370: The Cost of Fragmented Food

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

It's no secret that what is considered food in our country is pretty abysmal. What we call food would hardly be recognizable by our ancestors. We're discussing different aspects of the food industry today: how did we get here and what can we do about it? Is it really that big of a deal?

When the majority of chronic illnesses facing Americans today are food-driven, we assert that it's perhaps the biggest deal in health. Take a listen to the BrainStim gang as they discuss the current situation of our food and more importantly, what we can do to make a positive nutritional impact.

369: Tackling Nutrition

Fri, 16 Oct 2026 11:41:00 +0000

A recent study that followed 25-44 year olds from 2010-2020 showed there was a 121% increase in heart failure over previous rates in that same age cohort. You know our favorite question around here is WHY? What could possibly have caused such a dramatic increase in a population that shouldn't be concerned with heart failure, which is traditionally thought of as a condition elderly people have to contend with?

So we're diving in today to the topic to see what we can discern from those results - and what we can do to protect those who might be at an increased risk.

368: The Art of Recovery II

Fri, 09 Oct 2026 12:22:00 +0000

Last week's discussion raised so many questions and piqued so many people's interest that we decided we'd better do a follow up!

It appears that recovery is a bit of a strange concept for many. Is it just "rest"? Or is it more than that? Most spend 80% engaged and 20% recovery - when we really should have those two functions reversed. Your Autonomic vs Sympathetic Nervous System function is crucial for that recovery process, but we often don't even know how to help our systems function well.

Take a listen to the BrainStim gang as they continue the very important discussion around recovery.

367: The Art of Recovery

Fri, 02 Oct 2026 12:14:00 +0000

We get it - we're even guilty of it at times too. We think so much of our health is about "doing" - and that's not necessarily wrong. But the piece that often gets missed is the equally important recovery from the doing. As a whole, we've lost the balance of doing and resting - working from our rest and resting from our work.

The BrainStim gang is diving into this very crucial part of health that often gets overlooked.

364: Concussion Season

Fri, 04 Sep 2026 13:41:00 +0000

It's everyone's favorite time of year - FOOTBALL SEASON!! But as much fun as it is to watch your favorite team on the gridiron, the very unfortunate reality is with every football season comes concussion season.

Are concussions a big deal? It seems like every game from middle school to pros has at least one player that "gets his bell rung" - and players tend to shrug it off and jump back in the game. But are there lasting impacts left from concussions? And if so, is there anything we could - or should - do about it?

The BrainStim Gang is looking through their neurologically-based lens in today's episode as they explore the world of concussions.

363: Back To School - Again!

Fri, 28 Aug 2026 12:31:00 +0000

Well, here we are again - back to school time! While everyone is focused on getting the necessary supplies and perfect back to school outfits, are we missing the most important thing we should be focusing on when it comes to being prepared for back to school?

362: Dementia

Fri, 14 Aug 2026 15:55:00 +0000

Dementia has become such an incredibly common outcome for so many Americans that it has sadly almost become a "when" you get it - not an "if" any longer. Is there anything we can do about it? If you've been listening to the BrainStim podcast for very long, we think you know the answer to that!

In today's episode, we're discussing types of dementia and some of the causes as well as the solutions to both prevention and recovery.

361: mRNA Flu Vax & Vitamin D

Fri, 07 Aug 2026 18:47:00 +0000

These days there is no shortage of companies and organizations telling you exactly how to "protect" yourself from whatever the virus du jour is today. Unfortunately, many of those methods of protection come with a slew of long-term side effects that are often worse than the thing you're trying to combat.

What's more incredible is that our body already comes with a built-in protection system - your immune system! But, so many Americans suffer from low or sub-par functioning immune systems. Why is that? Well, as you probably imagine, there are a host of reasons and we're going to delve into them today, so you can learn exactly what you can do to boost your immune system and treat your body right so it takes care of you!

360: Models

Fri, 24 Jul 2026 15:04:00 +0000

What is HEALTHcare?

Caring for your health begins with YOU - not your doctor, not the pharmacy. When you grocery shop, that's healthcare. When you choose the products that go on your skin, that's healthcare. When you exercise your body regularly, that's healthcare.

We have two models of healthcare, one is designed to actually boost your innate health, while the other is more focused on treating sickness. There's a place for both - but we need to recognize that we're not going to get real health by utilizing the illness care system. They're designed for different outcomes, so you have to decide how and when to utilize both systems.

Dr. Aplin and the BrainStim Gang go in depth about both models in today's episode to help you decipher when you might be best served by each.

