When most people think of chiropractic care, they think of back pain or neck issues—but neurologically based chiropractic goes far beyond that. This approach focuses on how the spine and nervous system are functioning as a whole. For children with ADHD, autism, sensory processing issues, and other developmental delays, supporting the nervous system can make a big difference.

The brain and body communicate through the nervous system. When there’s stress or misalignment in the spine—what chiropractors call a subluxation—it can interfere with this communication. Think of it like static on a phone call between the brain and body. Over time, this interference can affect behavior, focus, mood, sleep, digestion, and more.

Children with neurological challenges often already have an overwhelmed or dysregulated nervous system. This can show up as hyperactivity, sensory sensitivity, emotional outbursts, sleep troubles, or difficulty focusing. Chiropractic adjustments help to calm the nervous system by improving spinal alignment and reducing interference—allowing the brain and body to better communicate and regulate.

What’s unique about neurologically based chiropractic care is that we don’t just guess—we assess. Using scans and tools designed to measure how the nervous system is functioning, we get a clear picture of what’s going on inside your child’s body and create a care plan based on their specific needs.

While chiropractic care isn’t a cure for ADHD, autism, or other diagnoses, it can be an incredible tool to help regulate the nervous system, support developmental progress, and improve overall quality of life.

At the end of the day, we believe every child deserves a healthy, balanced nervous system—and every parent deserves support along the way.
