How a Regulated Nervous System and Sleep for Kids

Do you ever feel like your kiddo is, go, go, go, and can never settle down?

Does your little one have a hard time getting to sleep and staying asleep?

Do you feel like they are restless even when asked to stay still?

These expressions can stem from an overactive nervous system and the body being stuck in a fight-or-flight state.

The good news is...

Chiropractic can help down-regulate their nervous system to allow their body to be in a state of EASE! Consistent chiropractic care can help your kiddo function on the parasympathetic side of their nervous system, also known as "rest and digest mode." When their nervous system is free from the stress of "fight-or-flight," they can quickly calm themselves and sleep even better!

Chiropractic may be the answer if you're seeking a medication-free way to help your kiddo regulate their busy brain!

Importance of Chiropractic Care From Birth

From Day One of Life: Chiropractic Care for Well-Being!

Are you wondering why chiropractic care from the start of life is so essential? It allows for incredible benefits to the brain and body that pave the way for future generations! ✨

Chiropractic care from birth allows for:

-Regulated Immunity: Chiropractic care supports your little one's immune system, helping them build resilience to illnesses. Optimizing nervous system function, chiropractic adjustments regulate their immune response to keep them healthy and strong.

Optimal Digestion: Whether it's battling reflux or constipation, chiropractic care can improve gut function. Enhancing nervous system communication supports optimal digestion. This provides relief and comfort for your little one.

Improved Behavior & Emotions: Chiropractic care isn't just physical – it extends to emotional well-being. Balanced nervous system function can contribute to behavior and emotional regulation through all stages of life!

Set the foundation for a life filled with vitality and balance by getting your little one checked by a pediatric and wellness-focused chiropractor. At Elevated Life Familly Chiropractic, we would love to serve you and your family!

Phases of Healing With Chiropractic

True Healing takes TIME and CONSISTENCY!

At Elevated Life Family Chiropractic, we are genuinely invested in your well-being and achieving your health goals. Consistency is the secret ingredient to success - progress thrives where consistency resides!

Imagine going to the gym just once a month. How much progress do you think you would accomplish? Realistically, how long does it take to SEE and FEEL results?

During your first phase of care, we are focusing on repairing and restoring. Your nervous system has been in a protective, stress state for quite some time. With time and repetition, we will focus on breaking down old patterns and creating new functional patterns that support ideal health and well-being!

During your second phase of care, we will continue to focus on improving your adaptability to overall stress. Now that your nervous system function is restored and you are no longer functioning in those chronic stress patterns, we want to keep it that way! Consistent adjustments will continue to help the body self-heal and self-regulate. This moves you towards TRUE health and prevents problems from occurring again!

Are you ready to free your ultimate potential? We are here for you to start your wellness journey!

Pelvic Pain During Pregnancy

Throughout pregnancy, the growing body tries to adapt to increased weight, changes in hormones, and the postural stressors that follow. These postural changes increase the risk of sacral/pelvic imbalance at any given time. The bones in the pelvis and the supportive network of ligaments, tendons, muscles, and associated nerves are all under constant pressure and change. The resulting torsion and inflammation of imbalanced muscles and ligaments may prevent the baby from comfortably assuming the best possible position for their birthing.

At Elevated Life Family Chiropractic, Dr. Randy is Webster Certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. The Webster technique is defined as:

A specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment for pelvic balance during pregnancy allow for optimal fetal positioning for an easier, safer birth. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation and/or SI Joint dysfunction. In so doing, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is improved.”

Prenatal chiropractic care is essential for optimal positioning during pregnancy, allowing the body to be in a state of ease for a safer and easier birth process.

Tips to Balance Hormones in Kids

Nurturing Happy, Healthy Kids & Teens! 🌿

As parents, our priority is fostering the well-being of our young ones and supporting their hormone balance during these transformative years.

At Elevated Life Family Chiropractic, our favorite ways to balance hormones in kids are:

πŸ₯¦ Healthy eating habits: Fuel their bodies with wholesome goodness! A balanced diet of fresh fruits, veggies, and whole grains is crucial in regulating hormones.

πŸ’€Adequate sleep: Quality sleep is a hormone's best friend! Ensure your kids get enough rest for their bodies to thrive and hormones to stay balanced.

πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Outdoor play: Encourage physical activity and outdoor fun to boost mood and keep hormones in check. Let them embrace the joy of movement! 🌳

☺️ Stress-free environment: Support them in handling stress with positivity. Practice mindfulness and relaxation techniques to keep hormones happy! πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸŒž

🌿 Embrace Nature: Avoid harmful chemicals by embracing natural and organic products. Let them grow in a chemical-free environment! 🌿🚫

🚰 Pure Water, Pure Health: Ensure clean, filtered water for their growing bodies - a simple step for hormone balance. πŸ’§πŸš°

Sensory Vs. Behavior

As parents, we know how unique and wonderful each child is! Their sensory experiences and behaviors shape how they navigate the world around them. 🌍

πŸ” Sensory: Kids take in the world through their senses – sights, sounds, touch, taste, and smells. Sensory processing plays a role in how they understand and react to stimuli. Some kids may be sensitive to sensations, while others seek them out for stimulation.

🎭 Behavior: Behaviors are the visible expressions of how kids respond to sensory experiences. These actions can be adaptive, showing their resilience, curiosity, and social skills. However, challenging behaviors might arise due to sensory processing differences, leading to meltdowns or difficulty focusing.

🧠 How Chiropractic Care Can Help: Chiropractic care optimizes the nervous system – the master communicator between the body and brain. By ensuring proper balance within the body, chiropractic adjustments improve sensory integration, supporting kids' ability to process and respond to sensory input more effectively.

🌱 When the nervous system functions optimally, children may experience improved focus, reduced stress, better sleep, and enhanced emotional regulation. This can pave the way for positive behaviors and overall well-being!

Proper Backpack Posture

πŸŽ’πŸ« Back-to-School Season is here!

Is your child's backpack ready for a comfortable school year? πŸ€” Carrying a heavy load can cause discomfort and strain on their neck and back, but we've got you covered with some helpful tips:

1️⃣ Size Matters: Find the perfect-sized backpack for your child - not too small, not too big - just suitable for ultimate comfort.

2️⃣ Padded Straps: Say goodbye to tension! Opt for backpacks with padded straps to ease the neck and upper back strain.

3️⃣ Adjust for Balance: Ensure adjustable straps keep the heaviest part of the bag centered on their back - a game-changer for comfort.

4️⃣ Two Straps are Cool: Ditch the one-shoulder look! Wearing both straps evenly distributes the weight and promotes proper posture.

5️⃣ Padded Perks: Choose a padded backpack for extended wear - style and comfort combined!

6️⃣ Waistline Hang: Keep it at the waist! Remember, the bag should not hang over 4 inches below the waistline.

If you're part of the Elevated Life Family Chiropractic family, bring your child's backpack in for a quick check-up! We'll make sure they're all set for a fantastic school year! πŸ“šβœ¨
