A study of 100 volunteers showed improved brain function in 4 tested areas including greater "brain relaxation" after a Chiropractic adjustment as measured by EEG!
 
Is it no wonder that kids perform better in school and their parents credit their Chiropractic adjustments?

Here's a letter that I think really sums up how Chiropractic can help children. I had tears in my eyes reading this. Thank you for sharing with us, Josh.


Hi.  My name is Joshua Janes and Dr. Andy has adjusted me since I was a kid.  I had a hard time in school.  I couldn't sit still, focus on what was being taught or read my assignments. I felt "not so smart" and got in trouble for being the "class clown" a lot.  When my mom learned about Chiropractic I was about 12. I had been diagnosed with ADHD with the high end of hyper.  I struggled to learn and not get into trouble.  I would read the same paragraph over and over and get mad because I couldn't remember what I had just read.  My mom tried to help with routines and not letting me eat junk or have caffeine or anything with red dye in it.  I was never put on medication like my other friends and I'm glad because they all went through some tough times in life stemming from that. After my first adjustment I didn't feel any different but after getting adjusted for almost a year I asked my mom to buy me a book.  She started to cry because I had never asked to read anything I didn't have to.  I started to read!  I read the whole Goose Bump series in a few weeks.  I started to read Time magazine and everything I could get my hands on.  In my early twenties I started writing books for fun.  Today, I do analytical research for a large company in Scotland.  I am grateful for Dr. Andy's adjustments and how they have changed my life.
Sincerely,
Josh

It’s like he isn’t even listening.”

“She knows it in class but can’t do it on tests.”

“Would you stop shaking your leg for five minutes.”

“I have to take the tags off the back of all his shirts.”

“I want to help her more but I don’t know how.”

For many parents phrases like these are uttered or at least thought of too often in any given week.

Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)

Sensory processing disorder (SPD) is a growing problem where the child has normal vision and hearing but can not properly process the information. This problem can stand alone or be combined with and exacerbate learning disorders, emotional or behavioral problems, ADD, ADHD, Asperger’s, and autistic spectral disorders.

How Can Chiropractic Help?

Chiropractic can improve the brain’s processing of the senses: sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. Each Chiropractic adjustment (treatment) also improves  proprioception and vestibular function. These two often overlooked senses allow for the body’s sense of position, motion, balance, coordination and more. Improved sensory processing often results in better school achievement, social interaction, self-esteem, improved sleep, well-being and lower stress for the whole family.
