Welcome to my “Local Highlights” Blog! As a doula, an amazing part of my job is to not only provide my clients with the information needed for them to make informed decisions, but to connect them with professionals with the skills and knowledge to make those decisions a reality. If you have taken any of my classes, you will know that building a fully supportive birth team is at the core of my practice. There are so many, extremely unique, and wonderful people filled with passion for every step of your birth journey, right here in the KC Metro Area! Today, I would like to introduce you to one of them, Dr. Jess Bohlke, owner and doctor of Journey Chiropractic!

Dr. Jess began to educate herself about natural healing and healthy living, developing a deep empathy for others on their own health journeys. When describing her experience, Dr. Jess recalls, “When I finally tapped into my own intuition and innate intelligence about what my body needed and not what the doctors said I needed, I was healed of the rare and aggressive ovarian cancer. There is something inside of us that no doctor could ever tap into. A wisdom that surpasses all understanding.”

Dr. Jess describes her work as gentle, putting no more pressure on the patient’s body than one would put on a tomato or avocado to check it’s ripeness in the grocery store. “The technique I use in gentle enough for a newborn baby in the hospital and effective enough for the most complex of cases.” Journey Chiropractic also offers other services, such as needless acupuncture, x-rays, and intersegmental traction.

Learn more about Dr. Jess on her website or by joining KCWM at our next Enrichment Workshop, August 20th!

As always, thank you for reading and God Bless!
