Get Your Life Back on Track with Matrix Repatterning

Symptoms from concussion and other unresolved injuries can linger for months or even years leaving people with the feeling that they are stuck on the sidelines while everyone else is engaging in the game of life. Matrix Repatterning may be the appropriate next step in your healing journey. 

Dr. Clare Larkin, DC, CMRP and founder of Larkin Integrative Healthcare, became certified in Matrix Repatterning after witnessing many people not responding to conventional and alternative care. “Matrix Repatterning is the only therapy I have found that helps those people who have fallen through the cracks of the healthcare system. It is a gentle, yet deep therapy that can have remarkable results.” This proven, science-based, hands-on therapy restores normal functioning to the bones and internal structures of the skull. Many patients report improvement in headaches, depression, brain fog, energy, balance, vision, hearing and sleep.

For those interested in learning more about this unique therapy, Dr. Larkin is offering free tele-consults in March and April to see if Matrix Repatterning is appropriate for your condition.

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