356: Magnesium Supplements

Fri, 19 Jun 2026 20:58:00 +0000

We don't know who needs to hear this, but our systems all work together, hand-in-hand. When we experience a deficiency in one area, there are countless downstream issues that can cascade from that one problem. In today's episode of the BrainStim wellness podcast, we're specifically looking at magnesium-all the available forms, and what that one single mineral does insides our bodies.

Take a listen to see if any of these resonate with your experiences!

Fri, 29 May 2026 15:49:00 +0000

Have you ever experienced acid reflux? If you're like most Americans, the answer is probably yes! What is it and is there anything we can do to combat it besides throw a pill at it?

352: Interstitium

Fri, 22 May 2026 11:37:00 +0000

Have you heard of the interstitium? No, it's not some new planned super highway, at least not in that way! It is a sort of super highway inside each of our bodies though - and it was only discovered a handful of years ago. We're unpacking this huge discovery and the massive impact it could have for our health in today's BrainStim episode.

351: Intermittent Fasting

Fri, 15 May 2026 19:01:00 +0000

In episode #351 of the BrainStim podcast, Dr. Aplin and the team dive into the growing trend of intermittent fasting and explore both its historical roots and modern-day popularity. They discuss how fasting has been practiced for centuries — often tied to religious and cultural traditions — and examine why today's constant access to food may be contributing to many health challenges.

The conversation also unpacks common misconceptions about fasting, how the body responds to periods without food, and why giving the digestive system regular breaks may support overall health and function. As always, we encourage you to think critically about mainstream health habits, ask they "why" behind everything, and consider a more natural approach to wellness.

350: Vitamin D & Brain Health

Fri, 08 May 2026 15:41:00 +0000

Most of us know that Americans are notoriously vitamin D deficient. But do you know what impact that has on your health? Probably you've been told how bad it is for your bones...but what about your brain? As a neurologically based chiropractic office, that's the lens through which we view most of our health concerns, so we're diving into brain health and the role vitamin D plays.

349: Synergy

Fri, 01 May 2026 13:46:00 +0000

Synergy is things working together to create a bigger impact than the things could independently. How does this apply to our health?

Lifestyle behaviors are deeply synergistic — meaning nothing in the body works in isolation. Every action creates a ripple effect across multiple systems, rather than a simple cause-and-effect linear model that traditional western medicine tends to assume.

The BrainStim gang is diving into the synergistic effects - positive and negative - and how we can employ the positive ones to help us on our wellness journey.

348: Too Good To Be True

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 16:57:00 +0000

In this episode, Dr. Richard Aplin and the BrainStim team tackle a theme that runs through modern health culture: the dangerous allure of quick fixes. From GLP-1 weight loss drugs like Wegovy to pharmaceutical disasters like Vioxx — a drug pulled from the market after causing over 88,000 heart attacks and 38,000 deaths — today's miracle drug is often comes with a serious cost.

Human nature is drawn to shortcuts — from fad diets and fortified cereals to seed oils and miracle injections. Our "microwave mentality" of instant gratification keeps us trapped in cycles of short term gain with longterm harm. Where does chiropractic care fit in with this culture - treatment-based approaches vs true restorative adjustments?

We're here to remind you that health is a journey, not a destination — and the choices we make today, including the ones we pass down to our children, shape generational wellness for better or worse.

347: Omegas

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 16:23:00 +0000

You've probably been told by someone that you need to take Omegas...but what are they? We're digging into what Omega 3s are and what they can do for your health. Are they the magic health fix that some people tout? And how about Omega 6? What is the deal, are they awful, are they great? It can be confusing to navigate - so we're breaking it down in today's episode.

346: Pour Into Good Health or Manage Poor Health

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 15:04:00 +0000

There's no escaping health realities. Either you're making choices that move you closer to, or farther from health. Each little decision, whether it's the food you eat (or don't eat), the movement you incorporate (or don't), the quick fixes that mask symptoms but prolong the cause - it all adds up to the picture of your health. So what are little changes you can make today to help move you closer to good health? Take a listen to the BrainStim gang discuss on today's episode.

345: Weather Sickness

Sat, 21 Mar 2026 17:58:00 +0000

In this episode, Dr. Aplin and the BrainStim Gang tackle the age-old question: Why do some people get sick when the weather changes?

Rather than pointing to germs as the culprit, Dr. Aplin challenges the traditional germ theory, noting that if germs were solely to blame, everyone exposed to the same environment would get sick — but they don't. Instead, he argues the real factor is individual immune capacity.

Key takeaways:

It's not about the germ — it's about your capacity. People who don't get sick despite exposure have stronger, more resilient immune systems.
Your immune system is designed to protect you. The job isn't to fight germs with chemicals, but to protect the system that was built to do that for you.
Healthy habits build capacity: good food, clean water, fresh air, and quality sleep are the foundations of a strong immune system.
Suppressing symptoms can backfire. Fevers and other immune responses are the body learning — masking them with medication may prevent the immune system from building resilience.
Weather changes don't make you sick directly — they simply expose those with low immune capacity, pushing them "over the edge."

