According to the CDC, 1 in 36 children are now diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, while ADHD diagnoses increased by approximately 1 million between 2016 and 2022. These staggering statistics highlight the rapid rise in life-altering neurodevelopmental conditions affecting children's quality of life. While genetics and lifestyle factors play a role, clinical evidence increasingly points to the central nervous system, specifically the vagus nerve, as a root cause agent behind this alarming trend.
The vagus nerve serves as an important communication pathway between the brain and organs that are vital for health and development, especially the heart and lungs, the gut, the immune system, motor tone and coordination, the endocrine system, and our social-emotional regulation centers.
Nicknamed "The Wandering Nerve" and "The Great Protector" this essential nerve coordinates the activation of the Parasympathetic Nervous System, which is responsible for the "rest, regulate, and digest" mode, initiating the body's health restoration and rebuilding capacities.
The Vagus Nerve branches from the brainstem and upper neck region, and makes its way down through the neck and all the way deep into the thorax and abdomen, which is what makes it so susceptible to to physical injury of the neck during the birth process, as well as inflammation in the gut and digestive system.
Vagus Nerve Dysfunction can have a significant impact on kids' health, disrupting the brain's communication with key organ systems and basic health functions. This leads to disruptions within digestive motility, absorption, and elimination and can contribute to things like colic, constipation, eczema, and more… along with suppressing immune system function and leaving the body constantly stuck in a pro-inflammatory state, leaving a child constantly sick and congested.
We also now know that this dysfunction alters motor tone and coordination, endocrine function and the balance of neurotransmitters, and thus our children's social and emotional regulation suffers and can leave them constantly wound up, stressed out, anxious, misbehaving, and so much more.
Stress hormones and constant tension from a high stress, complicated pregnancy can cause an increase in stress and inflammation in babies and young children that can last for years down the road.
Birth trauma caused by interventions can physically strain the delicate brainstem and neck region housing the vagus nerve, contributing to dysfunction early on.
Lastly, the vagus nerve is very sensitive to things like frequent antibiotics, toxic exposures, and nutrition gaps that can exhaust nervous system reserves, creating a cumulative burden that further feeds the dysfunction.
Symptoms seen in common childhood conditions like colic, reflux, chronic ear infections, eczema, constipation, and SPD all suggest impaired vagus nerve function.
Thankfully, solutions exist to map what's called Vagal Tone accurately while also helping to provide a targeted and personalized plan to stimulate and support your child's vagus nerve. At Innate Family Chiropractic we use an incredible piece of technology called Heart Rate Variability, or HRV, which helps us find out whether or not your child's Vagus Nerve is functioning properly.
This test can be run in as little as 3 minutes and helps us build an exact blueprint for your child's Neurological Restoration Care Plan, helping us determine exactly what frequency and type of chiropractic adjustments are needed to help stimulate and activate your child's Vagus Nerve and Parasympathetic Nervous System, getting things back online and healing naturally once again!
While there are many natural ways to stimulate the Vagus Nerve such as deep breathing, meditation, being outside in nature, and addressing gut-immune inflammation issues, nothing provides as potent and direct repair and restoration of Vagus Nerve and Nervous System Dysfunction quite like Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Adjustments!
There is a vast difference between nervous system and vagus nerve support, and actual neurological healing. In order to fully address vagus nerve dysfunction and the deeper root causes of chronic health challenges in kids, we've got to get the Vagus Nerve fully back online with more potent and direct stimulation via these specialized adjustments and care plans!
