Dr. Don MacDonald hosts Dr. Kate Finlayson on this episode of The Informed Chiropractor podcast, where she discusses her journey in chiropractic care with a focus on pediatric practice. Dr. Kate shares how she transitioned from nursing to chiropractic after discovering the profession through YouTube videos and osteopathic treatments. She graduated from Macquarie University in Sydney and began working in Gladstone, Queensland, a coastal town she describes as ideal for her love of nature and smaller communities. Starting her career during COVID-19 posed challenges, including border closures, but she adapted quickly. Mentored by Ally, a seasoned pediatric chiropractor, Dr. Kate embraced pediatric care, noting how adjusting infants leads to faster, life-changing results compared to adults. She completed a pediatric diplomate to deepen her expertise and help shape the health trajectories of the babies in her community. When Ally moved back to Perth, Dr. Kate took over the practice, managing a surge in patients and expanding services to a nearby town. The workload initially led to burnout, but attending a polyvagal theory seminar helped her recognize stress patterns and prioritize self-care through Pilates, dog walks, and breathwork. She also incorporates principles from the MacDonald Safety Corridor Protocol, like co-regulation and visceral techniques, into her adjustments to enhance patient outcomes. They closed the episode discussing plans to reconnect at an upcoming seminar in Sydney this June, underscoring the value of continuous learning and community in advancing chiropractic care. 0:00 – 14:30: Dr. Kate Finlayson's Journey into Chiropractic 14:30 – 14:48: Discovering Chiropractic and Early Career 14:48 – 15:14: Transition to Practice and Pediatric Focus 15:14 – 15:30: Pediatric Training and Practice Challenges 15:30 – 18:30: Impact of Polyvagal Theory on Practice 18:30- 21:32: Balancing Practice and Personal Life 21:32 - 25:00: Inspiration and Future Goals 21:47 - 23:46: Final Thoughts 🔔 Ready to transform your chiropractic skills?

When Chiropractic Care Goes Beyond Humans: Healing Horses, Dogs, and Communities || Dr. Emir Lervy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phyXgPOi6s4
On today’s episode of the Informed Chiropractor podcast, Dr. Don MacDonald is joined by Dr. Emir, a Northern Ireland chiropractor who shares her journey from growing up in a family deeply rooted in holistic health to establishing her practice in 2008. Inspired by her mother’s recovery from sciatica and her brother’s improved sleep through chiropractic care, she pursued studies at the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic. Initially trained in a mechanistic approach, she transitioned to a vitalistic philosophy after rediscovering foundational texts like the “Green Books” and attending seminars emphasizing nervous system resilience. Her practice now blends human care with animal chiropractic, where she adjusts dogs and horses, observing their instinctive post-adjustment responses like yawning and relaxation. Dr. Emir’s work extends beyond her clinic through community initiatives, such as monthly visits to a local school to check and adjust teachers. She integrates polyvagal theory to help patients recognize stress signals such as tense shoulders and irritability, and teaches techniques like diaphragmatic breathing to build resilience. Emphasizing the importance of presence, she balances clinical work with outdoor activities and mindfulness, advocating for small, daily practices to counteract being overwhelmed. For new chiropractors, she advises confidence, trusting one’s skills, and avoiding perfectionism, urging practitioners to prioritize patient connection over rigid protocols. 0:00 – 6:16: Background of Dr. Emir 6:16 – 6:31: Early Influences and Career Path 6:31 – 8:31: Transition into Practice & Learning Journey 8:31 – 12:00: Chiropractic Techniques and Animal Adjustment 12:00 – 16:48: Polyvagal Theory & Practical Application 16:48 - 21:47: Advise For New Chiropractors 21:47 - 23:46: Final Thoughts 🔔 Ready to transform your chiropractic skills?