True health isn't about being asymptomatic on medication — it's about building and protecting your body's natural defenses.

344: Magnesium

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 18:10:00 +0000

If you haven't checked your labs lately, consider this is your go ahead to get your magnesium levels tested! It's a crucial essential mineral that is responsible for SO MANY THINGS in our body's health. And if you're a female, it's even more important that you test because magnesium deficiency is actually the #1 deficiency in women in the United States.

Take a listen to the BrainStim podcast for more helpful tips on what magnesium deficiency can disrupt in your body and how to fix it! Available anywhere you listen to your fav podcasts.

Today's BrainStim episode is all about biohacking - the good, the bad, and the ugly - and what type of impacts you can have on your health!

342: Glyphosate

Fri, 27 Feb 2026 15:37:00 +0000

It's time for a round up on Roundup, or more accurately, on glyphosate. We're discussing the latest on America's favorite herbicide/pesticide. Most of our corn, soybeans, and cotton being grown in the US use the product and even many have been planting so-called "Roundup Ready" genetically engineered glyphosate-tolerant crops were introduced in 1996.

Since glyphosate has been linked to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in thousands of lawsuits, we're questioning what can we do to counteract the toxic load? Is there any way to escape it? Is there anything we can do to mitigate it?

We think you'll find some hope and actionable take aways when you listen to the BrainStim gang discuss this crucial health topic.

341: GRAS

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 17:12:00 +0000

Have you been following the increasingly louder discussions on GRAS? Those are the additives in our food supply that are "Generally Recognized As Safe" - but are they? Would you be shocked to know that even the FDA doesn't know just how many GRAS additives there even are in the United States? They *think* it's somewhere between 4,000-10,000 ingredients that are currently in our supermarket foods - but they're not really sure. If that doesn't cause you some concern, we're not sure what will! How you can you be assured that it's "safe" if they don't even know how many there are?

We're talking all things GRAS today with the BrainStim gang - so take a listen and see what actionable steps you can take to protect yourself and your family from ultra-processed foods.

339: Autonomic Dysregulation

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 17:34:00 +0000

Our bodies are truly amazing. They do countless processes without us ever even thinking about it - or often times even knowing it's happening! That's our autonomic nervous system hard at work. However, our broken world from food to air quality, toxins to medications often cause our autonomic nervous system to dysregulate - or malfunction.

Today we're talking about some of the most common ways our systems malfunction and most importantly, what you can do to correct the problems!

www.invisionchiropractic.com/schedule

338: GLP-1

The BrainStim gang is diving into this controversial topic today - to discuss what they are, how they work, and some possible ways to encourage your body to produce more GLP-1s naturally without the use of potentially harmful pharaceuticals.

337: Obvious Absurdities

Fri, 16 Jan 2026 16:30:00 +0000

In this episode of the BrainStim Podcast, the BrainStim gang explores various "obvious absurdities" in modern healthcare - contradictions and illogical practices that have become normalized despite defying common sense.

If you think covering up a check engine light with duct tape "fixes" the problem, you might be on board with how western healthcare approaches and treats symptoms, rather than addressing root causes.

As a neurologically based chiropractor, we're all about addressing root causes and healing from the inside out. Take a listen and see how many of the absurdities you've bought in to - or have eliminated from your life!

336: Empty Promises

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 15:21:00 +0000

It's a new year - which can only mean one thing: New Year's Resolutions!

So the age old question - how's that working? For most of us, it's often a futile exercise in frustration. We start with the best of intentions, then by mid-January we've fallen off the bandwagon and by February we've forgotten we even set the goal in the first place!

What's the solution to goal setting? That's the focus of today's BrainStim podcast episode. From Be, Do, Have - to intention and repetition, the gang is discussing the most effective way to set and follow through on goals.

333: Models of Care

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 18:06:00 +0000

We're starting to see a shift in the way we, as a country, view our modern healthcare. Our disasterous outcomes have begged the question, is what we're doing working? And if it's not, but we keep doing it, that's the very definition of insanity. We're OVER the Disease Model, and we couldn't be more excited for people to embrace the HEALTH Model. Let's stop things BEFORE they get started - let's analyze what is creating the problems in the first place, not just mask the symptoms with a quick "fix".

So how do we embrace the Health Model? That's what the BrainStim gang is discussion on today's exciting episode!!

We're continuing our series on health at every developmental stage - so this week, it's everyone's favorite stage: TEENAGERS!

