2024-05-21

“We’re going from a standpoint of structure and pain to more function and dysfunction, which is already a huge leap forward when it comes to chiropractic and really all healthcare,” says Dr. Tim Zittle, chiropractor and founder of TreeHive, which offers nervous system-based chiropractics. Having worked in both physical therapy and chiropractics, two worlds which were long at odds with each other, he draws from both to offer clients a more comprehensive and faster way to heal.

Stress is the greatest threat to our health, Dr. Tim says. He and Dr. Andrew discuss the benefits of cold exposure, laughter, meditation and pure silence. When we “should” ourselves, Dr. Tim explains, we find ourselves falling short of an ideal blueprint, and he explains how to change your mindset without settling for less than you deserve.

Join the discussion to hear Dr. Tim reveal the two elements every human needs in life to thrive—and that also inspired the name TreeHive—and the power of proper communication to change the world.

Quotes

• “A computer needs parts…it needs power or electricity, and it needs information—it needs an operating system. And when we look at the human body, it needs those same three things: parts, it needs power and fuel, and it needs information. And what we’re really good at in our current healthcare society is we’re really good at parts.” (11:49 | Dr. Tim Zittle)

• “It showed me how much of the body compensates for the real issue. And so often we’re going straight to these points of compensation, where we can feel the most pain and we’re trying to cover up the issue without seeing this is the chain reaction, and if we just went and fixed the source, that chain reaction will fix itself and will go away when it doesn’t need to be there anymore.” (17:56 | Dr. Tim Zittle)

• “We’ve really lost the art of being able to sit in silence and just appreciate the silence and the moment for what it is.” (35:52 | Dr. Tim Zittle)

• “Most often, when I hear someone use the word ‘should,’ it means there’s a difference between this blueprint of what they believe life needs to look like and what they’re actually experiencing.” (57:45 | Dr. Tim Zittle)
