Network Chiropractic and Belonging in Bend, Oregon

"May you listen to your longing to be free. May the frames of your belonging be generous enough for your dreams. May you arise each day with a voice of blessing whispering in your heart." - John O’Donohue, “For Belonging”

This blessing (and truly all of John O’Donohue’s poetry and prose) sings to the soul and awakens the deepest longings within.

As I prepare to share Network Spinal Chiropractic in my hometown of Bend, Oregon, I’m also looking for a name that represents this way of serving the local community. I keep hearing in my mind: "You Belong Here.” This is at the core of my experience of healing - both as a practitioner and a client. It’s a message from the soul, a reminder that we are not alone and we are most definitely meant to be here at this time.

You Belong Here…

Belonging (or rather, not belonging) is such a common theme in our post-modern world. My vision is to create a healing space where all feel welcome. This space is warm and inviting with plenty of light - inner and outer. It is a place to go to reconnect with your own essence; and then from that connection, to know your place and purpose in the world - to be both inspired and motivated to contribute in a positive life-affirming way.

So, how does Network Chiropractic as a healing technique help you with this soul-longing for belonging? Network Chiropractic releases tension and protective mechanisms in the body through light, precise touch that enhances the communication and integrity of your nervous system. The nervous system governs your body’s sense of health and safety. It is also the conduit of higher consciousness - what some may call soul. This means that through supporting your nervous system’s health, you not only improve your physical health, you also grow, expand and interact with yourself and your world in new ways that are more fulfilling. You belong to yourself.

See, the body is a grounding place for the soul here on Earth at this time. Our experiences and emotions manifest in our bodies, either connecting or disconnecting us from the gifts of embodiment and community. In the same way that love and care make a house a home, gentle touch and guided breath awareness create a sense of home within the body.

Network Chiropractic Care with Dr. Jennifer in Bend, Oregon…

When you’re receiving Network Chiropractic, you’re surrounded by like-minded and hearted people - we often work within a group of three to five people and in that way, create a group field that augments the healing of all. Have you heard the phrase: “Wherever two or three are gathered, there am I?” Well, it’s just that. When the “I” of the Higher Self is present, a humbling and healing space is created for the WholeSelf (ego and all). Just as when a child feels safe, s/he calms down, so does our own inner child and ego personality. There is no more need for defense posturing, protecting or isolating. There is a lot of space for healing.

Listen to your heart and the whisperings of your soul. Come home to your deepest, highest self. I’d love to see you in my office when the doors open!