All kidding aside, the teens often get a bad rap, but when we study what is going on in our physiology during these years, it's no wonder there are attitudes, outbursts, and high emotional output.

After last week's engaging discussion about pregnancy and the important role nutrition plays, the BrainStim Gang is back at it, keeping the developmental conversation going, this week about pregnancy and the role the nervous system plays.

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 15:18:00 +0000

Most everyone these days is inundated with stimuli all day long. Did you know that how your brain handles those constant interruptions has a lot to do with how your body will physically handle them as well?

321: UPFs & Education

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 15:29:00 +0000

The FDA recently put out a report stating that Children receive more than 60 % of their calories from UPFs - Ultra Processed Foods. UPFs contain industrial formulations including chemicals, manufactured sweeteners, flavor enhancers, colorants, emulsifiers, thickeners, anti-foaming agents, bulking or gelling agents—to make them highly palatable, visually appealing, and shelf-stable. That all happens to also make food highly toxic to our bodies. It's no wonder why almost 20% of our children are obese and trends put that number growing annually.

So WHY has this mock-food been allowed - and WHAT can we do about it? That's what the BrainStim gang is delving into in today's epsiode. We hope you listen and start a health revolution in your town to change the generational cycle of sickness.

320: Children's Health

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 15:46:00 +0000

1 in 4 children in the U.S. lives with a chronic health condition (e.g., asthma, obesity, diabetes, ADHD, etc.).
Asthma: Affects ~6 million children (~8.4% of U.S. kids).
Obesity (ages 2–19): ~21% are classified as obese — one of the highest rates in the developed world.
Type 2 diabetes in children: Increasing rapidly, especially in adolescents. Most common among children of color.
The U.S. consistently ranks near the bottom among high-income countries for Infant Mortality Rate.

And yet, the U.S. spends more per child on health care than any other country, yet outcomes often lag behind. So does that sound like real "health" care to you? We have worse outcomes on infant mortality, obesity, and mental health and higher rates of hospitalization for preventable conditions and yet we pay MORE for those results?

You know the old adage, you keep doing what you've always done and you'll keep getting what you always get. So is it time for a change? We sure think so. The BrainStim gang is discussing what real health for our children looks like - and what changes you can make to help the next generation be truly healthy.

319: Back To School

Fri, 01 Aug 2025 11:18:00 +0000

It's about that time - back to school!

Notebooks - CHECK
Pencils - CHECK
Backpack - CHECK
Haircut - CHECK
New 'fits' - CHECK
Healthy Habits - ?????

How many of us put healthy habits on our list of back to school prep? Probably not a lot of us - but it's so crucial during this season to help your kids make healthy choices. From eating a clean, balanced diet, to learning to manage stress, your kids' health requires daily good choices, not a cram session.

The BrainStim gang is discussing this in detail in today's episode!

#318: The Warrior & The Peacemaker

What does health really mean? Is it the absence of symptoms? Or is it something deeper?

In today's intriguing episode, the BrainStim Gang is discussing the journey of real health, or is it a destination?

How do we judge our health - based on the choices we make or by the absence of symptons?

317: Pendulum

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 13:26:00 +0000

Are you old enough to remember when American health wasn't abysmal? And if you are, did you ever know children that were as sick as our kids are today?

As of 2023, the CDC estimates that approximately 33% of U.S. adolescents aged 12–17 have prediabetes.

21.1% of U.S. youth aged 2–19  years are obese, up from 13.9% in 1999–2000!

It's like our health has been on a crash course for a few decades, but is rapidly accelerating to a terrible end. Or is it?

Have the American people finally realized the power they have in the food choices they make - causing a pendulum shift in our diet and nutrition? Suddenly many food manufacturers are removing dyes from their products, using natural ingredients instead of chemically produced or synthetically processed ingredients.

This shift is bound to have a profound impact on our SAD (Standard American Diet) - and we are HERE for it!

Take a listen to the BrainStim Gang discuss the current pendulum shift in today's episode!

From lab results to action plans, AI holds a lot of opportunity for us as it pertains to our health - but can we trust it to steer is in the right direction? Take a listen to this thought-provoking episode.

315: Vacation or Not

Fri, 27 Jun 2025 12:22:00 +0000

Summer is in full-swing and with that, if you're fortunate enough, comes...vacation!

But before you buy those tickets and book those flights, it's important to get prepared, and we're not just talking about your packing list. We often associate vacation with rest and relaxation - but if that's the case, why do so many people get sick towards the end of their "relaxation vacation"? In fact, 66% of Americans report that they feel stressed before, during, or after a vacation,
according to the American Psychological Association (APA).

It's so important to make the most of the time and money we have, so the BrainStim gang is discussing a crucial checklist of preparation to ensure vacations bring the restoration they're anticipated to bring, instead of stress and sickness.

