Welcome to the Get Better Not Older podcast, the first of many more to come! We decided to create this podcast because we've noticed similar patterns in our clinical practices.

Our goal with the Get Better Not Older movement is to help you move better, feel better, and live better through the insights we provide. I've been practicing chiropractic for 25 years, specializing in the spine, joints, and soft tissue disorders. I do a lot of active release therapy and functional rehab to keep patients moving well.

Shannon has 31 years of experience as a clinical dietitian, specializing in obesity prevention and functional nutrition. She focuses on preventing disease through nutrition and recently sharpened her skills in integrative medicine, which she'll incorporate into our discussions.

We believe the future of medicine should focus on foundational health rather than just treating symptoms. My role is to find the cause of pain and improve movement, while Shannon addresses nutritional deficits to support overall health.

Between us, we have over 50 years of clinical experience. We often find ourselves playing the role of family physicians for our friends and family, helping them with various health issues. Our approach is not just about prescribing medicine but promoting health from the inside out.

A big part of our motivation is seeing people slip through the cracks as they age. We want to change the misconception that aging means becoming frail and dependent on medication. Instead, we believe in staying active and healthy, like the 86-year-old sprinter who ran a 100-meter dash in 17 seconds.

Investing in your health now can prevent expensive medical treatments later. We encourage people to spend a bit more on good food and proactive healthcare to avoid spending much more on medical treatments down the line.

Our lifestyle might seem intense, but we advocate for simple, sustainable changes that anyone can make. It's about making good choices most of the time and not being perfect. Everyone's health journey is different, and Shannon's expertise helps tailor individual plans to meet those needs.

Food isn't just fuel; it's emotional and celebratory. By learning to moderate and make healthy choices most of the time, we can all live better, not just older. Our podcast will provide tips, insights, and motivation to help you embrace this new way of living.
