slowed degeneration, better structural proteins like aggrecan, and overall healthier discs on imaging. Promising, right? But here's the catch—this was a preclinical animal study. We still need human trials to confirm it works outside the lab. VIP and Joint Pain And when it comes to VIP and joint pain, there's a bit more research on VIP and osteoarthritis, especially when the spine is involved. In OA models, VIP was shown to lower pro-inflammatory cytokines—those molecules that contribute to pain and make joints hurt. But here's where it gets complicated: some studies report that VIP accumulation in joints might actually worsen pain. So... it's a bit of a paradox. So what's the takeaway? VIP can be helpful—but its role in pain management seems to depend on how much, where, and what kind of pain we're talking about. VIP in Peptide Therapy – Real-World Use? In peptide clinics—especially those using integrative or regenerative medicine approaches—VIP is sometimes part of treatment protocols for nerve-related pain and inflammation. It's often paired with other peptides like BPC-157 and TB-500. You can find some clinics that list VIP as a go-to for chronic pain, including back pain. But here's the reality check, clinical data is limited, success is anecdotal, it's pricey and results can vary from person to person. So while VIP might help reduce inflammation and slow tissue degeneration, it's not a substitute for tried-and-true pain management peptides like BPC-157.

What can I say about today's guest? If you're working with postnatal women or female athletes, then Grainne Donnelly will be a familiar name to you. One of the busiest and most productive people in women's health - Grainne is a clinician, PhD researcher, educator, writer, editor of the POGP journal, business owner and mother of four!In today's chat, we discussed lots of different topics under the postnatal umbrella, from diastasis to sport & exercise to compression garments and the importance of functional and clinically relevant research, with a nod to evolutionary development of the pelvic floor!At Pelvicon last year, we got a glimpse into her PhD research looking at compression garments and the pelvic floor, so we get into the weeds with this today: compression garments - do they work? What should we consider when it comes to recommending them? Are they good for everyone?Grainne, along with Emma Brockwell & Tom Goom, completely changed the conversation with the Return to Running Guidelines in 2019; the 6R Framework on Returning to Sport Postnatally (BJSM 2021), her chapter on pelvic health in sports medicine, her 2025 paper on rugby & pelvic health - you can find all of her recent publications hereI'm a huge GD fan - it really is hard to think of someone who has done more to advance the evidence base for postnatal recovery from a physio perspective, so if you get the chance to learn from her - grab it!Grainne's online courses are available at absolute.physio and they are on sale for the summer - you can find her on instagram as @absolute.physio and she will be teaching a precon at Pelvicon about real time ultrasound in pelvic rehab and of course, the book she's editing on Pelvic Health in Sports Medicine will be out in April 2026Want to take a deeper dive into women's health, from the comfort of home, and at your own pace?

The human body has traits that evolved at different times, from 1.5 billion to 2 million years ago, each bringing health benefits and risks. Multicellularity enabled organs and cancer. The immune system defends us but can cause inflammation. Breastfeeding supports infant health but relates to breast cancer risk. Menstruation and invasive placentas improved reproduction but led to pain and cancer risks. Human-specific traits like bipedalism and aging brought new issues like back pain and childbirth problems. Hair loss and sweat glands helped us stay cool but increased skin cancer risk. Our hunter-gatherer past shaped our microbiome and health, but also made us prone to modern diseases from lifestyle changes.

When symptoms move through me, the first place I want to discuss it is here on this podcast. This week I have had some pain, and my JournalSpeak revealed some interesting patterns in my life that it may be time to challenge. I have always had an innate desire to control things, people, situations... am I alone? When I am unable to do so, sometimes my body clocks the danger. Yet, when I reflect on these impulses, I have to admit - I'm not so sure if they are "working." Today I invite you into my heart and mind. Hopefully my insights will shed some light on your own stuck places. Sending big love! xoxo n.

Do you always feel tight—and just assume it's your job, your posture, or your age? A lot of people live with neck tension, stiff hamstrings, or an achy back and just accept it as normal. They figure it's because they sit too much, work too hard, or are just getting older. But in this episode, Dr. Bart explains why that might not be the full story. Chronic tightness isn't just a muscle issue—it's often your body reacting to stress, poor posture, and nervous system overload. Stretching might help short term, but if the tension keeps coming back, there's likely something deeper going on. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why your body holds on to tightness (even if you stretch or exercise) What stress, inflammation, and sitting all day really do to your system Why deep massages and aggressive stretching don't always work How this all connects to your long-term health and mobility What you can start doing now to help your body loosen up and feel safe again This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, tense, or just tired of trying everything with no results. It might shift the way you think about pain—and give you a new path forward.

After 20 years of living with degenerative disc disease, 13 surgeries, and waking up in pain most mornings, I reveal the raw truth about what it's really like to navigate chronic pain while trying to maintain an active, vibrant life. From the day my leg stopped working completely to the upcoming surgery that could change everything, this deeply personal episode exposes the strategies that actually work—and the ones that don't. Discover why that persistent hip pain might actually be your spine crying for help, the three pillars that kept me moving for years when traditional approaches failed, and the shocking reality about what happens when your spine starts "auto-fusing" without your permission.  I also reveal my plans for a specialized mobile disc replacement surgery in July. This episode is packed with practical advice for anyone dealing with similar issues, from movement and diet tips to the latest in surgical options. If you're one of the 40% of midlife women dealing with back pain, or if you've ever felt like your body has completely turned against you, this episode will change how you think about pain, healing, and what's possible in the second half of life.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Free Gifts for being a listener of Midlife Conversations!