314: It's Your Feet

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 12:19:00 +0000

Have you ever stopped to consider...your FEET?! I mean, unless you've had issues, it's probably not something you give a lot of thought to. However, as the foundation of our skeletal structure, they are CRUCIAL to our health. Foot health isn't just about your foot. It impacts every other part of your body - so what can we do to support our feet, to in turn support the rest of our body's health? That's exactly what the BrainStim gang is disucssing in today's podcast.

312: Walking Can Save Your Life

Fri, 23 May 2025 21:48:00 +0000

What's the big deal about a sendentary lifestyle? Does it really impact your health that much? Turns out, it does in a BIG way.

The BrainStim gang discusses a new study that shows some pretty impressive benefits from WALKING! That's right - just walking. You don't have to CrossFit, HIIT, extreme conditioning program to see big benefits from moving.

What's the best distance? Well there are different benefits at different distances, so take a listen to today's episode and let's get moving and start putting those benefits to work!

311: Hidden Dangers in the Modern Diet

Fri, 16 May 2025 14:47:00 +0000

What does it really mean to eat healthy? By now we're all pretty aware that:

We NEED to eat healthy to maintain good health, and
Most offerings at fast food restaurants and grocery stores do not accomplish point #1!

So, what does that leave us with? How do we manage healthy eating in a hectic lifestyle? Unfortunately, something has to give. And while we don't preach perfection, we do preach progress - daily choices that move you either towards, or away from your health goals.

That's exactly what the BrainStim gang discuss in today's episode, as a newly published study points to just HOW impactful processed food and the modern American diet are on our health.

310: Alzheimer's Prevention Program

Fri, 09 May 2025 14:13:00 +0000

In today's episode, the BrainStim Gang is tackling one of the biggest health issues facing our nation: Alheimer's disease. The stats are staggering - truly incomprehensible if they are anywhere near correct in their predictions for our near future. So what we can do about it? Is it genetic? Are there factors that can push us into developing it, or protect us from it?

Dr. Richard Aplin brings his wealth of knowledge about brain health - what it is - what it isn't - and how YOU can be empowered to take control of it.

As always, if you'd like more information, visit www.invisionchiropractic.com where you can find educational resources, as well as schedule a 15 minute free phone call with Dr. Aplin.

309: Overwhelm

Fri, 02 May 2025 14:03:00 +0000

What do you think the top health issues facing us today are?

You may not land on being "overwhelmed" - but when you think about what that does to our systems, you'll quickly realize that our bodies were made for brief moments of "fight or flight" - but the world we live in today keeps us ever-stuck in this state.

Overwhelm over time = dis-ease. Dis-ease over time = Disease.

What's worse, when we focus on the symptoms instead of the process that led to the disease, we generally end up creating MORE problems!

It's definitely part of life to get "overwhelmed" - but we've got to realize there's a difference between being overwhelmed and living in a state of overwhelm.

The BrainStim gang is discussing how we get ourselves out of constant states of overwhelm.

As always, visit www.invisionchiropractic.com for more information or to schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone call with Dr. Richard Aplin!

308: Lifestyle

Fri, 25 Apr 2025 15:16:00 +0000

So much of our health is actually less dependent on genetics than most people think. The true driver of our health is usually LIFESYTLE! That's a bit of a double-edged sword - because it at once means - you can impact your health by the choices you make, both for the good and for the bad.

The BrainStim gang is discussing lifestyle choices that can have a big impact on your health in today's podcast episode. Take a listen to see what you can incorporate into your daily living to help boost your health and further your wellness journey!

307: Spring Cleaning

Fri, 18 Apr 2025 14:50:00 +0000

It's everybody's favorite time of year - SPRING CLEANING time! Well, maybe only for some. Are you one of those who saves it all up and does a huge clean each spring? Or do you maybe take a different approach? How do we apply that concept to our health? Is it about massive changes and big impacts but only periodically, or is there something to be said for little consistent choices that build towards progress?

The BrainStim gang is discussing different approaches to health - and life in today's episode!

As always, if you want to schedule a 15 minute phone call with Dr. Richard Aplin, please visit www.invisionchiropractic.com/schedule.

306: Stress, Acute & Chronic

Fri, 28 Mar 2025 16:03:00 +0000

What's stress got to do with your health? Only everything! But, is all stress bad? How about acute vs chronic stress? Is there a difference? Why can two people experience the same external stressor, but one develops high blood pressure while the other seems to handle it without missing a beat?

We're delving into stress, our body's response to stress, and outcomes from the stress-filled world we current exist in.

