Spizzerinctum! The Spark of Life

What comes to mind when you hear the word energy? For many of us, it’s that mid-afternoon slump where we think, “I could really use another coffee.” But true energy is so much more than avoiding fatigue. It’s the very spark that powers your body from the inside out — fueling every heartbeat, every step, every breath, and every thought.

At Woodbury Spine Wellness Center, we love the word Spizzerinctum. Chiropractors use it to describe the life force within us all — that inner spark that helps our bodies heal, adapt, and thrive. When your energy is flowing, you feel vibrant, alive, and unstoppable. When it’s leaking, everything feels harder than it should.

WHERE DO WE LOSE ENERGY? It’s not just about getting enough sleep (though that’s important!). Energy leaks often come from everyday stressors that pile up on the body and nervous system:

• Spinal misalignments that interfere with the body’s ability to communicate and function at 100%.

• Stress overload — physical, chemical, or emotional — that keeps us running on empty.

• Lack of movement, which stiffens joints, weakens muscles, and slows circulation.

• Poor nutrition, especially the hidden sugars that sneak into so many foods and rob our cells of vitality.

Over time, these leaks drain your reserves and leave you feeling like you’re always playing catch-up. HOW DO WE PLUG THE LEAKS? Here’s the good news — energy leaks can be fixed!

• Chiropractic adjustments restore alignment, freeing up the nervous system so your body can operate at its best. Think of it like clearing interference from your body’s power source.

• Mobility and movement help lengthen and strengthen muscles, improve circulation, and unlock the simple truth: energy lives in motion. When your body moves better, everything works better.

• Mindful nutrition choices fuel your body with the building blocks it needs, rather than depleting it with foods that drain energy and increase inflammation.

When you take care of your spine, your muscles, and your fuel, you set the stage for more energy in every area of life.

A Birthday Worth Celebrating!!

This month, we’re celebrating two big birthdays — chiropractic’s birthday on September 18th, and Woodbury Spine’s 15th year of serving our community. For over a century, chiropractic has been igniting energy from the inside out, and we’re honored to carry on that mission today with thousands of patients each year.

ONE MORE WAY TO BOOST ENERGY We can’t talk about energy without mentioning sugar. While it gives a quick “buzz,” sugar is one of the biggest hidden drains on our energy, leaving us more tired, inflamed, and sluggish than before.

That’s why we’re hosting a 21-Day Sugar Detox beginning October 6th, with a free Info Night on September 22nd. Whether you’re a patient or not, you’re invited to learn how eliminating sugar can reset your energy and help you feel your best. Because at the end of the day, energy isn’t about doing more — it’s about living life fully, with the spark you were designed to have. Whether you’re new to our clinic or it’s been a while since your last visit, now is the perfect time to plug back in. Start with a Wellness Score to measure where your energy is today, then explore the many ways we can help you recharge — from chiropractic and massage to nutrition, mobility, and SoftWave therapy. Every service we offer is designed to support your body’s natural energy and resilience. This September, as we celebrate birthdays and Spizzerinctum, let’s also celebrate your health — because the best gift you can give yourself is more energy to live the life you love.
