When you're in pain, what do you usually reach for? Painkillers? A patch? Supplements? Maybe a hot shower or some essential oils? These might work temporarily, but here's the truth: pain is often the last thing to show up in your body and the first thing to go away. If you’re using pain as the only signal that something's wrong, you might be missing the bigger picture.

I’m Dr. Anjali, founder of Back in Balance. I’m a non-cracking chiropractor and integrative functional nutrition specialist, and I’m passionate about helping people move well, eat well, and live well—whether you’re a working parent, a business leader, or navigating any phase of life. And today, I want to be clear about something: I won’t be your holistic bandaid.

What Does That Mean?

Too often, people come to holistic care hoping for a natural version of a quick fix. Something to cover the pain, ease the discomfort, and let them keep going. But true wellness doesn’t work like that.

When you experience a symptom like fatigue, headaches, digestive issues, or back pain, your body is trying to talk to you. The nervous system is constantly sending information between your body and brain. In fact, 80% of that communication travels from your body to your brain.

So when we pop a supplement or rub on a cream and ignore what our body is telling us, we’re putting a holistic bandaid on something that deserves real attention.

The 360° Approach

At Back in Balance, we take a 360° approach to health. That means addressing three types of stress:

• Structural/physical (like posture or alignment)

• Nutritional/chemical (including digestion and toxins)

• Mental/emotional (your mindset and stress response)

These stressors are always interacting. If you get a headache, it could be from lack of sleep, dehydration, too much screen time, emotional overload, or even poor digestion. Or all of the above. That’s why real healing requires us to look at the full picture.

Why This Matters

I work with people every day who’ve spent years managing symptoms instead of getting to the root cause. It takes time, yes. But imagine:

• Waking up with energy.

• Digesting your meals with ease.

• Enjoying your family without nagging back pain.

• Feeling like your body is working with you, not against you.

That’s the power of a connected, regulated nervous system. And that’s the difference between maintenance care and constantly chasing pain.

A Real Life Example

One of my patients came in after dealing with chronic headaches and fatigue for years. She’d tried everything: meds, supplements, massage. But it wasn’t until we combined chiropractic care, nutrition, and nervous system support that she finally got real, lasting relief. Not just less pain—more life.

So, What Now?
