  • EP. 4: Is This Really Behavior… or Is It the Nervous System?
    Jul 3 2025

    Welcome to Motherhood: Aligned and Assigned! In today's episode, we're exploring the connection between behavior and chiropractic care in children. Many parents ask if behavior issues are just that, or if they stem from a dysregulated nervous system. We discuss the shame and guilt parents often feel, the complexities behind a child's response to commands, and how chiropractic care can help. From using EMG scans to identify noisy brain patterns to understanding how chiropractic adjustments can lead to improved behavior and overall wellbeing, we cover it all. Plus, we share real-life success stories from our practice and emphasize that changes come with time and consistency. Your child's behavior is not a reflection of your parenting; it's a call for a deeper understanding of their needs. Join us on this journey to help your family thrive—not just survive.
