She now teaches with the ICPA, leads seminars, and works with couples to optimize health before pregnancy even begins.   🎧 On this podcast, you'll hear: Why both partners should be under chiropractic care preconception The critical role of the nerve system in hormonal health and stress response   How subluxation influences pregnancy and birth outcomes   Why sperm health is declining—and what chiropractors need to know   How metabolic flexibility impacts fertility   The powerful ripple effect of clear nerve systems across generations   How to support families from conception through birth and beyond   Hear how chiropractic care can help shift fertility outcomes, improve birth experiences, and support healthier babies—starting long before delivery day.
