What if feeling better isn't just about finding the right supplement, hormone, or treatment, but also learning to listen to your body in a completely different way?
In this episode of The Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Dr. Mary Sanders, a chiropractor and energy medicine practitioner, to explore the connection between the body, the nervous system, emotional experiences, and personal transformation.
Mary shares how being born hearing-impaired shaped her sensitivity to her surroundings and influenced her path into chiropractic care and energy medicine. Together, she and Jannine discuss emotional releases during bodywork, how past experiences may influence the way we respond to stress, and why women over 40 may find themselves questioning their identity, purpose, and what comes next.
They also explore Mary's use of stroboscopic light, vibroacoustic therapy, and other approaches intended to support relaxation and nervous system regulation. The conversation highlights the importance of creating space to slow down, tune into your body's signals, and explore what you may need as you move through life's transitions.
If you've been doing all the things to support your health but still feel like something is missing, this conversation invites you to get curious about your body's needs and consider new perspectives on your well-being.