305: March Madness

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 15:04:00 +0000

It's that time of year again - MARCH MADNESS! But don't worry, the BrainStim gang isn't sidebarring this episode to talk sports, they're talking health madness - and it's a spicy one! You don't want to miss their assessment on what we've been through in the last 5 years and the textbook definition of madness.

As always, if you'd like more information or to contact Dr. Richard Aplin, please visit www.invisionchiropractic.com.

304: Pollen Season or Allergy Season?

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 14:14:00 +0000

Are you ready for it? As they say, if you stay ready, you never have to "get" ready! And for this application, being ready means the difference between experiencing "Pollen Season" and the dreaded "Allergy Season". We're all going to experience Pollen Season, but not all of us will have to experience Allergy Season. Dr. Aplin and the BrainStim gang are asking their favorite question again, WHY? Why is it that some of us don't even register the change in seasons except an increasing in car washing, while others end up sick, miserable, and missing out on life? That's the deep dive in today's episode!

If you'd like to discuss this or any other health topic, you can schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone call with Dr. Aplin, by visiting: www.invisionchiropractic.com/schedule

303: Myopia in Children

Fri, 07 Mar 2025 16:39:00 +0000

There's a fact that has become increasingly well known and researched in scientific circles: children are developing myopia - or nearsightedness - at an astounding rate. It is believed that the high utilization of electronic devices for education and entertainment in today's youth has greatly escalated the occurrence of nearsightedness. So what can we do about that? Give our culture's utter dependence, it's not very realistic to remove or even limit the electronic devices enough to make a difference. Even if you were able to remove them from the home, schools utilize electronic devices for the majority of their learning practices - so how do we effectively combat this trend?

The BrainStim gang is discussing this important issue facing our children today in depth for episode #303: Myopia in Children.

302: The Dance

Fri, 21 Feb 2025 16:22:00 +0000

Every day, we are exposed to germs, viruses, and bacteria. But what truly determines our health outcomes is how well we prepare our bodies to handle these invaders. In this episode, we explore "The Dance"—the intricate balance between structural health, nutrition, and neurology—and how each plays a crucial role in strengthening our immune system.

Join us as we discuss how optimizing these three pillars can enhance your body's natural defenses, improve resilience, and set the stage for long-term wellness. Tune in and discover how to empower your health through intentional balance and preparation.

301: Taste the Rainbow

Fri, 14 Feb 2025 15:36:00 +0000

By now most of us know we should be eating healthy, including lots of fresh produce. But have you considered the health content of the produce you're eating? It's so important to stay informed on the trends grocers and producers use to make their produce "look" appealing but is disguising the contents inside.

Today we're discussing the need to "taste the rainbow" - but what that really means for us as informed consumers!

299: Lifestyle & AQ

Fri, 10 Jan 2025 19:27:00 +0000

Do you know what the top 3 health issues causing death in Americans today is? You can probably guess them - but we can boil it down to one simple culprit. What is it and what can we do, practically, about it?

It all boils down to our AQ - Adapbility Quotient. AQ is a measure of an our ability to adapt to new situations, challenges, and changes in our environment and it is increasingly recognized as a critical skill for success in today's fast-paced, ever-changing world. In our world-view it is an essential measurement for your health.

So how do we build our AQ and help build our body's ability to thrive in this often toxic environment we live in? Tune in to today's episode to hear all about it from the BrainStim gang.

In part 3 of BrainStim's Invest In What Matters series, we dive deep into the critical role of proper nutrition in achieving optimal health and well-being. Join us as we explore the challenges of obtaining complete nutrition through food alone, the pitfalls of poor-quality supplements, and how to make informed choices for your health.

297: Invest In What Matters - Neurology

Fri, 06 Dec 2024 16:15:00 +0000

We're continuing our 3-part series about what we call, Invest In What Matters - which ultimately is your HEALTH! If you missed the first part, be sure to listen to episode #296 by clicking here.

In part 2, we're all about neurology. When's the last time you saw a doctor for a physical pain and they checked to see what was going on in your brain?! That might sound a little absurd, but when you realize the brain animates the body, you start to realize that things manifesting in a physical symptom originates from the brain. So we take a very different approach to every patient we see - focusing on brain health just as much as physical structure.

We do that through three very unique therapies, BrainTap, NeuroInfiniti, and NeuroTracker. We also do that through our adjustments, elminating the interferences to the brain's signals. When your brain is healthy - so are you!

Take a listen to this episode and as always, if you have questions, you can contact the BrainStim gang at (256) 489-6605 or visit https://www.invisionchiropractic.com/schedule to schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone call with Dr. Aplin!

