In this episode, host Carol Beringer sits down with Dr. Alissa M. Salvitti, DC, a traditional naturopath and chiropractor from West Chester, Pennsylvania. With a multifaceted approach to wellness, Dr. Salvitti shares her expertise in nutrition, lymphatic therapy, and chiropractic care.
Join Carol and Alissa as they explore the importance of lymphatic drainage for detoxification and immune health. They discuss the life-changing benefits of the "floating hug" (affectionately called "the flug" by clients) compression therapy, and how it helps move from "fight or flight" to "rest and digest" - essential for healing and recovery. This conversation offers valuable insights into maintaining wellness as a lifestyle rather than waiting for health crises to occur.
