When someone isn’t feeling well or keeps catching every little bug that goes around, it’s easy to assume “my immune system is weak.” But what most people don’t realize is that the immune system doesn’t operate on its own—it follows the lead of the nervous system.

Constipation is one of the most common digestive complaints for both teens and adults. Whether it shows up as infrequent bowel movements, bloating, cramping, or that uncomfortable “full” feeling that never quite goes away, it can take a toll on energy, sleep, focus, and overall well-being.

If your baby always looks to one side, fights tummy time, or has a flat spot developing on the back or side of their head, you're not alone. Torticollis and plagiocephaly are two of the most common infant concerns parents bring into our office — and they often show up together.

When adults talk about being tired, it often comes with a half-joking tone—“Yeah, I’m exhausted… isn’t everyone?” But the truth is, millions of adults are running on empty. Not because they’re staying up too late or drinking too much caffeine, but because their nervous system is carrying a stress load it was never meant to handle.

As the new year begins, it’s natural to feel hopeful about change. We set resolutions, organize planners, join gyms, and promise ourselves that this will be the year we finally feel our best. But before long, old patterns sneak back in…

Every parent knows the sound — that first sniffle, the deep cough that lingers, the sleepless nights that follow. Winter viruses like RSV, colds, and the flu can turn a cozy season into weeks of stress and worry.

If your child seems “off” but no one can quite explain why — they’re tired but can’t sleep, anxious but can’t calm down, or complain of stomach pain with no clear cause — dysautonomia may be part of the picture.

Thanksgiving is meant to be a time of gratitude, connection, and slowing down to enjoy the company of family and friends. But let’s be honest—more often than not, it comes with a fair share of stress.

When most parents hear the phrase birth trauma, they think of the “big” events—an emergency C-section, forceps, or vacuum extraction. And while those are certainly significant, the truth is that nearly every birth exerts some level of stress on a newborn’s nervous system.

When parents hear the term ADHD, they often think of restless behavior, poor focus, or emotional outbursts. It’s one of the most common childhood diagnoses, with nearly 10% of school-aged children receiving the label.

When most people start chiropractic care, it’s because something in their health isn’t working the way it should. Headaches, poor sleep, digestive struggles, focus issues, constant stress—the list goes on.

When a child struggles with focus, behavior, sleep, digestion, or emotional regulation, most parents understandably want relief as quickly as possible. But when it comes to neurological health, there’s no “instant fix.”

You may have heard of Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) from a teacher, therapist, or concerned family member—or maybe you’ve simply Googled “why does my child hate tags and loud noises?” Sensory Processing Disorder isn’t a buzzword or a trend. It’s a neurological challenge that affects how the brain receives, organizes, and responds to sensory input.

When it comes to your child’s health (or your own), symptoms are only the tip of the iceberg. Whether it’s anxiety, poor sleep, digestion issues, emotional outbursts, or developmental delays—these outward signs are often indicators of a deeper problem: nervous system dysregulation.

When the air turns crisp and the leaves start to change, so do our family rhythms. Fall is a season of transitions—new school routines, shifting sleep patterns, busy weekends, and more time indoors. While it’s one of the coziest times of year, it also brings fresh challenges to our health: immune stress, increased screen time, emotional dysregulation, and nervous system overload.

Being a parent in today’s world can feel like trying to pour from an empty cup. The pace is relentless—balancing work, home, kids’ schedules, emotional demands, and a constant stream of notifications. We often tell ourselves we’ll rest later, get help later, decompress later… but that “later” rarely comes.

It’s no secret that today’s teens are navigating an entirely different world than we did. Screens are everywhere — in their pockets, classrooms, bedrooms — and they’re rarely “off.” As a parent, it’s easy to feel like the only solution is to take the phone away.

When people—kids or adults—begin neurologically-focused chiropractic care, it’s common to see changes, sometimes big ones, in how their body feels and functions. At first, these changes can feel confusing or even concerning, almost like things are getting worse before they get better.

Healing isn’t always a straight line. If your child has made progress—only to suddenly stall or even take a step back—it can feel confusing and discouraging. But in the world of neurological development, this is often exactly what we expect.

You’ve stretched. Rested. Tried ice packs, heating pads, foam rollers, and maybe even swapped your mattress or desk chair. You’ve visited your primary doctor or maybe even a physical therapist. And still — the back pain, headaches, or old injury keeps flaring back up.
