Inspired by Finn
For centuries, Baltic amber has been used in Europe as a natural and traditional remedy and curative for many ailments and discomforts. Long ago it was considered one of the leading medicines of its time. Baltic amber is the most esteemed amber in the world, and the healing qualities of Baltic amber make it unlike any other type of amber found in the world.
It is said that when Baltic amber is worn on the skin, the skin’s warmth draws trace amounts of healing oils out of the amber. These oils contain succinic acid and are absorbed into the skin.
Baltic amber has some of the highest concentrations of succinic acid found in nature, and this is what makes it so special. Succinic acid is a natural component of plant and animal tissues, and its presence in the human body is a beneficial anti-inflammatory with many benefits (relieve discomfort, strengthen immune, restore energy, maintain wellness, reduce headaches)
Inspired by Finn is a very reputable baltic amber source. We have a large inventory of their baltic amber necklaces at our Midlothian location.
DoTerra and Young Living
We offer a wide variety of essential oils and compatible resources to help you and your family integrate them into your natural “medicine” cabinet!! The use of essential oils is quickly becoming popular. To help our patients not only use essential oils safely, but also get the maximum benefit from them, we offer classes on essential oil education.
Essential oils are naturally occurring, volatile aromatic compounds are found in the seeds, bark, stems, roots, flowers, and other parts of plants. Essential oils give plants their distinctive smells, essential oils protect plants and play a role in plant pollination. In addition to their intrinsic benefits to plants and their beautiful fragrance, essential oils have long been used for food preparation, beauty treatment, and health-care practices.
Even with pure essential oils the composition of the oil can vary depending on the time of day, season, geographic location, method and duration of distillation, year grown, and the weather, making every step of the production process a critical determinant of the overall quality of the essential oil product.
Essential oils can be used for a wide range of emotional and physical wellness applications. They can be used as single essential oils or in complex essential oil blends depending on user experience and desired benefit.
All of our professionals at Peace of Life Chiropractic are a wealth of knowledge on the use and efficacy of essential oils. We all use them personally, as well as integrate them into our care at Peace of Life Chiropractic. During your next visit, feel free to bring any of your essential oil questions!
We often get the question, which essential oil is better? Is there a best? Can I get away with the cheaper version at my local pharmacy. We recommend doing your homework on the manufacturer. There, unfortunately, is no regulation on the production of essential oils. “Therapeutic Grade” and “Certified Pure” are merely claims to meeting internal standards for the company making the claim. These are not typically objective, third-party tested measures of quality. So, again, when choosing which essential oil brand you use, just ensure that you trust the company is putting the research, time, and money into making a quality product that can serve your family best! At Peace of Life Chiropractic we are mostly exclusive to DoTerra and Young Living.

Rock Tape
First used by acupuncturists and chiropractors in Japan, today kinesiology tape is used by practitioners throughout the world to treat injuries and improve sports performance.

Great Lakes Collagen
WE LOVE COLLAGEN!! The uses are limitless! Basically, this product offers amazing quality protein broken down into individual amino acids.
COLLAGEN HYDROLYSATE IS UNIQUE IN ITS AMINO ACID STRUCTURE
Great Lakes Collagen provides high amounts of glycine and proline, which are found in lower amounts in other protein food supplements. After the age of 25 the body’s natural ability to produce the amino acids diminishes, but can be easily obtained from adding collagen protein to the diet.
Talk about sourcing!! Great Lakes have located pure near the Andes Mountains! The ranchers in the areas of Cordoba, Rosario and Mendoza traditionally raise their cattle in herds that graze freely on the natural grasslands. What we have found through rigorous testing standards by outside laboratories is that we never find insecticides, pesticides, herbicides, steroids, antibiotics or hormones in our collagen or gelatin.
Dr. Axe states the benefits of collagen well 🙂

China Gel
China-Gel is a natural, unique herbal formula of time-proven ingredients developed by chiropractor, Dr. Paul Tullio. A greaseless therapeutic gel that incorporates modern technology with the ancient pain relieving concepts of Chinese medicine.
At Peace of Life Chiropractic we use China-Gel in a variety of ways. Sometimes it is to provide a pain-relieving experience during an adjustment. It also makes a great manual therapy vehicle, allowing the pressure of the therapy to be complimented with the coolness of the gel. Often, we use it following a treatment to give the patient more ammo against painful tension and subluxation!
You can use China-Gel at home!! China-Gel stimulates the body’s endorphin response to pain and reduces the pain – producing “P factor” in muscle tissue, thereby lessening pain and discomfort, and enhancing healing. The deep penetrating effect offers long lasting cool-to-warm soothing relief.
