While traditional medicine relies primarily on symptoms and looks for obvious pathology on standard exams like blood work, MRIs, and EEGs, we use an incredible piece of technology called the INSiGHT Scans that accurately assesses the health and function of the Central Nervous System. 🧠 Why is the Central Nervous System so important? Think of It as the ‘Air Traffic Control’ 🛩️ for the entire human experience! 💥 Dr. Bruce Lipton puts it this way: “The function of the nervous system is to perceive the environment and coordinate the function of all other cells.” Kind of a big deal. 🤓 That means that while you’ve probably invested quite a bit of time, energy, and resources into trying to get your child’s gut health, immune system, and motor tone (PT, OT, Speech Therapy, etc.) functioning the best you can – your current provider team 🧑‍⚕️ may have overlooked the one common thread that ties them all together – the nervous system. 🧠 To learn more about this awesome technology that we use here at SLC to assess your nervous system: https://pxdocs.com/article/insight-scans/

Dysautonomia is a disorder of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which controls involuntary functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and temperature regulation. 🌡️ This condition disrupts the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the ANS, leading to a wide range of symptoms affecting multiple organ systems. The nervous system 🧠 plays a central role in dysautonomia, as it is responsible for regulating the ANS. Dysfunction in the nervous system can result in dysautonomia, causing symptoms such as lightheadedness, fainting, heart palpitations, gastrointestinal issues, and abnormal sweating patterns. Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic may offer relief for individuals with dysautonomia by addressing underlying nervous system dysfunction. ❌ Chiropractic adjustments aim to help the autonomic nervous system return to balance and get the body out of stress so that it can properly manage all functions. These tailored approaches aim to optimize nervous system function and promote overall health and well-being in individuals with dysautonomia.

Myths about chiropractic care 🙅🏼‍♂️

Happy Friday from SLC! 😂😎

“Your child has a hard time focusing and paying attention.” or “Your child just won’t sit still or follow directions.” Whether you’ve heard it from your child’s teacher, baseball coach, tutor, or pediatrician, many parents tell us that they’ve been told this before. They’ve also been advised to seek help from medications right away. But what if there’s a drug-free answer that may be worth checking out? Maybe it’s not that your child is purposely being the class clown or interrupting the activity for the day. Maybe it has something to do with their nervous system and vagus nerve! 🧠 The vagus nerve is a critical component of the autonomic nervous system and plays a substantial role in regulating many functions, including behavior and the ability to calm down. 😌 The vagus nerve is involved in the body’s stress response and emotional regulation, which are often implicated in ADHD. The vagus nerve’s role in the parasympathetic nervous system, often referred to as the “rest and digest” system, involves promoting a state of relaxation and recovery. An adequately functioning vagus nerve can help regulate emotional responses, stress levels, and attention. 🎉 At Atone Chiropractic, we have found that a dysregulated autonomic nervous system, including impaired vagal tone (the activity of the vagus nerve), could contribute to these ADHD-related difficulties. Our doctors specialize in the nervous system and are able to test and see if your child’s vagus nerve needs a little bit of help! Interested in the technology we use to test this? Read about it in our bio and DM us to schedule! ♥️ #pxdocs // #pediatricchiropractic // #nervoussystem // #biohacking // #Vagusnerve // #ADHD// Dysregulated nervous system // Connection between vagus nerve and ADHD // ADHD test // Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Happy Valentine’s Day from all of us at SLC! We loved spending the day with you ❤️💌

As with most childhood health conditions today, low muscle tone and developmental delays have complex, multifactorial causes. There is rarely just one reason hypotonia in children develops. ⬇️ Some common contributing factors include birth trauma, including interventions like c-section delivery, forceps, or vacuum extraction. This is hard on our baby’s bodies physically. There are also prenatal factors at play such as exposure to any medications, maternal stress, or other toxins. Whatever the cause may be, these all lead to nervous system dysfunction. And the nervous system is the head honcho of all other systems including the neuromuscular system! So if our babies’ nervous systems are under a lot of stress, this can lead to low muscle tone.❗So how can we help them?! By addressing their nervous system first! 🧠 At SLC, our doctors are trained to find the stress that is stuck within the nervous system. With the focus being on optimizing neuromuscular tone, coordination, and function, our customized care plans help regulate the nervous system, reduce subluxation, decrease inflammation, and stimulate the vagus nerve. This leads to improved communication between the brain and muscles, enhancing motor tone and coordination naturally. This will help other therapies work even better! Do you have more questions about low muscle tone or the nervous system? Visit the link in our bio for resources or always feel free to DM our team!

