This month we’re exploring No Bad Parts—and this conversation brings that lens to the body. Dr. Hall traces a health-first childhood to a chiropractic career, then reframes common fears about the first adjustment (it’s safer and gentler than it looks). Through a Parts Work lens, we explore how the body’s “protectors” show up: muscle guarding as a protective part, sharp pain as a signal part, and the sympathetic fight/flight system as a vigilant manager—none of them “bad,” all trying to help. We look at referred pain (the ache isn’t always the source), “turned-off” muscles and reactivation, migraines as vascular/nerve miscommunications, and why babies sometimes benefit from ultra-gentle neck work after birth. Dr. Hall offers practical ways to support your inner and outer systems—posture, daily movement, posterior-chain strength—so your parts (physical and psychological) can coordinate instead of compete. We close with wholeness as bio-psycho-social-spiritual integration: welcoming every part and giving each a job that truly serves.
