This week host Renae Johnson (they/them) and Guest Dr. Kindra Woo (they/them) explore why having a LGBTQ+ informed Chiropractor can improve your treatment outcomes. In this episode we answer: What is person centered care in Chiropractic treatment? Why would a queer and/or trans person have different chiropractic needs? Chiropractic care has a bad reputation - is it valid? How does gender-affirming surgery change my chiropractic needs? Why is my relationship to pain important to discuss with my chiropractic provider? Join us as we dive into Dr. Woo’s journey to finding their unique person centered treatment approach to chiropractic care for the LGBTQ+ community.