Let’s take this one back to the basics! 📚 The Vagus Nerve plays a pivotal role in the development of babies 👶 and is vital for their overall health and well-being. This nerve begins forming early in the first trimester during fetal development and continues to mature throughout the pregnancy. As the longest and most complex cranial nerve, the Vagus Nerve intricately regulates various functions, from breathing and heart rate to digestion 💩 and immune responses. 🤧 One of its primary functions is its role in the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), 🧠 which governs automatic processes in the body. 🚘 The ANS branches into the Sympathetic Nervous System (fight or flight response) and the Parasympathetic Nervous System (rest and digest response), ensuring the baby's body can respond appropriately to different situations. But what if the Vagus Nerve undergoes stress or damage? It's more common than you might think! ⬇️ The leading contributor we observe at SLC causing this in babies is birth interventions. Inductions, epidurals, C-sections, forceps, and vacuum extractions are performed in the US for various reasons. Still, there's a lack of education regarding their effects on the nervous system, 🧠 particularly the Vagus Nerve. When the Vagus Nerve is impacted, the child gets stuck in stress, leading to prolonged time locked in "fight or flight." 🚀 This is why it is so important to have children checked by our doctors at SLC. Using CLA INSiGHT technology, understanding your child's story, and applying various neuro-tonal techniques, our team can assess the Vagus Nerve and evaluate its function! Feel free to DM us to schedule an appointment for your child today!

Encouraging tummy time for your baby is not just about giving them a different perspective, ➡️ it's a fundamental step in development milestones, especially for those dealing with torticollis and plagiocephaly. 👏 But there’s more! During tummy time, our babies develop intricate connections within their nervous system. So why is tummy time a struggle for so many babies who present with torticollis and plagiocephaly? 🤷 Tummy time can be a great home tool for babies who have torticollis and plagiocephaly. This position can help distribute pressure on the skull. Moreover, active play and interaction during tummy time contribute not only to physical strength and motor skills but also to cognitive development and the formation of connections in the brain. If your child is struggling with tummy time, plagiocephaly, or torticollis, there may be a very important step that’s missing: nervous system regulation. 🧠 The nervous system controls all of our baby’s head and neck muscles. During birth, stress can play a major role in creating tension within the nervous system, which causes these muscles to favor one side or not function properly! This is why neurologically-focused pediatric chiropractic is an essential first step in helping the body conquer torticollis and plagiocephaly. Once our doctors start these specific and gentle pediatric chiropractic adjustments, the nervous system will calm, relax, and restore function to the body, helping tummy time become an easier skill! 🎉 If you love this content share it with a friend!

As we scroll Instagram and search Google, we’re always hearing more and more about the nervous system! 🧠 But is it really that important to have a healthy one?! Well, let’s see! It’s impossible to list every function that the nervous system regulates because there are THOUSANDS!!! And science hasn’t even tapped into all that the human body and nervous system can do. BUT we can chat about the ones that you see in this reel! 👏 The nervous system is the body's control center, regulating and coordinating all physiological processes. When it functions optimally, it contributes to a well-functioning mind and body! The nervous system is the link between the immune system and sleep quality. Without a regulated nervous system, chances are that it’s harder to fight off those icky bugs or get a good night's sleep! 😴 The nervous system also influences emotional and mental health. An imbalanced system can contribute to conditions like anxiety, depression, and mood disorders! It also plays a role in how adaptable we are to stress! Have you heard of “fight-or-flight” or “rest-and-digest”?! These are terms that explain two sides of the nervous system. In babies, a regulated nervous system is crucial for healthy development, both neurologically and emotionally. It sets a foundation for milestones, learning, behavior, and social interactions. And let’s not forget digestion, physical coordination, and cognitive development! 👏 If you ask us, all of these functions are VERY important!

Are you noticing some speech struggles going on with your child? Or has their teacher or pediatrician mentioned anything?? 🤷 Well, you’re in the right place! Let's chat about childhood speech delays. Simply put, speech delays are struggles that add a few twists to the process of speech development, making it a bit tricky for your child's brain and nervous system to coordinate the intricate movements needed for effective speech. 💬 No need to stress, though! We're here to share knowledge and support to help your little one along the way. Chances are, you’ve been advised to see a speech provider or are on the speech-language therapy path already, working with fantastic speech-language pathologists (SLPs) dedicated to those small gains that make a big difference in your child's life. 👏 We get it! 😣 Sometimes you might feel there's more that can be done. Perhaps your child's nervous system needs a little jump start when coordinating with the speech centers of the brain. This is where Neurologically-Focused Pediatric Chiropractic care enters the equation; an approach that can dig into the root causes of speech delays. While traditional methods find ways to navigate around the challenges, our chiropractic approach at SLC aims to uncover the underlying factors. 🔍 Step one? Our trained pediatric chiropractors will evaluate your child to see if subluxation, or stress, is a part of the story. Your child's history and neurological stress scans can give us valuable insights into whether subluxation and dysautonomia are contributing to a speech delay.

WE LOVE BABIES!!!!!! 👶🏻🍼But what we love even more is when parents get their nervous system adjusted soon after birth! The birth process can be very stressful on baby, especially when interventions such as forceps, vacuum, and C-section are necessary. These can all do significant damage to the Vagus Nerve, which in turn does not allow proper function to be administered to the baby’s Nervous System. 🧠 Due to this, many babies are stuck in a fight or flight state, unable to properly rest and focus on growth. 😴All of these reasons are why it’s important to get your baby checked by our pediatric chiropractors shortly after birth! The sooner the better!! 🩵 👏🏼#pediatricchiro #kids #infants #baby #birth
