FAQ’s
How Does Chiropractic Care Help With ADHD and Autism?
Our care focuses on the nervous system—the control center for emotions, focus, and behavior. When stress builds up in the nervous system, it can cause hyperactivity, impulsivity, and sensory overwhelm. Our gentle chiropractic care can help reset and regulate the nervous system, leading to calmer, more balanced behaviors. We frequently hold workshops on this topic – contact us for more information!
Will This Replace My Child's Medication?
Many families seek chiropractic care as a natural alternative to medication. While every child is different, our goal is to improve nervous system function so that your child needs fewer interventions, not more. Many parents find their child can reduce or even eliminate medication under the guidance of their healthcare provider.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Kids?
Yes! Our adjustments are gentle, frequently using no more pressure than you’d use to check the ripeness of an avocado. We specialize in pediatric care and create a fun, stress-free experience for your child.
How Soon Will We See Results?
Every child is different, but many parents notice positive changes within the first few weeks of care. Improvements in sleep and digestion often happen first, with long-term benefits building over time.
What Makes Your Approach Different From Other Pediatric Chiropractors?
We specialize in neurologically focused chiropractic care, which means we go beyond the spine and look at how the brain and body communicate. Our advanced scanning technology helps us pinpoint the root cause of your child’s struggles. Our care plans are designed to make real neurological changes, not just a temporary bandage.
Will My Child Need Adjustments Forever?
Our goal is to create lasting change, not just temporary relief. While some families choose to continue care for wellness and maintenance, our focus is on long-term nervous system health.
What If My Child is Scared of Doctors or Adjustments?
Our office is kid-friendly, fun, and built for sensory-sensitive children. Our office has no white coats, fluorescent lights, scary medical equipment, or pain. We use a gentle, hands-on approach to ensure your child feels safe and comfortable. Trust is important to this process and we take the time to build it from the first interaction with every child and family!
Does Insurance Cover it?
Unfortunately no. Health insurance considers subluxation-focused care not “medically necessary” because it is not a medical treatment. Medical care focuses on the treatment of symptoms, whereas subluxation-centered chiropractic is a cause-based approach focused on actual long-term healing and restoration. However, many HSA and Flex-type accounts work perfectly for this type of care and our team will work with you in every way in this department!
Can Chiropractic Care Help With Sleep and Digestion?
Yes! Since the nervous system controls sleep patterns and digestion, many parents notice improvements in these areas as their child’s nervous system becomes more balanced.
