Brilliant Wellness:
How To Flourish In Mind, Body & Soul
Written by Dr. Michael Dody DC and Heather Dody, Brilliant Wellness is the complete guide to the integrated approach that transforms the health of their patients every day — brain-based chiropractic care, QEEG neurofeedback, and functional nutrition working as one system, not three separate treatments.
Most providers master one lane. Dr. Dody and Heather wrote the book on mastering all three — and why the integration is what produces results that single-modality approaches simply can’t match. This is the philosophy behind everything Dody Chiropractic does.

Meet Dr. Michael Dody, DC
Dr. Dody’s path to chiropractic started the way many great callings do — personally. A sports injury that he recovered from through chiropractic care showed him what the body is capable of when the nervous system is supported properly. That experience didn’t just change his health; it changed the direction of his life.
After establishing his chiropractic practice in Littleton, Dr. Dody became increasingly curious about the brain — specifically, why some patients would plateau in their healing despite excellent spinal care. That curiosity led him to neurofeedback, and then to QEEG brain mapping, and eventually to over a decade of specialized clinical experience in brain-based care. He is one of a small number of practitioners in Colorado who holds expertise in both chiropractic and neurofeedback simultaneously.
His practice philosophy is simple: the brain and the spine are not separate systems. They are one nervous system, and treating both together — from the top down with neurofeedback and from the bottom up with brain-based chiropractic — produces results that neither approach achieves alone. This is the core insight behind Brilliant Wellness, the book he co-authored with Heather, and it is the foundation of every care plan at Dody Chiropractic Center for Wholeness.

Meet Heather Dody — Functional Nutritionist & Co-Author
I have been into health and wellness for as long as I can remember. After moving to Denver, I got a job at a natural wellness magazine. This is what started my path into the holistic aspect of health and wellness. Now, I seek out natural ways of doing things and clean eating for my family. The more I learn, the more I love it! Every day I am in awe at how amazing the human body truly is! If we give the body the proper tools and building blocks, the body can not only heal, but really flourish.
Chiropractic, nutrition, and neurofeedback have made such a difference in my life and are such a big part of it. As co-author of Brilliant Wellness and the clinic’s functional nutrition consultant, I run comprehensive blood work analysis that looks for patterns standard labs miss — revealing inflammatory markers, hormonal imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies that directly affect how patients feel and how well they respond to care. I want to help others see positive changes in their lives too!
For patients whose anxiety, depression, brain fog, or fatigue has a nutritional root, my work is often the piece that makes everything else click into place. Targeted supplementation using XYMOGEN pharmaceutical-grade products, personalized dietary protocols, and follow-up blood work to confirm progress — this is functional nutrition done rigorously.

I moved here in October 2022 from Omaha, Nebraska. My passion has always been to help people, and my infatuation has always been with human anatomy, so Dody Chiropractic is essentially my sweet spot!
As a four-year collegiate softball player and Exercise Science major, I am no stranger to mental, physical, and emotional stress. Since beginning work as a chiropractic assistant for Dr. Dody and getting regular chiropractic adjustments, I have noticed significant changes not only in the function of my various sports injuries but also in my overall mood, mobility, and thought processing.
I am a fanatic about the rejuvenating properties of the outdoors and believe that the human body is far more intelligent than we give it credit for. Healing, in any aspect, doesn’t need to be as hard as we’ve made it seem.
The Brilliant Wellness Philosophy: Brain, Body, Nutrition as One
The insight behind Brilliant Wellness — and behind everything Dody Chiropractic does — is that the brain, the spine, and the body’s metabolic systems are not separate departments. They are one integrated system, and dysfunction in any one part affects the others. This is why:
- Patients with anxiety often carry it in their nervous system from the cervical spine up — not just in their thoughts
- Kids with ADHD who plateau on neurofeedback often have nutritional patterns (blood sugar, inflammatory load) that are interfering with the brain’s ability to regulate itself
- Adults with chronic pain often have a neurological component that spinal adjustments alone can’t fully address — because the brain’s pain processing patterns have become self-reinforcing
By bringing all three modalities — QEEG-guided neurofeedback, brain-based chiropractic, and functional nutrition — under one roof and one integrated plan, Dody Chiropractic produces outcomes that single-modality practices can’t replicate. That’s not marketing. That’s the framework Dr. Dody and Heather spent years developing, and then put in a book.