296: Invest In What Matters - Physics

Fri, 22 Nov 2024 15:11:00 +0000

We're kicking off a 3-part series about what we call, Invest In What Matters - which ultimately is your HEALTH! But how do we do that? There's no shortage of experts and social media influencers telling you about the latest biohack that's going to revolutionize your health. But what really works - not just for today - but for your life - and even for your future generations' lives?

We see a 3-pronged approach to health as being the crucial way to truly change your wellbeing. The first of those prongs is your physics - or what is physically going on inside your body? How does your structure impact your daily health? No pillar can stand alone, but this is a great one to start with. Take a listen to the BrainStim Gang's discussion around proper support for your structure as you journey towards real health.

294: Nutrient Deficiencies

Fri, 08 Nov 2024 14:53:00 +0000

It's no big controversy to admit that Americans are highly nutrient deficient. What does become more controversial is WHY? The BrainStim gang is talking about the basic signs of nutrient deficiency and some of the main culprits behind it. You might not even realize just how many things can impact our nutrient absorption! The BrainStim Gang led by Dr. Richard Aplin is here to help you recognize the destructive behaviors and make positive change on your health trajectory in today's episode.

293: Ear Infections

Fri, 01 Nov 2024 17:26:00 +0000

If you or your child have ever suffered with chronic ear infections, you simply have to take a listen to today's episode. The BrainStim gang, led by Dr. Richard Aplin, delves into this common ailment and what you can do about it. Inevitably, the discussion will always leads back to the big question, WHY is this happening?

292: Fear And You

Fri, 18 Oct 2024 14:42:00 +0000

Do you live in a constant state of fear? Most of us would probably claim, "No!" - but our health might be telling us otherwise. The BrainStim gang explores the symptoms and causes behind constant anxiety, fear, worry, and most importantly, what we can do to help our bodies have a quick recovery from the barrage of attacks we face every day.

291: Get In Front

Fri, 11 Oct 2024 17:12:00 +0000

We're delving into the psychology behind motivation in today's BrainStim episode. We instinctively have two real factors behind our motivation. We're either 1. seeking pleasure or 2. avoiding pain. So whether you're seeing most your ads on social media, or are keeping it old school with TV and radio, you can bet they're all following the same formula: entice or scare. So when it comes to our health, are we any different? What is motivating us to make better choices so we can see better health outcomes? And the real question is, are we willing to harness that motivation into real change, or are we going to reach for the quick fix?

We sure hope you're moving closer and closer to lasting change and leaning on quick fixes less and less as you start to realize real health! If you're still looking for guidance or need help on your journey, you can schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone call with Dr. Aplin! Just visit https://www.invisionchiropractic.com/schedule to schedule your appointment.

290: The Difference Between What and Why

Fri, 04 Oct 2024 15:22:00 +0000

It's one of our favorite topics here on BrainStim - we're talking about the difference between the WHAT and the WHY. Our traditional chronic healthcare system is all about the "what" - identify the issue and more likely than not, prescribe the "solution".

But isn't there a better way? When you identify the "why" - you're starting down the root cause pathway, which will always lead you to a better outcome than simply identifying a "what". When you find out the "why", you can start to make real changes to your health for longlasting outcomes.

We hope you enjoy today's episode and visit us at www.invisionchiropractic.com for more information or to schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone call with Dr. Aplin.

289: NeuroVision

Fri, 20 Sep 2024 18:57:00 +0000

As a neurologically based chiropractic practice, we're often asked what makes us different from a traditional chiropractic office. We look at a whole-body approach, as most chiropractors do, but we pay special attention to our brain, which animates our entire body, including our nervous system. That's why we offer NeuroVision - an arm of InVision Chiropractic that specializes in three unique brain-based therapies to build your brain's resilience.

NeuroInfiniti, Neurotracker, and BrainTap are three science-based, cutting-edge technologies, each focused on building the brain in different ways. Take a listen to today's in-depth discussion to learn more about each modality and why you would choose one, two, or even all three to help you live the healthiest life possible!

288: Blindspot

Fri, 13 Sep 2024 16:27:00 +0000

What driver amongst us hasn't had the experience of starting to change lanes only to be honked at to narrowly avoid a collision? Blindspots are inevitable in driving...but what about in health? Are we even aware how many blindspots we have when it comes to our bodies? A healthy nervous system is the key to so many health issues - so how do we open our eyes to our own immune function blindspots?

Today's podcast will delve into just that issue and what we can do to boost our nervous system function to optimal levels.

287: Choices

Fri, 30 Aug 2024 13:55:00 +0000

In our traditional Western medicine view, we often don't feel like we have a lot of choices when it comes to health decisions and outcomes. From schools and employers dictating what shots we must have, to our record breaking number of prescriptions taken per person in the US, it often feels like we're trapped in a cycle of sickness instead of living a vibrant, full life.

