Healing Happens in Community
At the beginning of August 2021, Mutter Chiropractic will be expanding. We are keeping our current location in Suite B of 3810 SE Division St. and adding a new larger space (Suite C), which is located just down the hall from where we are now. Suite B will be reserved for new patient exams, re-exams, and some private appointments. The new space, Suite C, will be where most office visits take place. Adding this larger space will allow us to increase appointment availability and options. In Suite C we will have appointment blocks each day designated as “semi-private”. This means you will have your own table and for now will be in your own room. Either Dr. Naomi or I will be working with more than one practice member during the 30 minute appointment.
The main reason for this is simple: healing happens in community. Expanding the practice into this larger space is part of pulling that principle into lived experience.
Since April 2020, we have offered a group appointment type (labelled “family”) and have limited it to members of the same household in response to pandemic guidance and the small footprint of Suite B, our current location. Beginning in August 2021, we will introduce semi-private appointment blocks in the new space, which allows us to practice healing in community. Over time and with consideration we will open again into full group appointments.
The style of chiropractic we practice is built around Network Spinal Analysis. Network uses the term “entrainment” to describe the experience and the application of gentle spinal contacts that help the body become more self-reflective, reduce spinal tension, and reorganize energy throughout the body. The process is enhanced when shared. This principle is the foundation for why Network practitioners have an open format in their offices.
There are many benefits to this style of practice. The neural and energetic advantages of entrainment are enhanced in a group environment that is dedicated to the health, healing, and empowerment of those whose enter it. The communication and facilitation of breath, movement, and flow also become more resonant in a community healing space.
We are committed to extending the safe and sacred space we have established in Suite B into the new space of Suite C, as well. All rooms are well-ventilated and contain HEPA air filter/purifiers. We will continue best practices for the safety and cleanliness of the physical and energetic space.
We are very excited for the opportunity to share this growth with you. I have practiced in community entrainment spaces for a decade prior to 2020, and I enjoy offering care in this way. I understand that this style of practice will not appeal to everyone. Dr. Naomi and I will continue to offer private appointments, and will do our best to accommodate everyone as we transition.
