In this episode…

Pain, pressure, and burnout have a way of sneaking into our lives until they demand attention. What if healing wasn’t just about fixing what hurts, but restoring how the whole person functions? And what happens when faith, resilience, and health are no longer treated as separate lanes?

Dr. Kim Tran believes that true healing begins when the body, mind, and spirit are addressed together. Drawing on her experience as a holistic health practitioner, she explains that many people are taught to manage symptoms rather than understand the root causes. She shares how chiropractic care impacts the nervous system, influencing everything from digestion to emotional resilience, not just pain relief. 

In this episode of the Align & Abide podcast, Dr. Kim Tran is interviewed by Chad Franzen on Rise25 to discuss how to integrate faith, resilience, and holistic health into chiropractic care. They explore her personal journey into chiropractic, the role of the nervous system in whole-body healing, and why chiropractic goes far beyond pain management. Dr. Tran also talks about inner healing, trauma recovery, and helping patients reach their God-given potential.

Quotable Moments:

  • “What people don’t realize is they think chiropractic is just for pain.”
  • “They don’t realize that less than 10% of your nerves go to pain.”
  • “There’s nothing else I want to do than help other people.”
  • “I want to help people recognize there’s so many other ways to overcome those things.”
  • “Your nervous system controls everything in your body, right?”

Action Steps:

  1. Address health from a whole-person perspective: Focusing on the nervous system, lifestyle, and emotional well-being supports deeper, longer-lasting healing.
  2. Seek care before pain becomes severe: Early intervention can prevent minor imbalances from developing into chronic health issues.
  3. Reduce stress on the nervous system daily: Lowering physical and emotional stress helps the body heal the way it was designed to function.
  4. Integrate faith into personal wellness practices: Spiritual alignment can strengthen resilience, purpose, and overall mental and emotional health.
  5. Commit to consistent care, not quick fixes: Long-term health improvements require regular support rather than symptom-based, temporary solutions.