That's what we want to shout it from the rooftops - there is another way! If you spend all that time and energy focusing on the thing that will provide you with real health - namely a healthy nervous system - you can experience life to the fullest.

Today's episode is all about the choices you have when it comes to your health. We hope you enjoy it - and as always, if you have any questions, you can visit www.invisionchiropractic.com or call us at 256.489.6605.

286: Central Nervous System

Mon, 26 Aug 2024 11:57:00 +0000

How are you doing with your brain health? Have you ever even given that any thought? We're not just talking about "exercising" it with puzzles and memorywork, we're talking about how well it functions in the first place!

Since the brain animates the body, it (along with the entire central nervous system) is the origin of the problems we face in our body - not just our mental health and cognition.

If you've been around BrainStim at all, you know we are not about symptoms. We're all about root causes, which can all be traced back to your brain. Take care of your brain, take care of your health. We're talking about what real brain health looks like in today's podcast.

285: Problematic Smartphone Use

Fri, 16 Aug 2024 16:11:00 +0000

A recent study found that there is an alarming rise in what is labeled "PSU" or Problematic Smartphone Use. About one in five teenagers aged 16-18 displayed problematic behavior with their phones, with many saying they wanted help cutting down, experts from King's College London found.

So today we're discussing what that means for our next generation - and those to come - how we can help support our teens (and let's be real - all of us to some extent!) to live a healthy, vibrant life!

284: Expect the Unexpected Part 2

Fri, 09 Aug 2024 11:54:00 +0000

They will continue to discuss what it means to Expect the Unexpected in today's episode!

283: Expect The Unexpected

Thu, 01 Aug 2024 20:42:00 +0000

When's the best time to get prepared? Is it enough to try to prevent something from happening or is there even more you could be doing? At InVision Chiropractic, we know education is key to health. So in today's episode we're talking about how understanding our bodies - and ultimately our health - will help you operate out of power instead of fear. Take a listen - and as always reach out to us if you have any questions: (256) 489-6605 | www.invisionchiropractic.com

282: Prepare on the Inside Too

Fri, 26 Jul 2024 13:54:00 +0000

It's already "Back To School" season here in Alabama, and while that means a lot of external preparations - it seems that we tend to neglect what that means for internal preparations. The BrainStim Gang is taking on that topic today in what it means to truly get prepared for school.

If you'd like to reference the article mentioned in the discussion, you can find that here: https://rb.gy/w41km7

281: Aha Moment

Fri, 19 Jul 2024 15:12:00 +0000

Have you ever had one of those "Aha" moments? Where suddenly everything seems clear and you wonder how you missed it for all those years?

Dr. Aplin and the BrainStim gang are discussing those today - but more than that - what do you do after one strikes? How do you put that knowledge into action to make lasting change?

280: Overwhelmed

Fri, 05 Jul 2024 11:22:00 +0000

How often do you feel overwhelmed? As a practice, it seems as though people experience this emotion more and more since the pandemic. Why is that? And what can we do about it? Dr. Aplin and Dr. Stephens dive into a detailed conversation in today's episode - enjoy!

279: Diagnose Symptoms Or Cause

Sat, 22 Jun 2024 13:19:00 +0000

When people head to the doctor, why are they usually going? To fix a cause or remedy a symptom? So often in our modern world, we've confused the two - thinking if we fix a symptom, we've fixed the problem. But far too often today's western medicine offers masking of symptoms as "health" instead of identifying and correcting root causes. We are discussing symptoms vs solutions in today's podcast - hope you enjoy!

278: Chronic Pain & Long Covid

Fri, 07 Jun 2024 11:31:00 +0000

Could there be one culprit behind everything from Long Covid to chronic pain? Dr. Richard Aplin discusses everything from brain fog to indigestion and what could possibly be the underlying issue for everything that goes wrong in our bodies in today's episode.

277: Overpronation

Fri, 31 May 2024 17:02:00 +0000

Foot pain is so common these days, it's almost become expected. Unfortunately, "just deal with it" is a terrible idea, as are some of the common "solutions" to foot pain like steroid shots. Overpronation is the result of a process - just like all breakdowns in our bodies. So how do we correct the process so we can impact the condition? Dr. Richard Aplin and his team discuss in this week's episode!

276: Inflammation

Fri, 24 May 2024 13:55:00 +0000

So many of our ailments stem from the same problem: inflammation. So we're talking all about it, what it is, and what we can do about it.

275: Fasting

Fri, 17 May 2024 12:45:00 +0000

Fasting has become quite the health craze as of late. But is there something to the hype? The BrainStim gang discusses fasting and what benefits it offers for our health in today's episode.
