Episode #29: Neurofeedback and Brain Mapping with Dr. Allen Rudolph, DC
Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
Dr. Allen Rudolph, DC, has always been a "brain guy." Even while completing his chiropractic degree, he already knew that for his practice there would be more to the story than adjustments. Through Functional Neurology certification, he found his niche in Brain Mapping, Neurofeedback and brain rehabilitation therapy.
I continued to be "wowed" at the changes that can occur when we evaluate and treat the brain, for any assortment of "downstream" symptoms/conditions. I know you will be, too!

As science and functional medicine advance, we are learning more and more about the communication between the BIG brain (the one between your ears) and the little brain (the one living within and throughout your gastrointestinal tract). Ready to expand your thinking about which brain is in charge?? Tune in!
Dr. Chris Danduran, DC, DACNB, FACFN, CNS is a Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist and a Fellow of the American College of Functional Neurology. At his Fargo practice, NeuroLife Chiropractic & Functional Medicine Center, he is changing the way we consider, evaluate and treat neurological disorders (think dizziness, chronic nausea, overactive stress response, post concussion syndrome, chronic fatigue, etc.) and I, for one, am FASCINATED with the whole thing.

The human immune system, while always an important issue, moved from discussions generally isolated to the medicine/healthcare/research realm to being a topic of everyday conversation through the happenings of 2020. What does it mean to have a strong immune system? How do we, as a society, embrace what we've know about how the immune response works and put that information into practice?
In a time where we may feel like there is so much happening that is outside of our control, Dr. Steve Nagel of 180 Health Solutions in Mandan and I will highlight and emphasize the things that we generally can control (to a greater degree), like blood sugar stability via nutrition, supplementation, and other lifestyle elements, and the significant impact that this will have on the pursuit of strong immune systems.

Episode #26: Optimizing Fertility, Naturally! - with Dr. Terra Provost, ND
Wednesday Mar 17, 2021
Wednesday Mar 17, 2021
As delay in conception, subfertility and infertility become increasingly common concerns and conditions amongst couples, a growing body of research is supporting dietary, lifestyle and nutritional strategies to improve fertility outcomes (even right along WITH advanced reproductive medicine & procedures). As Naturopathic Doctors, both Dr. Terra Provost (of Crossroads Vitality Natural Health in Fargo) and I believe in the importance of evaluating and treating the whole person (both partners!), not just their reproductive bits.
Fertility is definitely one of my favorite things to talk about it and I SO enjoyed this great conversation with Dr. Terra. I hope you'll enjoy listening! Also, please forgive the occasional ringing phone and email notification... My editing software is on the fritz and I am not about to delay posting this episode long enough to figure it out. ;)

In our adult world today, it seems like being the MOST busy, the MOST burned out, the MOST overwhelmed is worn like a badge of honor. And, how does this play out in our kids and educational systems?
Difficulty self-regulating, attention concerns and anxiety can be multifaceted issues in children (we discuss some of these facets in detail) and through her life and work experience, Heidi has found that incorporating mindfulness techniques into our schools (at both the adult and child levels) holds immense potential for benefit. And, her big plans certainly don't stop at positively contributing to the educational system!
Please join Dr. Stephanie and Heidi Woods as we discuss the importance of community contribution, recognizing a need and filling it, mindfulness (including a short guided exercise towards the end... You'll love it!) and how much we all stand to gain when we take responsibility for the energy we bring into spaces throughout our days.

A Holistic Approach to Treating SIBO - with Dr. Lezlie Link, ND
Monday Jan 11, 2021
Monday Jan 11, 2021
SIBO, or small intestine bacterial overgrowth, has gained much ground over the past few years. SIBO is implicated as a potential cause of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and the symptoms associated with this condition are widely spread --> BLOATING, diarrhea or constipation, "brain fog," abdominal pains, indigestion and more.
In this episode, I get to discuss this condition (and much more) with Dr. Lezlie Link, a licensed Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine at Core Health Strategies in Bismarck, ND. Included in the discussion is the importance of a holistic approach to treatment- which may include prescription medications, herbal or nutritional supplements, tools to process/reprocess past trauma, addressing lifestyle and dietary challenges, abdominal massage or visceral adhesion therapy and more.
